Went to Fat Cats to see Avatar. When you walk in it is very loud with all of the games and people. We did not get any concessions but saw there were a lot of really good offerings. The seats in the theatre were comfortable, the sound was great. Bathrooms were close and clean. This is an eat in theatre so there are tables attached to the seats. It would be nice to be able to put them down if you aren't using them.. read more

This place is great to go see a movie. They have a good theater with the most comfortable seats around and I'm somebody who frequently visits Harkins AMC as well nobody beats these seats. The game area is crappy and has gotten worse as they have replaced a lot of of the games with terrible games that are boring ticket games but not fun. Can't speak on the billing alley part as I dont utilize that. Their game area needs work and their movie selection/availability is decent. read more

Bowling at Fatcats was a lot of fun and definitely the highlight of our visit. The atmosphere was lively and made for a good time with friends. The food was just okay--we only tried a few appetizers, and they weren't anything special. The mini golf course was fine but not very challenging, so it's better suited for younger kids or a very casual round. The arcade was a bit disappointing since most of the games were ticket-based rather than classic or interactive arcade games, which limited the overall experience. Overall, Fatcats is a decent spot for bowling, but some of the other attractions could use improvement. read more

Movie theater, bowling, miniature golf, food court, arcade, just to name a few things to do at FatCats. Went to see a movie, reclining leather seats with built in table for your food & drinks, plenty of space between aisles, clean. Tuesdays are $5/movie day. Excellent customer service from each employee we encountered. read more

What an interesting name to call a movie theater, bowling alley, and arcade. We came here to see Wicked at a cheaper rate. Service was fast and was able to get good seats for the movie. I like how spacious this place is. They have lots of parking and it's clean too. I like how it's near my house so I can go the movies anytime I want. read more

Terrible experience bowling there. Bowling was totally destroyed by faulty equipment. When brought to the attention of the Service Manager Leslie Winslow, she was extremely rude, not caring in the least. When asked for her name, she rudely threw her card at me and walked away. I will never set foot in that establishment again. read more

Came strictly for the mini golf. $5 a person for 9 holes of mini golf. Took about 20-30 mins to go through but we also weren't playing by the book since we had a 4 year old with us. Cute little course and not over crowded in the mini golf area even with it being a Saturday. The arcade and bowling portion were however extremely packed so definitely thankful we skipped that this time. read more

Every time I visit FatCats in Surprise, the customer service is unpleasant. It's a cool, fun spot, but the workers are rude and unwelcoming with an attitude. I would purchase everything online if possible just to avoid interacting with the employees, or keep any contact with them as brief as possible. read more

We watched Avatar 3 in this theater a few days ago. The price is very reasonable, especially during weekdays. We had a small bag extra butter popcorn which is pretty good. The seats are comfortable and the theater is clean. read more

Purchased tickets ahead for a new movie that was coming out. Cleaned out my purse of receipts forgetting the tickets were in there. I recovered a couple. They were able to reprint them. Another amazing thing, the day of the movie we sat with my mom in the handicap section since my mom doesn't do stairs well. Especially when dark. For some reason we were split up when reserving and we weren't away. A kind lady with a broken leg offered to scoot over one so our group could all sit together. As she was doing so. She spilled all her popcorn. I felt so bad. I went to get her a new one. I shared what had happened and they kindly gave me a bag for her even though I had my card to pay. They are always awesome here. Keep an eye out for free large popcorn coupons in your value pack mailer. Good when you purchase 2 tickets. We are allergic, so we bring them and give them away. They cook the popcorn in coconut oil. Healthy oil unless your allergic. They don't need to improve the mixed drinks at the bar. If they could do that, this place would be even more awesome. They have a huge selection of beer. Even local! read more

My family & I went to Fat Cats a few times which is about 15-20mins from our home. It's conveniently located at the end of the plaza center of Prasda shopping area down from Footlocker & Kohls. So many stores & restaurants in the area you can choose from as well. Fat Cats have their own area of parking & once you walk in you immediately see the counters to purchase your tickets, or game cards & more. Fat Cats has a movie theater, bowling, games & bar. My only compliant I wish they had lounge seating & not just rocking chairs. On select days that offer specials on glow & the dark mini golfing, half off games & specials on movies. A tip: sign you for their app to earn points on purchases & emails on specials. read more

Went to fat cats for the first time. The place was well kept had great customer service. I was very surprised to see a full bar available and pretty tasty pizza. Good prices for food and drinks. Online specials available if you reserve an advance. Highly recommend for a small group or large group. We had a blast. read more

Absolutely loved coming to fat cats! From the pricing and all the options of food and things to do it's the best place for family outings! They have a whole grill for different foods to order plus your normal theater snacks as well. They have bowling, arcade, and theaters. The seating in the theaters was so comfy and roomy! The kids loved them. The family bathroom also has items for free if needed for your child and women. Definitely will be going back! Thank you! read more

The kids love this place! It's super loud and constant noise, if you're not into that steer clear. I don't like that the arcade is right by the entrance - as a safety concern but if you're watching your kids it should be fine. Bowling was ok, we had issues with screens freezing so they credited us time back after it got fixed. I don't recommend it for toddlers or younger. It's just ok I wouldn't rush there as my first pick of places to go but my kids love it so I know we will be back. read more

Literally the worst customer service I've ever had. I left my $700 retainer in the theater, walked to my car, and came right back in a couple minutes later. The worker had already thrown it out while she was "cleaning," and then acted like it was no big deal. I asked to go through the trash (because obviously it was mine), and they straight up refused. The girl at the front was rude and inconsiderate saying "oh well we're closed," and even told my boyfriend "we don't keep stuff like that" ... meaning they threw it away on purpose. Like?? This isn't some cheap thing you can replace. It's my dental retainer, it costs hundreds of dollars, and they treated me like it was nothing. Absolutely no empathy, no effort to help, just rude attitudes. I've never been so frustrated with a place. Don't expect this theater to care about you or your belongings, because they clearly don't. read more

I wanted to take the time to update my review. I've seen such great improvements in the upkeep of FatCats. In several recent visits the theater has been clean, the bathrooms as well. The seating beyond comfortable, the sound... amazing, and the staff has always been kind and helpful. You guys rock and are doing a fantastic job, all to say you deserve the positive feedback, and credit for all these improvements! read more

Lots of fun for all ages, come in for a Monday Deal and there's a $60 family deal with pizza, unlimited soda and 2 hours bowling. A few game credits. Great spot and I will definitely be back to impress the rest of the family. read more

We love FatCats. We go strictly for the movies. Always have drink and an appetizer beforehand and people watch. The bartenders are always very personable. The theaters are always very clean. Chairs are comfortable. Bathrooms are clean. This is the only place we go for movies. Not the closest to our house but worth the extra travel. read more

This was our first time and it was great. They have arcade games, bowling, food, glow in the dark mini golf and the best movie theatre around. Not only do the seats recline but they have a pull out table for your snacks and drinks! read more

Came here for my son's birthday. Actually had a really fun time. The glow-in-the-dark mini golf was a lot of fun. The food is expensive but I do like the movie seating and the cupholders and trays honestly, if you come on Tuesday, it's like five dollars to get in. I didn't get to look too much at the food to see if they had any deals. And I typically drink Dr Pepper and the Dr Pepper machine was down so that was disappointing. Overall not really a bad place might come again for the movies. read more

Just left. It's currently 9:08 as I type this. Is was 8:45 when I was there. A group of 5 of us arrived hoping to have drinks and bowl, only to be told we'd only have have 40 minutes to bowl, before they close..... We asked if there'd be a discount because $12pp is typically for 90 minutes. Not 40. They said same price, sorry. As I'm in the car, all the hours I see posted show 11pm on saturdays. Not 9:30. Ended up going back towards home and going to good ol' Main Event. Guess who's open? That's right. I won't be coming back, there were too many people in there to be closing in 40 minutes. read more

Their idea of cosmic bowling is far from what it should be. Food prices are out of control. Food taste/quality is awful (except the French fries were good). The alley broke 3 times. Waiting on and or trying to find staff to help was a chore. When you found someone they acted like they didn't care and took forever to help. We lost almost 15 minutes of our time and even though they finally helped and gave us our time back, at 11 pm, they shut our lane down in the middle of our game. So we still lost out. Booking online and being charged extra for doing so is another issue. Bottom line, staff and food are way behind in what you want and expect for the money you pay. Not sure it's worth ever going back. read more

This place is great and the staff is very kind and helpful! I come often to bowl, and I always have a great experience! Today there was some trouble with my lane and it interfered with my bowling, but Tyler and the other staff were very kind and helpful in fixing my problem. I am very understanding and assured them many times that I wasn't upset and I even felt bad asking them to come to my lane so many times. Even with this I was accommodated with extra time to play and a refund! Sometimes it is the little things that mean the most. I will definitely be coming back more often to bowl! read more

Place sucks. Broken equipment, no firearm policy, bowling lane randomly resets, and overpriced. I'd rather bowl with boulders in my street.

Came here for Father's Day to bowl with the family. They have mini golf, arcade games and bowling, and even a movie theatre. It was my first time at FatCats, so I didn't know what to expect. It was very loud and busy in there. The lanes are all very close next to each other we even had someone run into us while we were bowling. Also we arrived early, and they didn't even let us in our lane on our starting time cause "it wasn't ready", and did not give us additional time to bowl even though they started us late. Our start time was 4pm and it ended right at 5, even though they started us about 10 mins late. You also have to go find bowling balls that are the right size for you, they had small, medium, and large and different weights, and they didn't have enough of the each ball, since they were all being used. So we had to use either one that was way too big and heavy, or extremely small. You also have to share the thing that feeds the balls back with the people next to you, so our balls kept getting swapped or used. They have a bar here, and some food, which wasn't anything too special, but The fries were good. read more

We had a good time at Fat Cats! When the family is all in town we are always looking for fun things to do that can involve everyone from kiddos to grandparents. Fat Cats was a great option for us to get out of the Phoenix heat and still spend quality time together. It's similar to a Main Event or other places like that. You're not going for fine dining or a super boujee adult atmosphere, but it is a good mix of being able to grab a drink while bowling with the fam! Our bartender was great, the bowling was fun, and the arcade had a solid variety! We had a good time and would come back again read more

Went to FatCats today for a fun afternoon. We opted to go for bowling, pizza and mini golf but the place also offers an arcade and movie theater. We had a great time. The bowling was fun except for the really log time it would take to get help if there was an issue with your lane, because of the wait we lost out on finishing our second game. The pizza was decent arcade style pizza. We had 3 feed a group of 11. As for mini golf it was fun but felt a little rushed since we had groups behind us that felt like they were pressuring us to move faster. All in all this was a fun way to spend a hot day. read more

Great place for a day of fun with the kids! We did a round of glow in the dark mini golf, had lunch, and then hit the arcade section. Mini golf was a great time with 9 different holes and a fun space theme. For lunch we had a pepperoni pizza, pretzel bites, and kids tender meal. Everything was tasty and better than I'd expect for a place like this. They also had a full bar that we'll check out next time. Lots of fun arcade games, too! Definitely will be back. read more

Service was good. Clean place and friendly staff. Watched a movie and it was great. Chairs there recline and are very comfy. Wish there were more games at this place but over neat place.

You're looking at the Connect Four Hoop Undefeated Champion!! woot woot. Got that out of my system. This new @fatcatsfun campus that opened in Surprise, AZ recently had my family so excited. We finally got a chance to go last weekend and spent several hours here, checking out the arcade area, bowling, glow in the dark miniature golf, bar, grill and the concessions for the theater. We ended the night with @barbiethemovie A super fun day for sure! There are several restrooms and the concession attendants ask for your seat number to bring you hot food while you watch a film! The theater chairs are comfortable and adjustable with plenty of space and swing away tables. This is such a great idea for a kid's birthday. There's so much to do and it's all contained in one open space area. There are long tables and seating for just this type of party available between the grill and the bowling lanes. read more

Every staff member is extremely nice, prices are amazing, and the scene is just for families. Way better than any other place I've been

We have been here multiple times, half the games were either under maintenance or not working, or not working properly and just took your credits. The pizza is alright nothing to write home about. We paid for an hour of bowling. During our bowling session around 35 minutes the pin guard came down mid throw and the ball struck it, took the staff 25 minutes to remove the ball that had got stuck in the gutter after asking multiple times. They just kept resetting it and telling us to continue bowling. To which we did my son kept bowling the score didn't register and then we had to approach the counter again for a reset. Finally they got a staff member to remove the ball. We continued playing chalked the time up to lost efforts. We had 10 minutes left of play. My son rolled his turn and we look up and we had 2 minutes left. Approached the staff at the counter again explained everything that had happened and the manager " Impolite I might add" said give them 10 minutes. So we took what we could get and went back bowled 1 more ball. Time jumped around from 2 minutes to 65 minutes to 6 minutes. Then said we were out of time. Proceeded to try to ask management again and I stood at the counter while the staff stared at me. 5 minutes passed before I got tires of standing there after asking for the manager multiple times, while he stood in the food area chatting with one of the cashiers. We cleaned up our area, returned our shoes and left. Very unsatisfied with the overall experience. I only Gave 2 stars because the food did come out fairly quick otherwise a pretty crappy overall experience. I doubt I will be taking my family back again. Not to mention we drove about 40 minutes to enjoy time bowling with our family only to be met by an unclean bathroom, sub par borderline inoperable games and a bowling experience that was half the time we paid for. read more

It's not cheep but what is these days. Took 3 grandkids the wife, daughter and mother in law. While we all bowled and played games for 3 hours the mother in law was able to see a movie. The place is clean the food was not bad and the kids loved the free refills on drinks. The staff seems happy to be there and knowledgeable about their products to include their on line apps. Great place to beat the triple digits on the West side. read more

Went to Fat Cats Today to see Primate and had extremely poor customer service from every employee I came into contact with. First, we went to buy the tickets a few hours prior to the showing and were asked to leave for bringing in an iced tea from the gas station. We were just there to buy movie tickets and it felt like harassment to be asked to leave. Before being asked to leave, we walked up to the counter when you walk in and asked where to buy tickets and they directed us to the movie theater. When we got to the movie theater, there were no employees working the stand. We ran into an employee (the employee who asked us to leave), and she told us we were supposed to buy them at the front with the staff we first spoke to who directed us to the theater? All the staff at the counter were very disengaged, unfriendly, on their phones and acted like we were an inconvenience to them. When we returned a few hours later to watch the movie we went to buy food and drinks from the counter before the show. We bought a small popcorn meal and asked if we could have a water cup. They told us that they don't provide water cups and we would have to purchase a $4.00 bottle of water if we wanted water. That is ridiculous. I understand you want to make money, but customer service should be better than that. Especially towards paying customers. I am a manager in the customer service world and I would be APPALLED if any of my staff ever treated our guests in this manner. I'll give you a tip for making your business money that is WAY more effective than eliminating water cups.... treat your guests with respect and provide excellent guest service. Simple as that. I will not be back given this experience. Unfortunate because it has potential to be fun place but is ruined by the staff. read more

This place is 5 stars !!! Customer service is a yes! We love it so much we came two days in a row! The staff here are alway smiling and it's contagious! They took every opportunity to go over and above. I hope it stays this clean and this friendly. The concession stand staff were more than willing to give needed information and make your order just as you ask with zeros issues. I even had ticket person offer to help me with getting me and my families order to the seats. Thank you for bringing greatness to this area. Food, fun, and price friendly... read more

Staff is so friendly! The theater was clean and seats were very comfortable (plushy leather that reclines!), the screen was very clear, but the audio was a bit too loud. When action was happening or a loud movement would happen on screen it would peak the audio and crackle. Probably still working out the kinks as it's so new. Bowling alley, arcade, and a bar with food are all nice and new. We appreciate having another entertainment venue without driving 30+ minutes to Glendale! Thank you read more
