Super fun location and great for birthday parties. I feel safe and letting the kids run lose to…read morehave fun while sitting off to one side. The team here is always super friendly. Kids of all ages and abilities have a great time. They have a wide range of activities including black light mini golf. They also maintain the games really well.. so as to make for a great overall experience. We love coming by here on whim and for parties.. great place to bring the kids when it's raining or just as an after school treat!

We played mini golf and played a few games. Parking was plentiful and the staff was helpful and…read morefriendly. It is a bit pricy for what you get but it was a nice break in the day. The mini golf is different. It is neon glow style and you can play with 3-D glasses but we didn't play with them. There are 9 holes with the last one being a ball collector so make sure you only use this when you are done. We may have played through a few times to get our moneys worth. Most of the games are a dollar or more per play which is hard for me as I am older and remember when games were a lot less but those are the times. We still had fun and will likely be back. We got a few tickets, around 2,000 but as typically we were not able to get much with our tickets. They do have a lot of options but just not much we were interested in.

My wife and I were in Mission Beach and we had $20 to use at the arcade, being that it is mostly…read moreticket games that we don't play, we decided to go to the photo booth with Marvel characters. We got it and it takes three pictures of you and we decided on an Avengers one. The picture turned out great, but when we printed it out, there was this big white vertical line down the right side. We brought it up to the lady behind the counter and she said she would get the IT guy. We waited about 5 minutes for someone to finally come around and he goes "It always does that" We expected a refund or something, but nothing. For $5 a picture, what a rip off. If it doesn't work "All the time" how about fixing it and putting an "Out of order" sign on it, so you don't waste $5 on a picture you can't use? Terrible customer service.

Horrible service, ok games. I took my kids here recently to play some games and bought a card…read morewhich you can use to play the games. When the card gets low, you can refill it. I used the card on one of the games but the game was not responding. I tried again and still no response. I decide to go to the counter to see if someone could either take a look at the game or if i could get the credits back. I get to the counter and see 3 or 4 workers just standing there talking, no one acknowledges me. I look around some more and see one worker on the far left helping some customers and another worker on the far right helping some other people. Ok, I'm assuming there's two lines and the 3 or 4 other employees are just taking a break or something. Not a big deal, so i get in the line to the far right. There is one person currently being helped, two teens and then me. The employee finishes with the first customer and then helps the two teens. He finishes with them and when he gets to me he just turns and walks away. He does not say a word, just turns and walks away. A simple "I'll be back in a minute" or even just putting your hand up and saying "gimme a sec" would be totally fine. Instead, no communication, just walks away. I told the group of 3 or 4 people just standing there that I needed assistance and one of them went to refill my card. As i was waiting the guy who was serving the line on the far left came over and asked if I needed help. He was really friendly (he looked Asian or Mexican). Anyways, he's the only reason I'm giving that place two stars instead of one.

Visitors can also play darts, ping pong, shuffleboard, cornhole, bocce ball, and even giant Scrabble. It's the ultimate hangout spot to enjoy with family and friends. I celebrated my 43rd birthday here and it was an absolute banger! Drinks were on point! Old fashioned was fire!!! Staff were friendly! And service was great! Bar tender was fast and efficient despite the crowds! We bowled for 2 hrs/$40 per person. And a pair of socks costs $7. Overall, the vibe was energetic and upbeat! Music was on point! We had an incredible night with friends and family! I will definitely be back to celebrate a few more birthdays here!!!

I would have loved to get involved in more of the activities and games, but the heat and humidity were really killing my energy. Just an hour in, the entire work team was dripping in sweat (I can only imagine how rough it was for the staff). To our understanding, the AC had been broken for over a week--plenty of time to at least get some big fans or whatnot to keep the air moving. Overall, I was really excited to check out this location, and it turned out to be a pretty unpleasant experience.

Belmont Park is one of those iconic beach places that you see on TV and movies and you're like is…read moreit really like that? Yes, yes it is! We picked mission beach specifically to ride the 100 or old roller coaster and we wrre not disappointed. It was $16 for us both to ride 1x each and it was fun. Its old. Its wooden. It creaks. It is worth it! Other attractions at BP looked neat but we specifically came for the coaster. There are tons of food options and some are sut down, some are fast food. Great date day!

Where do I start? I show up to purchase wristbands for myself and my 10-year-old and the cashier…read morewas very aggressive and intimidating. He shouted out the total for two wristbands and I let him know there was a different price online. He shouted out to purchase the wristbands online for that price. I walked away purchased the wristbands went back to pick up the physical wristbands. He scanned the barcode and put the wristbands on our wrist. And then with a smile said the list of rides that were closed. And then said " we are short staffed and due to that we do not have employees at the rides once they get here at 12:30 then you'll be able to get on the rides" I looked at my 10-year-old and said OK we'll go walk the beach and get a bite to eat until they open up. Guess what the staff never got there! Honestly, he thought it was funny when he told me that we weren't going to be able to get on rides until the other staff got there. There were a few rides like the mini dipper and the carousel. But who buys wristbands to get on a couple rides and then get on the bumper cart. If that's the case then I would've just bought individual tickets. LET YOUR GUEST KNOW AHEAD OF TIME IF YOU ARE SHORT STAFFED AND THE PARK WILL NOT BE RUNNING AS USUAL!! I had to keep looking for staff to let us on rides and then even then I wasn't able to get on every ride. I paid for a wrist band for myself and my daughter thinking that we were going to be able to enjoy the day but we were not. I do want to point out that I'm a single mom and low income and this was supposed to be something amazing for us. $100 to Belmont Park is absolutely nothing but for me it is. And just FYI, I a lot of people kept leaving the park upset. But for them, they didn't purchase wristbands. We waited till after 5 PM hoping that as the shift changed employees would come and open up all of the rides, but that never happened. I was hoping to get my money back for the wristband, but because the employee at the counter was so aggressive I was honestly afraid to go up and ask for a refund. I'm hoping Belmont Park will make this right and provide my daughter and I with an opportunity to return to Belmont Park at no charge to us and be able to get on the rides.

Kid friendly
Large group friendly

Timing is everything…read more They plan these huge collaborations on weekends which is great for accessibility but the poor staff is swamped trying to accommodate it's not fair to anyone The lines are insanely long during these If you want the green all you can play timer you can only add it with a team member in that long long which is very annoying you can reload everything else from your phone or a kiosk. Even Chuck E. Cheese lets you self add time even pause time to eat that would have been incredible for bowling Food takes forever but when I looked in the kitchen only 2 people were in the kitchen during that massive release Almost all the machines work which is impressive for an arcade this size there were very few left out of service so def kudos there

My family and I visited Round1 a few weeks ago, and overall, the experience was just okay…read more The facility itself is huge, with a large bowling area and plenty of arcade games to keep everyone entertained. We visited on a Friday afternoon, and it wasn't very busy. One thing to be aware of is that bowling is on a strict timer. By the time we paid, put on our bowling shoes, and selected our bowling balls, our 60-minute session had already been reduced. It would have been nice if the timer started once we actually began bowling. We considered extending our time, but the concession stand was completely out of food, which was surprising given that it was a Friday afternoon and the facility wasn't crowded. My mom and I also ordered glasses of wine, but unfortunately the wine tasted spoiled, so we didn't drink it. The waiter opened a new bottle of wine that tasted a lot better than the first glass. Overall, the experience didn't meet our expectations. While the facility has a lot to offer, the issues with the bowling timer, lack of food availability, and spoiled wine left us disappointed. We'll probably choose a different bowling alley the next time we're looking for a place to bowl.
