It felt like someone's home and we were in bedrooms. We thought they offered drinks because their bar but it's only mixed drinks.

Out of all the bay area Round1s, this Hayward location is not one of my favorite locations despite…read morebeing the closest to me. It's actually the smallest Round1 of the entire bay area. That being said, it has its good moments, but those moments pale in comparison to times when most machines are generally scams. I think the figures are a bit more fair to win, but they don't offer as large of a selection of those as the other Round1s. Also, most claw machines tend to be really weak, not close all the way, release at the top, or have the yellow tokens. They also tend to rotate in newer items slower than the other locations, since it takes longer to go through their stock. Compared to other locations, Hayward is smaller and has a more rowdy crowd. Ample amount of free and easy parking, though - just make sure to not expose any valuables. I've only bowled at this location, and there's usually always a few lanes open despite there being a limited amount. The ball return machine tends to break down every now and then, so be sure to locate the closest employee to flag when that happens - they won't give you back your time, and they are also strict with kicking you out when your time is up. Billiards is pretty chill here, too, and the nearby bathrooms are clean and respectable. The vibe is very chill, and you can people watch if you're sitting down for some food and drinks. I rather hang out at the Hayward location than the others due to the layout and overall relaxed vibe. Because it's Hayward, they are more prepared and serious about security checks come evening. It's definitely a cramped interior, but if it's the closest location to you, it can be a fun activity out if you're careful about spending. A lot of times employees are hard to find, but they are generally nice. And if you want even more things to do, or if people in your group want to do other things, they can just go to the mall (you have to go back out and around the building to enter). Don't forget to get the 99 cent ice cream before you leave!

I am so sad. I've been coming here for years and each time i spend over a hundred bucks and always…read moreend up with a few plushies. These past couple times? NOTHING. They are so greedy now. This time around i used my saved up tickets to get a small plush just so i can leave with a prize. Back then, you see everyone holding plushies and walking around. Now, maybe a few lucky winners? They filled a lot of the space with the mini claw machines. Do not play these!! You will not win! The claw strength for most of the machines are zero to none now and they have bumped up the prices for all of the claw machine games. They even force you to pay more for less credits now. Now it's either $120 or $140 ($110 before) and the credits definitely don't last as long anymore. Bad economy i guess. Don't come here if you actually want the prizes After using up 450 credits, i gave up and tried playing one of the marble games, the machine malfunctioned and refused to pay out the tickets. Asked someone to come look, a angry mechanic lady came by and walked around the machine, took a glance and left. I thought they needed to get help or something so i'm just sitting here and waiting for 30 minutes for them to come and try to fix it. Spoiler: they didn't come back to fix it nor come back to give an explanation to us. When i checked back at the reception, they said they sent someone to look at the machine but no one was at the machine(?) I AM LITERALLY SITTING IN FRONT OF THE MACHINE ARE YOU KIDDING ME. Then they sent the same angry mechanic to come back, who gave me a mean glare, opened and tinkered with the machine, couldn't fix anything, and proceeded to walk away without saying a word. Another 15 minutes went by, so i went back to the counter to just ask for my credits back since i don't want to wait anymore. They said they are fixing it and i will get the tickets once they finish fixing the machine. I'm like they aren't even there. But they said they can't give me back my credits -.- Ended up taking an L and just killing off the rest of the card and leaving. It's like they can't afford to let you win It's such a scam Imma just wait until I go back to Japan where it's like a dollar each play and there's actually a chance to win things. Good bye Hayward Round one.

Trying different Karaoke places in the area after reopening and found this one much closer to home…read more The rates were reasonable, song selections were acceptable and the rooms were clean. We called at 5 pm Saturd right as it opened and was told all the small rooms were booked, but they were willing to give us the mid size room for the same price. The guy on the phone and at the counter was friendly. He gave us a quick tutorial in the room and off we went. As in most Karaoke places it offered songs mainly in English and Chinese, as well as some other languages (Japan/Kpop/Vietnamese/Malay, etc) English songs are easiest to find, Chinese songs as usual are more challenging. If you can hand write 繁體字 or 简体字 it's to your advantage. The sound system was adequate but probably slightly inferior to Music Tunnel KTV in Cupertino. The mic looked new and they even provided mini masks to cover up the head for protection in case you got too intimate with the mic. The menu can be toggled in between English or Chinese, the functions were not overly complicated. They gave us complimentary bottled water but no other services. Our rates were $30/hr ($15 per 30 min to be exact), I don't know if it's the same for weekdays vs weekends. Overall it's very reasonable and we probably will be back due to its proximity.

Great place to go to belt out a couple of tunes. Great list of songs but was missing JOURNEY!!! How…read moredo you not have Journey?!! Anyways, that room is like a vortex where time seizes to exist and before you know it hours have passed and you owe a hefty sum. Most importantly the restrooms haven't been cleaned since the business first opened.

My coworker told me about this place a while back and wanted to check it out. I came when it was…read morethe weekend before my birthday in December since my birthday landed on a weekday this year, boo! Decided to come here because I've been wanting to come to a hookah bar for a while ever since I went to Miami!! My coworker said this was the place to go and man it was such a vibe walking in. My friends and I arrived a little before 9 and the bartender told us happy hour ends at 9 so what did we do? We ordered as many drinks as we could before it hit 9 o'clock lol. Also the hookah didn't start till 9 so we had time to kill lol. Then we found out there was food in the back to like can this place get any better?? I ordered myself fried chicken with fries while we waited for the hookah to be brought to us. It was $20 per plate which was not bad since they served a huge amount of food and it was cooked freshly. I love fresh cooked food that's the best! Outside in the back is where the food and where to pay for the hookah too, we decided to get watermelon flavor, great choice!! It only was $30 for the hookah which is not bad at all, good pricing if you ask me! The type of music they were playing was like 2000 music which I love, I grew up listening to that music it was such a vibe all night! It's took like 10-15 minutes to get our food and man that food was soooo good and fresh I loved it!! Right after we got our Hooka and it was soo flavorful but not too heavy so it was more like a light head rush. The man in charge of the Hookah would come around and make sure we had enough hookah and would switch out the old square cubes and replace them with new one for us! Overall I loved this place the bartender was great customer service, music was such a vibe, food was great, and to top it off the hookah was on point!!
