    Visited Albatross recently with my fiancé. We had always wanted to go since they had opened last year and finally decided to go for a recent date night last Friday. We had arrived and after a brief a check with security we checked in on the machines and decided to go bowling. They have bowling and mini golf options. We decided to book a bowling suite for 90 minutes and it had a shorter wait time. We had rented shoes and waited for our check in time. We walked further in and there was plenty of space and bar to wait until our reservation time. There was also a DJ playing an awesome set! We had ordered drinks I got a honey espresso martini and new fashioned. The drinks came out quickly and headed to the bowling desk for our shoes and then we were lead to our bowling suite. The suite was pretty cool. It was spacious and had comfy couches and a table. Our waiter took our order and we started to bowl. It was fun and interactive to play and they had some games you can play. There were also screens above the pins that was playing the World Cup and the Yankees game. Our food can quickly and we got an appetizer sampler that had fried pickles, mac and cheese bites, boneless chicken bites, and fries with various dipping sauces. We also got a bar pie with pepperoni, bacon, and ham. Everything was delicious and the small apps were perfect for bowling. Our waiter was super attentive and checked on us frequently. We had a great time and we definitely will be back again even though I'm not a that good at bowling. Great place for a date night or with a group of friends.

    Great photo op

    Overall it's a great concept - bowling, miniature golf, bar, DJ, dinner, small bites. The place is entirely too crowded. We waited 2 hours for the lanes. The miniature golf was another line. They don't accept reservations in the weekend. The small bites we had were mediocre, the drink prices are a bit steep. If you decide to go I would recommend super early. The parking is average considering the way times. They also have the option of renting a private area for more intimate experience.

    Family fun night! My first visit. You can't make reservations in advance. We walked in and sat at the restaurant area waiting for my daughter and her fiancée. Daughter suggested we get bowling alley reservations. Hubby and I had to ask how to that. Kiosks in the entrance hallway- have to provide credit card and everyone's shoe size!!! We arrive around 530pm First available bowling alley was 740pm. Tried mini golf and told it was closed. You get a receipt with your reservation. We were a party of 7 when everyone arrived. Menu included pizza and snack/ appetizers type foods. Beers and cocktails. My brussel sprouts were actually really good- first time eating with sliced apples. We had to call over the Server a few times. We checked in at the bowling counter. We were escorted to the 2 lanes. Bowing was fun. Music, the visuals in the screens were amazing. We didn't try it due to the long line but there was a free "Photo Booth" area. Bathrooms many stalls had no toilet paper and garbage cans over flowing with garbage. I alerted staff toilet paper was needed in bathroom. Parking on site. It was a great family night with our 3 kids and their finances - because we were together. But expensive over $500. Not something I would routinely do due to cost.

    First time here to do a promo for Tito's. Amazing ambiance. This place is way better than it looks on ig. A bunch of bowling lanes. Great food. Amazing kitchen staff and drinks that are so good! Best espresso martini i had in a while!

    This is a very unique and luxurious bowling experience. They have bowling, mini golf, a bar area, dining, and a free photobooth. My friend had her 30th birthday party here and we decided to bowl for 2 hours. With shoe rentals it came out to $41/pp. Definitely more on the pricey side. With that being said it is the most upscale bowling I have ever experienced. There are big LCD screens that go across the whole alley with intricate videos playing. When you bowl it shoes how many pins you've knocked down on the large screen above your lane. That means if you bowled a gutter, it low-key blasts you in front of everyone in the alley that you rolled a gutter but the same goes for if you get a strike or a spare. Additionally, on the small TV screen above your lane it often displays statistics but they kind of sound passive aggressive if you suck, haha. For example, it may say "Ashley's average first frame bowl is 0 pins." It's cool and funny. The one gripe I had was getting our shoe rentals. There is no indication that there needs to be only 1 line when there are multiple people manning the station so it just seems disorganized. We waited in line for about 10-15 minutes which meant we were missing bowling time we booked. Lastly, when we did get up to get our shoes they ran out of many of the shoe sizes due to the bowling alley almost being full. We ordered both drinks and food. Our lane specifically ordered the carnivore pizza and the calamari. I loved the tequila marinara dipping sauce that came with the calamari as it was unique. However, the calamari you could definitely tell was previously frozen and not fresh. It came out warm on the outside but cold on the inside. I'm not sure if they didn't fry it long enough, or they let it sit in the window because they wanted this and the pizza to be delivered at the same time. The pizza was sicilian style square slices and was definitely protein packed. The only downside was that it was super greasy/oily. I could pat it down with multiple soaked napkins. For the drinks I got the lychee martini which was strong and fruity. My husband and a friend ordered the whole number 5 which came with a shark inside. My husbands had absolutely no alcohol and tasted like juice while our friends was not strong at all. Overall, I would come here again to experience minigolf and maybe bowling one more time. It seems like due to opening recently they are still trying to find their groove with efficiency and consistency.

    Visited Albatross for a friends birthday dinner and it was a TIME! We started with small bites and a cocktail before our bowling reservation time. The space is absolutely stunning! High ceilings, music blasting throughout the venue, so many photo worthy moments, I can definitely see how you can spend hours here. You can also play mini golf but we came for bowling. The bowling lanes are modern and we had our own waiter which made trying their drinks so much easier. I saw so many birthday celebrations happening this day along with just friends meeting up to have a good time. I would come back here, just make sure you have a reservation so you have a seamless time here!

    Entrance for bowling side

    Came here for my cousins birthday over the weekend. From looking on their website, I knew this place was going to be very esthetically pleasing! There was so much to look at starting from the mirror along the hallways entrance. As you enter, there is security, which I always appreciate. There is also guest services near the entrance where you can buy your tickets for bowling or mini golf. Mini golf was $22 and you had two choice, Hollywood which were the "Front 9" holes and Destinations or the "Back 9". For bowling, pricing was $44 for 90 minutes or $60 for 2 hours. I have only been here once so I'm not sure if pricing is different on weekdays vs the weekend. Albatross also has great drinks and food! I had been doing Dry January and enjoyed a Heineken 0, but it not, I would have loved to try their Blood Orange margarita or spicy mango marg. The place was lively and the DJ was soooo good! Our party was up, dancing and singing the entire time! He played an amazing mix of R&B, throw backs and Latin music. There was a bit of complication, due to the fact that they can only split the bill in two and we had a large party, around 20 people. But understandable and a lot of places are like this. One suggestion would be to place an atm inside which would help alleviate the stress of a 2 card split bill for large parties. Aside from this, I definitely think I will return!! Thank you Albatross for a very fun Saturday night!

    Jersey Shore Pie (Half)

    This was a very modern and unique spot that offered premier bowling and miniature golf. They also had a restaurant and bar area. I will only comment on the food at the restaurant. They had pizzas and bar bites. For appetizers, two orders of traditional wings were ordered ($17 each) and fries ($4). There were seven to an order. The Buffalo as well as the sweet and spicy peach were the sauces chosen. The wings were of decent size, and the chicken was tender. The sweet and spicy peach had a touch of sweet with little spice, but not too much. The Buffalo was decent but would have liked to seen more of a Buffalo flavor. The nachos stack ($16.50) was another appetizer order. We opted for the seasoned ground beef. It came with white queso, Colby jack, lime crema, jalapeno, and Pico de Gallo. This came out cold, so I was not a fan. The seasoned beef was not bad, but overall, just alright at best. Three pizzas were tried. They consisted of Primo Pepperoni ($23 for half), The Works ($21 for half), and the Jersey shore pie ($19 for half). All of the crusts were too doughy for me. The pepperoni came with red sauce, house-blend cheese, char-curl pepperoni, hot honey, garlic, and parmesan. This was solid. It was sweeter than I thought due to the hot honey and possibly red sauce. The Works had red sauce, house-blend cheese, char-curl pepperoni, char spicy sausage, mushrooms, green pepper, black olives, and red onions. There was too much going on here, especially on a small pizza. The Jersey shore had red sauce, house-blend cheese, pork roll, pineapple, and fresh jalapeno. This was essentially a Hawaiian pizza. Again, this was average at best, and the pork roll was hardly tasted. Will I go back? Possibly.

    Full bar scene to get the night started. Drinks while we wait for our reservations for bowling. Bowling offered table service of drinks and food. Definitely an upscale look great for date night or group outings. I enjoyed my experience.

    Came here on a Monday around 5pm so it was basically empty. The facility is gorgeous. My group of 4 came to play putt putt. We opted for the 18 hole course. They have 2 courses split into 2. You can either choose a 9 hole or 18 hole course. Every course had its own theme and challenge. Each course took about 20 min. Defiantly not worth 44$ per person but it was an experience. We then ate at the restaurant. Food was decent. Mostly appetizer fried foods and pizza.

    This was a fun group outing. It's definitely a vibe. We hung out by the bar, followed by nine holes of golf and dinner. We definitely could've done all 18, as it didn't take a huge amount of time. The bar was huge with plenty of seating. I liked that each golf spot was its own unique challenge as well as the non-traditional golf structure. It made for a fun game. The tables at each hole for you to place your drink, bags, etc. was a huge plus in my book. We look forward to returning to finish the other golf course. The bar menu offered an elevated selection. The "new fashioned" was a big hit for our group. I personally prefer simpler drinks like a mojito which was unavailable due to no mint, so I opted for a margarita instead. Before dinner we made use of the free photo booth area which was a nice offering. We were seated promptly for dinner. Our group of 4 ordered apps and a few pies to split. Our table service was good, however, the kitchen service not so much as many things were missing and needed to be followed up on. We did still enjoy our meal, however. Overall a great spot for date night or an outing with friends.

    Went to Albatross to celebrate my sister's birthday and we were pleasantly surprised! The space is stunning, modern, luxurious, and huge. There's a beautiful central bar, plus mini golf, bowling, and dining all under one roof. The mini golf area is especially impressive, it's the largest indoor themed putting experience I've seen. No online reservations yet (first come, first serve), but it looks like that's coming soon- I hope so because that can make it more organized . We went on a Thursday night and luckily it wasn't crowded. Mini golf is $22 per person for 9 holes or $44 for 18 holes. It's a point-based system with fun themed challenges super entertaining and we did all 18 holes. It took about 30 minutes to get through each 9 holes but you have to keep in mind the size of your party and the people ahead of you so maybe the online reservations with time stamps can help because I can see how this can get backed up and super crowded otherwise. We also tried the lychee martini (delicious, though no lychee fruit, they need to fix that), wings, pizza, and brownie dessert, all solid. I've already been back with a larger group and had another great time. Definitely recommend for a fun night out (can get expensive) and will be back soon!

    Dropped by on a random Thursday night so it wasn't too busy. Upsides include the parking, variety of activities in the general area, and surprisingly good food for where you are. You use the kiosks on entry to purchase tickets/time for the mini golf or the bowling. The mini golf set ups are pretty fun though you will likely golf through rather quickly if you have a small group. The scoring system is based on time rather than puts so just fyi. We enjoyed the back mini golf area then went to try and grab a spot for bowling. There were plenty of lanes open but when we bought the tickets, it gave us a time 30 min later. We were a bit tired at this point so it was annoying to wait for that time to come up -- you can order food at the lanes but we couldn't do that until our time came up either. All sales are also nonrefundable BUT they do not warn you that you may have a later bowling time when you buy. Honestly kind of annoying so just be aware of this. Food was better than anticipated hence the 4th star for sure. The fries came out piping hot, the pizzas were actually pretty tasty. I will say skip the hummus platter; idk what pita they had on there but it had the bite of something that had been freeze dried in 1885. It was a no for me dawg. All in all a chill spot to hang out -- not sure I'd try to frequent it during busy hours or days but was a fun way to pass time on a Thursday.

    I went on the Monday after Easter at 11:30 am and was charged 71 for a family of 4 to bowl for one…read morehour. Holiday pay on a Monday morning after the holiday is over is absolutely ridiculous. I'm not surprised the place was empty. There is no where on their website that says the Monday after Easter is a holiday. I walked in the snack bar twice and there was no one working in there. I had to find a staff member just to be told they don't have pizza dough. I would have saved money, gotten better service and food if I just took my family to Round 1 at the mall I definitely won't be returning. It's a rip off. The front desk person needs some customer service training as well.

    Very good location .. very close to Woodbridge / Edison .. a good timepass for kids and adults …read more. gets crowded and be sure not get caught during peak hours . Parking outside is ok . Lots of parking spots . It seems slightly off the road and remote.. service could be a little faster . It takes sometime to set the lanes up.. wish there was an online website to do most of the things online . We got 2 lanes .. they said max 4 per lane . Bumpers worked well. Choice of various weighted bowling balls were limited . We went to other lanes to pick 8 poind , 10 pound bowling balls but they weren't there . Food was really good and not that expensive .s lovedddddd the potato fries and tstor tots.. really really good . Pizza was good too . Cooking time was quick and they really helped to serve a good lunch . There was also a bar selling beer and other stuff . 6$ for a beer wasn't that expensive .? Good timepass overall .. 4 stars

    I went the day after Christmas with a group of friends and family looking forward to some holiday…read morefun. We had a choice between this and Bowlero and chose this location because it was closer. We probably should've gone to Bowlero. This is a basic low-quality bowling alley still stuck in the 90s and desperately in need of an update. The bathroom had a moldy smell and there were lots of stained ceiling tiles and dust in the air vents. Even the arcade games looked like they were original and the snacks in the vending machines look like they had been sitting there for a very long time. Our ball often got stuck in the lane and the computer messed up our scoring a couple of times. Even the graphics that play after you score is pretty basic. I don't know if there was food which is odd because most of the bowling alleys I have been to people are ordering pizzas and sodas and I didn't see anyone eating. There is a bar that serves alcohol but given the condition of the rest of the place I personally wouldn't have a drink there. Selection of balls was also minimal and I made sure to thoroughly wash my hands after we played because I'm afraid of whether those balls have been cleaned or sanitized ever. We chose to bowl for one hour. As our time was nearing the end the words "the end of your session is near" scrolled across the screen. However, it didn't tell us how much more time we had left. Then in the middle of a game delay just shut down. It would've been better for it to tell us that we have five or 10 minutes left to play. I still had a good time because of the group of people that I was with. If you're looking for some really basic bowling this is a place to go to but with so many bowling alleys becoming more upgraded centers of entertainment, these guys are light-years behind.

    ehhh a little sad with this place. Try to come here and there was 5 lanes open. I understand there…read moreis a league but the guy at the counter wasn't nice about it. Told me.. "duh you see it's busy, I don't have any lanes." We always come here and that put a bad taste in my mouth. Like you can be a little nicer. I get it, there is a league and that's where your money comes from to pay the bills but be a little nicer because after that I went to the closest bowling alley on Rt 9 by Walmart that's not as dusty or outdated as this bowling alley. Very sad!
