I don't ever go bowling, but this place was a lot of fun. The lighting was cool, they had food and drinks, and the music was great. The vibe is great here, and my friends and I were like we really should come bowling more often after our experience here.

Location: Located near Memorial area, this bowling alley is hard to miss. As a standalone building on Bunker Hill! Parking: During the mid-day, Parking is great and not too full! You can still fins premium parking! Ambiance: Very clubby bowling alley with the lights, music to keep things rocking, and cheers in the background! Food: The menu looks really good. I ordered the Honey Chipotle Chicken Bowl. It left a bit to be desired. It came with Jasmine Rice, which was underdone and a bit hard. The Bowl also had black beans, Romaine, Pineapple Salsa, and chicken. The pineapple salsa was just okay. Would've loved more pineapple and the sweetness didn't quite taste like pineapple, but regular sugar. The chicken needed a bit more Chipotle for the flavor to come through. Lets just say, there are other options go choose from on the menu. Choose one of those please. The Service: From the front desk/shoe attendants to the table hosts, every was so super nice!!! In short, we had a great time and experience bowling and being super competitive. I would come back, but I wouldn't order the same food.

Older alley, but has great promotional deals. The drinks were subpar and I, unfortunately, had a very rude experience with the lane attendant (dismissive, rushed me off the lane after faiing to clean up during our reservation). It was clear that she did not want to be at work that evening. I brought it to the manager's attention, who tried to resolve it. She was communicative and solutions-based, but I never returned to take her up on her offer to bowl again free of charge.

Came for a friend outing! We had several lanes, various food options and a great time! The staff here are very friendly and the ambiance is great! Definitely one of my preferred bowling locations in Houston

This is my 2nd time here and shockingly it wasn't bad at all. The service was friendly and quick. The lanes and the place itself were pretty clean. They do have specials depending on the time and day you come. I think they have an unlimited bowling for $25 on certain days. We arrived on a day where the only special was the 3rd game is half price. So we played 3 games and in total it came out to be around 75 dollars together along with the shoe rental. Definitely was a little pricy in my opinion but when you're having fun it doesn't really matter. I can't speak about their food because I will never order food from a bowling alley. Overall, solid spot. It looks more on a clubby side & the music is loud. Will I come back? Yes.

I love the arcade games and bowling, it is awesome now for the bar area, I dislike how when people order drinks for last call they manually enter the price of drinks and then over charge. Smh

I booked a couple of lanes to have a "friends day" a few days ago. Booking online to reserve the lanes is a little confusing. I wanted to reserve lanes but I wasn't sure who was coming. There's no way to reserve multiple lanes without adding the max number of guests (and paying for all). It's possible I may have been confused, but I spoke to someone on the phone and they stated the same, so I only booked one lane. The person I spoke with let me know they usually keep lanes open next to a single booking in case more people show up. Needless to say, that didn't happen lol. The lane next to us ended up getting booked. Kevin, one of the managers, helped us out with all of our needs once our party arrived. I let him know the situation and He was very accommodating! He wasn't stressed out at all and kept a smile on his face as he figured out how to move our lanes to accommodate more people. The food was good, music was dope, and we got the chance to play a lot of arcade games after we bowled! Also, this used to be a different company. They COMPLETELY revamped it and the vibes are immaculate!!!

Super fun bowling alley! There is an arcade and bar with food. Service was nice. We enjoyed our time and would go back!

See all

I might just have to do a national barcade tour. We were here on Sunday afternoon, so there were…read morepeople everywhere, but I still had a blast. This place serves food, drinks, and has plenty of games! You can either buy your tickets in person or online beforehand. It's $12 for entry and you can stay as long as you want and come and go with unlimited game access. From what I can tell, some days have specials. Only additional purchases are food and drinks, obviously. They have pizzas, quesadillas, salads, dessert pizzas, and pizza burritos. I tried that last thing because I had never heard of it -- think of it as like a glorified hot pocket. It was delicious! I had a salad to balance things out, and I'll surprised by how hefty it was! Since I had never had their cider before, I decided to do a flight of five. When I placed my order, I was expecting them to give me a tray of five 1 oz pours... But instead, they told me the flight will consist of five 5 oz cups.... WHOA. So I grabbed the first two and had to come back for the rest after I finished. Every single one was delicious, but I really liked the mango habanero and the one with the coconut. Now, the games... I rarely come to a barcade that has TWO Guitar Hero setups. And they had plenty of classic cabinets, air hockey, Mario Kart, shooting games... Claw machines... It was quite epic. By the way, the claw machines did cost extra, and I peeped a party room in the back that had those interactive team floor games! That would be fun to reserve for a special occasion. This place really impressed me. If you enjoy games in a bar setting, I would recommend this spot if you are in the Houston area.

I've been there with a group of adults and also with a group of kids, and just note that while it's totally fine (and very fun!) for kids, it's probably better for adults--there's no kid security check-in at the front, and the building is very big, with lots of games. We ordered a pizza from a touchscreen by a food window, and the pizza was actually pretty good, much better than I was expecting at an arcade. The downside was that, in the lunch rush, it took 30-40 minutes for that one pizza to come out, though you could tell they were individually making each item in the big pizza oven. If you want drinks, you separately order those at the front, near where you check in, which is a little odd to have two separate food/drink ordering spots. When we walked in, we paid for a wristband, which gave "free" access to all of the arcade games, except for the claw machines, which required you to buy an extra card.

There are numerous signs clearly displayed letting people know it is not in fact an arcade. Even the company's voicemail message makes it clear. Joystix Classic Games & Pinballs is actually a working showroom that opens once a month for Pac-Man Fever Night, when every game is set to free play. It's one of the most fun and unique experiences in Houston. We hosted my wife's birthday party here, and it was fantastic. Renting the space was simple, the staff was awesome, and having the 1820 Lounge next door made it the perfect setup for a group celebration. Everyone had an amazing time. I highly recommend booking the showroom for events, you will not be disappointed. The owner is Charlie, he is outstanding. He is friendly, passionate, and deeply knowledgeable about pinball and arcade history. You can tell he truly cares about preserving the hobby and sharing it with others. He takes care of his customers and is very courteous to those who are considering a purchase. If you love pinball, classic arcades, or just want to do something different, Joystix is a must-visit Houston gem.

My family and I truly enjoyed every visit, and now they even have a bigger location in Bellaire! What really makes this place stand out is that they genuinely make the experience fun for everyone. They are very generous with prizes and don't make the games frustratingly difficult. Even my 2-year-old grandchild was able to play and win something We also love that they allow prize trades, and the points needed for prizes are actually reasonable compared to other places. Another thing we noticed is that their prize selections are actually QUALITY items--not cheap junk toys like you sometimes see at other arcades. That really made the experience feel worth it. Highly recommend this place for family fun, especially if you want an experience where you actually go home happy and with prizes We came home with so many prizes and memories that we still continue talking about after each visit.

I am very dissatisfied with the service here. Even though the staff had just counted the prizes and…read moregiven me the number of tickets I won, my 5-year-old daughter accidentally dropped a 5-point token on the floor, and it rolled under the claw machine. I politely asked if they had a broom or something long so I could retrieve it myself, but from that point on, the staff started showing an unpleasant attitude. When I asked them to exchange the tickets for toys, they deliberately ignored me and insisted that I pay for each item separately instead of combining them and giving me the total number of tickets. When my child asked for help opening the toy packaging, they said they had nothing to open it with--although another staff member later helped my child open it. Their attitude ruined my family's enjoyable trip. I have been a loyal customer of this place and visit every time I come to Houston. I will never come back here again.

Hey, not bad for a 10 series card graphics computer set. Though would be nice as well and I wish, if you have the space and area to dedicate to have some people bring their own setups and stuff. ::Pros:: + Nice, cozy gaming environment + Computers are solid, and the fact that you have old-school arcade stuff is a bonus + Rates are comfy with bonus times on 7 dollars on an hour charge, and the further you seem to get to it, the more discounted it gets. ::Cons:: - Nothing much really, but just watch out and inform the guy in front if your computer crashes (it's a ggleap thing).

It is a bunch of computers with a gaming headset, keyboard, and mouse. We had to ask a bunch of questions and ultimately decided on a hour of play. Let me first state I am not a gamer so this review is based on my non-gaming perspective. We selected two computers but one was not working so we had to shift so we could be next to each other. We chose our computer and had to setup our accounts, I think that took away from our hour. My kid wanted to play Fortnite and it took a while to login and get started but we were able to use accounts that were licensed from the store or you could use your own. I decided to switch to Among Us about half way in and the chat was LOUD. I used the sound key on the keyboard but it barely changed a thing, there was no volume control on the headset so I took it off. After 2.5 rounds my time was up so I just waited for my child to finish. As we were leaving a noticed the once 25% full place was about at 75% so it can fill up quickly and we went on a Sunday afternoon. Would I go back, maybe but bring a jacket, it was freezing.
