Pins is my top choice whenever we host visiting friends. The mix of free and paid games adds to the fun, and duckpin bowling is always a blast--plus, the freedom from bowling shoes is a bonus. While the cocktails tend to lean toward the sweeter side, I typically opt for wine instead. It can get pretty loud inside if you're not into too much noise. And another bonus is that dogs are allowed!!!

There were lots of fun things to do here for kids and adults. The pin bowling was very entertaining. We also tried the pinball machines and ping pong.

Had a kids birthday party here. Great service!! Great price!! Overall awesome for an event! The following week we went as a family, and still awesome service. Great price. Lots to choose from.

Great place, but always packed and Google doesn't show that. An hour wait is not "a little busy".

So much fun for the whole family, especially the teenagers! Very reasonable prices and many free options. Nice bar with delicious fun choices. Nice people. Super clean and well taken care of place.

I took my wife to eat at a nearby restaurant for her birthday, then happened upon this place as we were walking around and just exploring the area afterwards. Decided to go in and see what it was about, and so glad we did! It turned out to be a great time, and made for a much more exciting birthday than just a fancy dinner and drinks. We were there on a Monday evening, so for the purchase of a couple drinks we were able to play the games for free. I have never been much of a bowler, but the miniature bowling proved to be a lot of fun with many laughs. Before we left, we went up to the rooftop bar/lounge and sat outside around the rooftop firepit. Really cool place with some fantastic staff! Would definitely come again.

Awesome place to hang out and play some games. Relatively kid friendly for a bar type area. Well lit and clean

DO NOT BOOK AN EVENT HERE.This is a fun place to go, but if you make a reservation for an event, it is extremely expensive. You basically pay $200 for just a table to put your stuff on, and another $200+ for games. On top of that, there is a drink minimum you have to meet and they don't have food either, so you're basically pressured to drink. The drink minimum is the same for 15 guests all the way up to 30. That doesn't make sense. I had fun but I did not think it was worth $600+ for a small party. We will not be booking any events here in the future. Waste of money. I would only consider doing it again if it were a much lower price.

Cool gimmick but if it was actually fun there would be duckpin alleys everywhere not 10 pin alleys. Probably fun if your a child or retarded.

Great place to hang out. I had my birthday with friends. They don't have food so go to the garage first.

We enjoyed two hours of duckpin bowling and the pinball machines for my daughter’s 10th birthday. They allow you to bring in food and have a wide assortment of beverages for sale. Our crew loved the slushies! The music was popping and it was a fun, party vibe. Kids are welcome until 9 pm with plenty of activities including ping pong, Jenga, bocce ball and more. The staff was attentive and helpful. We will be back!Kid-friendliness: Fun environment for kids and adults until 9 pm when the 21+ age restriction is enforced.

Came with four of our friends for a Saturday afternoon. Kid friendly during the day. The wait for bowling was too long so we tried a few others of the free activities. Hookie was fun, it's in the corner by the bar. You get points by throwing large rubber bands at a board with hooks. More fun than it sounds and harder than it sounds. We also played Patio pong. It's a larger version of beer pong without the alcohol. The "cups" are trash cans and the balls are larger as well. We had a really good time. I don't try any of the cocktails or drinks but they all looked really good.

Nothing special. Every time we have been here, it's overbooked.
