    One of our team events related to the Boston marathon was held here. We had a back area reserved with a few bowling lanes. The food was basically various pizza, hot pretzels, sliders , chicken tenders. None of it was gluten free so I wasn't able to eat anything. Everyone at the party said the food was pretty good. The service was good as well. They did ask if we needed drinks etc. It did look like a fun place. They had pool tables, karaoke bars and the bowling lanes. It was located across from the convention center. We parked across the street at the convention center. Parking is super expensive. I think it was $25 for 1 1/2 hours. Would recommend for a party or team building location.

    A great group activity spot with a lively atmosphere - gives me 90s vibes! Many groups can fit in there but I believe making a reservation is recommended. There's bowling, pool, and arcade games, along with standard bar fare and sports playing on TVs all around. I wish there was hand sanitizer though, because it felt pretty gross to be eating finger food and bowling at the same time. The large pretzel was quite good - v buttery and salty. The servers came to check on our group several times. They were very prompt at ending our game once time was up. - Parking is difficult around there, especially on a weekend night. There is a garage next to it which is the easiest but comes at a price. We ended up paying $20 for 1.5 hours. - The restrooms were... dirty...

    What a discovery! All the years I've passed this by. It's right across the street from the hotel I stay at too!!!! There are a lot of things to do here besides bowling and arcade fun... they have Kareoke! How fun is that??!!! Anyway I had a fun time here!

    Had a great time tonight bowling here, trying their shrimp bites and steak, and playing in the arcade! They also have a really cute holiday bar section open through the new year! I'll be back

    Opted for the larger of the two options and it was HUGE and was only $14!

    Kings is a classic when it comes to bowling and arcade games. Although this location is a little more outdated than others I have visited, it gets the job done. Whether it is a rainy Saturday afternoon or a busy Friday night, this location hits the spot. We never have an issue getting a lane, but I do recommend calling ahead first just incase. There are a limited number of lanes and pool tables, but they are in good condition. The drinks are a great price and the staff comes around often. Although I have never had the food, the bbq tenders smelt incredible and the group of people bowling next to us seemed very satisfied. You can not go wrong visiting this spot. It has everything you would want and expect out of a bowling ally. Just beware of it being on the older side and the limited number of lanes they have!

    A really nice place to go if you want to play pool or go bowling. Waitlists are usually a first come first served deal. However, when we decided to bowl while waiting for a pool table, we weren't notified when a table opened up and lost our spot in line. Drinks are good, food is hot. This location has a nice nightlife vibe to it, with neon lights and everything! Also, their arcade gaming room is FREE!

    Pool table art! You almost don't want to play.

    How much does this cost per person?

    Hi there. Thanks for reaching out. You can see all of our bowling pricing on this page: https://www.playatkings.com/boston-backbay-bowling-and-games/… 

    What are the current guidelines for bowling right now?

    Does this place provide hole drilling service for bowling balls?

    Unfortunately, we do not.

Food menu was great and so was the beer selection. Lots of tvs and ambiance was cool. Food was a tad slow coming out but the place was packed so it was understood. I ordered the steak tip salad and it was great! The steak tips were EXCELLENT and salad was prepared correctly. (Sorry no picture) Friend ordered the regular steak tip meal and those were excellent as well. Will definitely visit here again to pregame party!

    I would give this place ZERO stars if I could…read more.. Do not go here!!!! 4 of us went for a quick drink right before the Red Sox game. We were asked from our bartender if we wanted to close the tab or keep it open. We chose to close it out so we can get to our next destination. After receiving the tab of $58 for 2 beers and 2 mixed drinks... we paid the tab immediately. And when I say immediately, I mean the cash couldn't have come out any quicker from my wallet to pay it before he went to wait on another persons order. The bartender than came back to us grabbed the reciept and cash which included the tip and said thank you. 5 mins later another bartender came up to us asking if we need our tab so we can pay . I told her we have already paid but the way her demeanor and tone to us left me feeling some type of way. I told her I paid in cash with 3 $20's, 1 $5 & 3 $1 bills. I told her to the exact dollars. She then went around asking every bartender if they took our cash. Everyone looked around and said they didn't touch it including our own bartender who waited on us AND was the one who took our money. Fast forward I asked for a manager right away because at this point we were being accused of "not paying" from not just 1 but THREE different bartenders at different times. After waiting another 20 mins for the manager to come out after watching the tapes, our bartender came right back out and took ALL the money we handed him out of the tip jar... he knew exactly where he stashed it... The manager came out and apologized saying that it's her best bartender and he would never do such thing. And you know what, he might be and it could've been an innocent mistake, but accusing us of not paying and then taking the money out of the tip jar while he looks shakey and shitting his pants...I would say it wasn't and that he did it on purpose. So looks like I will never give business to Cask N' Flagon and I hope everyone pays close attention when paying tabs anywhere!!! Being accused of not paying a tab from 3 different bartenders is disrespectful and very low of a big company.

It's like someone mashed together an amusement park, a zoo, and a full-blown circus, then replaced the cotton candy with alcohol and the safety rails with chaos. Every floor felt like a different dimension--one minute you're vibing, the next you're dodging a human traffic jam like it's bumper cars. But the real main event? Colleen. First floor. Absolute legend. Watching her work was like witnessing a headliner performance before the headliner. She wasn't bartending--she was conducting a symphony of pure mayhem. Drinks flying out of her hands like fireworks, orders remembered with supernatural precision, cracking jokes, keeping the energy electric--it was like if a ringmaster, a magician, and a quarterback all fused into one person behind the bar. I showed up stone-cold sober. Like, "responsible adult grabbing a pre-show drink" sober. What happened next was less of a night out and more of a controlled demolition. Somewhere between Colleen's perfectly poured chaos and the multi-floor madness, time stopped making sense. I'm pretty sure I blacked out on one floor and woke up on another like I was fast-traveling in a video game. At one point I may have been part of the circus. Not watching it--part of it. By the time I left, "walking" was no longer an option. I exited the building in a full crawl, like I had just survived a natural disaster. Limbs questionable, dignity gone, spirit intact. 10/10. No notes. Would absolutely risk it all again.
