Round1 in Hicksville is a large arcade and entertainment complex that covers more ground than most…read morelocations in the chain, and the variety of activities available makes it a viable destination for a group with different interests rather than just a place I end up at. I walked into a building where bowling, pool tables, ping pong, karaoke rooms, rhythm games, claw machines, and pinball all occupy different sections of the floor, and the energy in the space was consistent from the moment I arrived. The arcade is the strongest part of the offering, and this location carries imported games from Japan that I do not find at most American arcades. That is a meaningful distinction for rhythm game players and anyone familiar with the Japanese arcade scene. The claw machines rotate prizes regularly, and the selection of plushies is good, though individual machine difficulty varies considerably and some are more winnable than others. Coming in on a weeknight meant lighter crowds and better access to machines, but it also meant some claw machines were not fully stocked, so flagging a staff member to set up a machine if what I wanted was unavailable is worth doing. The facility is large and reasonably clean, though it gets loud during peak hours and seating for adults who are not actively playing is limited. Weeknight visits offer a noticeably more relaxed version of the same space. For a group activity destination on Long Island, Round1 delivers on variety and energy, even if individual elements like claw machine consistency have their limitations.

Luckily we were able to claw some stuffies, some key chains and win some prizes! We got a total of 1,138 tickets which we will save for next time.

From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly accommodating, making sure our lanes were set up, food came out on time, and everyone was taken care of. The food was surprisingly good for a bowling alley hot, fresh, and perfect for snacking between games. You could tell the team there knew how to handle big crowds and keep things running smoothly. The bartenders absolutely killed it last night they were nonstop busy, but still smiling the whole time. I'll admit, we probably drove them a little crazy with how many rounds of shots we ordered, but they handled it like pros. They were total sweethearts, keeping the drinks flowing and the energy high even as we got a little tipsy and loud. It really added to the party atmosphere and made the night even more memorable. Between the drinks, laughs, and friendly competition on the lanes, it couldn't have been a better way to celebrate our milestone. Everyone had a blast bowling and cheering each other on. The staff made us feel welcomed from start to finish, and I can honestly say I'd love to come back here again whether it's for another company event or just a fun weekend night out with friends. AMF Lanes Syosset definitely knows how to deliver a great time!

They say we can't because they need to stay empty for the 4pm reservations. They need to come up with a better system.

I had to have the weight I wanted ordered and he had it in within 2 days! He was so accommodating about switching the ball design if my boyfriend wanted to later.

He ensured that we could always come back in to get the holes drilled larger with ease if ever needed. Thank you Justin and Bob!!! Will definitely come into this shop for any other future bowling purchases. You can tell this business is run by reliable people.

We visited Bowlero in East Meadow, NY last Saturday night to take advantage of their unlimited…read morebowling special after 7:00 PM, which includes shoe rental. On paper, it's actually a pretty good deal for a Saturday night. Unfortunately, our experience went downhill almost immediately. The first thing we noticed when we walked in was a large pile of bowling shoes on the counter where guests check in and pick up their rental shoes. It gave the impression that the center was disorganized and that basic housekeeping wasn't being kept up with. When it came time to get our rental shoes, my spouse's pair was fine, but mine were in terrible condition. The employee initially tried to give me a larger size than I wear, although to his credit he did find the correct size. Once we reached our lane, however, I discovered just how worn out the shoes really were. They had a spot worn so thin that it looked like it would soon become a hole, and the shoelaces were ripped. Shoelaces are inexpensive, so there's really no excuse for leaving rental shoes in that condition. Since rental shoes are required to bowl, I didn't have much choice but to use them. As we settled in, we noticed more signs of neglect. The flooring near our lane had a noticeable tear that had not been repaired. Even worse, every time I sat down in one of the chairs, it slowly deflated because it had a hole in it. These are basic maintenance issues that should have been addressed long ago. The bowling itself was also disappointing. The lanes appeared to be heavily oiled, making it extremely difficult to throw the ball consistently. We don't own our own equipment and used the house balls, but they became so oily that our hands felt greasy after almost every frame. We actually left deciding that, at the very least, we're buying our own bowling shoes and a towel before our next outing. Overall, we left disappointed. The unlimited bowling special is a good value, but it doesn't make up for a facility that feels neglected and poorly maintained. With better upkeep, replacing worn rental shoes, repairing damaged seating and flooring, and paying closer attention to lane conditions, this could be a much more enjoyable place to bowl. Right now, though, it feels like a bowling center that has simply been allowed to deteriorate over time.

I wanted to share my positive experience with my son's 2nd birthday at Dave & Busters in Westbury…read moretoday . I had about 50 guests and we rented the Billiards section & bowling area along with public access to the game arcade. We had their meal package of 5 apps + added the nachos bar. We also paid a bar tab + provided arcade game cards for our guests who wanted to play. It was honestly an amazing party. It was great to have a home base of billiards/bowling which is a quieter section, after being in and out of the arcade. Many people were impressed with the food. The areas were spacious & clean. Drinks were great as well. Karen, the events manager is amazing. She understood me and my vision for my son's party. She always responded extremely fast via email with great details. Owen, the manager of the party was fantastic- always present and everything I needed was easy for him to help with. If you have a party, request Si for your bar- he's super friendly and a great bartender. The server we had was so attentive and kind, her name was Marina, and she helped keep my party on schedule and everything was so neat & tidy. At first I was hesitant to have a summer birthday indoors at a game arcade with mostly adult guests. It was the best decision to do this. Adults had a blast, so did the few kids. I highly recommend Dave & Busters for your next event.

They're not for points ranking. You only bowl once then your score corresponds to an option for your "character" or "monster" or where your arrow will land or how much you destroy your opponent's castle. This is good esp for the little kids. Btw, I noticed the background screens now project televised shows/sports; no longer the colorful visuals when we first went there.

We've been coming here for the past month and have generally enjoyed bowling here, especially the…read more$19.99 unlimited bowling special. It's a great value, and the location is very convenient for us. Unfortunately, our last experience was frustrating. We were bowling next to two people who repeatedly approached and released their balls at the same time we were bowling. The man in particular would step onto the approach while I was preparing to bowl, which was distracting and made it difficult to concentrate. They also seemed unfamiliar with basic bowling etiquette. I eventually spoke with him politely and explained that the bowler on the adjacent lane should wait until the person who is already up has finished. Before doing that, however, we went to the front desk and asked if we could simply switch lanes. We were told there wasn't a lane available and that, because these weren't league bowlers, the staff wasn't going to enforce league etiquette. I understand that open bowling is different from league play, but basic courtesy between adjacent lanes should still matter. What was particularly frustrating was that after we had requested a lane change, the other couple apparently requested one and was given another lane. So the customers who had originally asked to move because of the problem were not accommodated, while the other customers were. We've had good experiences here otherwise, which is why this was disappointing. We don't expect staff to police every little thing during open bowling, but when customers are interfering with each other's turns, there should be some reasonable way for staff to help resolve the situation. If a lane becomes available, it seems fair that the customers who requested the change first should be given priority. We still like the alley and the value, but I hope management will take a look at how situations like this are handled during open bowling.
