I ordered three pizza slices for my family. They were not proportional. My kid received a slice 6 inches long and 2 inches wide. It was like the pizzas teachers give out on "special" occasions. The pizza tasted good though. Everything was overpriced. It was $67 for 30 minutes of fun. There were not enough things to buy with tickets. We spent 15 minutes looking for a prize and we ended up with a lot of candy. The only thing I like there is Pool, but the thing is that we had to wait 4 minutes for somebody to ask us what we wanted, and then we had to wait another hour even though there wasn't anybody playing. We had to ask to play. I get that they can be busy sometimes, but this is unacceptable. After that, we had to wait like 6 minutes to return the stuff. we had to ask for their attention again when they directly looked at us. I dont really recommend coming here unless if you are having a party. read more

First time to Main event and I was impressed! We went to a birthday party here today and it was super fun! My kids want to go back already they had such a great time. I would have given it 5 stars for the fun but the party hosts left the dirty plates on the table when she had us come back to the table for cake. But other than that she was helpful with the bowling and game cards. read more

My husband, my friends and I all love this place. We always make sure to go when they are offering $10 all you can play game cards, or happy hour on food and drinks and free shuffle board. My husband also goes when there is a discount on bowling. It's a large establishment with pool tables, shuffle board, bowling, laser tag and an arcade. They have 10+ pool tables and 20+ bowling lanes. There's fun for everyone. And sure the food isn't amazing but it's bowling alley food, it's good enough. read more

Dryden was by far THE BEST Main Event employee I have ever encountered with. He is very polite, respectful and really gave me that 5 star customer experience. I would go to Dave & Busters more but now I think I will begin coming back when he is working! Really great job hiring this young man! He was also super fast with the drinks!! read more

Terrible service overall! But I had fun bowling and Arcade center was fun! The service was very low and people at cash register when you get your bands were trying to over charged me for shoes that my people already got for me and was acting very rude ! No point in that specially a girl ! But are server was taking forever ! Manager had to be involved it's legit place just ate up the service ! But bartender was chill he been there almost a decade !!! read more

My nephew had a birthday party here today. I didn't engage in any games or play but i did sit at the bar. The bartender was personable and nice. I was hesitant to eat here because I've never been to a main event but my buffalo chicken wrap was actually better than expected. I liked the flavors but i do think the pieces of chicken were tiny. So tiny that when they fell out of the tortilla, I couldn't pick them up with my fingers and had to stick the microscopic chicken to the tortilla in order to eat it. The bar area was very clean and the establishment seemed to be well kept. The kids had a lot of fun and money goes a long way here. Very affordable for a kids party. read more

Took way too long to get service when requested. Food was decent at best and the when asked help with the bowling features the employees had no knowledge about how to operate the bowling console. I will not be back at this particular location. Not impressed at all! read more

Main Event Shenandoah - Bowling, billiards and arcade! - Bowling Near Me - Shenandoah, Texas

Everything started off nice but I noticed while we were bowling for over an hour that we had no service. Everyone said they had BAD service. When I went up to complain at the desk someone was already there complaining they were waiting for so long for WATER. So I said, "yeah you can't get no FKN service around here" So the manager (oh they have one of those with this shitty service!) Comes out and says oh wow wow no need to say that. (Me thinking there's kids around but only kid is my own) she said you don't need to curse at my employee. First off all, I wasn't and really? I had my daughter next to me if it meant to come out my mouth it wouldn't be around my kid. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! BACKED UP MY A HORRIBLE MANAGER! A short long hair blonder girl Caucasian. She don't help. She kept telling me and the customers to calm down when we were just trying to talk. BAD SERVICE, will never come back & tell EVERYONE IT SUCKS HERE!!! When will this place hire good people? Smh! read more

Spent a ton of money, couldn't get my food to save my life. Same experience as when I came here a year ago. Employees had no regard for the time and money spent here. Hope Dave and Buster's puts them out of business, so many other places do it better than here. read more

One of the bartenders declined serving me because my ID card was bent and he said it was damaged, had to get a manager called over to tell me that my ID is fine. I no longer wanted a drink due to horrible customer service read more

Horrible service, too crowded, long lines. Waited 15 minutes just to get told that they can't bring food to our table. Then, waited another hour, asked 3 people, including the manager for a "server" and one never came. read more

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! Rude staff, heads grudges, and are very rude. Everything is dirty and nasty. Most of the machines are terrible and malfunctioning as well. Over all a terrible experience don't go. FIX STAFF THEIR RUDE read more

Workers were rude bad customer service no help game pauses laser tag malfunctioning over priced and bad experience don't recommend

Update... while I appreciate the response from Main Event regarding my recent visit , I'm baffled as to why I need to send an additional email to them so that the GM can see it. I mean, can't the guy who responded to my review simply call the GM and say.. hey dude.. check Yelp cuz you're getting bad reviews. read more

I came on 7-29-2021 with my family. At 11 they had already stop serving food But no one said anything. I ask for them to open the lane of bowling at 11 and no one was able open the lane with me and I spent 300 dollars. All they offered me was a free hour of bowling. You should have refunded me my a portion of my money back. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Also no service for food or drinks was found read more

I'm not really "into" these kinds of places but when my nieces wanted to go bowling AND play lazer tag; this seemed like the spot. The staff was very friendly (for the most part). It is very clean considering how many people and little kids are funning around. We were here on a Wed. night and it was packed! It does seem rather expensive for what it is; but maybe my perception of the cost os off. Bowling is bowling, so I have no complaints, other than the wait. The lazer tag was kind of a drag though. I have only played one other time (in London) and their arena was much better than Main Events. But, I only have those two spots under my belt so again maybe my perception of what is good/bad is off. If you're looking for a place to play games, bowl, get your lazer tag on, etc I would guess this is the spot. read more

Meh, ok fun at ok prices (as in, a little too high :D) I just recently went to Incredible Pizza in Conroe and actually they're much better. But this isn't the worst in the world if you have a group going... Would go back, but like I said, for the group. read more

What a great place to have birthday parties... There's everything for all ages!!! read more

Had a good time playing pool. Ordered 4 items. One came 20 mins after we order, the next 2 came 40 mins after and the last one came after 1 and a half hour later. The bartender was nice. I understand kitchen can be busy but to wait for an hour for food is unacceptable. Also had a plastic on my food which I thought was cheese. Salad was already saggy when served. I will not recommend the place for dining. Wish I can get my money back. read more

Fun to place to bring friends and family, but staff was rude for no reason. The one lady at the front desk was the only nice person.

Went there last night 5/22/21 for my 7 year old sons birthday. Took us about 30 minutes to get greeted and then another 15 to get the rootbeer and tea. Ordered a cotton candy shirly temple for my son and it took another 45 minutes to get that. We went and played games and came back to pay our tab but couldnt find our waitress. Asked to speak to a manager so we could pay and Aaron came over to help us. He was extremely respectful and nice, he offered to take 50% off of our tab for the inconvenience and was extremely apologetic and he asked if we needed togo beverages or anything else before we headed out. I still tipped 20% which he said wasnt necessary but as someone who works the industry i couldnt not tip. As we were walking out he chased me to the door and handed me a coupon for my son and i to come back and receive 30 minutes of free gaming. He absolutely went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and is a great example of great management excellence. Only negative part of our arcade experience was that a few of the games were out of order and the back corner by the basketball machines was almost non accessible due to people trying to have a full on basketball game using the balls from all of the machines. read more

I've always been treated with respect and with great service. The manager has always been very kind and helpful with any problem I've had. Ive been coming here for years and plan on coming back for many more. I recommend Shenandoah main event over any other place!!! read more

Main Event Shenandoah - Bowling!!! - Bowling Near Me - Shenandoah, Texas

Main event is always a good time! Monday nights are our favorite! We love the 10.95 game cards because we can play for hours!

Super disappointed in this place. We came to visit from California with our 2 young girls. The staff here is very rude. For being a place that caters to entertainment, they missed the mark with service. Who separates three 9 year old little girls for laser tag? My daughter asked to be on the team with her sister and cousin and was told NO. She left here in tears. Thanks Main Event. Never again. read more

I was accidentally charged an extra drink at the bar, the manager MIMI solved the problem very quickly and issued me my refund. I appreciate the professionalism and the friendliness of the business. My family and I will definitely be returning here for a fun time. read more

Fun environment for kids and adults. Excellent management, spoke to Raul. Food had been updated. New arcade games are also up to date

The worst. Don't walk in on any random Saturday with your family and think you can go bowling. Went in with my family on a Saturday at 1:00 and was told I'd have to until 9 pm for a lane. Greeter at the door basically told me it was her job to turn people away that weren't there for a party. Won't go there again. read more

The place is great but the customer service is horrible, definitely won't be back after my experience last night.

Always So crowded! And Saturday nights are not worth the wait! And the snack bar.. What a joke. Not worth the time or money. Last time I went there were lots of kids running around and the music was lame. And my waitress was nearly impossible to find after the first round of drinks. Can't say I'll be spending any time here.. read more

Although we did have a disappointing experience but the wonderful team of managers at Main Event has worked very hard to ensure that they would work on fixing any and all issues to avoid future unpleasantness. I have to admit, the management at Main Event has been very sensitive and "human" in understanding deeply how important our issue was to us. They were constantly in touch with us and helped us in any way they could. I will definitely book my future events with Main Event, and will spread the word that they have some of the best managers I've ever encountered! So many companies can learn what good management is, from the team at Main Event! Kudos to the entire team but an extra special shout-out to Wes and Charles on the Management team. Thank you for all your efforts! Sheraz Syed read more

One star is generous. My wife, daughter and I came here early this morning to take advantage of the all day bowling, billiards, and laser tag early bird deal. We started out with bowling (shoes not included - that's an extra $10 for all three of us. Seems deceptive, but whatever. The real killer is the bowling shoes themselves. They are specifically made to NOT SLIDE. if you've ever bowled before than you know this is not just inconvenient, it's downright dangerous. I returned my first pair, thinking I just got a bad pair the first time (after I fell down on the lane due to the sticky shoes) but they were the same. They are all that way. I told the man at the front desk about the issue and said that I'd just bowl in my socks. He seemed unconcerned and of course did not offer a refund on my shoes. If you have ever bowled before and actually slide when you throw the ball do not bowl here unless you have your own shoes. It's dangerous and they don't really care. Just remember this isn't a bowling alley, it's just some place where you can "bowl" I guess. Edit: the manager made it right, but I still don't advise actually bowling here. read more

Had a great night with my family! There where two people who worked at the facility that were very very welcoming and sincere to me and my family. There were some discrepancies with my bill & food, however they were able to resolve the problem.... Ashlei and James are great employees!!! I'd highly recommend coming here!!! read more

Main Event Entertainment sure has plenty of things to do. However, there are quite a few attributes that Were not impressive. First, the bowling area has very little space for walking and aiming. A few times, it marked my throws as "foul" when I'm 90% sure I did not advance past the borderline of the alley. One time I slipped and fell. People would play a lot better if there is more room in the bowling area for concentration. Another attribute I found surprising is the price to bowl. I'm not from the Houston Metro area, so I don't know what's normal, but they charge you by the hour to bowl which (to me) isn't fair. I usually bowl at places where they charge you per game, which seems much more reasonable. The price they charged per hour PER PERSON sure wasn't cheap. One positive thing I will say is that the employees are indeed very friendly. Our service was from staff was excellent; they helped with a couple of systematic issues. That's what I was the most impressed about. Good customer service will bring visitors back! P.S. the food was tasty! read more

We had a great time here. Did pool, bowling and the arcade. Staff was really friendly and helpful, but didn't wait on us while bowling, which would have been nice. A bit pricey, but still well worth it. We will definitely be returning. read more

Took our daughter to Main Event for her birthday, Their deals are great! We had a great time. The place was very clean. And my daughter & her freinds loved the great selection of games. I was amazed at the quality of their food. Excellent menu and tasty food reasonably priced. My daughter & her freinds were fully entertained. great experience, we will be back. read more

we were lied to. they said no lanes were open, but i saw about 3 lanes open. they said we needed to get on the wait list, but it cost $15 more. then we wanted to do karaoke instead, but we needed to make a reservation first. we tried to sit down and eat but no one came to sit us down for like 10 minutes. we sat down, and the waiter asked us what we wanted, but we didnt have any menus?? then we ordered and my friend tried to get us ketchup and forks, but they literally did not come or see us violently waving and yelling. there was like one actually working employee, and she slayed! anyways this toxic and ignorant work setting was extremely annoying, would not recommend. read more

A friend and I came here last night to celebrate getting our life insurance licenses. We both had the teriyaki salmon with fresh green beans rice and red bell peppers. The salmon was excellent. Something you would find in an upper scale restaurant. Played four rounds of pool. Pool tables were in great condition and the pool cue sticks were in good condition the hole place looked very well kept up and clean. My friend and I ended up closing the place. Will definitely be back read more

you can have a great time at this place, there is plenty to entertain you. Pool tables, bowling, laser tag, arcade games, you name it. Kids and adults alike love it. It is a good time. Now for the bad part, dont count on getting any service. And if you are planning on having a party there, dont. You are better off just taking a group of friends on your own because you will be limited on your time, get kicked off the tables 3 times in 2 hours like we did, moved around, and when you turn around and ask for your party goods, balloons, table clothes, etc. they will tell you they are in the trash and if you complaint to a manager you wont get any response. But they are more than willing to take your money. In my case it was 450.00 for a 2 hr party. Not happy with this place read more

Worst experience ever!!!!!!!! We had planned to have our 16 year olds birthday there. Could not reach them all week on the phone to confirm that we could come and reserve a place. Their website says open til 11pm so we thought we would be ok to just show up that day at 4:30pm Nope!! We show up at a few minutes til 5pm, they had a sign posted outside they were closing at 5 for a private party. we went in to speak to "management " but when we explained our situation, their so called management was very unsympathetic and rude and said "sorry we had it posted on our website". Knowing it wasn't posted there I asked him to show it to me. He could not and blamed it on corporate. This place is a joke. They told is to leave all 12 of our party. No offer of anything. We highly do not recommend this place ever!!!!!!!!!! We left and went to Bolero. They were very nice and accommodating. We highly recommend Bolreo!!! Do not go to Main Event!!!! read more

I have been here a few times and each time it has been okay. Nothing spectacular, but not bad either. There are plenty of games to keep you and the kids busy. They offer bowling with a ton of lanes, billiards with many tables and also Laser Tag besides the arcade games. The food here is just okay. My advice is to come for the games and eat elsewhere. An added bonus, they have a full bar here as well, so mom and dad are able to have a good time as well as the kids :) read more
