Amazing happy hour prices with lots of TVs around the space. We ordered onion rings, brussel sprouts, fries, wings, quesadillas, and numerous slushies, glasses of wine, and beers and the overall bill was surprisingly affordable. Granted, the portions were smaller and the food wasn't the best we've ever had, but it was salty and did the job. Minigolf was fun and takes a good amount of time, although some holes were particularly difficult. Great staff as well! read more

This review is for mini golf only: I agree with what someone said in their review, which was that the mini golf leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe the vibe is a little different at night when the lights on the courses are brighter and more pleasant, but the holes are not too well constructed and are a lot smaller than expected. The edges are constructed in a way that a ball can easily get lodged under the rim of the edges and the light strips that line it, making it difficult to play a smooth game. There's also one hole in particular that our balls got stuck in multiple times. There are no instructions whatsoever, like how the game of thrones inspired one is the last hole (it does not return your ball). All in all, it's fun for one time but I definitely had higher expectations for gameplay and the construction and quality of the holes. read more

Food was mostly finger food and quality stayed at pub level .. service was good ..Faith went above and beyond when I didn't link my drink - she was able to change it to my liking.. and checked in with us often to make sure we were served well. Ambiance is fun and relaxing but games software is not the latest and the best We spent 2hrs playing games and 100 towards food and drinks for two read more

This is a fun place! I love the TopGolf and the back private room is one of the best places to book for a private little event in my opinion. Have a putt-putt course on the other side that is a decent course. Not the best but decent enough. I love their wings and drinks. Staff has always been friendly to me. read more

Located on 3rd floor of Lincoln Square North in downtown Bellevue. It has a bar, 18 hole mini-golf and a Topgolf area. Went there for mini-golf plus drinks and food. Opens at 5pm on midweek. Ended up with a decent amount of people there by 8pm. There's a bar area with some seats, and a back area with more seating, but was taken by a private event when we were there. Mini-golf was fun. They have neon-lights to add some color, and the holes have different themes. Wish they had better explanations on how to score some of the holes like the Skee-ball one. As for the food and drinks, the wings were decent, while the fries were average. The habanero wings definitely have some kick to them, as expected. I enjoyed the frozen margarita and frozen pina colada they had. Happy hour for the first a little bit, and got that small glass of $3 sparkling rose which was not bad. Service was good. Decent place to hang out and play some mini-golf. read more

What a fun time for all ages with friends. Our waitress was not the best. We ordered sodas and never got them despite reminding her and another person several times during dinner before our mini golf time. The food was good. I would recommend the wings and fries. The highlight of the evening was the minigolf. Our family and friends had a blast playing. We competed, got frustrated, and laughed the entire time. We left feeling de-stressed and happy. No complaints at all about the mini-golf portion of the night. It is nice to have somewhere inside to play mini golf when it is cold, windy, dark, and wet outside. read more

Came here for mini golf at 7pm on a Friday night. We were the only ones golfing, which was nice because we didn't have to wait for other groups, but I did find it a little odd that it was so empty on a Friday. Maybe it gets busy later? For my purposes, it was nice! The drink options were fabulous, we loved the guava margarita and the slushie bellini. The bartenders were friendly, quick, and we were able to leave our tabs open and bring our drinks with us as we golfed. The golf was fun- all the holes are unique and have fun themes. We got frustrated with a few of the holes that we found difficult (the pizza one, iykyk) but that could have been a skill issue. Overall, this was a fun double date and I found it to be very self-led and casual, which was nice for our purposes. I would go back! read more

Today we attended their new year's eve family party for the first time, and it was an extremely frustrating experience. The event was completely disorganized and severely overcrowded, with absolutely no place to sit. "Non-reserved" tables were taken early and deliberately blocked with jackets and bags with no one even present on the table, yet no one from management made any effort to intervene or stop this misuse. Every area--from the golf sections to face painting--was packed beyond capacity, making it chaotic and unpleasant. Food quality was also very disappointing. We attended with two young children, and the situation was so poorly managed that we were forced to leave in less than an hour. This was far from a family-friendly experience and deeply disappointing. read more

Came here for the UFC fight night 322. It was pretty cool they showed it on a big projector with tables up to people surrounding the screen.

This was a fun event, I would do it again! read more

My old high school class will be holding our 30-year reunion in Forum's clubhouse in a few months. I'm the class historian, and I am very grateful to our main Forum contact, Chris, as she allowed me to do a test media run with my video setup. Chris answered all of my questions, and all the officers are excited for the forthcoming media centerpiece aspect of our event. I also had dinner here (the Mexicali Salad and a Pinot noir) - with stellar staff and service. I will be a regular here going forward - amazing vibe in the bar area especially during the World Cup! read more

This place was a little crowded on Saturday night. Still plenty of parking in the garage. I would suggest checking in your coat at the top golf otherwise you have to carry it while you golf. You can take as long as you want to golf. Even though it was crowded, we were able to golf at each hole and we never had to wait long for another party to finish. Each hole was really fun and had its own theme. I think this is more fun than normal mini golf. The only downside is the place is small so sometimes your might hit your ball out of confined area and you have to chase after it or other people might hit their ball near you. read more

Visited the bar area of this large golf venue that has mini golf and a Top Golf area. All day happy hour on Tuesdays, with specific happy hours the other weekdays. Typical bar food on the HH menu.

Came here for a date night to play some mini golf, have a couple drinks and some food. I'll start by saying the good and drinks are a solid 4 stars for sure. We had great service and really liked the wings and Brussels sprouts. The mini golf on the other hand leaves a lot to be desired. I expected some state of the art cool indoor mini golf. It's actually old, beat up and hokey in the function/operation of the holes. It's also really aggravating the way the coarse is played, you can bounce around in no particular order but it always seemed everyone was stacked up on certain holes. And groups of 4 take FOREVER on some of these holes that are almost impossible. And last, lots of kids at 9pm at night running around aimlessly, I guess kids don't have bedtimes anymore, so that was annoying (and I'm a parent so I like kids lol). We'll try for golf next time but will be back. read more

This place is massive. Located on the 3rd floor of Lincoln Square, they have a ton of activities for you to do here. There's mini golf, a Topgolf Swing studio, bar area with drinks/bites, billiards, and even a night club dancing area. This place really has a diverse set of entertainment for both kids and adults. Entertainment aside, the bar food leaves much to be desired. If it wasn't for happy hour prices, I don't think I would ever come back. The chicken and waffles were meh, the wings were awful and the fries were decent. We were definitely still hungry but decided not to order more. The wings were so soggy, there was no crunch to them and the flavors felt like afterthoughts. In hindsight, we should've picked another place for happy hour that had better food. read more

I came here for a friend's birthday on a Saturday night and it was very busy but clean and organized. I can only speak for the mini golf, the dance floor and the drinks since I didn't order any food. The parking after 830pm is free at Lincoln square. The Forum Social is located on the 3rd floor. The mini golf course is $15 per person. Each hole has an amazing theme and is very adorable, fun and amusing. The drinks were very pricey. For two basic cocktails it was about $30. The dance floor was awesome. The DJ was great, it has great lights, cold air blowing from the ceiling and the sound was on point. Overall, it was a fun time. I'd suggest the mini golf. read more

This is a perfect spot to hang out with your friends or partner! The ambiance was amazing and the company was even better! However, I must say the food wasn't up to my expectations, especially the wings that I had. They were a bit too greasy for my liking, and the chicken seemed to have dived into an oil tank! Haha! On the bright side, they were generously coated with parmesan, but the garlic was a bit overpowering. Overall, it was a fun experience mini-golfing, but the company made it all worthwhile. The service was also good. The waitress was attentive, but they got my friend's girlfriend's order incorrectly. read more

This place is pretty awesome. $15 per person for a round of mini golf (minors are welcome). Unlike other bars with mini golf, this place is more spread out so you aren't right on top of other parties. The holes are really creative and fun to play as well. The happy our prices here are some of the best I've seen in a long time! You have to order in the bar but they are cool with that even if you are playing mini golf. The wings are some of the best I've had in Washington! The sliders are a little interesting because it's a single hamburger patty but it really works well resulting in juicy and flavorful sliders. The fries are spot on as well (good amount of salt which is a positive for me). This would be a great place for a first or second date. Pros Excellent mini golf course Memorable wings Killer happy hour Kids are allowed Cons Lincoln Square douche factor (it's minimal) read more

I went to Forum Social for my birthday with friends last month. I reserved 10 mini golf slots in advance online for 9pm (ended up being about $17/person because there's a service charge included). However, I learned they also take walk-ins as well. The mini golf experience was honestly subpar in comparison to Flatstick. While the hole themes are creative (especially the last hole, which is a Game of Thrones throne made of golf clubs), they weren't well made and were more based on luck than strategy. It didn't matter if you got the ball in the shortcut hole- it still missed the hole by a few feet. It was also very easy to hit the ball out of the course or get it stuck because of the poorly constructed/cheaply made obstacles. I was honestly disappointed by the experience. The only plus was that it was basically unlimited, but I'd rather spend $10 at Flatstick instead for better planned out courses. While we didn't get food, we did get a round of shots at the bar. Shots were between $11-$16 each which was pricey even for Bellevue standards- mind that these weren't top shelf liquor by any means . They served them in cheap plastic shot cups and so when we were taking the tray to the table, one of the shot cups fell over. The Rockwell Nightclub was bare, even at 11pm. Just a couple of people in their 40's dancing on the floor and some showgirls on the stage. Service was hard to get a hold of on the phone (I had to call about five different times), but the manager called me back when I needed to adjust my reservation and so I give them credit for that. Overall, if you're looking for a place to party in your 20's and 30's, I can attest that this isn't the place. Go to Flatstick or Capitol Hill instead. 3/5 for drinks, 2.5/5 for atmosphere, 3/5 for service read more

Came here for a fight night! Great service, laid back location, good food and giant TV's. I would not have known about this location had a friend not told us to meet him here but you walk through either the mini golf or virtual top golf entrances to the back where Forum Social House is tucked away like some speakeasy. Kinda cool! We came early in the day and had ordered a booth with a nice TV view which was a good idea since quite some people come in to watch the fights but I think you can still get get a good spot by just coming in early. Later in the night it's a full on nightclub and you need to show ID at the door. Our friends highly recommended the brussel sprouts which are sweet and mapley. We ordered some truffle fries and regular fries which were crisp and delicious. I ordered some onion rings and the breading was okay but overall crispy and delicious onions. The veggie burger wasn't too great. I didn't try the wings but my friends ordered a few and they looked sooo good. Probably the best app to order and everyone was trying to get some once they came out. read more

Food is okay, the mini golf is cool. But the bartender is trash. Got drinks, maybe 3-5 minutes later, Fire alarm went off so everyone was told to leave (of course). After about 30min, the alarm stopped so went back up, and was told they couldn't remake the drinks. "We don't know how long you were going to be gone. You could have just stayed and finished your drink". Bruh. You want me to stay and chug alcohol while there's potentially a hazard happening? Then suggested I go back to the table I was at to see if my drink was still there, drink it if it is. Because that's totally safe as a woman. As if women aren't warned since middle school to never drink after leaving your drink unattended. I hope that man never has a wife or daughter. Truly poor customer service from the guy that's "been here since open". Definitely going to recommend women not come here. read more

I saw this spot on yelp and thought it would be a nice place to stop by for a deal on happy hour food and drinks and play some miniature golf . Upon arrival we were told that happy hour was only at the bar area and that age limit was 21 and over so kids could not be there to get the happy hour so since there older I just had them sit outside the bar area and us in the bar area which they said there trying to fix with city permits. I did end up playing the mini golf course it it was decent definitely had a good theme of holes but the ball didn't bounce off the sides of the outside of course since they were like metal so bank shots were out of the question. Now onto the food and we tried quite a bit starting with chicken & Waffles which were awesome and definitely worth the happy hour price , We also had the cracked pepper fries which were good and even better at happy hour price , Next up was margarita flatbread which was one of my favorites just a great pizza. We did try the Birria Quesadilla which was ok but nothing to great , We also tried the malt vinegar fries which were ok and the onion rings were good and definitely better with ketchup and lastly the bacon cheeseburger which was a nice size and very good as well so over all all the food was really good. Last thing was service which the gentleman was very nice but they should've had several servers not just one server and bartender with like 15 tables being served so I will not ding them on that just because it was not his fault read more

The only real "club" feeling bar in Bellevue unless you like Lucky Strike (which I don't). They try to do bottle service which isn't really worth it since it's such a small space. DJ is pretty good most of the time. This is a spot to hit after you've had a few drinks at other places. It's usually where everyone ends up. read more

Went for family NYE party last night. Lynette was 10/10 giving us gold standard customer service. We had started as a small group with a bay and by the end of the night we had littles running all around as we ran in to other families we knew. She was always smiling and checking in with us. She was super friendly, not giving off any ounce of a pretentious vibe or anything other than genuinely welcoming and attentive, which sometimes isn't the case at places similar to this or especially when there's kids running around everywhere in an environment that's more upscale. This was our 3rd year attending the event and still a night we look forward to. The only miss I would say would be that the golf course really should have an attendant for safety reasons during the family NYE event. I felt like there were a lot of close calls with kids getting hit with flying golf balls and clubs swinging about. It was so overcrowded that we came to play golf after the "ball drop" instead and it was still overwhelming. I think it was partially due to parents just letting the kids play around on the holes vs actually playing mini golf though. Also, for candy, Id say have more of a variety without warheads. Most kids didn't want those so it was slim pickings as all the gummy bears, laffy taffy, and twizzlers, and starbursts were gone quick. I wonder if there's a way to have an early entrance VIP option for families who are willing to pay more for an option to come and experience a less crowded option. It was packed so quickly and we had a neurodiverse kiddo with us who would have liked to do the character meet n greet without being bombarded. Id pay $50 -$75 to get in the door up front with a cider at entry( would be easier to manage this and sugar up front for kids is better than at end of the night). with a limited number of tickets the first hour with mini golf reserved time too. Also would recommend having an area where there isn't music playing or lower the dj music experience. Had to yell a lot to talk and I saw a lot of parents having to get close to their kiddos to hear. I love the whole experience of the nightclub but I think there's some tweaks to be made given the flow of the event ( remove corn hole) but there's sooo much to do! No line somehow ( maybe we lucked out when we went up to stands) for the face spray painting and the balloon twisting which last year was not the case so kuddos for that improvement! Also could do without the horns as part of the assortment. I don't think any parent is excited about those being available all night. Maybe it comes out only before the confetti goes off? But still love the event and 5 stars still. read more

Be careful of the 21 percent service charge that is 100% retained by the house. Tip is needed on top of that. I have never seen such a high service charge explicitly state it was not for the staff. So expect your meal to be 21% more expensive than you budget for. HH food requires a drink purchase so I ordered an overpriced $5 ginger ale that tastes like water. Not worth it. Definitely better to just get a HH drink next time. Only benefit of this place was that they were cool with us doing a cookie exchange here. read more

Good night out spot in the heart of Bellevue downtown. Hung out with couple of friends before catching a late-night movie at Cinemark. There's good food and drinks here. Golf and bowling are the games you can play here. Lot of stations with spots to catch up incase you don't like to sit. We got the wings- my best one is the Korean ones- DAMN SPICY,it's not for faint hearts! They even mention saying there's no refund on this item if people complain its spicy.

Okay, I didn't play any of the games and it still gives me Parlor vibes, but Forum Social House wasn't a bad place for dinner and drinks. Nothing spectacular, but you don't really come here for the grub anyway. My friend and I were planning to see a movie nearby, so decided to check out Forum Social House for dinner beforehand since we had never been. You can make a reservation online, which was nice. I arrived there first and for the two of us, we had a big table to ourselves in the bar area. As Friday night went on, the more people came, the more it became more of a "be seen" scene. Ya know what I mean? We both ordered the mexi-cali salad and shared savage sliders. The portion was great for both of us. I liked the salad, as it had chicken breast with lots of greens, tortilla strips for some crunch and had an avocado crema dressing. The savage sliders came in four sliders with a side of fries. Not sure why they're savage because they're basic, with a smashed beef patty with some diced onion and cheese, sandwiched between a soft bun. They were solid, but the fries were meh. I can see why people upgrade their fries to truffle ones. Drinks were good, but they were pricey. We each ended up getting two skinny margaritas at $15 each, so you can do the math there. It was spendy. But the skinny margarita was one of the best ones I've had since they use Patron and no artificial sweetener. Just high-quality tequila and lime juice, which is how margaritas should be! Overall, this was a fine place for drinks and dinner, and I'll have to come back for the games next time. It seemed like a fun place to hang out, and I was told that what used to be the comedy room is now a dance floor, in case you're into that kind of thing. Like I said, it gave me Parlor vibes. So take that for what you will. read more
