And the atmosphere is fun no matter what time of the day it is. My only complaint is that they switched from the traditional racking system, to the string sytem and because of that, the pins don't fall in a natural way. It also makes it nearly impossible to hit a split shot.

All around a pretty good experience, thanks.

Had a great time here last weekend, good food and drinks. The bowling was pretty expensive and the…read morelanes didn't have much oil, so it's not a great place for a hook bowler. Have to make some adjustments. But I think they cater to the casual bowlers and families making it a fun time for a group of friends. They have a downstairs bar, a small arcade, and about 12 lanes. Upstairs are a few more lanes and what appears to be a private party area. Would probably be a good time! Plenty of tvs that were showing playoff football, and a good playlist that many were jamming to. We got the Spanish tots and Caesar salads. The salads come with mini grilled cheese croutons, which is what sold us, but they weren't as exciting as I'd hoped. The tits were fantastic with peppers and onions and a nice dipping sauce. We got lucky with street parking right outside, YMMV!

Second game the game didn't record the score correctly. This place is ran by a bunch of kids so they are pretty much hanging out the whole time. The bartender went on break from 11:30 -12:30 for some odd reason. I stood at the front desk trying to get help for 10 min and i walked over to the door and all the employees were hanging out goofing off. They called security on me and told me the manager was gone and no one could help me. Place is really cool but sucks it's poorly managed. I can see why it has low stars

The service for mechanic being available is reasonable on this busy Saturday. Seems it can be an…read moreinteresting but tiring job too. Thank you for doing it! There are new items advertised that I really wanted but the worker I spoke with didn't know how to make them, they only allow orders on the kiosk, and the kiosk didn't have the new items. I tried to tell the service desk about the missing items so that the food workers can just simply say if this location doesn't offer the new items yet rather than tell me to keep looking at the kiosk and rather than have a mini physical billboard showing. One of the workers assumed I didn't want to wait in line and I wasn't trying to order food at the game desk. I was just trying to let someone else know besides the one food worker I spoke with because the food worker didn't have access to taking notes or calling someone up to make note of the issue or to even know to say that they did not have access to add to the menu electronically (whether that is actually true or not lol). There needs to be a better system for people who try to give honest feedback to help things run more smoothly for relative anomalies like this. This Round 1 is convenient and I can understand them selling out of a figure I wanted but some of this other stuff , especially with the notification I offered, could've been handled better. I like Round 1 more than Dave and Buster's but I like other Round 1s more than this one. It is less likely I stop at this one unless it is on my way enough. With the parking hassle, needing to know which one entrance is open because sadly the mall is not doing well, makes for a kinda shaky experience. Sincerely, an interested customer that is probably annoying for trying to calmly point out a few problems in-person in brief but then writes these annoying reviews lol

Special thank you to Lauren and Brianna for helping with months worth of planning. They always responded quickly to our questions, offering different packages to fit our group.

One perfect item that you can get someone for the holidays is access to an experience like a…read morebowling night, a meal at a restaurant, or tickets to an awesome concert. or, when it comes to Brooklyn Bowl, you can even get them an experience that involves all of the above. Like most Yelpers, I first officially came into contact with Brooklyn Bowl when Gabby hosted an incredible Elite Event that gave us full access to the food and downstairs bowling. Being one of the people to win tickets to the show upstairs that evening gave me a full preview of how impressive the music venue portion was. But as I gradually went to more shows here the more and more I started to appreciate it even though I was originally wrong about it not being a Ticket Master venue (and I covered many times how I feel about that Ticket Bastard overall). The downstairs bowling venue is comparable to the likes of North Bowl in NoLibs, and since its a Brooklyn-based venue, I appreciate the murals dedicated to Coney Island carnival vibes. The Blue Ribbon restaurant downstairs also ensures that it has some of the best music venue food out there with its fried chicken, french bread pizza, sliders, and then some! Concert options here have run the gamut between old-school hip-hop, heavy metal, punk rock, indie folk, goth industrial, foreign electronic, tribute bands, and then some ensuring that it has the best variety of concerts to check out. The upstairs bar carries on the Coney Island carnival theming and you can even splurge on a private group ticket where you and your friends can share a bowling lane while you wait for bands to come on. But when I saw Gogol Bordello and Wolfmother I just enjoyed wandering among the crowd and had no problem finding a spot toward the front. With shows like White Denim, KMFDM, Tinashe, and Matisyahu on the calendar there's plenty of reason to look ahead to shows in 2024 here.

I went to Brooklyn Bowl for the CupcakKe concert and unfortunately had a very frustrating…read moreexperience. I understand why venues have ID policies, and I made a real effort to follow them. I initially had a photo of my valid driver's license, but when that wasn't accepted, I went back home (about 15 minutes away) to get another form of ID. Before doing that, I called the venue to make sure I brought something acceptable. I was told that a birth certificate would be fine as long as it showed my date of birth. Trusting that information, I rushed back with it so I wouldn't miss the show. When I returned, security told me it was not acceptable. Trying to resolve the situation, I called the venue again while I was there, and the person who answered told me they had not spoken to me and that a birth certificate is not accepted. When I asked if they could check or connect me with the person I had spoken to earlier, I was told no. At that point, there was nothing else I could do, and I ended up missing the event entirely despite making multiple good-faith efforts to comply. I also want to note that I did have other forms of ID I could have looked for, like my passport, but I relied on the information I was given over the phone and acted on that. To make things feel even more inconsistent, someone I was with who got inside told me a 16-year-old was able to enter, and I later saw a related post on TikTok. I can't personally verify that, but it added to the overall sense of unfairness. Overall, this felt like a serious breakdown in communication that cost me time, money, and the experience I paid for. I hope the venue can improve how staff communicate with guests so others don't go through something similar.

I wish I could give this place 5 stars but that's not happening! I like going here because there's…read moreplenty of parking and it has more room than North bowl. However the food is NOT worth a dime. I'm a foodie so that's important to me. My sister and I took my brother here for his bday and we spent over $300, how do you even spend that while bowling? I ordered two orders of the wings, two pizzas which taste like cardboard and an order of chicken tenders and tatter tots, it was like 9 tots, along with drinks(4 sodas) only three adult beverages...$268 like how???? Our server kept forgetting stuff like naps and straws, at one point I actually went to the bar to get napkins because I didn't want to feel like I was bothering her. Would I go back, of course, just don't eat anything from there unless you are desperate. Very clean and spacious. I will recommend if you go with a large group reserve two lanes.

Being located upstairs and off by ourselves was aHUGE help in keeping them all ion one place with no interaction with the other, older visitors downstairs, so thanks for that! Finally, I would like to note as we prepared to leave I saw Manager Arturo dash past our group and out the front door and I figured maybe his car was being ticketed....only to find out he had run ahead of us to help the students cross the intersection of Swanson Street and Oregon Avenue. It's things like this that endear me to a tour venue!

I went to Tilted with a group of about 12 adults. We did bowling, bumper cars, mini golf and the…read morearcade. We started with bowling. Lanes were not cheap and are very limited because more than 75% of the lanes are being repaired. They were even working on them on a Saturday night which was a little distractive while trying to focus on getting your ball down the lane. The lanes were unique and that the pins odd strings on them and that's how the pins were reset. My least favorite thing about the bowling alley was that when the balls were returned, they came at a high speed and if your fingers were in the wrong place or you were trying to get a ball at that time, you could really injure your fingers getting them pinched between balls. I included a video of how quickly the ball sneaks up and how concerning this would be especially if a child was playing. During our game, we ordered food and non alcoholic drink drinks from the bar. This is a BYOB so you can bring whatever you want to drink and they do have some mixers that you can buy if you don't bring your own. The food didn't get great reviews. There was one bartender and unfortunately she wasn't there about 50% of the time. There were often periods of time no one was behind the bar for periods long enough that I had to return for my turn to bowl. The video games are expensive. I bought a $20 card and was shocked to see how quickly it ran through. I personally didn't opt for the glow mini mini golf but that did look fun. My favorite activity was the bumper cars. Be warned, some of them do fully invert! I feel like Dave and Busters at Franklin Mills provides a better bowling arcade interaction and has better food and bar services. This place really felt designed to cater to children rather than adults and children. I didn't have a bad time but I would probably not return to this location.
