Very great experience had a decent selection of food and beer ! I would definitely go and recommend

We visited Drive Shack for our company Christmas / Team building party. We had an awesome time and everyone loved it. We were a group of six guys in one driving lane area. From the outside it is huge three story mega structure that you can't miss from 288 highway when heading north near Broad Street. There was a large parking lot in front. I was glad I arrived early because there was about an hour wait to get a lane on the third floor. The third floor seems to give you the advantage when hitting the ball. There is a restaurant on the second floor and bar on the third. The lane had a L shaped couch and a coffee table. The area was very comfortable but the walkway seemed crowded if anyone stood there. I would recommend adding a behind the sofa table or shelf to place drinks on. It would give it more available hanging out space. Our server, Jade was excellent . I asked if she could split the bill based on food and alcohol so I could choose to turn in the food and game receipt but keep the alcohol seperate. She had no issues. Jade did a great job explaining how everything works to our guests and kept our drinks full. The food was actually really good. We started with a couple nacho appetizers and then moved on to burgers later on. Game play was so much fun. It took a little while to get used to playing but it was terrific. We played the dart board, monsters, and card game. Each really entertaining. For $35 per hour around 2pm for six people, I thought it was a great value. I will definitely return with friends and family. read more

This was our first visit to Drive Shack - had a wonderful time with family. Sebastian treated us so well, he kept checking on us to see how he could serve us. We will most certainly be back! read more

What an awesome date night! Giving this 4 stars because we paid $12 for nachos with chicken and they were terrible and the service was not great. However, the pork tacos and garlic Parmesan wings were awesome. It's a little pricey ($45 an hr for the bay) but definitely worth it. read more

Cool place. Large booths with plenty of seating and heaters in golf area. Other games fir those who don't want to hit golf balls. The staff will help you with your stance and swing if you are a novice. Great golf games on many well known courses as well as Blackjack and darts golf. Plenty of screens so you can see what the golfer sees. The food is delicious. read more

I am giving this place 4 stars for the actual golfing experience. This place just opened last week so the wait was an hour which is expected. We decided to get food and drinks while waiting. Now it took them over an hour to get our food and drinks which is extremely poor service. It looks very unorganized with servers walking around with peoples orders and stopping at each table to see if they ordered that particular dish. The whole dining and drinks area was so chaotic with the staff looking lost the entire time. Although the drinks were soooo delicious (get the cotton candy martini!!! You won't regret it), the food was very average. The golfing part was awesome!!!! The lanes were beautiful and the games were perfect! I will definitely be back for golfing but not for the food! read more

My partner and I had never picked up a club in our lives, but we had a blast here last night! We went to the Yelp Elite holiday party which meant free play for three hours, free food, a photo booth with Santa and the Grinch, a hot cocoa bar, and lots of cool swag to take home. We were greeted with a margarita at the door, and the staff made us feel welcome right away. Maria especially was as helpful as she was hilarious! Joe immediately began showing me and my partner how to even hold a club. He helped us get our swing down and would periodically check back in with us to offer tips and corrections to our game. By the end of the night my partner was already hitting his balls over 100mph! I got my aim down and was able to consistently hit the targets I wanted. We played a few games of "Shack Jack," their version of Black Jack in which you have to hit your ball onto the cards you want. We would've never come had it not been for the Yelp Elite event, but we had a wonderful date night I would gladly repeat! read more

We had an awesome time at Drive Shack. I've never been to a Top Golf or anything like it, so the whole concept was novel to me. I love any place where there is food and drink as well as an activity to do, all in a classy atmosphere - like Tang & Biscuit shuffleboard or River City Roll. This place fits right in with that. Although it's a bit outside or Richmond, it's worth the drive. They have a huge facility with a big parking lot. When we went (4PM Saturday), there was no wait, although I could see it being very busy or picking up at other times. There's no way to reserve a lane in advance, but lots of places to wait (bar, restaurant, rooftop, small arcade with tabletop shuffleboard). We were offered our choice of floor and setup (high top, table or lounge style - for the last one think typical bowling arrangement with L-shaped couch). The first floor is a very different experience from the uppers and I recommend second or third floor. They provide all the clubs (including lefty on request) in the price - $35 per hour before 5 PM and $50 per hour after. They have a pretty advanced tech setup and you can extend time from the screen at the lane. Although they have VR courses and silly games we just wanted to hit golf balls off the side of the building! Servers were attentive and all our items came out quickly. They have an extensive beer list and standard pub food. Not too many options for vegetarians - they definitely need an Impossible or Beyond burger - but we got pretzel sticks and tots. All the food was good, pretzels were warm and homemade. The final bill was a lot ($170), but included food, drinks and two hours of golf for four people. This place is great for a date, a large group (6-8 per lane), or even with kids during the day. We also love that it's close to Charlottesville - just under an hour drive. We'll definitely be back! read more

Playing in the social league. Great fun. Great food. Great times. I recommend Drive Shack over that other place down the road. read more

Giving this place another 5 star review after planning a birthday party here! First I will say that's it's a real bummer that's there's no way to guarantee two bays next to each other without going through their event planning and buying a food package which adds a hefty cost to the bill. For more than 2 bays I get it, but it just added stress to the planning. However, when I got in and told them it would be great if we could have our two bays together they made it work and were very friendly and helpful! We quickly got up to our bays and had an amazing time! The heat in the bays was enough for a blistery January night. We still had to wear coats but it was manageable! The service as always was great and the snacks were delish! Great place for a bday party! I was also able to bring a cake and balloons with no problem! read more

I've been here a couple times with groups and have had great service. The staff is so friendly and attentive. The games are fun even if I'm not great at golf. I was pleasantly surprised by the heated seats when I went today, which were much needed given that it was rainy and cold out. It was somehow dry and warm in our bay area...magic. I had a glass of the house Pinot Noir which wasn't bad despite the misspelling of noir on the menu. I ordered the ahi tuna bowl and there was too much sauce and the rice was undercooked. But I tasted the pretzel sticks a co-worker ordered and those were great. Everyone else in my group ordered burgers and seemed happy with their food. Lesson learned. Order a burger next time. And there will be a next time. read more

Came by for the awesome Yelp holiday party, but Joseph, one of the event coordinators, went above and beyond to show me the entire venue & it's definitely a great spot! Whether you're interested in holding a business gathering in one of their meeting rooms or just playing around on the bays, in the arcade, or at the (two!) bars, Drive Shack has you covered! read more

This was my first time at Drive Shack and I really enjoyed my experience. This has 3 levels to hit golf balls from. The parking is expansive and easy to get to. Also the fees are per bay and not per person, which can be cost effective if you are more than one person. There are bars on each level and each is very nice. There is food also. there are various modes to hit golf balls with, including some that help you improve your skills, like Blackjack: when you view the tv screen above your bay, the screen shows the field below but all laid out as playing cards. You can then aim for the cards you want, in order to reach 21, just as in the card game and you play against the computer. Very fun!!! There is a conference area with a big screen that can be used and modified to any clients' needs. Also, there is a small inner courtyard to hang out with your pets in if you like, and it has astro turf and actually looks quite nice. I would definitely go back. read more

Nice facility. I had fun. The atmosphere was nice. The friends I went with said the drinks were watered down and almost they were out of almost every drink they ordered. But I did enjoy the chicken wings and chicken nachos. read more

My family loves this place and the food is good. My kids enjoy the pretzels and fries!

The owner has compensated for the inconvenience and was very professional! I very much appreciate the experience and can't wait to come in soon read more

Had a great time with some friends! This was our second trip. First time I wasn't so sure I would come back but after some AMAZING and very attentive service by Morgan B, we will DEFINITELY be coming back. I know she was running around taking care of other customers but she really made us feel like we were the only ones there. EXCELLENT SERVICE!! read more

I wanted to love this place.. but it seemed super basic to me. The setup in the lobby area is nice and all, even the seating by the bay...but the game itself left alot to be desired. The area your aiming for seemed super simple..but the games in the computer were odd to us. You can swing 10x and it doesnt register on the screen. Now, I'm no tiger woods but I can hit the ball out there and it should count for something. I mean for $45 bucks an hour I'd like to enjoy the game. Our server was nice and helpful, paid us just the right amount of attention - not too little not too much...and he kept us happy. I doubt I will be back though. Sorry guys, I was geeked to try you out but it fell flat for me. The struggle to get points was too real for me. read more

Morgan Bentley made the night fantastic! She was attentive and so friendly. Food was great and everything was fun!

My wife and I had a great time during a lunch date. Morgan was a huge help and answered all our first timer questions. We had a blast.

Management should try to secure a bay. I had to come in person because no one would answer the phone or return a message for an event. The site is unfriendly for reserving a date in advance. While I was there another family came in complaining how no one was answering the phone. I'm hoping the in person experience will be better. read more

Jeremiah was awesome. The wings and pretzel sticks are so good to snack on while we play. Highly recommend checking it out..even if you aren't a golfer you'll have a blast! read more

Fantastic event at Drive Shack! Suz was great!! I would recommend to any nonprofit looking for a fundraiser.

Very fun outing! We had great service and the food was okay. They were out of a few items but what they did have was like mediocre bar food. Not crapping on them but don't expect top tier food. It's also a bit pricey. The game itself is very fun and a great group activity. I'd go back. read more

This is going to be long...l also want to state right away my parents are avid golfers and have been all my life. They currently live on a golf course and belong to the country club. So l have been to my fair share of driving ranges and golf courses all over the country. This isnt my first rodeo. Maybe l should say it isnt my first matchplay or lay up. We just went to Drive Shack to celebrate my husband's birthday. There were 6 adults, 2 toddlers, and a newborn. Upon getting there the lady said we HAD to have two bays since it was 7 max per bay due to covid. We explained that 3 of our 9 were 2 years old and under. She said it didnt matter. Okayyyy. But we dont need nor want the extra space and if we decide to congregate amongst ourselves, it hardly seems like an extra bay we were made to pay for but wouldnt be using, was pointless. But so be it... They put us up on the second floor. We were in bays 201 and 202. These bays dont have the couch seating, only high tops. Immediately lm having reservations. Where are the toddlers going to sit? How am l going to easily breastfeed my newborn (chairs dont have arms so its not going to be the most comfortable for me to hold him the entire time)? I ask for high chairs for the toddlers and ask if theyre tall enough for the high top tables. Theyre not. Facepalm. We request to be relocated to the first floor since we didnt have places for our kiddos to sit to be able to eat and rest. Also, the height of being on a higher floor is an added threat for our youngsters who have never been to a driving range. Drive Shack does have nets that would hopefully catch a child who got away from the attention of adults and decided to be brave and jump off but there are also small ledges that they could walk and fall off of. I dont think kids would do this necessarily, but its one less thing l wanted to worry about. We eventually get relocated to a first floor bay that has seating our children can utilize and that was great. I do need to mention at this point, both servers we had (upstairs and down) were great and very accommodating. They both agreed we shouldnt have been given the higher up bays for our party. And our downstairs waitress fixes it so we dont have to pay for two bays (thank you!) since we will only use one. Great! We order drinks and food. We got a lot of the shareable appetizers: charcuterie board (mehhh pics look great but just mehhh since the only cheese you get is mozzarella), nachos (dont bother), pretzel sticks (l would come back JUST for these!), chicken wings (didnt try but hubs said yum), and dirty fries (mehh). I was going to order a pizza or flatbread but never got the chance. It was super hot the day we went (96* and very humid). This isnt the fault of Drive Shack of course, but their fans in the bay are very minimal in keeping any coolness. So you may wanna bring either those neck fans or cold neck wraps if you go during summer months. Would l come back? Maybe when the weather is nicer outside. Would l request a bay on the first floor for young kids? Yep. Definitely. Let it be known you cannot bring any food or drinks in. I was stopped from coming in because l had a gold can of caffeine free Diet Coke. I asked our waitress if they had the caffeine free kind (breastfeeding). Nope. So l felt like my only option was water. I get the whole no bringing in outside food or drinks. But l think telling ppl at the door they couldnt bring in one can of soda is ridiculous. Newsflash: l cannot drink anything you have so l only ordered a water, you werent going to get me to buy anything for a drink since you dont offer anything l could drink (also diabetic from pregnancy so no sugar drinks for me). But being asked to leave the only drink l could have besides water in my car made me frustrated. Its not like l could order tea or soda. So that left a bad taste in my mouth. Its one thing if l brought in a cooler filled with drinks or flask of alcohol but a half finished can of soda...call the party police. I was frustrated by a lot of issues. Some were Drive Shack's, some were totally out of their control. But it did not make for a pleasurable experience. Would l come back? I probably would consider taking a Mulligan lol (giving them a second chance). I think l would try when the weather permits because we all didnt love our experience but many other reviewers clearly did. Maybe lm missing something. But our first experience was mehhhh. read more

Drive shack was fun, but we definitely preferred the experience at Top Golf. The atmosphere wasn't as fun when we visited and the games are less intuitive to play. read more

I just left but I want to be back already haha. Lovely new shiny building. Huge and lots of space. It's 3 levels. They have an outdoor bar and patio on the third floor. I'll be honest I was not expecting fine dining from a golf place but their food and drinks are actually quite tasty. Nice staff and servers too. We did not try the golf yet but I definitely want to be back for that. read more

Went here to watch the game! We were able to sit at a booth and have the waiter turn the TV to our game of choice. Our waiter, Stephen, was attentive. He took our order, refilled drinks, and made sure we were taken care of. I ordered the Asian salad. It didn't have enough dressing but Stephen asked the kitchen for more and I was accommodated. It was good and a cool place to hang with family on a lazy Sunday. read more

So much for my son's 14th birthday celebration. Menu has changed. AND what is left they are out of! For bday dessert NO icecream cookie skillet. Golf games changed too. Server went to eat and we did not see her for a long time. Wonder what she ate for dinner because nothing is available!!!! read more

I wanted to see what all the hype was about in regards to Drive Shack. This place will not disappoint you. The appetizers were served quickly and HOT.

Fun family activity or groups. Marie was helpful and attentive.we'll definitely be back.

First time here & waitress Kim T was the best!! She was very attentive and patient with our rowdy group!

My experience was fantastic. A friend and I went at two pm on opening weekend and were able to grab a spot right away. Driving range is $35 an hour and allows you to do everything from playing St. Andrews to playing to playing arcade style games. You can also use the range to see how you hit the ball as well. When it came to the food we ordered the wings, pretzels, and a flatbread. Each had great flavor and was cooked well. I personally would have preferred to have a crispier crust throughout the flatbread but it was still quite tasty the way it was cooked. Their waitstaff was fantastic, prompt and courteous. Whoever was working 323 on Sunday deserves a shoutout (sorry I forgot his name). Overall I would recommend Drive Shack to those who love golf as well as those who just enjoy having a good time. read more
