    Mini-bowling! 12 credits per person, automatic bumpers for children, shorter lanes and smaller balls.
    Courtney H.

    The sign does not match the interior. I had no idea that his was an arcade and laser tag establishment. I just read the "Buffalo Battleground" on the sign and assumed it was an army apparel shop or a gun shop. Walking through the front door there are the arcade games and mini bowling to the left. My 4 and 5 year old had a blast mini bowling and we played a few arcade games after. There is also laser tag, axe throwing, and a bar and restaurant toward the back. Ticket prizes were expensive and of course like every arcade, kind of lame. One small one piece of candy was 50 tickets. Overall we had a great time and will definitely be back again for mini bowling.

    Showed up at around 12:30 pm on a Sunday. There was hardly anyone there, and we got there at the right time, as the Bills games was starting. The set up on how to play games is a little confusing. We went for a half hour of snook, which is a combo of soccer and billiards, and 40 credits. It came to $20.00. There was a $10 fee for the snook and $10 for the 40 credits, which we got for mini bowling. The person at the counter explained things well. There was a party of children just finishing up and we hardly encountered them. Snook was a fun game. Would be a lot more fun with a couple more players. You can play in your street shoes. For mini bowling, you had to swipe the card on the lanes, and it is 12 credits per person to play or $3.00. The games are 5 frames and extremely fun. You can also play this in your street shoes. We had a few extra credits to use up and played a shooting game, which was fun, and skee-ball, which was also fun. The one lane didn't work, and we got what we payed refunded, so we could play the one skee-ball lane that worked. This is a fun place on a wintry day. Check it out. I'll be back to try out their axe throwing and laser tag. It's a little pricey, but good entertainment.

    Had the best time!! Ive been wanting to do Hatchets & Hops for the longest time. Didnt know it was offered here until both locations for Hatchet & Hops was either closed or booked. Buffalo Battleground popped up as they offer axe throwing as well. I just always assummed this place was for kids...it is not-yes the arcade and maybe laser tag seemed like it was VERY kid oriented but the axe throwing was not (you have to be a certain age anyways to participate) Reserved a group of 9 online, they required a $80 deposit...paid the rest at the end of the nite when we got there. Walked in, was greeted and instructed how everything would go. They went over the Covid protocols. Yes you must wear a mask while throwing...same rules as bars/restaurants-can remove when seated. The instructor went in depth how to throw and gave us tips along the way. Practice rounds then there was a bracket competition. I had the best time and will be back again!!! There is a full bar to grab drinks. (I just came from dinner so I was not hungry) You must order food with drinks due to state laws right now BUT they offered a pretzel stick for $1....which was very tastey! Overall, I was very impressed with the directions and order the instructor kept!!

    When I say don't judge a book by its cover...this place doesn't look like much from the outside, but when you walk in its a really nice place. They have an arcade, which can use a little more games. We ordered some food and played some arcade games before laser tag session. All the food we ordered was really good. Only thing is there is no free refills for drinks you have to pay an additional dollar. We ordered our tickets online and signed the waivers ahead of time to avoid the wait. The laser tag here is 10 times better than Lasertron. We all had a blast. It was also a good workout the sessions are 1 hour long with about 5 to 10 minutes of instruction time. Will definitely return soon.

    Came in for axe throwing! The staff was so professional and helpful it was very fun! The facility was extremely clean. There is so much to do here! Perfect for a night out of innocent fun! Definitely recommend this location!

    I purchased a Groupon to try laser tag at this place, and everyone had a great time. The place is huge to run around in, and compared to Lasertron everyone agreed BB is waaaay better. For starters you only need to use a headgear/headband here instead of the clunky vest, and the gun is much lighter. *Be advise the props are real here compared to the plastic set up at Lasertron so I don't recommend for little kids. The Groupon was for an hour. At one point someone in my party needed to use the bathroom and they didn't cut our time short even though there was another group waiting. Side notes: - even without the Groupon this place is still cheaper than Lasertron so I definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're looking to play laser tag. - they've a hallway near the bar/food area for parties with a coin operated foosball machine.

    I was able to try out the laser tag today after a recommendation from a friend who had been here for airsoft. Once ready to play we sat in on an instruction video with a kid who seemed less enthused about his job. In the arena the kid gave out the guns and picked the teams (which did not seem random at all) and did 7 against 5. He claimed this was fair because the two extra on the other team were kids. This entire game our team of 5 was killed back to back every time. I honestly don't think adults have any advantage in this game against 10 -12 year olds After the first game that we lost by a lot they did not switch up the teams despite us clearly voicing how we felt it wasn't even . We also felt the equipment was not reading a lot shots. I would clearly be a foot from someone shooting them and nothing happened. It just seemed really one sided which took away a lot of the fun in this activity. Just comparing to lasertron I'd rather go back to lasertron instead on Battlegrounds. They seem better organized and at least the teams are randomly selected. I did find the feel of the place cool and definitely a fun spot for kids since they have a Dave and busters type arcade inside.

    We went yesterday afternoon for a group outing to play laser tag. This place was definitely not what I expected, in more ways than one. From the road this place kind of looks like an abandoned warehouse, not much going on. When you get in though you'll quickly see this couldn't be much further from the truth. Arcade games everywhere, mini-bowling, and even a "bar and grill" await you inside. After seeing the facilities, I was much more excited about playing laser tag, thinking it would be a great experience. This is where I was wrong again. We get into the briefing room to watch the instruction video and talk to the referee and it just couldn't have been more clear he didn't want to be there. I get that not everyone is excited to be at work on a Saturday but this kid was clearly miserable and made no attempt to hide it. We went from the briefing area to the arena and he randomly picked our teams for us. We were allowed no input and he stacked the teams 5v7. Why we couldn't play 6v6, I have no idea. We then proceeded to get absolutely slaughtered for the next 5 games or so (I was on the team with 5) while the ref sat in a corner and texted paying no attention to us. Seems like it would have been a good idea to mix up the teams at some point, but I guess that wasn't in the cards. At one point he did switch up game modes to play something called domination that involved shooting boxes and controlling zones on the battlefield. Problem was that half the equipment didn't seem to work. I'm usually pretty good at games like this (aim wise) but I couldn't seem to hit anything. At one point I shot 30+ bullets into one of these boxes from maybe 5-8 feet away and somehow didn't capture it. When we complained about sensors not working we were just told by the kid refereeing to aim better. Overall this wasn't a great experience and I probably wouldn't go back for laser tag again, hopefully the air soft thing is more fun? I gave them a 2 at least because they had nice facilities and the arcade games looked fun, although extremely expensive.

    My friends and I get together on a monthly basis and do a fun group outing. Each month a different member of our group plans the event, and this past event was laser tag here. The arena was really cool- definitely a step up from your basic Lasertron principle where you hide behind little pillars. And what was really cool is that each game has an objective, so you are not walking around just trying to storm the other teams base. I was lucky and ended up with two little kiddos on my team as well, they have energy that I do not know at this ripe age of 29. It was $18 for multiple games (I think four?) and was very worth it. The only problems I noted were some friends guns and head pieces malfunctioned. Tips: Fill out the waiver online before you go You're gonna wanna strip down to base layers. It gets real sweaty up in there. They also have air soft!

    We reserved a lane for axe throwing and arrived a little before our reservation time to order food and drinks.

    So my nephew was turning 16 yr old, he didn't want an actual party but did wanna do something fun…read morewith his cousins doing his favorite thing...gaming. After searching for a near and wide, my sister found Orions Landing, which proved to be beyond our expectations. We had a group of 5 teenage boys who were hungry and full of energy. We were planning on doing a walk session, it was 3pm but online, they stated their next session wasn't until 6. We called to verify, the manager said there was party coming in if we made it in before 4 p.m., he could accommodate us earlier. Bet!!! So we made it in exactly at 4pm. Our crew was able to choose two 30 minute games for $35 each. While the teens played we adults also played !! They had a giant Jenga, chess board, table hockey, and a bunch of other arcade games. Speaking of adult time !! They actually had adult beverages and not just beer and cider but actual ALCOHOL!! I definitely see myself planning an adult birthday party or fun meet-up here !! We also indulged in some pretty cheesy mozzarella sticks that weren't overcooked. When the boys got they were treated to in house made pizza !! We got the traditional cheese and pepperoni, I was actually really surprised that this pizza was actually really good !! Cup and pep, nicely portioned cheese and sauce and perfect dough !! One of the owners, who I might add is such a nice truly guy, said that they use fresh ingredients. We can definitely tell !! In additional they have all sorts of other food, like fries and pizza logs the list goes on and on !! Our crew had such a fun time and my nephew is still smiling about his experience. Oh might I add Orion Landing was opened under a different name and location prior to covid. We took my nephew and his same crew minus a few 6 years ago! Even more impressive one of Owners remembered us and enjoyed a laugh with is at how much the kids had grown and other fun moments of the previous party we had. I'm so glad to say same great service, with a much Improved atmosphere!! In addition to Vr gaming they have a virtual escape room and a neon paint splatter room !! I can't stop tell people about our experience!! A great place for older kids and adults alike!! We will definitely be back time and time again !! So should you !! I wish I'd taken more pictures to share just how awesome this place is !

    Modern Lasertron but without the laser tag part. Orion's landing is a great place for a date,…read morebirthday party, or night out. It's extremely entertaining and the prices aren't terrible for the experience you are getting. I'd definitely go back the games are so realistic I ran away from the zombies irl and the head set came off. Fun for all ages food looks good.
