    I have come here a couple of times. I do absolutely love it here. Everything about this place is…read moregreat except the lane conditions. Every time I go I have to worry about what the conditions will be and have to adjust. Now with that being said, since I usually play league style sometimes I have to adjust to two lanes. And even though it's kinda inconvenient? It's also very fun to learn how to adjust your game to what you're given. BUT the atmosphere? The people? The memories I have of being at this place? I couldn't trade that for anything

    I think this bowling alley is awesome! We have only been about three times but it is never too…read morecrowded unless there is an event going on. There are plenty of lanes, equipment is updated along with their screen tvs. Prices are affordable, sometimes they have specials where you can bowl for free. This bowling alley is located in the naval base across from the commissary. The food is ok, simple bar food and drinks. Bathrooms are decent, they have baby changing tables. Nothing spectacular about this location other than it is more private and they do hold events for holidays. You can also have birthday parties here. This year we attended the free Christmas event they had which was awesome! Free bowling for adults & children, free pictures with Santa & Mrs Claus (they provided two copies per family), free popcorn, free breakfast & drinks (waffles, eggs, potatoes, apple juice), free face painting, character balloons, prizes, gifts & kids could also paint their own bird houses. My toddler was ecstatic and had so much fun! We will definitely attend next year. All the staff was so nice. The MWR ticket & travel office is also located inside this bowling alley where you can find pamphlets on all of the nearby attractions and discounted rates.

    First, I'd like to say that I didn't bowl. Swollen foot wouldn't allow it…read more Secondly, I went with a small group from my church along with other friends and family of our sponsor. It was my first time in a bowling alley but I must say watching everyone else bowl and looking like they're having a great time was quite refreshing. The server for our group was very good attending to our group. Two thumbs up for her being wonderful while handling the soft drinks and other staff members bringing out the food. I got to admit the food was pretty good. Pizzas were nice and hot and tasty, the chicken tenders crunchy and delicious, the breadsticks spot on, the atmosphere was electric. The place was packed, folks having a great time, I had a great non-bowling first time. Maybe, when my foot heals, I may try to bowl. TBD...

Lanes were good, food was good, and customer service was awesome! Four of us just needed some relaxation time. So we met up at AMF. Had to wait about 10 mins to get us signed up for a lane, get shoes, get balls. Once at our lanes, within moments, we had our server come by and ask if they could get us anything. We ordered food and drinks. Food was tasty, drinks were cold! We loved those chicken wings and flatbread pizza! As for the bowling part, we did have fun, even if the scores did not reach our expectations. We had big dreams, but little skill to achieve them. We had a manager come by later and check on us, which we were able to say everything is great! It was!

    One thing missing is an information desk. And if they had one, I never saw it…read more I only did the bowling activity which was fun; there are so many lanes and a VIP room with additional lanes. The cost was per lane vs per person and you pay at the counter in the bowling area. If you're in the military/a vet let them know as you get a DISCOUNT. Not only that, but shoe rental and sock are free, (normally around $3.50 each). Since I didn't go in with intentions to bowl I didn't bring any, but was able to get a free pair since my cousins benefit applied to everyone in the party. The socks are actually cute (to me). It was very busy on a Friday evening and the crowd seemed to be teens and adults. Very few small kids. The servers come to the lanes to take orders, and the tablet at the bowling lane has a button to press for their help. Since it was taking long, we just ordered drinks from the bar nearby. The food, ordered later was simple, but good. -Sunset strawberry sangria is good, but could use more strawberry flavor. - Mozzarella sticks are no different then what you'd get at the grocery store and for the price the amount given isn't enough. - Wings, got a double order, 1/2 sweet chili, 1/2 garlic parmesan. I've often seen the latter on menus and steered clear because it didn't sound appealing. However, since it was ordered (for the group) I figured I'd give it a try. It was Soooooo good that I before I left I placed a to go order. Servers and staff were overall kind, but very busy. Lots of running and trying to take care of everyone. There weren't many smiles, but I imagine they were focused on the task at hand. Anyway, be kind and be patient. If you're staying at a nearby hotel let them know your going to Apex. I did (as I inquired about directions) and was given afree pass for laser tag, which I gave away.

We arrived around 10 minutes after it opened and it was already starting to get busy. You can pay to play at the desk next to the bumper cars which is closest to the ropes course, escape rooms, axe throwing and go kart racing. They do offer military discounts with an ID, just ask. They will give you a ball color of your choice for game use when you pay. Clubs are at the entrance to the right of the golf course along with the score cards and pencils on the wall. I love how they have a place at each hole number to place the score card and pencil which also provides a surface to write down your score. The course is under black lights which the edges of the course are outlined. 9/2024 This was pleasantly fun! However, it was multi -sensory overload for me the moment I walked in. We were there to celebrate my niece's birthday as a belated birthday treat for her & we had family come in out of town, who also recently had a birthday. If you do research on their website you will discover they have A LOT to do! But like everyone has mentioned activities are individually priced. I feel like the more you book, the more you should get some combo discount. They do offer 15% off for military with an ID, but not online. Caveat - It's only in person with proof of ID and you can't come in earlier in the week or in advance and pay for attractions for the future and get the 15% military discount off. It has to be purchased & used on the same day for it to be applied. There are no military discounts on Dark Ride. Some attractions you need to book in advance online like bowling, escape rooms, axe throwing, & the simulators. Check their website for any changes. Saturdays are popular, so I signed a contract for advanced scheduled attractions so that my niece and cousin could participate in the activities they wanted, to prioritize & not be disappointed or waiting a long time to participate. You do get a discount if you do so but a signed contract & payment is due prior. You don't even have to come in person to do it. Either call or email for your inquiries and they can work something out for you. We didn't book a party although you can do that but a food minimum is required and a reserved room is only for 45 minutes. Skyla, one of the events coordinator made things super easy & convenient to book. She was very helpful answering questions. I had never been so I wasn't familiar where attractions were located. Once I found out, I planned all the activities on the same floor back to back for convenience & chose available times that were roughly 30 minutes apart. We just showed up, checked in at the desks located close to that attraction. Silas, one of the managers came to greet me and informed me where to go. He was pleasant and willing to answer any questions. We did the 30 minute Zombie Research Lab escape room. You want to check in 20 minutes prior to your reserved time. It was fun and we broke out with 7 min & 22 seconds left with a group of six. They have quality props and hints pop up on the tv monitor. Four of us participated in the ropes course. You're allotted 15 minutes to do whatever elements you want. They make you empty out all your pockets for safety since you're 40 feet above the ground over the bowling alley. I'm not sure if it was because we booked it as a group under a contract that it was only the 4 of us at the one session, but that was nice. There were maybe one or two elements that were challenging. But it was still fun! Our 3rd activity was axe throwing which is a flat fee regardless of the number of people, max of 6 per lane for an hour. Darrel was our instructor and he was fun! We really enjoyed ourselves and with some of us he really tried his best to help land some throws but some just couldn't. There were alot in our group that didn't participate but they were able to enjoy us throwing axes. My niece was killing it with her throwing skills. Our last activity was an hour of bowling. These are time sensitive so you better arrive 15 min earlier to get your rental shoes and pick your ball. We did the VIP lane which is an additional price but great because there are only 4 VIP lanes and they are away from the rest of the lanes. You can still see lanes 5 and on but there's a glass wall in between & it's a lot quieter. The seating is comfortable and enough to fit six people. Bowling is also a flat fee for an hour or more up to six people. Plus an additional $5 pp for shoe rentals. But if you have a military ID you can get up to six shoe rentals for free. You can also order food at your lanes but I don't think anyone came by to take our order. Unless someone in our group went up & ordered. Overall we spent from 2pm -7pm there. We even squeezed in a hologate game of Zombie Resurrection which is an adventure in itself!

Good size crowd but still plenty of room and game to easily get to and play. Started off with great service at the front desk, I believe the guys name is Cleary. He was very welcoming. We explained this was our first time in and asked for recomendations. He was very friendly and cordial and explained how everything worked. At the end of the visit we realized he gave great advice that allowed us to fully enjoy our visit. The vibe and ambiance was really good and had the true arcade feel. People were laughing and having lots of fun just like us. There were people enjoying food and drinks and relaxing in groups in the dining area, playing duck pin bowling, video games including guitar hero, playing pinball, skeetball, basketball shoot and football throwing games. I mean there was real fun being had by all including us. Didn't have food but had beer and played pinball and video games. I really like the beer taps because there were a lot of choices and I tried several different ones because you pour as little or as much as you want. I did about six oz pours and tried several ones. We will definitely be visiting Circuit Social again to get out and have fun and take our mind off things. Thank you for a good time. we needed it!!

    Super fun place! They have a ton of old school games mixed in with new ones. This is a really cool…read morespot.

    Visiting friends in Virginia with family, and we decided too all go and spend a day before we leave…read moreat top golf , we've always went to top golf since my boys love golfing, so we been all around the top golf's America haha. But this top golf experience was a little bit different, yeah of course not perfect especially because the tables were sticky and quite dirty so that was unpleasant, and our bayhost was alright but it felt a little like she was annoyed of us so it kind of ruined the mood, but the server who brought us our food honestly made the whole experience reach the 4 stars! He was a really nice, funny, pleasant, well mannered young gentleman. He brought us the food and actually took some time explaining everything and made genuine conversations, making jokes and being extremely friendly, not only with me but my whole family, he was also extremely fast and understanding and got us everything we needed even though I'm sure he was busy and had things to do! I usually don't write reviews regarding servers but this young man named Jamari really stood out, it truly feels really nice when someone who's a server takes out time from they're day to be genuine and have a conversation, and it really sets the mood for the rest of the experience you have. Especially not knowing how that can change someone's whole day. So all I have to say my family's experience was really made great because of the nice young man Jamari, each top golf deserves an employee like him! And Thank you Top Golf for hosting us all the way in Virginia!!

    I needed up buying a year Platinum Membership & I'm looking forward to seeing if it's worth it!…read more I do appreciate that I received 20% off food & drinks.
