Do I recommend this place? Ummm... yeah…read more Whether it's date night, entertaining out-of-town guests, or just looking for something fun to do, this is the spot. The food trucks outside are always a nice bonus, but the real draw is the atmosphere and games inside. Duckpin bowling is a blast, the place stays busy with great music and a lively crowd but never feels chaotic, and the staff does a great job checking in and making sure everyone's good. The restrooms are clean too, which says a lot for a place this big and popular. Parking isn't great, but that's just South End for you. Overall, this is consistently a 5/5 Charlotte hotspot.

Pins Mechanical in Charlotte was a pretty cool place to check out. One thing I really liked was…read morethat they have their own parking lot. We got there around 11:30 PM on a Saturday, and there was still plenty of parking available, which was a nice surprise. The crowd was decent without feeling overly packed, and the atmosphere was fun and energetic. The drinks were reasonably priced, but honestly, most of the ones I tried were pretty underwhelming. The green tea shots were definitely the highlight and probably the best thing I ordered. We were playing skee-ball around 2:05 AM and finishing up our last game when a bouncer came over and told us we needed to leave. Since they didn't close until 2:30 AM, that interaction felt a little rude and left a bad impression. Overall, it's a fun spot to visit with friends and worth checking out at least once. It's not somewhere I'd personally go every weekend, but it has a cool vibe and offers a good night out.

This once great establishment has unfortunately taken a turn downhill. I am not one to complain…read morebecause I know places have their issues and it's tough to run a bowling alley with no issues, but this all changed last night. I'm not sure what happened or what is going on, but I am in a league on Wednesday nights and when we showed up, there was NO OIL on the lanes without any warning, notice, or adjustments made when bringing this to their attention. No oil on a league night?!?! You have to be joking me. You can not take yourself as a serious bowling alley and pull something like that. Figure it out and keep your equipment and machines up to par! It doesn't have to be perfect all the time, but come on. Management doesn't seem to care enough these days. This also isn't the first time I've showed up to this bowlero where there was no oil on the lanes. We pay good money to be in the league and last night was unacceptable.

The chicken tenders were homemade, lightly battered, and incredibly juicy. The cheese quesadilla was perfectly cooked, and the homemade pretzel bites were light, fluffy, and delicious. I would definitely come back for this same meal and look forward to trying more of the menu. Bill was our bartender and he was amazing and attentive.

I've been to Queen Park Social twice now on a Saturday for the Vintage Market, and it's always a…read moregood time. The vibe is right--good energy, good food, and a great mix of vendors to walk through and check out. If it's warm outside, I love that you can easily go inside, grab a drink, cool off, and then head back out. It's the kind of spot where you can just flow and enjoy everything without feeling stuck in one place. I had the fries this time and they were bomb--definitely worth trying, even though I didn't take a picture. I didn't buy anything from the vendors today, but I connected with some really cool people, and that alone made it a great experience. Overall, it's always a vibe. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

Pretty decent spot for bowling. Ultimately, we had fun and it was pretty much what we expected. But…read moreI'll say some of the organization could use some improvement. We only knew our lanes were available when I went to check in on them. And while the online ordering system is great, it's pretty sporadic. We received 2/3 of the drinks from the same order (the one missing being a beer so likely the easiest to compile), which the bar was happy to give us as soon as we went to it, so I do wish I had just ordered at the bar. The bar staff were super friendly and attentive. We grabbed a pizza which was fine but I did appreciate the plates/cutter/etc that it came with making it easy to distribute. The location is great, easily walkable if you're in the area. And the wait time for two lanes itself was maybe 10 minutes on a Friday night, so definitely pretty accessible. I do wish there were a rack of available balls, as our lanes had a random variety of weights with no discernible rhyme or reason. They were out of socks the night we went, which is partly our fault for not wearing socks to go bowling.

It was my first time playing laser tag. You can play with people in your group but also have the option to allow other people in your session. Think you can have up to 20 people playing at a time. You can play in teams or individually. The laser gun keeps track of your hits and ranks everyone at the end of the game. The game lasts 10 mins. At first I thought, 10 minutes?! was way too short for the amount of money we paid for one session. But when you're running around on the course, 10 minutes is sufficient. It was fun and sweaty lol. The five star rating is for the exceptional customer service provided by their manager, Bryant and a staff member, Joshua.
