Welcome to Bowlero, the bowling alley of your dreams..... 40 lanes of pure pin-smashing glory and…read morean arcade big enough to lose your kids and your money in!! You can pack up to 6 people per lane, which is great until someone takes 10 minutes to line up every shot like it's the Olympics!! The catch? The food prices are so high you'll start considering whether nachos count as a financial investment. And no... you can't sneak in snacks unless you want to be tackled by a security guy named "Rick" who takes his job very seriously. Pro tip: Skip the snack robbery and hit up the unlimited bowling nights..... $20 from 8pm to midnight (shoes included!) on certain days. It's cheaper than dinner, and you can burn calories instead of eating them. Big lot, plenty of parking. Overall, always a great time here for some family bonding!!

At 20 lanes, this is not a massive bowling alley, but it is nice size. They keep it clean here,…read moreand I liked the more open seating it has at the lanes than some of the other alleys I go to. Pricing here was actually a bit better than most of the north county lanes, but the tradeoff for me, is the drive. According to Bowling alley rules, they have a bar, a game "room" with billiards and some video games, and of course the standard bowling alley food faire. Pizza, fries, Nachos, Chicken Strips, and a few salads.

The pizza was really good, and the service was great! After bowling, we headed into the game room and played some laser tag. Running around in the blacklight, hiding, ducking, and trying to line up the perfect shot had us all laughing. There were so many great hiding spots... until someone found just the right angle to tag you..haha! After that, we made our way to Escapology Escape Rooms for our reservation. The staff was kind and accommodating, the lobby was beautiful, very comfortable and inviting. The escape room itself was awesome. We played Mansion Murder. The presentation was the best I've experienced so far. It was challenging and super fun. We'll definitely be back to try another room and enjoy another great time. Good stuff!

There's little to no chance of that happening. It's a high energy place. Noisy, hectic, bustling, and it starts before you even get into the building. P n P shares its parking lot with another successful business, a coffee joint. Trying to find parking will be your first challenge. Dutch Brothers Coffee attempts to hijack a drive lane, by putting cones across it, in order route traffic into its take-out lines. Those poor cones, LoL. More than one vehicle has found their way over them. After you crunch a couple, you still have to slot your car somewhere. Go wide and walk. Inside, you'll meet your next hurdle. Trying to think! Expect a decibel level increase. Yep, it's loud. Between the bowling lanes, arcade, and offspring letting loose, the cacophony will move you. Now, will it move you out the door, or deeper into the bowels. Of course you'll go deeper. You're a glutton for this type of punishment. That's why you came in the first place, right? We attended a bowling party. It was in a private room with plenty of lanes, seating and food. Fantastic for the purpose. If you're thirsty, no problem. Through the adjoining door you'll find yourself in the bar. Expect to pay up for this convince. Pins n Pockets, when it comes to adult beverages, should be named, Pick yur Pockets. Outrageous drink prices! But if you drink before you come, you can get by. You're going to have fun. Quick Tip: Earplugs, and if you bring the kids, keep an eye on them.

You go here to redeem and each of us received a card. they had stickers to label the cards to tell them apart. We did the 18 hole miniature golf, go karts, and batting cages. The go kart has a separate toddler track near the batting cages. I actually got bored on the track because they have you out there for a good 10 minutes and all you do is go in circles. The batting cages were tricky based on the speed of the ball. Make sure you wear your helmets. Afterwards we played in the arcade. We ordered nachos for $3.75. They asked if we wanted jalapeños, we said on the side. Turns out, it was $1 charge for a small container! At least be honest and give heads up. I was wondering why nachos cost almost double. Plenty of seating everywhere. Private parties were happening all over.

We booked the package with two bowling games, and it included all the pizza, fries, and drinks the kids wanted within the hour and a half we reserved -- which made everything so easy and stress-free. After bowling, they all headed to the arcade and didn't want to leave. The space is fun, well organized, and perfect for groups. Most importantly, the staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit, which really made the experience even better. The kids are already asking when we can go back. Highly recommend for family outings, group hangouts, or celebrations!

One thing I just didn't like was there was literally sooooo many lanes open and they made us all squeeze in one side of the room. I mean I get it if they were busy but wtheck. They should've spread everyone apart to give us all some comfort. I get it for a restaurant if they have one server and we all have to be scrunched together but this made no sense. Another thing is that it is super expensive. The food is pretty expensive. I got one flat bread (not even a full pizza) and a large fries and two extra dips. It came out to almost $30. For two games and 2 pairs of shoes it costs almost $70. I guess that's how much bowling is nowadays. It does get busy during the night during weekends, but they do have a half off weekday special and isn't as busy during the mornings. Their arcade set up is pretty big I didn't even bother playing that bc who knows I would've spend another $50 on just games. The area kinda sketch, just beware of your surroundings.

We were greeted by energetic staff who asked us which package we would take. Naturally the 24 hole golf is included and decided on the escape room option. There are two options, one alien themed and the other pirate themed. We went with the Alien 51 themed one since the pirate one was in use. After a short video we had a 10 minute time limit to solve the puzzle. It's quite straight forward but quite a thinker at times. We were able to solve it with little time to spare. Me and my friend had a great time figuring it out and will gladly return to see the other offering down the line. Onto the main course, the mini golf! The courses are laid out in a way that guides you along each hour in order. Each course has its own theme ranging from a Dia de Los Muertos themed one to one with the great wall of China serving as a ramp. It was definitely a vibe and we had a blast. Some holes scale up in difficulty while others are quite straight forward. Overall this was a great time and excellent way to spend time together with a friend.

Man, I gotta say this place surprised me in a good way. Empire Bowl feels modern and clean, but at…read morethe same time it has that early 2000s bowling alley vibe that a lot of spots lost when they tried to get too fancy. The lights, arcade machines, and the whole setup just hit that sweet spot where it feels fun and nostalgic but still updated. The lanes were in great shape, scoring screens worked perfectly, and the arcade area actually had games people want to play. It's the kind of place where you can bowl a few games, grab some snacks, mess around in the arcade, and just hang out without it feeling dead or outdated. The atmosphere is lively without being chaotic. Honestly, this is what a 5-star bowling alley should be, good lanes, good lighting, fun arcade, decent food, and a vibe where you actually want to stay longer than one game. And I'm just gonna say it... way better than Bowlero. Bowlero feels overpriced and corporate, like they tried to turn bowling into a nightclub. Empire Bowl just keeps it real and actually focuses on making bowling fun. Definitely coming back.

Hence, it's easy to drop $70 and only end up with ONE small Kaito plushie from the Round One x Vocaloid collaboration. I realize not all are ready to commit to splurging, but get ready. Especially if you have KIDS! There's a feast to the recreational senses when you enter. I immediately gravitated towards the claw games. Note, the claw games are tough, I had to look up YouTube strategies and I still only ended up with a small prize from a smaller crane. I'll be back soon for Kaito's friends! If you're big on crossovers, Round One is constantly partnering with big names like Holo Live and other anime brands/titles. Sanrio is another major contributor, some plushies and prizes are even exclusive to Round One! I spotted cups, keychains, and much more. Now, Round One also offers bowling, karaoke, 99 cent ice cream, and arcade games. Thankfully, I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't bad at all. No one was hogging up the activities and people were civil. I thought the experience was quite calming and sobering. I spent 20-ish mins inside during a quick stop at the mall and I already want to go back... when I get paid! Fun ambiance!

I normally don't leave Yelp reviews, but I have to say this place has definitely changed…read more There weren't many employees walking around checking on customers or the claw machines -- mainly just the mechanics team. Usually there are instructions showing how items should be positioned in the machines, but this time there were only reference photos inside the machine. I asked an employee if they could reposition an item (something I've never had an issue with before), and the interaction felt pretty rude. They told me, "You shouldn't look at the reference photos, those are for employees." They attempted to reposition the item, but honestly just placed it back in basically the same spot, so it didn't help at all. It was disappointing because I used to enjoy coming to this location. I don't think I'll be returning since I don't want to feel like I'm inconveniencing staff just by asking for help.
