I will it becoming back to this place the refs are lazy and useless, and a bunch of cheaters that don't call their hits and when you hit them a few more times with extra babies, you're considered overshooting and make you sit out a game, which is bullshit very unprofessional place

(4 just to reflect that I can't speak toward their airsoft or lazer tag as I did not try it and that is their main offerings). I went to BattlegroundZ for the first time this summer to participate in an art market. I thought it was a surprising choice of venue, but they had so much space to accommodate multiple rooms of vendors, a raffle table, nonprofit table, and a room for film screenings. Full bar and an area to sit down and eat. My kids had to come with me for the duration of the market, so it was a bonus for them that there are some arcade games. I showed up earlier than the scheduled time but the staff still let me come in and helped me find my booth area. My husband dealt with the counter staff for chairs and the bartender for food and drinks and said all the staff were super friendly.

Completely unprofessional business, publicly humiliated myself and girlfriend. Battlegroundz hosted an open to the public event (vendor market) coordinated by an outside person and allowed for that person to utilize the business to publicly humiliate us. The person coordinating the event had a personal issue with our presence there (a non-violent, non-disruptive issue at that) and told Battlegroundz to have us removed. We were approached by two Battlegroundz security in a very public manner who informed us that our presence was not wanted and we needed to leave. We asked why and they responded "due to issues at the venue in the past". Neither of us had been to the venue before, which we informed, to which they responded "don't shoot the messenger" and again prompted us to leave. We left without issue but were followed with more humiliation as the two security followed us closely behind to ensure we left, despite us not giving any sign that we were going to resist or even just allowing us to leave with some dignity while they visually watched rather than walking us to the door as if we had done some sort of action that warranted the response. If the business wanted to honor the request of the person coordinating the event, it could have been handled in a much different way, avoidant of any sort of humiliation or public shaming. I called Battlegroundz to speak to management about how it was handled, they continued to state the coordinator of the event, who is not an employee of the business, did not want our presence, to which I reminded that the way they handled this reflects on their business, no matter what that person desired. They refused to offer any sort of understanding of how that made us feel or acknowledgment of how it could be handled differently. If your operating a business you need to actually operate it like a business. Treat people respectfully, especially those who are treating your business respectfully. There was no signs that this was a "private event", doors of the business were wide open and inviting, so to be disrespected and humiliated for showing up to your business due to someone you are affiliated with completely baffles me.

I went there with a friend having never been before. We got our ammo and went to the back to get our safety vests and goggles. There were people in full tactical looking gear with confederate flag patches and take German police vests. The guy behind the counter warned us that one of the refs was being disrespectful to guests when I pressed him he said he was getting into people's faces and swearing at them. We decided that the whole place was giving us a very bad feeling and decided not to participate. We asked for a refund and the manager said no. After we explained why he said he couldn't work there credit card machine to give a refund if he wanted to because it was too new to him. I was going to write them personally, but they don't have an email address. The manager gave us credit to the arcade, but we are interested in going back to that place.

I'll start by saying that I don't usually review places unless their really good or really bad. This place is the best! Friendly staff, great refs, and helpful community. Food is reasonably priced, unlike usual activity bars. I recommend this place to anyone!!!

The staff was very rude. We went for my little brothers birthday and they made us wait twice to play Gel Blasters. We waited 30 minutes just for them to make us wait again for a birthday party yet we had already been in line waiting. They gave us all of our gear and told us to put it on then told us to take it off cause we had to wait. The food was extremely overpriced, the dodgeball area is in a back corner and is smaller than ever. It is not worth the money, go to LaserGate or United Skates of America instead.

again!! do not book here!! $600 in the drain from a $290 party. no communication during the party. you will be nickel and dimmed for everything. meghan is as useless as a white crayon. doesn't have a single answer for anything and "said she'll talk " to the host on how to better explain and communicate better. *dont ask for a water *adults who join there children in laser tag youre host is being charged * dont assume anything they do for you is them just being human you will be drained

Great field, good food area, laser tag is fun. They keep it all clean. A couple complaints. One guy leaf blows while we are sitting in staging area and it's gross cause dirt goes in the air. They don't play enough game theme modes. They need more. Some other players get out of control but the refs kick them out immediately. One player threatened me for hitting him and then full autoed me. Then cried that he was getting kicked out and I wasn't. It's because you switched your gun to full auto in front of the ref. The refs enforce the rules here which I like and is why I will be back and recommend this field.

I've been going here for 4 plus years people complain about me not calling my hits. iv always called my hits. there upset beacose I keep killing them it's really simple. me and this other person shoot each other and he continues to shoot me after I'm out. I looked at him with my arms out and he keeps shooting(keep in mind the ref was watching the whole time) I then turn around and light him up. he shot 20-30 times when I was standing still. so I shot him back. the ref throws ME of the field and the other person gets to continue to play. I went to ask why I was thrown off the field the ref ignored me and walked away when he could clearly hear me. I went to the Manager to ask for my money back oilr something he said the same thing(understandable for that place tho) then a random a girl ref comes from nowhere saying I threatened someone. I asked her who I threatened she just looked down and did not say anything. I was told I got warned be this( I didn't at all ) I don't cheat in airsoft, I never have cheated and I never will. this is frustrating because the other person did not get in any trouble what so ever and I admit shooting him as much I did was rong of me. I will probably go back there but if anything happens like that again I will not be going back. I'm trying to shine light on this not try to hate on them.
