I can understand if it's a new place with new equipment, but this place isn't. Oh, and the people working at the front desk are cold and not very friendly if customer service matters to you. Just Ok.

We had a Groupon to be used for 4 people and shoe rental for 2 hours. As we arrived at this Bowlero…read morelocation, we were informed that we could not use the Groupon because it was "holiday season" and they weren't accepting Groupons. It's currently Spring break and we are locals to Sarasota. After reading the fine print and terms of service, none of this was written and this Bowlero location should have honored the Groupon. We contacted another location of Bowlero, in Bradenton, and they weren't very receptive of us calling them and said they would "absolutely" honor the Groupon. Unfortunately, we now have to drive 52 minutes north to another location so we can utilize a Groupon. At this point, we will not recommend the Gulf Gate location nor will we ever visit this location again. Very unfortunate.

Alrighty! Nina here to save the day and pick up the 3-star rating that this place currently has…read more First I'll say to everyone's dismay that you really have a slim pickings when it comes to the bowling alleys in the area. And as an out-of-towner coming from booshee Los Angeles, you can imagine that this makes me even pickier. We went there tonight and it was actually pretty packed, though I had no problem with the lot being packed because it has an iffy storefront in an iffy area, so I feel like this place would look even shadier if nobody was there. Tuesdays are $2 game night, so I gather that plus it being the holidays makes this place probably even busier than usual. When you first walk in nothing is really explained to you, and you have to figure out everything yourself. Get in line at the counter and ask what the wait is for BOTH sides: the V.I.B (in my opinion, the more fun cosmic bowling blacklight side) or the regular side. We realized there was a decent wait for the regular one, but not many people wanted to do cosmic bowling! Needless to say, we jumped at the opportunity. If your first question is "is it expensive?" the answer is YES. I haven't been to a bowling alley in years so I don't know the average for prices, but for 2 games and 3 people it was over $50 dollars. Seems like a jacked up price considering that we weren't in the best of areas. Also after you put your card in it asks for gratuity. We asked what the gratuity was for and they said it's a tip that goes to all of the workers. The way they did it though seemed like they were trying to pressure you into tipping them for really just doing their job, which is kind of off-putting. We ended up playing a few games and really enjoyed the V.I.B cosmic bowling area. They have nice coaches and seating areas, SIRIS XM radio playing throughout the alley, nice staff, and a bar. I also noticed that a lot of people on here put bad reviews regarding the food...what did ya'll expect!? It's a bowling alley! Personally, I would never ever ever get food at a bowling alley unless it was one of those high class ones like Lucky Strike in Philly or Highland Park Bowl in LA. I can't imagine the food quality being good nor the cleanliness, but that is just my opinion of ALL bowling alleys, not just this one. In conclusion: try this place out, don't feel pressured by the man at the front trying to get an extra tip out of you just for showing up, try cosmic bowling if you have the $$, feel free to get drinks, don't get food ever.

Really liked that this place wasn't price gouging like the "Bowlero's" & that is why we drove an extra 10 minutes to go to this place. Also, plenty of parking!

We are mildly infuriated after our visit. 1st- our group all…read morecame with the same coupon for buy $10 of game tickets get $10 free but many of us received different amount of tickets for paying the same price. This is inconsistent training in employees and was hopefully not sexiest. 2nd-at the go carts, the attendent was very aggressive and clearly not joyful and hot and sweaty in the Florida heat. It would be nice for faster carts and larger/wider track to pass slow ahh children who can't drive. A friend got whiplash after a kid who couldn't drive crashed into her. 3rd- when we went to redeem our points from our game cards in the gift shop after the employee scanned the game card multiple times he admitted that he lost the points and that he accidentally transferred them to someone else's card and so I could not receive any prices for the many 91 points that I won. Which was disappointing considering the price I paid and the employee did not seem that bothered about it 4th- after ordering a pizza it did not come out for 20 minutes and the bartender said that the waitress forgot to put in the order, poor waitress service but the food was good. 5th- after going to the go carts for the second time the employees attitudes did not improve and the safety googles did not fit all the faces. And we were screamed at for having boxed up food. The employees seem passionate about their job but also bored with the time. 6th- the Ambiance was nice but it would be more enjoyable to have a separate dining area away from the screaming loud children along with the loud noises and bright lights that come from the game area. We thank you for your time for reading this and we look forward to hearing back.

On our last visit, we kicked things off with a go-kart race (I'll admit, I'm a "safety-first" driver... came in last place ). Afterward, we grabbed some food and drinks, then hit the arcade where I redeemed myself by taking first place in Mario Kart. The atmosphere is lively, with families, kids, and couples all enjoying themselves. The food service can be a little slow due to the open seating setup, but our server was warm, attentive, and apologetic for the delay. Other perks? Plenty of parking and a wide range of activities to keep you entertained for hours. Whether it's a date night, family outing, or a casual hangout with friends.
