    The new clean updated lanes, flooring, seating and friendly staff is a wonderful option for bowling near Lexington.

    Nice bowling alley with good lanes and better than average screens. Would have given it 5 stars but they no longer have a pro shop.

    Cosmic bowling sucks. All they do is turn the lights off. Not going back.

    Lanes break down easily and one of the bartenders is VERY rude. Too many other places to bowl in this area. I won't return there!

    This was a great place for a children's birthday party…read more We had 2 hours bowling and laser tag. The kids and parents had fun. The lemonade and fruit punch was too sweet for me but the kids loved it. I thought they were colored sugar water. The birthday girl received game credits for the game area. If you are into bowling, laser tag, and games, try them out. We had fun.

Booked the All Access Party package for my nieces 10th birthday, the…read morepackage was $29.99/person and came with 2 hours of bowling, bumper car session, laser tag session, food (we chose cheeseburgers and fries), pre-loaded arcade cards, and a session in the ticket tornado for the birthday girl, and coupons for your next visit which we passed out to all the parents. We ended up having to upgrade to the VIP lanes since the time we originally wanted was booked on the regular lanes. I'm so glad we upgraded because it was a more personal experience. We had 10 kids so we were given two lanes and had our own section. Stars and Strikes did a great job setting up, they provided balloons, cups, plates and napkins. When we arrived, Delanie (our amazing host) was standing at the front with a sign that said happy birthday Sophia, the sign also listed the itinerary for the day. They did such a great job communicating with us prior to and even during the event. The kids all enjoyed their burgers. They said the lemonade was really good but the sweet tea was not their favorite. One of the parents ordered drinks at the bar and said they were really good, nice and strong. My dad ordered beer and said it was surprisingly affordable ($5). Some others in our group ordered food separately and really enjoyed it. The menu looked amazing. If I wasn't wrangling kids all day I would have ordered something. Everything started on time, bowling started at 12:30, around 12:45ish they brought out the food. Then at 1:15 Delanie came and got us for bumper cars. After that at 1:30 was laser tag. After this we went back to bowling for the remainder of our time. Once our bowling time ended, we were able to move over to the tables near the bar and set up to sing happy birthday. After the happy birthdays the kids played arcade games with their preloaded cards. I ended up participating in the bumper cars and the laser tag with the kids and it was a blast. They also really enjoyed the bowling and the arcade portion. Overall this was a must do for a kids party or even for adult date night. Highly recommend booking vip regardless of the option you choose. Delanie was our host from beginning to end and she was amazing! She answered all our questions, was so patient, and always there when we needed her. Make sure you tip your host, all money goes to them. They also have the cutest robots that deliver your food.

I saw no signage at the establishment advertising this, so unsure if that was the case. They did have this 90 minute unlimited meal & play deal that we got. It don't think all games were included, but my son and I were able to beat the whole Halo game during this time and also had time to eat and play some other games. It was fun, the food okay, it's kinda of a pricey place.. but you kinda know that going in. Overall we had a good experience

This year specifically my husband and I went for my 23 birthday.. and it was phenomenal!! Due to the fact that it was on a Thursday and we went before 12 PM. It wasn't a lot of traffic going on so we literally did not have to wait at any game station. Instead of going to a worker yourself you're now able to go to an automatic machine and get your cards charged or get new ones. If you don't have any, which I find so convenient. They also have dipping dots machine if you love ice cream and want something new which I tried for the first time and thought it was so cool! To end our night we had burgers and fries, which I must say was a 10 out of 10 after running up and down and playing all of those games. Like I said, Dave & Buster's isn't new to our date night, but they definitely find a way to upscale the experience every single time we attend

Cons: Not a lot of balls when it is busy so people were walking up to others to ask to take their balls. When we got there, we weren't sure how many games we wanted to play and if we wanted to bowl 3 each to get the special, but the cashier said we could bowl whatever # we wanted and then decide later how to split it up when we were finished. We were litetally talking with her about the about the buy-2-get-1-half-off deal when she said that. When we went to check out to pay, a different cashier would not honor the special and said we would have had to pay for that at the beginning. The first cashier NEVER said that! I saw her afterwards and questioned it, and she said something like, "oh, yeah, you'd had to buy that before you started," and blew me off. I told her she never said that, and the rest of my party agreed 100%, and that she had told us she'd split it up after, but that didn't seem to matter. That's a bit of bait and switch action. Dishonest. We played 10 games total, 4 shoe rentals, and got ZERO discount, but should have gotten 3 games at half price. Also, they don't split a check by dollar amount, but by line item, which was also less convenient. Disappointing experience to have to pay more than expected and the cashier could have cared less.

    Diamond - 5 Stars Jacob - 1 Star…read more After an extra long visit to SC, a friend suggested we hang out before I head back to NYC. We ended up stopping at The Grand around 9/9:30pm on a Saturday. Upon entering the hostess informed us they were currently only serving the late night menu. We said no problem and elected to grab seats at the bar. There were several empty tables and a few empty seats @ the bar. However, the only two seats together at the bar needed to be cleared from the last patrons that were seated. We stood there for over 20 mins while Jacob continued to walk by never acknowledging us or the fact that we couldn't sit. When he finally cleared the dishes he just walked away, never cleaning the area. When he returned he still never greeted us or apologized for the wait, the mess... nothing. Jacob: What are you having? Me: Well hello... Jacob: Yea... what do you want? Me: Wow... ok. For starters can you please whip off the bar so we can properly have a seat. There is still food residue here from the last customers. ** we get a visible huff** He wipes down the bar and we proceed to order drinks, while he never really speak any more it's all via motions and body language. Amongst ourselves we check in with one another to confirm that we both were feeling very unwelcome. Instantly we decide that we will not be ordering anything additional and will be leaving after this one drink. Which is just as well because Jacob never returns. Someone , whom I can only assume was of a mangement status, asked if Jacob was helpful and we promptly and simultaneously said no and that we would like or bill. She shook her head in utter disbelief and disgust but then she also disappeared. Just so happened that Diamond, whom was on the other side of the bar happen to walk pass. She stopped and asked if we were ok after witnessing our frustration. We explained that we wanted the check and why we were leaving. She was super apologetic and closed out our tab. Her energy literal turned the experience around and if she would have came to our rescue sooner we would have considered staying. Thank you Diamond. Just A Note: Unfortunately, bad first impression because The Grand seems like it may offer a good time with the bowling lanes in the back.
