    Look at this treasure at the end of the rainbow!
    Natalie C.

    My husband and I have been bowling on league here for several years. It is a bigger bowling alley, however it is arranged in a manner that separates leagues from the party center. The staff is so friendly and attentive. Also, the brisk air from their top notch air conditioning is greatly appreciated on hot summer days. League bowlers get an assorted of valuable coupons every month, along with excellent bowling discounts. I don't want to forget to praise the pro shop, which has a great selection of reasonably priced bowling balls and shoes. Will did a great drop drilling our bowling balls!

    La Cancion

    I like this place for bowling and arcade games, but I have to say they have really good drinks. My group would come here just for the appetizers and drinks especially "la Cancion". Call me weak but after the 2nd one I have reached my limit. Service is always superb even when busy. Inside is very clean and always full of laughter. Fun place to go.

    Created my own tacos from the South of the Border catering menu.

    Thus far, I've only been here twice, and both times primarily for a work event. So technically I cannot review things based on cost and value. But so far so good, I'd say! Here's some info about this modern bowling alley called KingPins: : Parking Situation : Two choices, park in the front where the spaces are wider and normal. But keep in mind it's shared with the other shops and restaurants that it can get packed. Or park in the garage behind KingPins, only the spaces are crammed and NOT normal in size. It's like every space is compact. Or bring your Tesla and you can charge at a Supercharger. Which is also in the garage. :: Bowling Lanes & Layout :: From the main entrance, you immediately see the arcade area for the kiddos to go play. Give them a FunCard and they'll be on their way to insta-gratification! They even have a few VR games and a LaserTag arena. From the rear entrance, from the garage, you'll be in the general lanes area where anyone can reserve a lane. Besides the arcade is another set of lanes, in which they are primarily used for large groups or company events. I believe the bowling leagues play on this side as well. This side is better because it's also where the bar is, called TapHouse. There are plenty of tables and chairs, and for the most part they've been clean. ::: Food & Service ::: Thus far, no issues with service. At the counter where you borrow shoes, the staff behind there have been welcoming and helpful. As far as the wait-staff at the bar area, they too have also been pretty cordial. Regarding TapHouse and the food menu, in which I've only had tried what catered. They sell company party catering packages, and I gotta say the food really isn't that bad at all. The cocktail drinks however are super expensive. Two drinks easily $24 to $28, not including tip. Yep, a $13 average. Specialty beers on tap, about half the average. :::: Overall :::: KingPins is definitely "family oriented" in my opinion. Gone are the days of old stinky smokey bowling alleys. Keep your kids busy bowling or entertain them in the arcade. For the most part, I've had fun bowling here, and I really don't mind it here at all. This location has been open for quite some time, but it still appears new I would say. Service was pleasant, and the food/drink options are decent. Just be aware mixed drinks can be pretty pricey. Now go smoke a bowl!

    Went here on a Saturday night with a group of friends and had a blast! One of our friends reserved two lanes ahead of time as Saturday nights can get busy. The atmosphere is fun, especially when the bowling alley turns into cosmic bowling. There is also a huge arcade room. We ordered tater tots, fries, nachos, and pitchers of beer for the entire group. The serving size is huge! It's typical food that you can get at a bowling alley, so no complaints there. Service was quick. The bowling screen was interactive and unique. All in all, it's a fun place with lots to do. A great spot for big groups, events, or just a fun night out for both adults and kids.

    This spot is THE place for cost effective happy hour. Ironically we didn't go here for bowling or the arcade, literally just the happy hour, and I was very impressed. The drinks were reasonable ($4-$8 range), and the snacks were as well! Worth noting, it's a bowling alley.... So the atmosphere isn't exactly intimate. But it's not bad!

    I was super bummed that the Minion Wack-A-Mole was out of order

    I have said that I am not a fan of King Pins. I don't really like bowling on a timer. They did have a 23.99 "video" games, bowling and laser tag pass. I actually thought that we would have to pay for the bowling shoes, but turns out that they were included as well. That was a big bonus. We played a lot of pop a shot, Skee Ball, and my son and daughter did a few rounds of Lazer Tag and VR. We also bowled a couple games each. The video games are weak though. Understandable that due to the promotion no tickets or prizes were awarded...for video game enthusiasts I highly recommend Next Level Pinball Shop and Museum. Excellent value with in and out privileges as well. However there was value in this deal and we had a good time

    We stopped in on a Sunday while visiting the area because we saw they had late night laser tag! They have a variety of different games, an area for drinks and bowling along with their laser tag. It wasn't too busy when we went, but you could tell people have fun here. We spent $8/person for each 15 minute session and got lucky (in our opinion) and had the whole laser tag area to ourselves. This meant every man for themselves and we had so much fun. There were targets to hit for points along with each other and they have an upstairs and a downstairs. We ended up playing two rounds and had so much fun each time. I won the first round and for second the next. It's always more fun when you win. My friends and I ended up playing some games afterward and didn't win many tickets but still walked away with some vampire teeth as prizes. We're already talking about going back before our trip ends, it was such a great time.

    Thy lanes don't allow proper slide. It's dangerous for someone with proper bowling technique.

For just $23/day with in-and-out privileges, you can play unlimited games to your heart's content. With over 690 games and growing, wall-to-wall memorabilia and signed photos, and everything from childhood classics to newer titles -- they've got it all. And if you're a pinball wizard, this is absolutely your place. Hours are 10am to 9pm with plenty of parking. Getting hungry mid-session? No problem. You can bring your own food or grab something from their outdoor food carts -- hot dogs, pizza, you name it. There are also restaurants nearby, and with in-and-out privileges, you'll definitely want to take a break and refuel before diving back in. They even have a party room available for birthday parties or corporate events. And don't overlook the bathrooms -- yes, the bathrooms -- because the memorabilia continues in there too! Fair warning: I was so obsessed that I played all day long... and woke up the next morning with seriously sore hands. Totally worth it. Pro tip -- bring a friend or partner, because the two-player games are even more fun, and some games like Mario Kart let you race four or more players at once. I still can't believe they had all my favorites from the 1980s: Pac-Man, Asteroids, Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros., Joust, Star Wars, BurgerTime, Rampage, Moon Patrol -- and so much more. Also, make sure to sign up for their club -- members get in for $20 on Thursdays, and your 10th visit is completely free. I'd give this place 10 stars out of 5 if I could. It's one of the most amazing arcades I've ever been to, and you absolutely will not regret going.

We ordered a Root 84 classic for the time being as we weren't sure if we were going to order anything else as we were stuffed.

We couldn't stay for that as well as we drove from Washington and were very tired, but my boyfriend said he would be so down to go back on a karaoke night to sing some of his favorite 80s songs. I loved seeing all their different 80s arcade games as I have never seen any of those games as I was born in 1993 so it was really cool to see some early arcade machine designs as well as the pinball machines too. The vibes inside are dark with neon lights which I really love and they had a retro menu sign inside the bar. Mars was the owner who came to introduce us to the place and directed us to the bar as well.

The service is consistently rude, cold, and unprofessional. It's the same group every time, and nothing ever improves. There's no sense of customer service. Just short attitudes and a clear vibe that they don't want to be there or deal with people. On my most recent visit, I had an issue where my phone number was entered incorrectly. When I pointed it out, instead of simply fixing it, the response I got was irritation and attitude. Like I was the problem for asking them to correct their own mistake. That kind of interaction is unacceptable anywhere, especially in a place that markets itself as family-friendly. At this point, it's not a one-off, it's a pattern. When multiple visits consistently come with the same poor experience, it reflects a bigger issue with management and expectations.
