I got their seasonal salad which was very fresh and I had a couple allergen modifications that they went above and beyond for. The other food at the table was your typical whatever 2-3/5 star food. Not bad for a bowling alley.

Disappointed. The food here is usually good. However this time I had a terrible experience. I took…read moremy brother out to lunch and we arrived at 12:20pm. We got our drinks and said we needed a couple minutes to decide on what we wanted. At this point there were two tables with people in the restaurant and one had their food already. At 12:40 a group of 12 people arrived and were seated. As we were waiting for our order to get taken we watched the waitress take the order of the 12 person party. Finally at 1:00pm our order was taken and the waitress apologized for the wait. At 1:20 the table with the party of 12 received all of their food. The waitress stopped by again and apologized again saying that she asked the cook to make our sandwiches first. This is the point where I asked for the bill. The waitress brought the bill and it was $51 for the food that we did not receive yet. I thought maybe they would take some of the price of due to the situation, but they did not since I didn't complain and was trying to keep my cool. Long story short, we got our food at 1:40 in take out boxes and I did still leave a 20% tip. We were late getting back to work and still didn't have time to eat our food. Only come here if you have at least 80 minutes to wait for your food

The portions are huge (hubs and I usually split something and it's plenty) and the service had always been very friendly. Yes it's a bar but in the morning, although busy, it's a nice atmosphere.

New to Midland. We enjoy trying out new restaurants/bars in the surrounding area. This place was…read morerecommended to us by a friend so we thought we'd give it a try. Staff is not friendly, food is average and overpriced. Tried to pay the bill and apparently they only accept cash so the waitress just pointed to the ATM machine. Thanks, there are plenty of other options, we will spend our money other places. I never leave reviews but I am so tired of paying for food/service that is subpar and just accepting it.

Do you ever wonder how there's some people you meet in life that you've never spoken to before and…read morethe first time they say something to you it's out of pure hatred despite never interacting with you before? That's the overall feeling of this place. There's only so many places I've been to where I've felt threatened by stares and could tell that nobody wanted me there just for existing. The owner who I can only assume I haven't seen sober yet has been very rude and off putting each time I went to that bar, at this point since you clearly hate your career why not sell the place and take that money to some other investment? Maybe if you have a kink for feeling uncomfortable and unwanted I'd see the appeal of this place and honestly if it was just this owners attitude I wouldn't even make this review. But it's not, the beers for some reason are $6 if not more for a bottle and there's only few select cities I've been to where I've paid that or more, so people clearly don't come here for cheap beer. I don't mean to disrespect the cook here either but considering how expensive that food is and having half of the menu be Mexican food is beyond me when it's not good either. At this point I truly feel sorry for the workers that have to stick it out at this place. So lastly we come to the fact that the bar only takes cash. I don't know any bar in the entire United States that only accepts cash, I have a feeling if you told the IRS to stop by the 702 would be no more. Last time I was there I decided not to drink alcohol and the owner looked visibly pissed, I got 2 pitchers of Diet Coke, soda, and I was charged $30 in cash for it. So clearly that's not normal and the owner hates me even though I haven't done a damn thing to anyone there. Truly this place fucking sucks and I wouldn't know why anyone on god's green earth would ever want to stop by

Brinstar is one of those places you walk into and immediately think, "yeah...I'm coming back."…read more If you're into retro vibes, this spot nails it. They've got a great mix of pinball machines, old-school arcade classics, and some newer games, so it doesn't feel like a museum, it actually feels alive. You can bounce between games, grab a drink, and just hang out without it feeling forced. What really surprised me though was the food. I expected typical bar food, but they go way beyond that. The brunch is legit, and the menu has some creative dishes that actually feel thought out, not just thrown together. It's the kind of place where you come for the games and end up staying for the food. The staff are super friendly and bring a fun energy without being over the top. It also strikes a nice balance crowd-wise. During the day, it's totally a spot you could bring your kids and let them have a blast, and later on it shifts into more of a social hangout where you can meet locals and vibe. Overall, it's just a really well done arcade bar that doesn't try too hard but still delivers on everything. Definitely worth checking out.

On a Thursday night, I ordered the Philly cheese steak and sweet potatoe fries. The fries were…read moreamazing and I love that they gave two different sizes baskets for it, one to hold the fries and another for ketchup. The Philly cheese steak however was disappointing. The meat was over cooked and dried. They placed onions and cheese on top. Maybe it's a personal preference but I like the cheese and vegetables mixed in with the meat. The bread was basic. I used a lot of ketchup so it would not taste/feel too dry while I was eating it. I did try one of their drinks and the Michigan Mule was very weak and flat, had ginger ale, to me. This is an arcade bar and had a lot of pinball machines. But it wasn't overbearing loud. There's cute gaming decor all around and the hallway to the bathroom is interesting to look at. They were full of drawing and random statements from previous customers. There were some children running around so def a place for all ages. I think this place is more about the pinball machines than the food. Haha. The waiter did a great job balancing our side of the building with huge parties. There is free parking out front.
