It was super cool in here not your average mini golf experience. The music was great and you could get drinks and food at the super cool bar in the front. There's a few different courses that you can choose from but on each hole, there's a mini game like trivia or spin the wheel that you play through mini golf which was pretty cool. Each hole records the strokes you take for you through the ball which was cool but sometimes the balls didn't work. Staff was super quick and helpful at replacing them so that was nice. We weren't sure if you could order drinks while on the put course but you could order drinks at the bar and bring them onto the course and there were little tables at each hole to put your things on. Overall a super cool place. read more

Such a fun place to hang out with friends, family, or even as a date night! My friend and I came on a Saturday afternoon and had made reservations the night before. I got the berry mule to drink and was able to bring it with me while we played on the course which was nice. There's 9 holes per course and is decently priced at $14 per person a game. The mini golf itself is very cool and super high tech. Since the balls have built in technology that allow them to be tracked, you can even go to different holes within your track in a different order if there are long lines for a specific hole which is nice. Overall, a super fun spot that I definitely will be coming back to! read more

Puttshack - Pittsburgh - Mini Golf Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Golf was fun. Barmaid with glasses extremely rude. Totally made our visit less pleasant

We went to Puttshack over Labor Day weekend and I'm still talking about it (and anxiously stalking our local location that's scheduled to open later this year). The Smallman Street location was easy to find and there's an inexpensive parking lot directly behind it, which is very convenient. We walked in since there appeared to be a lot of openings and had no issue logging in on the ipads and getting ready to play. Our group consisted of four adults and three eight-year-olds. This was hands down the most enjoyable mini-golf experience we have ever had (and I'm not just saying that because I won and had the day's high score). Each hole is so fun and unique with a new way to play each time you hit the ball. The trivia hole was definitely a group favorite. I also love that you can go in any order you want which makes the experience so much smoother. We did not try the food/driniks but did note a table at each hole which is an added bonus. read more

Our group of 20 come on a slow Wednesday in August. Our table server was courteous and attentive during our dinner service. They were out of several ingredients for cocktails and mocktails. We split up into smaller groups when we made reservations for playing a round of mini golf. According to the staff at the hostess stand, there is no way to pay for your game of golf separately at the kiosks. My group of 4 did a round on the Sapphire course. It is not typical mini-golf. It's more like an arcade game with each hole having a theme (beer pong, skeeball, connect four, trivia). And you can win bonus points or demerits so there's strategy involved and the player with the most points wins. It was a fun post-meal activity. It was a surprisingly clean space including the bathrooms. The music and lighting created a warm ambiance. It's a large space so coming on a less busy night was ideal as our group was easily accommodated. As it's located at The Terminal there is paid parking behind or free after 6 o'clock street parking out front. I enjoyed my first visit at this new establishment. read more

My nephew and I had such fun playing the hi-tech mini golf and the personnel couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Loved the day and I have told many people about it and I will return. Pat read more

Absolutely not worth it. First when you walk in I asked the hostess what do we do and she said we had to register online in one of the kiosks. Fine, but took forever and then I had to go back and say now what? She sent us over to two young gentleman and we said we never been here before and please explain. They said we can start wherever we like on the course . So we did and went through the 9 courses in only about 15 minutes. Then I was told our "score" would be sent to me. Where? I have no email or text with our score. We were in and out in of 25 minutes. Way to expensive and confusing and we aren't even old. Total ripoff. 24 hours later and still no score no idea who won. read more

Great place for mini golf - love the tech. There were about 4 different courses and different themes all around! Pretty easy to get a reservation - I booked it the day before for a Friday. You can take your drinks on the course, but no food. Service was okay - we got a drink at the bar and ended up waiting for a bit but the old fashioned tasted good! So excited to come back! read more

My boyfriend and I LOVE Puttshack! We are regulars at this point. Every time we go, I get a Porn Star Martini from the specialty cocktails and Chris always tries something new. We both recently have been getting White Russians. Destiny made it absolutely perfect last time. She was so sweet and personable. Every staff member we have encountered has been so kind and friendly. We are obsessed with the mini golf and trying new strategies every time we go. Always such a great time with great people and a cheap date night! read more

I went for my birthday and had a great time. I had an espresso martini and a porn star martini, both tasted amazing! me and my friends got 5 different foods to share between the 4 of us (edamame, buffalo chicken dip, pierogies, potstickers, and brussels sprouts) and I lived all the food. my only issue was the service was a little slow, other than that a great experience! read more

We saw this online and wanted to try out the food and play a round. We didn't give ourselves enough time to eat AND play though before our next timed ticket to somewhere else so we had to leave before we could play. But our food was good, hot and came out fast! Parking was not the greatest but there are paid lots you can park in. ($10). I didn't look to see if it was metered but I believe there is some free parking right in front of the shops. It was packed on a rainy Saturday afternoon so we found a gravel lot to park it. I'm giving it a 4 just because we didn't play golf. read more

Tried Puttshack for the first time tonight and I'll leave my reviews below. Ambience/Atmosphere: 10/10. We LOVED the entire vibe in here & the different rooms if you wanted a little more privacy! Game Experience: 10/10. SO MUCH FUN & nothing like it. No issues at all & we loved how everything was automated and electronic so we didn't have to worry about anything except having FUN! Staff: 10/10. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. No issues at all. Service was a little slow, but it just opened two days ago, so I'm sure there's a small learning curve!! :) Food and drink: I honestly would give like a 2/10 : The food and drinks were very overpriced and pretty mediocre. We got the Bao buns, Buffalo chicken dip, and chorizo & cheese empanadas. Unfortunately, It felt very much like microwaveable food. I wanted to get a flat bread, but they did not look appetizing AT ALL. I ended up not getting anything other than our apps! Drinks, too, we're overpriced. We both got the MULE and thought it was awful . It was so gingery? we couldn't even drink it, it tasted like I was drinking cologne- is how I would best describe it. We tried the Hennessy drink at the bar next, to give the cocktails another try, and it was TOO SWEET!! Tasted like straight sugar. We ended up just getting seltzers after that.....It was kind of a waste of money and we won't be back to eat or drink probably :( There are lots of great restaurants and cocktail bars in the strip so I will probably look to do that next time!! read more

Went back again to try a few more items on the menu. I tried their grilled chicken sandwich and an loaded potato egg roll (not sure what it was called on the menu). The chicken sandwich was delicious and very filling. I was only able to eat half. French fries come with the sandwich and they were warm and crispy. The food was excellent along with the service. Our waitress was amazing and went above and beyond. read more

The Puttshack is such a fun spot for a date or family outing! The four different courses are super interactive and so much fun! My boyfriend and I bought two courses and had so much fun we decided to do all 4. It does randomly select your course for you, but if you get a repeat the worker stationed by the courses will switch your group for you :) The workers were super helpful and nice! One even offered to buy a course for us! We also decided to have an appetizer before we headed to our reservation at another nearby restaurant. The buffalo chicken dip was super delicious! I highly recommend this place and had such a great time. Definitely will be back next time we are in the Pittsburgh area. read more

My 27 yr old's birthday, he chose Puttshack. Puttshack has a great ambiance, but if you're playing mini golf.. Party of 4 = $50+ One round of drinks = $50+ Do the mathematics, this place is $$$$. read more

Really fun date for my husband and I! Definitely recommend. Staff were very friendly, putt-putt was different than anywhere I've been, good service. read more

We saw this place while walking the terminal in the strip district and decided to give it a try based on the AC alone. It was busy with others doing the same, but we were able to make a reservations and grab drinks right away. We enjoyed the first 9-hole course so much we stayed for a 2nd round. The employees were kind and helpful, a waitress magically appeared right as we finished our drinks and was ready to bring another round. The courses were very clean, and the electronic score keeping was cool and helped to move the game along. Would definitely come back again to try the food. read more

A fantastic new spin on putt putt! Rather than the typical easy, same old mini golf course, Puttshack adds excitement, moderate difficulty, and more interactivity to the game. I love how the ball itself keeps track of the number of strokes, no need to keep track and do math at the end to determine the winner. They have 3 different courses, which you're automatically assigned when you make a reservation. On our course, my favorite holes were the Trivial Pursuit and Bowling Alley. The Trivial Pursuit course asks you a question based on the category you aimed for, then you select the hole with the correct answer. The Bowling Alley course has you aim for the number of "pins" you want to knock down. Very fun and different elements to a classic game! On every course, there's a "super hole" that leads your ball directly into the hole if you hit it. It's cool, but also makes the course a bit too easy if you're good at golf. While you play, bartenders walk around taking orders too so you don't need to leave your game or friend group. Definitely recommend coming here with friends or family, it's a blast! Just a bit expensive to come very often. read more

Food was delicious, my wife and I both had the OG and it was cooked to perfection. Our 2 kids loved their meals as well and the portion size was on point. Our server was exceptional and the complete opposite of what we experienced recently at restaurants we visited. Believe it or not his first question when taking our order was "any appetizers or anything you would like to come out first?" The mini golf portion was just as awesome. I think there were 4 different courses but we only did the 'Amber' and 'Emerald' which were fun and the structured setup they have makes the experience that much better. Lastly, if you park out front make sure you back into your spot! read more

Very fun but we finished in about 15 minutes. It was very short and you only get to play one of the "colored" courses. Although, I would go again. read more

Putting shack was pretty fun and the courses are cool. The electronic scoring is pretty awesome. One of the holes is broken. Wouldn't pick up the signal which was pretty disruptive. The biggest issue here is the bathrooms are disgusting. They're all broken. No one's fixing them there's no soap in the sinks that has to be better. read more

Amazing find! The food and drinks were incredible, I'd definitely give their garlic fries a try if you're a garlic fan! Their drinks were dangerously good, couldn't even taste the alcohol in them. Our waitress was amazing, such a sweetie and very attentive. Our only issue was the actually putting. We were super excited to play after we ate, but there was a waiting list and we weren't aware of that. If we wanted to play, we had to wait hours which wasn't convenient for our plans. Otherwise it was a nice place and the ambiance was fun and friendly! read more

Rounding up here. I'd rather give it 3.5 stars. We went as a family with little kids - will probably return. I consider myself pretty smart and still felt confused by the whole thing. The technology didn't work on a couple holes and resulted in a long wait (20 minutes at least!) at one of the holes. You don't have to go in order, but this was one of the last 2 holes for us. It was so frustrating. The course was really crowded and people were waiting everywhere. I just wish they would have capped the maximum number of golfers in the building so we could have had more space and time to hang out and really understand what was going on. read more

Lots of fun, good food and d drinks. Drinks are pricy but that's everywhere downtown. Loved the 80s feel of the pit courses and the music that was played. I def would go back with more friends. read more

Golf was very fun. Great concept and despite being very busy, the golf moved nicely. The bar was very slow. We had 15 minutes before our tee time and stood at the bar for 20+ just to get a drink. We had dinner after golf- food was very good, but we had a reservation for 6:30 and did not get seated until after 7:00. I would recommend Puttshack, but just be prepared to wait for bar and dining. read more

The course was fun and environment lively. But the service is horrible despite having a lot of workers. The hosts we're not polite, bartenders ignore people waiting for drinks, and the staff on the course was not helpful. Seems like bad management. But uts a fun spot if they can figure that out. read more

I'm thoroughly disappointed that I wasted a meal eating at Puttshack. I ordered the Cali chicken sandwich and elected to pay $2 extra for a side garden salad. After ordering, the food took over an hour to arrive to our table. There was no crowd in the dining area to warrant the wait. Once the food finally arrived, I was instantly disappointed. The side salad was made of a bit of chopped iceberg lettuce, a few cubes of carrots, and small slivers of cucumbers. It was drowning in dressing. Someone at my table said "My daughter's school lunch side salad looks better than that." The bun of the sandwich was so hard I could not eat it. The chicken breast was so small and severely dry. The sandwich was to come with avocado on it and there was barely any - only one small piece on one half of the sandwich. The waitress returned to our table and asked if I was "done picking" to which I replied "yea, this was really hard to eat." She promptly picked up my plate with a full bun, partial chicken, and salad soup and walked away without a response. The minigolf might be fun but stop at any other restaurant before you play. Although I can't say for sure because we didn't have time to play after our long wait at the table. read more

We had lunch here yesterday.I had a Thai salad that was delicious.My daughter had a hamburger she said was really good.My husband had a flatbread.I took a bite of it and the crust was not good at all.The waiter was excellent and service exceptional.We played 2 9-hole courses.It was a lot of fun.Itvwss very organized and we went through with no problems.It was a little pricey,that is my only complaint.I would recommend for a fun afternoon. read more

Putt shack was great and a very unique mini golf experience! It's very high tech with the ball tracking automatically the amount of putts it takes and calculating score. The courses are small but very well done and the bonus points and hazards makes each hole unique and challenging. The staff was super friendly and accommodating as well and always there to help. read more

Very disappointed there was only 9 holes and it cost us 60 dollars for four of us. Also 4 apps cost is another 60 I got the ceme brûlée and the top was soft and liquidy. The staff wasn't very helpful with the fact it was our first time there and the waiter was terrible didn't even ask us if we wanted another drink. I guess if your not ordering alcohol your not a priority. Probably won't return. read more

If you have food allergies, do not go here! They will put you at risk! They make no concessions and will not even speak with you. World class chef's always come to the table when a food allergy requires discussion. The best restaraunts in Pittsburgh have amazingly kind and caring chefs. Not this overpriced, poorly managed franchise. We spent what should have been a wonderful evening with a party of five for a birthday. The total bill was over $250. We paid without complaint, didn't make a scene, and were very nice to the wait staff. We even tipped well. But, we a member of our party has a food allergy. The waitress was nice and seemed to understand the allergy and took it back to the kitchen. When she returned, the executive chef sent the waitress back with only one option: the hummus. Hummus loaded with so much garlic it's disgusting. The hummus arrived and it actually had whole chickpeas on top coated with the specific allergen we just asked about. And they wouldn't let us walk across the street to get food for this person so they could eat with us. The executive chef never came out to discuss the allergy, and frankly got the menu item wrong. I pointed it out to the waitress and we were given no apology and no money off our bill. The chef NEVER came out to apologize or acknowledge or offer a solution. We asked to speak to the manager and were told "The manager was busy". We left. We called two hours later to talk. The manager never came to the phone. He called today and called my wife rude. She never raised her voice and never was mean. She tried to explain and told her she was rude for calling the chef a liar. GM litteraly said, "What do you want me to do? Accomodate your allergy?" These were his exact words. EXACT WORDS. Well, the executive chef is either a liar or ignorant because the allergen was on the hummus. The general manager is rude and couldn't care about the customer experience. I will be contacting their franchising office and the franchise owner. The GM should be fired and the chef should work where people aren't the priority, like a fast food chain somewhere. Sure the golf is fun, but if you can't be kind to someone calling to provide honest feedback, and explain their experience, then the customer isn't the problem, you are. 1 STAR!!! If I could give negative stars I would. read more

This place has the potential to be great but really falls short in delivery. The courses are crammed together, there's no good place to stand. Traffic blows when you're just trying to walk past. The waits are LONG. Lastly, the bar service is so bad. For the amount of staff they have, you shouldn't have to wait for more than 3 minutes. Wife waited 15 minutes twice. First time, she gave up. Second time, they got our drinks wrong. Puttery is better. read more
