    Had to finally swing thru after seeing so many social media posts when they first opened. The…read morekiddos there with fam seemed to be having a good time. We came strictly for the gatcha claw games. Booked it on a $50 /175 credit game card, plus activation fee. Then realized their credits per try was 24 credits on the labubu so they definitely raking it. I've been to other gatchas where it's $10 for 7 tries. Much better value on authentic labubu. It's alright i get it make your money. Just wont be for us in the future. We did hit a sonny angel blind box though! They also have the pop mart blind boxes for resale in their prize section. Gotcha machines is on the right side, lines the one hallway toward the bathroom.

    Gatcha was exactly what made me drive 40 min to Square One Mall! I kept seeing videos of the…read morestuffed animals others would win from here, as well as LABUBUS!!! So, actually it was a bit underwhelming in person. Honestly, it's a very small space and didn't have that many claw machines in reality. I was under the impression that it would have rows and rows of machines filled with different prizes. Turned out to be only like 10-15 machines. If you win two small stuffed animals, it counts as a ticket toward a bigger prize you can redeem. If you win bigger stuffed animals, they can count as one or two tickets depending on which ones they are (they have labels on each machine). We decided to try our luck with $50/175 credits. The Labubu machines are honestly not worth playing, in my opinion. Unlike the neighboring machines, the claws for the Labubu boxes don't have grip (likely on purpose lol). Also, ~24 credits each play for the labubus, which is around $7 (3.5credits/$1 I'd get $50/175 credits). I've played claw machines for labubus that aren't Gatcha brand for much better prices. For example, $10 for 7 tries... which 7 tries here for labubu box claw machine would equate to ~$49. $10 vs $49, no bueno. Even though I didn't get to score a labubu this day, I did start off strong and hit a Cherry Blossom Sonny Angel on my first try, so that was great ;) Every time you win a prize from the claw machines, you have to notify the staff so that they can unlock the machine to give you your prize. Verdict: Would I come back again? Probably not. Pretty pricey for what it is and limited stuffed animal options.

    There's a lot I could say here but…read more.. I made a reservation at Lucky Strike days in advance because we were excited. Most of us hadn't bowled in years (or ever), and this was supposed to be a farewell outing for a friend. We left wondering, did that really just happen? It took forever to even be acknowledged. We ordered drinks, a pizza, and a sampler. The server suggested a pitcher deal (cool, thanks) only for the soda to come out tasting like straight carbonation with no flavor. Turns out the machine was broken. Fine. We asked for water, somehow that was a problem too. Our sampler? Never came. When we asked about it, the server really said "who did you order that with?" and then told us it wasn't her, while I'm sitting there knowing we ordered it with her. Instead of owning it, she argued. Wild. They "fixed" the soda machine and brought us flat soda. At that point, just take it away. We ordered lemonades instead which took 20 minutes and she (the manager) forgot one, then caught an attitude when we said something. When the sampler finally came, the chicken was literally falling apart and touched the table when they put it down. We ate the germs. The manager kindly told us she removed the pitcher from the bill and added the lemonades. That however, doesn't make up for bad food, worse service, and a completely ruined experience. We paid to be annoyed the entire time. I wouldn't come back.

    Having been do the Fenway location prior, I decided to head to Lucky Strike Somerville for a date…read morenight. Football season too so we wanted some place cool go watch the game with a fun activity and food--boom, Lucky Strike. Though they had a bowling special since it was a Sunday night of unlimited bowling after 7pm, we opted out as we were tired. Instead, we bought reloadable game cards to play on the machines. They have classic arcade games such as ski-ball, air hockey, and even pinball machines. Then there are some newer ones as well. I really liked the giant connect four and the pink panther game. Unfortunately a few games we played didn't work and I had to run around and find a staff member so they could fix my credits. After playing the games we headed over to the bar to catch some of the game and eat. They had booths all around the bar with QR codes on the table so you can order/pay from your phone and they bring it to you. There were TVs and projectors as well surrounding. Though the staff was nice the food took a long to go be prepared, and the place was empty during the snow storm. We ordered the appetizer sampler which was pretty good, but we didn't care for the chicken. I did like the pretzels and mozzarella sticks. Some other fun stuff they had included pool tables, shuffleboard, and a photo booth you could use by swiping your game card. Plus they have a prize room to redeem your tickets but it was closed.... Sadly it was quiet in there and I think had it been packed it would be more fun and lively. Overall it wasn't perfectly functioning with broken games and long waits for the food, but, we still had fun and we'd come back for bowling.
