    Such a fun concept of a place! This location has bowling, axe throwing and an arcade. The arcade games could use a little updating as some did not work properly but we still had a lot of fun. We did axe throwing here too. They have a full menu with food and drinks, we only had drinks. This location is massive, definitely at really good place for a group!

    I was actually fairly impressed with this place. Having been to a few Dave and Busters, I tend to compare smaller establish to them. Came here for my going away get together with the girls I'd been working with for nearly 9 months. It wasn't busy. We kinda seated ourselves (weren't supposed to), but they were very kind and helped get us seated correctly. Drinks were served fast and the waitresses were accommodating to people showing up late. I ordered a buffalo chicken dip to share with the table and it was bomb. Soooo good. Almost wanted to seek out the recipe to make it myself. Almost. Ordered the Notorious PIG, which is a burger with pulled pork, onion rings, and bbq sauce. Was sooo underwhelmed. Burger was over done and the so was the pork. It had potential but didn't quite live up to it. They have a small arcade, and a section toward the back for small concerts I think. They also have a bunch of bowling lanes upfront. We got our shoes and paid at the back (or the near the outside entrance), price for one game and shoes was under $10 I believe. Auto scoring on the lanes and the pins are reset in the most fascinating way. Like pulled up by strings instead of the typical way I see them reset with the coasters. Was fun hanging with my coworkers in the alley and the guy serving was good. They piled good music overhead also and there were tv screens at the end of the lanes as well as the dining area. I thought this was a cool place to stop in. Not my usual going away pick, but it was relaxing and service was quick and friendly.

    We had never been to pins before. We decided to randomly stop in for a bite to eat, because it's basically your ONLY choice of food visiting the Kingston mall now. We were pleasantly surprised by the $5 happy hour menu. Tuesday-Friday 3pm-9pm. We ordered multiple items. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious! Bacon cheddar burgers were amazing! My personal favorite. Our server was also top notch, fun and friendly! Overall five star experience!

    Pinz in Kingston is good for an afternoon meal or a nice night out with the guys / Gurls or your significant other. The game room has a lot to do for the kids and gets expensive quickly. The staff are friendly and the food is good. It's also a fun place to see a concert when they have a local band or a national act cone through. So all in all I'd definitely say yes to Pinz

    Alley Kat Lane - Kingston, MA…read more I took my 4-year-old to Alley Kat Lane on March 25th for a much-needed break and some fun. We've had a little health scare recently, so we're making it a priority to keep him active and out of the house. I hadn't been to Alley Kat in years, so stepping back inside and seeing the updated arcade was exciting--especially because they have some of the coolest and most unique games around. And trust me, we've been to a lot of arcades in the area, so we know our games. We checked the hours beforehand--open until 10 PM. The parking lot was hopping, and you could hear the bowling balls crashing into pins from outside. But when we walked in, disappointment hit fast--the entire arcade was shut down. Just as I was about to give my best "are you kidding me?" face, I asked an employee about their usual closing time. And here's where the magic happened... They turned the entire arcade back on. Just. For. Us. If that isn't top-tier customer service, I don't know what is! Huge shout-out to Lucas, who went above and beyond. Not only did he get everything up and running, but he also took the time to chat with my son about his Venom shirt and favorite superheroes. The prize selection was another major win--no cheap Dollar Tree trinkets here. My son had his heart set on a giant gumball machine (2,000ish tickets), but after going all-in on the claw machines, we came up short. Luckily, they had a smaller but still awesome gumball machine for under 1,000 tickets, complete with gumballs. Honestly, I can't wait to go back. Part of me wants to gatekeep this hidden gem, but places that prioritize real customer experiences over money grabs deserve the recognition. Plus, the candlepin bowling and arcade are separate from the busier lanes, making it a perfect spot for families. So, if you're looking for a local spot that's not just another overpriced, overhyped entertainment center, Alley Kat Lane is it. And to Lucas and the rest of the amazing staff--my son said you made not just his day, but his entire life. We'll see you again soon!

We splurged for the ribs and brisket combo and it came tender, slow-cooked and tantalizing; and side sauces here are simply world class. (And there are plenty!) The atmosphere is rustic, friendly, and stay awhile chill. Eat inside, take out, cozy up to the bar, plop down on a picnic table outside near a firepit, or just bowl a few strings. Every way's a winner. Because at The Alley, they're committed to doin' it right, y'all, and it just plain shows!

    Absolutely terrible customer service. This place has so much potential, but the overall experience…read morewas incredibly frustrating. The staff seemed unprepared to handle the crowds, communication was inconsistent, and several employees responded to reasonable questions with unnecessary attitude. There was also no clear manager or supervisor available to address concerns. The reservation system is confusing and inefficient, which only added to the chaos. To make matters worse, nearly half of the arcade games were out of order or malfunctioning, and several took credits without working. It was disappointing to spend money on games that couldn't even be played. One particular young staff member was especially unprofessional--she spoke to customers disrespectfully, provided little to no clear information, and escalated frustration rather than helping resolve it. With better training, stronger leadership, properly maintained games, and a more organized reservation process, this place could be a great experience. Unfortunately, based on our visit, the customer service and overall experience fell far below expectations.

Having…read morebeen around since 1960, this place had seen better days by the '80s when I was in high school, and apparently continued that downward trend for a while. But someone clearly invested wisely in bringing this Rhode Island institution into the modern era. The updates are impressive and practical. Everything runs smoothly - from the quick ball returns and pin setups to the modern scoring system. They've switched to hourly rates instead of per-string pricing, which makes a lot of sense with their efficient setup. Their Monday-Friday special ($20 for an hour of bowling plus shoe rental) is a great deal - and thanks to how quickly everything runs, you can easily fit three strings into that hour, as we discovered when we overbooked for two! The facility itself is super clean, including the bathrooms (always a telling sign). They've covered all the bases for refreshments with both a proper bar/food setup and vending machines. The counter staff is friendly, parking is plentiful, and the whole operation runs like a well-oiled ball return machine. It's great to see a family entertainment spot that's both well-maintained and affordable. Lang's has managed to preserve its community bowling alley character while giving customers all the modern conveniences they expect. Perfect for family time or a fun afternoon with friends.
