    Nice environment, something to do for everyone- bowing, arcade, pool, food and drinks Prices are higher side. Arcade games 3 points per game- $1 for 2 point Bowling $12-$13.99 per person + $5.99 for shoes

    Lots of great games!

    This is a nice, clean arcade & bowling alley. They've got games ranging from claw prize grabbers to video games, a pool room, and a lot of bowling lanes. Music was 90's pop, a good volume, not overwhelming. The reason I went w 4 instead of 5 stars is it is rather tough to bowl- it's pretty slippery, and the televisions reflect on the lanes so you cannot see the arrows. They do offer bumpers for kids and a ramp to roll the ball for little ones, so that's helpful for families. The waitress was excellent, food decent quality, we had the artichoke spinach dip, which was good. Overall Bowlero is a nice place and staff is very good, prices are not cheap but are comparable to most places like this, it's a fun date place!

    This is my go to bowling alley next to Southcenter. I realized that this place rather clean. The are plenty of lanes, billiards, arcade, and a decent bar area. The food options meet expectations and the servers are friendly.

    We had ourselves a company function for a local aerospace company, and our division was celebrating all the hard work our team had achieved... so the large group of us came here for some fun and connecting with one another outside of a workplace. We had several lanes reserved, pool tables abundant, an arcade area, and good food! The bowling was fun and I seen many smiles and happy faces! Thank you, Bowlero, for accommodating such a large group and making it a memorable experience. Our teammates still ask when we are going back. Hopefully, soon! I definitely recommend this place for fun and unwinding with friends, either over a meal or drinks. As always, enjoy and Happy Bowling for Pizza!

    Fun place to bowl with friends. Food and drinks are good. Sometimes the sensors are a little off with how many pins you knock and they use string pins. Staff is super nice and attentive.

    Arrived at Bowlero at around 8:30 pm for 7 people on a Saturday night and there werent that many people. When we left around 10:30 pm, the place looked already packed. It costs $11.99 per game per person and $6.99 per pair of shoes and socks. Drinks were decent at a decent price. You could barely taste the alcohol. One issue we had was there didnt seem enough space for all 7 of us at our side of the lane. There were seats available up top, but it wouldve left a couple people out. There also wasnt enough space for us to put our items in. A little perch below the table and hooks for purses and jackets, but nobody felt safe to keep those items behind us if nobody was seated up top. Overall, we will still come back, but maybe not so often since it is pricey just to bowl one game.

    I honestly can't recommend this place enough. I was completely blown away…read more From the moment we walked in, the level of professionalism and cleanliness stood out, especially for a kids' arcade and activity center. Everything felt well run and thoughtfully managed. One thing that really impressed me as a parent was the staff member monitoring the entrance and exit. He was incredibly attentive. He recognized us, noticed our child, and was clearly keeping track of who was coming and going. Of course, you should always watch your own kids, but having someone that alert adds a huge layer of peace of mind. We used a Groupon, and if you have ever used one, you know it can sometimes be a hassle, but not here. The process was seamless. A staff member radioed ahead for us, and by the time we got to the snack counter, they already knew what to do. No waiting, no confusion. We were set up immediately and on our way. That level of coordination was impressive. Every game we tried was working perfectly, including VR games, which is rare in most arcades. Even smaller details, like all the basketballs being available at the Papa Shot machines, did not go unnoticed. The kids' drop ride was a huge hit with my daughter, and the claw machines, which guarantee a prize, were a fun bonus, especially as a way to end the visit on a high note. The prize center was also well balanced, with reasonable ticket costs and fun options. They had some great games too, like rhythm games and classics, that made it enjoyable for both kids and adults. The real surprise was the food. We ordered pizza expecting typical arcade food, but it exceeded expectations by a mile. It was soft, fresh, and genuinely delicious, easily better than what you would find at places like Chuck E. Cheese. The entire dining area was spotless, which is almost unheard of in venues like this. Tables were clean. Floors were clean. Everything felt cared for. The service continued to impress throughout. Our food came out quickly, and when we finished, the staff handled all the cleanup. We actually went out of our way to find cash just to leave a tip because the service deserved it. We originally came for the full experience, including batting cages, laser tag, go karts, and mini golf, but honestly, even before doing any of that, I can confidently say this place is incredibly well run. Based on everything we experienced, I have no doubt the rest will be just as great. If you are a parent looking for a fun, safe, and well managed place for your kids that you will actually enjoy too, this is it.

    Be careful going to Family Fun Center. I used to really like this place, and hosted several…read morebirthday parties here. Over the years the technology they use doesn't seem to be keeping up, where things will glitch causing lots of time and effort to get the tickets earned reflected on your card. Luckily we took a picture of the ticket rings that were won at the claw machine prior to adding them onto the card, but even after that, it was still a big hassle where management seemed suspicious that we were trying to dupe them out of tickets that were earned properly. What was surprising is that they didn't even bring the staff member over that scanned the ticket rings initially to confirm she had added the tickets. After adjusting the tickets, my card account was still active on the board, so I went back and checked to make sure it was closed out properly to avoid any further ticket issues. I asked the original staff member if she remembers adding my tickets, and she said she did but we should be good now as this was a system glitch. I accepted the explanation and took that as issue closure. Later when we went to pick prizes, another "lead" employee approached me (wish I would've taken her name), and immediately accused me of being rude and aggressive towards the staff member that added my original tickets. As a lead, I would have expected her to ask me if there was any issues with the employee, instead of outright accusing the customer. I asked her to clarify what was taken as rude or threatening, as I never raised my voice or said anything out of line even though this issue took some time to resolve. She wouldn't give me any specifics but just warned me to not be rude. Instead of getting into any further back and forth with her, I decided to just pick a few prizes and leave. I found it very unprofessional for the lead to approach me in that manner, while the Manager Tabitha didn't step in, even being close by. If something was said that was perceived as rude, let's bring everyone together and hash it out. I can guarantee *God as my witness* that I never said anything offensive, threatening, or rude to any of the staff members. All I did was provide details and proof that there was a system glitch and the tickets that had previously been added were not on the card. At no point did I ever blame or fault anyone at FFC for this issue. Rich Yee, if you'd like to discuss this matter with me directly please reach out.

BDubs was…read moreridiculously packed, so I searched for an alternative in the Southcenter area and ended up at The Break Room Sports Bar & Café, located inside Bowlero. What a lucky find! I'd been here before while bowling but had forgotten how nice the sports bar and dining area really are. The bar itself is a great setup for watching games--plenty of tables, bar-top seating, and comfortable spots to sit. There's a solid selection of beers on tap along with a full bar for cocktails. The TV setup behind the bar is awesome, with multiple large screens streaming different games at once, exactly what you want in a sports bar. The dining area has even more TVs and feels like an extension of the bar, but still family-friendly. The menu offers a good mix of specialty drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic), appetizers, and classic bar food like burgers, tacos, wings, pizza, and more. You can even order online if you don't want to wait, but we were taken care of by a very pleasant and helpful waitress. We ordered the nachos, fish tacos, and wings. Everything came out quickly and tasted great. The nachos were generously loaded with white cheese, ground beef, and jalapeños. The fish tacos were filled with ahi and topped with a sweet salsa that worked really well together. The boneless buffalo wings were plentiful, flavorful, and had just the right amount of heat, served with a side of fries. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here--less crowded, comfortable, clean restrooms, good food, and a fun crowd to watch the game with. This just might become my go-to sports bar.

They have an incredible collection of pinball machines, and enough arcade cabinets to take a break from chuckin' steel at ramps (I still wish they had a Third Strike cabinet, but I won't hold it against them). There's also a back patio if you need a break from the din of the machines or want to have a conversation with your friends to discuss which Ninja Turtle is the best. It's Raphael. It's always Raphael. They have a fridge full of a variety of canned adult beverages and soft drinks, along with a non-alcoholic slushie and an alcoholic slushie to sip on while gaming. The majority of their machines have cup holders to help you out with your beverages. I usually need a couple of Rainier tall cans to get me loosened up enough to be at peak pinball performance. There's also a varied selection of small pizzas if you need something to snack on. It's a family friendly spot until about 9-10pm? I can't remember exactly, but after that time, everyone under 21 must leave the premises and it's adult swim time. The atmosphere has always been very even-keel though, I rarely notice when kids are or aren't present. The bartenders are sweethearts and love talking nerdery when they're not busy (What's up Randal 'n' Forrest!).

I originally thought this was a place meant to look like an old arcade based on reviews and pictures but this is truly an old arcade. Everything from the smells, carpet, machines, and vibe brings you back to the peak arcade days. There are a couple newer machines like Minecraft and 4 person PacMan but the majority of the machines are classics. They have multiple coin machines to exchange cash for coins and it seemed like games were between 25-75 cents each credit. We didn't try any of the food or drinks so I can't comment on that but there were other people enjoying that. They had signs on the front door that kids are allowed until a specific time as well.

We had a huge party that wanted to bowl and so we called and reserved some lanes weeks in advance. They got us a decent price - prepaying for two games, and also had a food buffet option, which was delicious. I'm not sure what the average price for bowling is nowadays but we paid $12/person for two games and shoes, and $14/person for the buffet. The bowling machinery worked well for the most part. Although it's design is a bit outdated, everything worked perfectly and we never had to bother the staff to fix any lanes. The food was pretty good, we went for some Chinese comfort foods which you can never go wrong with. The only reason I'm not giving this a 5 star review is due to having an extremely rude encounter with one of the workers at the bar. I was requesting to order more food, and at this time I didn't realize it was an unlimited buffet, I thought we had just ordered a la carte, and so when I asked to order more, the worker continually made me feel stupid by giving me condescending questions on why I was trying to pay. If she simply explained to me that we had an unlimited buffet (which no one explained to me) and that I didn't need to pay, that would've been the end of it. But she had to patronize me and gave me a glare on top of it. Really wish this encounter didn't have to go this way. Overall, I'm happy with the service we got at Skyway Bowl from Robin, Kevin and the team. This is a solid, old school spot for bowling that gets the job done.

You will get hung up on if you try to call. The virtual assistant wouldn't send us to a real person who I know is behind the desk.. actually staring at the 2 people just not doing anything but standing there. I physically go in to talk to the worker to let them know that customers are being hung up on and they said there was no physical phone number to this location and that it gets routed to a call center in Dallas. He apologizes but has absolutely no fix. He tells me there's a 60min wait for a bay. I swing around back and I see at least the entire 2nd floor empty! Over 34 bays are empty when they could let people play. The parking lot is 1/2 full. If there's no wait staff, then at least tell the patrons that there's no waiter service and I can just hit some golf balls like a regular driving range. You're still getting my hourly rate for just hitting the ball. This is why I don't ever want to book a party here. There's no way to even coordinate with anyone, the workers have no power/resolution. I mean, I WANT to give them my money but Topgolf is horribly managed and run completely not efficiently. This place could make so much more money but no one is listening to the customers. Money is actively leaving bc customers are being turned away. And the staff can't/won't help and don't even have phones to answer phones bc they don't get phone calls routed to them. Might as well not have them there bc what do they do but turn people away and apologize as money walks out the door??? I'm so disappointed. It's a great place to hit a golf ball if they let you or let you give them money! I can't believe a business can be run so poorly: can't talk to them on the phone and I saw the other reviewer saying the same thing and the reply from Topgolf rep was to PM him... like, how is a customer supposed to contact management to get help/resolution/change? Oh also, there used to be free foosball and air hockey to play while waiting for a bay. A fun way to have food/drinks and stay entertained while waiting for your chance to play and not having it be so painful to wait on the waitlist. That so least made waiting 60min just to hit a few golfballs tolerable. Nope. They got rid of those and put overpriced arcade games instead. What, so I pay to wait while you refuse to allow me to play at the bays that I know is empty! It's like they WANT to turn people away.

This day one of the FIFA games was being show. And the place was packed. I had a chicken Caesar wrap with spicy chicken. One thing is clear, in anticipation of the crowd, most of the items were made ahead of time to allow for quick table service. On one hand, when a soccer match is on and beer is flowing, the food becomes second to the fun of the game. So it was different heating a cold wrap that had been sitting in the refrigerator, Warmed for a few minutes and then served. Fries that were begging to cooked, but the best root beer I had that day. Lesson: don't go to the sports bar/restaurant when are actually hungry because the game is more important to than the food.

Very good prices for 2026, about $12 to $16 a person, and after four they serve dinner. Great bowling rates, $3.75 per lane Monday through Thursday daytime for seniors, shoes included, otherwise $30 an hour. Roxbury Lanes has pull tabs, but no lottery, and I'm okay with that. Reasonably priced drinks. Only thing is, there are no ashtrays available in the smoking section, nor a place for ciggy butts. I can live with that. Hard to get an open late on Saturday afternoon, that's for the kids, right up to 9:00 pm. The open late, 11:00 a.m., and close at 2:00 a.m, business depending. The opening is on 28th Ave SW, not on Roxbury, and there is a good sized parking lot about sixty feet to the south. That's for the bar, the casino and the bowling alley together. Have Fun!
