    Funny tombstone
    Rosemary P.

    Bullwinkle's in Upland is a fun throwback spot with arcade games, mini golf, bumper cars, and tons of family-friendly chaos. The western mini golf theme is neat and those tombstones, hilarious!! There's also a story book theme we will try it next time, or the other one. (Outdoor) We haven't played in the outdoor mini golf since about 2016 prior to the closure/remodel. The old Bullwinkles came back with a vengeance! Nicely updated! As per usual, our little one had a blast bouncing from game to game, and the neon bumper cars were fun, brought back the old carnival kid memories and the laser tag was definitely a highlight. It can get busy and the games add up, but it's a great place for kids to burn energy and adults to feel a little nostalgic. Solid spot for a family fun night. Not the cheapest place but a good short trip mini theme park that's local enough to be 15 min away from home is definitely worth a trip to have some fun every now and again! And don't forget to try the bumper boats! Take the kids they'll definitely enjoy and have fun, and adults too! lol

    Yummy food

    Bullwinkle's is great. This is the perfect spot for family fun or a gathering with friends. There's mini golf, arcade games, axe throwing, you name it. There's so many activities here that can be explored. I actually met my husband here, in our first date. I may be biased because of that lol I am a fan of Bullwinkle's! The food isn't half bad either. I recently came back with some friends. We played mini golf and it was really fun. We hit the western indoor golf course. It was fun! Just a little warm. We were sweating. They need to crank up the air conditioning. It gets super hot and stuffy in there. Other than that, it was fun. You can keep a score card if you want. I got two hole in ones! Total luck lol

    This space is running wildly. The security team is too young, jobs like that should be given to older and more committed staff. Andrew was helpful, but found my humor more important along with telling me his life story about being from Victorville. I was making a report, because when you are alone with a flat tire around children they try to punk you. Working on manners is important when you decide to be a latch key parent. Definitely rate the safety of this place very low, and I would be more mindful about hiring more diverse staff.

    Fun atmosphere, lots of games and activities for the family. Food is good and drinks are also very good. Very entertaining kids loved it. Will be back.

    I honestly didn't expect to have as much fun as I did at Bullwinkle's, but this place pulls you right into the nostalgia the second you walk in. It feels like one of those spots where the energy is already buzzing before you even touch a game card. The staff was surprisingly upbeat for how busy it was and the whole place had that lively, chaotic vibe in the best possible way. Everything looked clean, the arcade was actually functioning, and the food came out faster than I thought considering the crowd. I got that classic theme park feeling without having to drive halfway across California, which is already a win for me. What I really loved was that you could tell people were here to genuinely enjoy themselves. Families, teens, grown adults who clearly came to relive their childhood for a minute, everyone was just in a good mood and the place kind of feeds off that. The outdoor attractions were running smoothly and the staff kept things organized without making you feel rushed. Even the pizza, which I fully expected to be forgettable, was surprisingly decent, especially when you're already riding the high of beating someone in air hockey. The whole experience ended up being a lot more fun and easygoing than I expected, and it made me realize why people keep coming back. If you want a simple, upbeat day without overthinking anything, Bullwinkle's in Upland does the job really well. It's one of those places where you walk out smiling even if you didn't plan to. Perfect for a family day, a cute date spot, or a random afternoon when you just want to feel like a kid again.

    Western theme - Indoor miniature golf, 18-hole course.
    Mary F.

    Bullwinkles in the city of Upland has upped their game (literally). It has something for everyone; Rock climbing, laser tag, bumper cars, bumper boats, indoor and outdoor miniature golf, go-kart race track, bowling, arcade, food/drinks... You can easily spend an entire day here exploring and experiencing all the different attractions they have. I brought my entire family for an indoor game of miniature golf, we chose the Western theme 18-hole course. I was impressed with the construction of this particular course. The aesthetics of it all, they spared no expense. The only negative: it gets crowded and waiting to start the next hole takes longer than expected. With that said, finishing a game could take a couple of hours. There are benches at every hole and slim tables to set your drinks on. Nonetheless, it was a great time. I would suggest paying a full day of play here, it makes better sense than paying for one attraction especially if you're going as a family, cost is per person. Staff at the front were friendly and helpful. It's clean, parking is free, great local place for kiddos and adults. Have fun!

    This is the perfect place for quick family fun. Since they added upgrades, I heard good things about it and decided to take my son. The ambiance is cool, there's a bar, food hall and a nice arcade. Outside is they go carts and mini golf. I paid $35 for 3 different activities. We started with golf and it took about an hour to finish it. The line for the go carts was super long and I didn't have the patience to wait. The good thing is you can reuse your card when you return. I would recommend bringing the kids here for some quick fun.

    I was in town and wanted to play arcade games and realized this place had many more. when you walk in you pay for everything and its loaded on to a card. i started at the go carts it was a line but it went by quick. after i went play the arcade games. they were limited and some didnt work hut they had basketball, air hockey, and racing. sat at the bar to just chill and have a break which is nice. this place offeres so much, go karts, axe throwing, virtual ride arcade and more. definitely recommend for a fun night out.

    Rocio R.

    Loved it. Adults and kids had a blast. Parking was a bit hectic. Lines are a bit long. We got the 3 option package. For 5 of us it came out to 170 something. We did the laser, go karts and western mini golf. We were there for almost 3 hours. Paid 20 for two small beers. We didn't try the food but it looked good.

    Brittney S.

    This remodel is WAY better than expected!! My husband and I were blown away. The expansion has brought in everything - bowling, arcade, 3 mini golf courses, axe throwing, bumper cars, go karts, laser tag.... EVERYTHING! Great for a birthday party or date night. Love that is great for families! Kids of all ages. The western mini golf was our favorite. I do wish staff did a better job at cleaning inside the golf courses- there was empty cups throughout the course. But overall we are coming back!

    Another themed hole in the Western themed course
    Ray Y.

    Massive space for what they had. Two indoor courses and two outdoor courses. The storyland course was a bit outdated. The Western course which seemed new was the best detail yet. Definitely felt you were playing in the wild wild West. Each hole was a different theme. My son and I did both indoor courses and the blue course outside. We had lunch and the variety of food was a pleasant surprise. The space for the arcade, bowling, axe throwing and laser tag was massive. Looked like extensively renovated or torn down to be rebuilt almost new.

    First timer the location was very nice and clean . I got helped quickly and and questions I had the answered at the front desk . Me and my daughter did the bowling and western mini golf . The arcade is very nice and fun I would try the fast an furious arcade game it was fun for two people . The mini golf was very nice and clean . It was cool and looked amazing out of the sun . I would recommend this to anyone that is looking for something to do with their child my daughter is 12 and she had a lot of fun . The mini golf course was definitely the highlight . We would return for the battling cages and go carts

    Yes

    Do they serve any adult beverages?

    Yes they offer alcohol.

    They do not! Currently concessions are lacking too. They have soft drinks and energy drinks but the construction is making the food and drink options less

    Is the new track open yet or is it still under construction?

    Still under construction 🚧

    How is the arcade? Do they have any fighting games? Back in the day their arcade rooms were the best.

    They are re-building the entire Bullwinkles it's going to be awesome. We'll have to wait till the reconstruction is completed and they reopen. Right now they're closed for the rebuild.

    Yes. They have 3 courses currently open. One inside and two outside ones

Always plenty of parking here and the location is super easy to find. When we arrived there was a long line of people, but our friends were already checked in and we just had to get our shoes. The lane we were given was a decent size, couch on either side for each lane. I do like the surfboard tables, but they were kind of in the way and narrow with the table next to us every time we got up to bowl. Especially since the other table had pizza that was sticking out and I was nervous to knock it over every time I got up. We did unlimited games for 2 hours, that gave us enough time to get about 3 games in. I noticed plenty of balls were already in the ball return, so not sure if people go grab balls, or if they are just placed there to grab from. There were plenty of size options for the balls BUT I hate that we had to share with the lane next to us because they were eating pizza and grabbing the same balls and every time I went up the ball felt super greasy and gross. Cosmic bowling was really cool! Fun music videos and movies and other videos being shown on the screens down the lanes. I was expecting it to be darker inside though and having the black light pop out more. Inside also has a bar, food to order, arcade area, bathrooms and saw some people celebrating their birthday. They go all out with a neon sign and you're given a bowling pin that everyone signs. So that's cool to know if you plan on celebrating here. The manger was also kind and gave our friends coupons to come again and bowl two free games on their next visit so I thought that was really nice! All in all, I haven't been bowling in a minute, but it was fun to get together with friends, have a beer and just have fun!

Fancy high-powered spinning and frequent gutter balls, we were squarely near the lower end of that spectrum. Different game modes on the screen included cartoons/animations of bowling pins, sea creatures, and comic book characters, which added some charm to an otherwise similar experience. At one point, the guys on the lane to the left gave us some good pointers, though I cannot say I will bowl enough to retain any of the muscle memory. All in all, a nice way to spend the evening.

We went bowling, bought snacks, shoe rental and spent an additional $132 on 4 game cards with convenience fee. Bowling was fun although we had to ask an attendant to remove the bumpers.

I did not catch her name but she had long braids and suggested a pitcher of soda for our family as a better value than 4 standard drinks. I do want to stress that this is a cashless business and I do not support digital only businesses. I purchased summer bowling passes for my teenagers for a killer deal but am concerned on how they will be able to purchase snacks if I'm not there with my credit card but I believe there's a machine that converts cash into card. I'm not certain if that's what I heard. They had a lot of fun games for all ages to play. Beware as per usual to most Arcades with the exception of D&B's in my opinion it's going to take several $100's if not $1000's of dollars to obtain a decent prize. Unless you win jackpots. My boy's plan to save their tickets until they can get Something they want. There were a-lot Of teenage congregant's as usual to any arcade. One group threw an empty game card at my shoulder and were laughing when I looked up. Nevertheless it was a fun time.

They consist of racing, dancing, sports, RNG games, etc, all in the fun of the games. Some games give you tickets where you can redeem points from your card to get extra rewards, take it like a points shop. Overall, a very fun, spacious, and considerably expensive spot.
