At 10pm an employee starts the "we're closing in an hour" speech over the PA and then proceeds to make longer, louder and ruder announcements for the next hour basically about how we're all lame for being there on a Sunday night and should just leave already. It was every 10 mins from 10:30 -11:00pm.

The bartender is really nice and chatty and attentive, even if you're hardly drinking (she found some NA drinks for me during the 4 hours I was at the bar.

I think they would say it's "chef inspired" if I recall reading that on the menu or something. There are TVs everywhere! So whether you're bowling or sitting near or at the bar, you'll be able to catch the game. They also host lots of great events and that bartender Kelsey is really nice and should get a big fat raise!!!

My friends recommended going to Blazer tag and billed it as the best laser tag place you've never…read morebeen to. Everything about the place reminded me of a time from decades ago, but in a good way. First, the outside has a painted sculpture of a UFO crashing into the corner of the building. The inside is still run on paper - paper tickets for prizes, paper slips for entry into the arena, and even paper printouts for you final score and statistics. We bought an unlimited pass, intending to play more than two times to get our money's worth. Every game starts with an instructional video that lasts a few minutes. If there are enough people, everyone is split into teams. With fewer people, it is a free for all. The arena itself is massive. They claim they are the largest laser tag arena in Texas. The web description states it is a multi-tiered complex spanning three stories, with bridges and towers. When playing, it felt like there were many places to hide or camp out for a while. It was also physically tiring to move around the whole environment - something I didn't really feel in smaller venues. For scoring, try to tag the gems as much as possible. You'll also want to be aggressive since kills have a much bigger benefit to your score compared to the minor point losses if you die. We played a total of three games and we had more fun when lots of people were playing. One game had a lot of kids from a birthday party. The last one had a variety of people including students and college students. Everyone was pretty friendly and folks were high fiving strangers. Is this experience for everyone? Probably not. But if you want to walk/crouch around for an hour or so while shooting a bunch of people with lasers, it's going to be hard to find a spot more fun than Blazer Tag.

We opted for a package that included an hour of bowling, food & drinks for the kids, and a $10 arcade game gift card per child. This package was pretty affordable at $18 per child. They have add one such as goody bags and food/drink options for adults. We added a couple food platters for adults and the goody bags. Pros: - Affordable and convenient - low stress - kids had an absolute blast Cons: - Overall service was very average and slow. Inexperienced party host staff. - Room wasn't set up / ready until bowling was nearly done. - Upon arriving at the venue we learned that they didn't have goody bags available that day. This was disappointing because I would've expected a heads up at least one day in advance so that we can make other arrangements. They did provide an extra $10 on each child's game card to make up for it, which was nice.

Our food came in 15 min increments. So we started off with one pizza then the second and third pizza came out 15 min apart. This meant no one got to eat all at once which is really weird . The staff was then late to take us to Lazer tag and told us we might have to skip it all together because our party host arrived 3 min late to the game even though it was part of the package we paid for and not our fault our party host was dragging her butt. After hearing every excuse in the world including having a "manager" basically shush me and act like I was being unreasonable for demanding they stick to the party plan and stop being late to everything. After all this we ended up having to stay an hour and a half later than we had planned to experience everything we paid for and half the kids had to leave by that time which was really upsetting. They have no respect for your time they just want your money and once they have it you're no longer important. They had the nerve to give us a 1 hour of bowling for free gift card (to make it up ) while they gave us a $475 bill and wanted a tip. As if we are ever going back. This is after hearing "we have other people besides you to attend to what do you expect us to do we can't fix everything". Like I'm supposed to pay for a party package and not expect to get everything I paid for because they have more than one party . Just lazy !!! They have ZERO accountability, not one person really gave a damn. It was more like a burden to have to work. The whole place is going down hill and the restrooms are beyond filthy. The food is atrocious and even when we had to wait came out cold. Never had such a trashy worthless waste of money experience in my life as I did at this place. This isn't an opinion it's what happened.
