Me and my daughter took my almost 2 year old grandson here on a Friday afternoon, it was my first…read moretime there. When we walked up to the doors they were locked even though the sign says they open at 2pm , it was 2:30pm. A woman walked up & unlocked the doors for us, I just thought maybe it was for safety since it is located in a busy area. But no one was inside just her no other workers or people, it didn't smell like food or popcorn. Even though there was a machine.Very odd so not sure if they sell food or not. Good thing we had eaten before we went! So we pay for the baby to play in the jungle gym which was a very reasonable $5 maybe & $3 for mom to go in with him, she sold us a pair of socks for the baby $3, not bad at all. Even though he only went in once it's very dark and not too appealing. To play the arcade games you put $ on a reloadable card. The games go by points so each point is a quarter. There was plenty of seating area plenty of chairs & tables but just no people! :( I was kind of surprised for it being a Friday afternoon & summer time, no school for the kids. My grand baby immediately runs to the arcade games and they had lot's of toddler friendly rides for him which were all around 3 to 4 points. As we explored the other games I noticed a few broken ones, then as I really took a good look more & more were broken or missing parts. Even the air hockey was broken. I understand a few here & there but no it was a lot, I'm glad I didn't have my teenagers because they didn't have many options for that age group. The neighborhood it's located in is pretty rough so maybe parents just let their kids tear up the place over the years:( Not too sure but I really feel bad for this company. My toddler grandson enjoyed himself, it was pretty reasonable priceI would definitely take him back to play games if it stays in business.

Very nice place to spend a few hours with the kids…read more We took our 3 grandkids here recently to spend a few hours away from TV and electronics. It's a fairly reasonable place to go on hot summer afternoon. The kids spent an hour running around a large playscape. It always makes me pleased to see them come back to the table nice and sweaty for a drink. We got a pizza which wasn't too bad and a hot dog which he ate all of, so it must have been pretty good too. Then they got to play games and win coupons for "prizes". They each went through a $10 "game card" pretty quickly, but got to pick things they wanted. Although this place isn't squeaky clean, the staff were exceptionally nice. It wasn't terribly packed either, which is great for places like this. During the last 45 minutes unfortunately there was one little girl who was able to scream so loud (and frequently) that I jumped almost every time she let out one of her frequent squeals of joy. Can't blame that on anyone but the parents though and it's rare they'd do anything about it at a place like this.

We only came here because we are here for my nephew's fifth birthday and he likes to golf. It was…read morefun yet hot out so that sucked, but we played on.

Went bowling on Saturday night. We arrived at about 7pm. The place was packed but we got shoes and…read morea lame immediately! We got our shoes on and each found a bowling ball we liked. They had huge selection on the wall behind the lanes. The computer was easy to add names too and then we were off bowling. The lanes were nice and we had a blast. We each rolled some strikes and some NOT strikes! But fun was had. The grill inside has great food and the bar has full menu of drinks and beers. We had some beers and fries as snack. Once we bowled for an hour we headed out to dinner. What a great little place to have bowling date night. We will be back

We went to Highland lanes to go bowling on a Saturday evening. It was my first time at Highland…read morelanes, and we had a great time! There are 39 lanes available and it has that old school bowling alley look and feel. It is a first come, first serve system, but we were able to get a lane with no wait. The check in process was fast and easy. They give you your shoes, and you pay for the lane and the shoe rental once you are finished. We bowled for an hour and had an amazing time. None of us are good bowlers, but it was really fun. A different and great way to spend a Saturday night. The staff were friendly and helpful, the place was clean, and we will be back.

Skate rental was on $5 and they have some sort of pipe rollers for the kids to learn on, with a small practice area. It was really warm and sticky though. There really needs to be more air circulation. I think it would help the overall experience. I kept feeling like I had to wash my hands, but I really felt it was due to how humid and warm it was. I'd definitely come back, even though I busted my butt trying to get on skates after 25 years lol.

Went here for a quick bowling trip but the lady at the service counter was so rude. Nobody was at…read morethe counter except for me and her and since the start she was giving me such a mean face and ignored me when I needed help. The only time I got serviced was when the guy came out to help me. When it was time to check out, same thing happened. She ignored me for five minutes and told me to wait as she's filing her nails! Walked out frustrated. I'm never recommending this place to anyone unless she's improved on her customer service or honestly just not working there anymore. One of the worst customer experiences I've encountered in a while.

Oooh, if you like fancy theaters or Texas history or antiques or Illuminati conspiracy theories,…read moreyou simply must come visit the Austin Scottish Rite Theater (ASRT). Best known these days for delightful children's programming, the ASRT also serves as a rentable events venue, the site of many interesting touring act performances, and the ongoing home of one of the oldest Freemason groups in the state, Austin Lodge #12. The building was constructed in 1871 as a German opera house called Turner Hall, and you'll still find many interesting architectural details that hint at the original use. There's even an official state historical marker medallion out front. You can learn more about the fascinating history of the building and the men who met here over the years at the Freemason's site, http://www.austinscottishrite.com/av-temple/ and Historic Theatre Photos, https://www.historictheatrephotos.com/Theatre/Scottish-Rite-Austin.aspx My usual reason to be here is to hear some live music by one of our awesome local bands, or a touring act that is willing to perform in a venue that holds less than 400 audience members. The seats are comfortable and the room is gorgeous, from the old-time decor around the stage to the dreamy night sky on the ceiling and the priceless hand-painted antique backdrops. I really enjoy the intimate listening space and ease of movement out to lounges and the restroom, especially from the first row of the back of the theater. Parking for evening and weekend events is not too bad. There's a small surface lot at 1710 Colorado that is free for theater visitors after 5:30p and on weekends. If that doesn't work out, there is ample metered street parking managed by Texas Capitol (not by City of Austin) and a few private surface lots around with pay-on-site or reservations through ParkWhiz app. I usually don't have to walk more than a couple of blocks or pay more than 5 bucks. One thing that is not easy to do is to understand when upcoming public events are happening at ASRT. The theater's calendar lists only productions that they are managing directly (such as children's plays), and this is only a small sliver of what goes on here. However, if you are tuned into our local performing arts & culture scene, chances are that you'll see some upcoming events scheduled at ASRT and promoted through the hosting organization, such as SXSW, Sonic Guild, Russian Speaker Society of Austin, and others.

This park really does have something for everyone, whether you're a kid who's wanting to explore a playground, a tennis or pickleball player wanting to play a few games, a basketball court, sand volleyball court, outdoor workout equipment and lots of Green space to just chill. If you're looking to host events they also have covered picnic tables. A lot of people bring their dogs to play and the park even has a water fountain that's at dog height for when it's too hot out. There's also a ton of free street parking around. There is an elementary school next door so some of the free start parking is not allowed during certain hours.

It's a nice pool and the chemicals usually keep the pool in balance but some times in can be rather harsh. It's a great place to take my nieces and nephews when they visit. They have so much fun. The park has tennis courts and it's easy to play in and generally people are respectful of time. That pickleball thing is fun to watch and it's nice that they can have two games play on one tennis court. I have a terrible time with dogs off leash. I get that people love their pets but it's just not safe. The law is the law and it protects people from accidents. I've had two experiences where someone's dog has come running towards me off leash! I have no idea what that dog is going to do and hearing, "He's a good dog, he won't bite"! MEANS NOTHING TO ME. Anyway. It happened again this morning. I'll start carrying a walking stick.
