Every time I pop through I always leave with a handful of Xbox games for a cheap price tag. Absolutely recommend this spot. What makes it icing on the top is the fact it's a local, small business. No big corporation, no unfriendly staff, just a guy and an awesome spot. I've never had any problems with my games not working, but the way Jeremy runs his business, if I did I know things would get fixed promptly. I highly advise giving GamesturzRetail a chance! 5 Gaming Stars out of 5!

On Mondays their drink special is $5 for any draft, what a steal! We all enjoyed a drink and a few games. I love the decor and vibes in Boxcar, the artwork is really punk and cool looking. My favorite game, The Lucky Duck, was broken (the claw wouldn't extend far enough to reach any ducks). I reported this to a staff member and she let me pick out any 2 ducks I wanted! The Pokemon pinball was fun too, I love the variety of pinball machines.

The gentleman that helped us at the front desk was very friendly and even allowed us to take a bottled water on the course and boy was I glad because it was hot. As a general rule though I dont think drinks are allowed. We didn't really venture in to the other areas so we cant speak to them. The course was challenging and fun and is very affordable. Only suggestion would be to update some of the greens as with some of the seams splitting it caused some precarious issues with putts and making par. The landscaping was beautiful although some of the ivy was creeping onto the courses. We bring our grandkids to the lake occasionally and now that we know about Adventure Island we will definitely be back.

Frankie's Review - 3/5…read more While in town, we decided to visit Frankie's after it was recommended to me by my boss, and this time I had my husband and 12-year-old son with me. Overall, it was a nice way to spend time together as a family and gave us something fun to do during our visit. Frankie's offers a good variety of attractions, and my son especially enjoyed the rides, including the claw, roller coaster, and zero gravity experience. We also played putt-putt golf, which was enjoyable, though I personally found the course a bit less challenging than similar places I've visited before. The road course was also on the shorter side, but still fun for what it offered. One thing I would note is that the pricing felt a bit high, particularly for the arcade games and rides, especially considering some of the experiences are fairly brief. We also found the pizza to be a little overpriced, so we chose other food options as well as their burger and Philly cheesesteak. Unfortunately, one part of the experience that stood out in a less positive way was the customer service around some of the attractions. Several of the attendants seemed very nonchalant and disengaged, almost as if they were not very happy to be there. That kind of energy can affect the overall atmosphere and, for me, made it less likely that I would return or recommend it. We also had to wait for attendants to assist with some of the more interactive 3D-style games, which interrupted the flow of the experience. That being said, one of my personal favorites ended up being the carnival 3D shooting game, even though we did have to wait for an attendant before we could play. Once we got on, it was definitely one of the more enjoyable parts of the visit for me. On the positive side, it was not crowded during our visit, which made the experience much more relaxed and enjoyable. I especially enjoyed spending time in the arcade with my family, and that ended up being one of the highlights of our visit. I also want to mention our experience in the bar area with Olivia Jackson, who provided such warm and pleasant service. She was courteous, attentive, and truly showed genuine Southern hospitality. Her kindness and professionalism made us want to stay longer, and we ended up enjoying our food and family time even more because of her. She was definitely one of the bright spots of our visit. Overall, while I have visited similar entertainment venues that I personally enjoyed more, Frankie's still provided a decent family outing and a different experience while we were in town. I would rate it 3 out of 5 stars.

Well I can say that ate and played more games than drank. The food here was surprisingly really good. I ate at the Chill Lounge Bar area and the bartender provided such amazing service this night. It's too bad I cannot remember this man's name but he was awesome. My friend and I ordered chicken quesadillas, French fries, and a slice of pizza. The bartender told us the food would be really good, but of course we expect some bias. He wasn't wrong! And the portions are pretty large btw. We could have shared the quesadillas. We both took half of them home and shared the fries. Everything was fresh and hot and I will certainly return with a group. Of course the games were a blast. Had an amazing time with ALL ADULTS btw playing laser tag and go karts lol we were like big kids again. Laser tag was so much fun. As soon as they split us up into teams and let us into the area, it was like kids on a playground again. Overall, it was an awesome time. I'd even suggest team-building activities for corporate here if possible.

Played the arcade games for a while and yes more expensive than Chuck E. Cheese haha but my kids enjoyed getting some plushies out from the claw machines and playing the virtual game . We reserved 1 lane for bowling the tables there were a bit too close together but that's probably expected since it's a small area with high stools and we have 3 small children so we finished bowling then went to the main area to get a table with regular seating to eat . The staff was really attentive and friendly took our order and the food was out pretty quickly. We ordered wings , fries and mac and cheese all very good . All in all we had a great time .

I have enjoyed many visits to this establishment with family and friends. The concept is fun, the…read moreatmosphere is great, and it's always been one of our favorite places to stop after our book club meetings. Unfortunately, after several consecutive negative experiences with the same server, I feel compelled to leave this review. My cousin and I regularly attend a local book club and often visit afterward for a treat and a night out. During multiple recent visits, we were consistently ignored, had difficulty getting service, and felt unwelcome. We continued to tip despite the poor service and initially tried to give the benefit of the doubt, but after experiencing the same treatment repeatedly, we finally decided to politely ask whether there was an issue. The server, Lexi, immediately became defensive and claimed we were receiving poor service because we "don't tip." This accusation was completely false. We have receipts showing that we have tipped on our visits, and my cousin even pointed out that she and her husband had recently celebrated their anniversary there and left a 30% tip. In response, Lexi made a comment questioning why my cousin was there with another woman if she has a husband, implying that she was being unfaithful. Regardless of anyone's relationship status, sexuality, or personal life, that kind of assumption is inappropriate, unprofessional, and entirely unrelated to providing customer service. The comment left us feeling judged and deeply uncomfortable. I do want to acknowledge that the manager handled the situation very well once it was brought to their attention. They listened to our concerns, treated us respectfully, and generously covered our tabs. I genuinely appreciate how professionally the manager responded. However, the experience itself was unacceptable. No guest should be treated differently based on assumptions about their personal life, nor should they be repeatedly ignored and then blamed for it. Because of these repeated experiences and Lexi's behavior, I will not be returning if she remains employed there. I hope management takes this feedback seriously, because this establishment deserves better representation from its staff.

Several of the axe throwing stalls were open so we started there. Then we did the pirate putt putt, and it was amazing! The effort they put into the decorations and hole designs was evident. Next we tried out the arcade area, which is much larger than you would think from the outside. From there we tried the second putt putt area with a retro feel; even the music was spot on. We wrapped up with mini bowling and had a blast. The food is reasonably priced but nothing special. We would have spent more if they had a kitchen/ grill like you would find at a bowling alley. The drinks ranged from bottled water to sports drinks to soda to alcohol. Overall the building and equipment were clean and well maintained. The staff were very nice and helpful. The majority of the building is accessible, including the multi-stall bathrooms and activities like mini bowling. Other than the gendered multi-stall bathrooms there are several single stall gender neutral bathrooms but only one was in service when we went. The single stall bathrooms are located inside the entrance to the retro putt putt, inside the arcade area, and just before you get to the VR area.
