    Bowling was cool that's about it never coming back.
    Coori F.

    Came here for a quick outing with family. Getting bowling shoes went smoothly after that everything went down hill. Our waiter was new no fault to him we've all been new on a job. He was nice and trying to help as much as he could but his manger and team are just incompetent and unprofessional. Our food took forever when it finally came they forgot my wife's order. So we waited another 20min before we were able to ask someone where is her food. When it finally arrives it's wrong smh. Now it's time to leave and our waiter is helping another customer that has an issue, again not his fault. We wait and wait and wait until finally we get a manager to try and check us out. The manger we didn't get his name was a tall African American male . He was unprofessional and dismissive I would ask how he got the position but "managing" a main event requires 2 brain cells. Never coming back to say the least and seeing all the 1 star reviews here is proof something is definitely broken and main event doesn't care to fix it.

    My nephew's birthday was held here and I must say it was a wonderful first-time visit experience. Not sure if it was because of the upcoming holiday but for a Saturday afternoon just before Thanksgiving this place was soooooo quiet which probably made this visit even better. Located just off Mansell and next door to Sam's Club, parking was a breeze and the only issue we had was due to built up traffic from Sam's Club when we were leaving. There was plenty of space for the kiddos to have the time of their life with bowling, laser tag, and arcade games. There's an obstacle course as well but I did not see anyone on it. I liked that there were two huge separate spaces for bowling and the graphics for the kiddos bowling time was festive and they had bumpers and this cute little dinosaur assist that they could use to push the bowling ball down and they loved it. The arcade space was huge and there were a ton of options for all ages. Unfortunately a lot of the games were not working so we ended up playing a lot of the same game multiple times. For those who win enough "tickets" there's a huge "Winner's Circle" room to select the prize(s) of your choice. The kiddos also played laser tag and had a complete blast! There's a huge restaurant space and pizza spot inside but both were closed at the time. The bar area was nice and there were a good people hanging around there watching games. There a big open space for those celebrating birthdays but no private rooms that I could see so while there were several parties happening at the same time, there were moments of chaos between kids from different groups being in the same space and the tables for each groups being in pretty close proximity. The person who was assigned to our group did her best to manage our large party but she was handling everything (food, drinks, taking any additional orders) on her own. Overall a really good experience andddd I really appreciated how clean the space was including the bathrooms!

    We met up with another family to come here and play. The laser tag room was very large. The bowling was fun. The arcade had lots of games for my kids. The adults enjoyed the shuffleboard. The food and drinks were tasty. This place gives you a lot of options to have a good time. The servers worked hard to accommodate our needs. would definitely return.

    Its been years since ive been back at main event and this was for a job event. It was fun, nobody was there except two working groups. I played lazer tag, bowling and they gave us a card to play the individual games. I played basketball, Pac man etc snd I just felt like a kid again. Main Event has always been pretty cool in my book. Go check it out sometime if you havent

    Laser tag
    Maricely R.

    Came here had a few drinks . The bar always takes a really long time to order something which is unfortunate because they have a lot of staff back there. I'm not sure what that's about but other than that laser tag was great. The staff member was friendly explained everything to us he even joined when there wasn't enough on one of the teams I would definitely go here again love the vibe .

    Fun Friday night with the family. Surprisingly not very busy on a Friday night at 8pm. Tons of parking available outside, decently clean facility (minus plenty of empty cups everywhere I turned). Large, spacious and well stocked restrooms. Tons of games to play in the arcade but a handful of games took my money and we weren't able to play (Snow down, Barrel of monkeys, Skee ball, Gold Fishin', Toy Zone Claw Game). My husband and son were able to play laser tag in about 10 minutes which was great. They had a good time and said the laser tag was 2 levels. We didn't try any of the food but we did grab drinks from the bar. Pricey, but we expected that. My son loved the cotton candy Shirley temple with candy and color changing straw. Great music playing over the speakers.

Which was sad because we were supposed to be there to celebrate my son's 13th birthday. He was excited to try this place out. We drove over an hour to be disappointed. First we walk in an hour after opening on a Sunday, place was empty.......we walk right up to the counter and I tell the girl that I had looked the pricing up online and I knew I wanted to do the 3 race, game card, and k1 membership pass for 3 boys. She gave me a blank stare and then said oh you mean 2 race. Ok. Rude. But ok yeah that. She proceeds to ask the boys had they ever been there before. 1 of my sons friends says yes. So she goes you need to go check him on the computer with a waiver first because he has a membership so you won't pay for that part for him. Here I am thinking oh she is being helpful after being wrong. I smile. We go to computers do the waiver for 1 boy as instructed. We go back to the counter now 2 more groups have come in. We have to wait behind 1 group now since there is only one cashier/check in person although there were at least 5 other staff in the building including a manager. Anyway after we wait for that group to check in. I step back to the counter and THEN she proceeds to tell me oh you didn't do the waiver for the other two. I'm like you told me to do it only for the one that had been here before. So again we step out of line and go BACK to the computers. At this time I'm starting to get annoyed. By this time more people are coming in, so now my boys will have to wait behind several big groups when we arrived before ALL of these people. When I finally get back to the counter.....all boys are checked in. She got RUDE again. And wanted to loudly explain pricing to me and make sure I knew that the boys only got a $10 game card for what I was about to pay. Like VERY loud. I didn't hear her do this with any of the other groups that checked in before us and I hate to say this.......none of them were my complexion. Never once was I rude or matching her volume or tone. We actually walked in that place happy because we were supposed to be celebrating. Well anyway it didn't stop there. Once we got checked no instructions were given on what to do next outside of the girl at the counter giving me my receipt and their game cards. So my boys walked over to where you line up to go on the track and yet another employee was RUDE to them by telling them to back away from the gate and wait for someone to call them. They are EXCITED to be here Jeesh, so then after she yells at them they come over to me saying they not going to let her ruin the joy. They finally get called to race and all the boys are overwhelmed after the employees stopped the cars several time or slowed their speed down all during the race. Then in between their first and second race we went to their "arcade" which only has 12 games......which none of them are less than 40 credits for 1 game. $10 gets you 200 in credits. While one of the boys was in the process of playing a game they got called back for their 2nd race. It was EVEN worse than the first one. We decided to opt out of trying their food and went somewhere else to grab lunch. 0 stars would not recommend.

    I've come here a couple times and very much enjoyed it. It's a nerd wonderland! Not only is it a…read morerestaurant but it also is a place where you can come & game both in a play console or a computer station. You may rent out areas for larger groups or even a cute date night. On top of that they have a variety of board games as well as a karaoke area. They hold amazing event nights such as themed trivia and special costume socials for your enjoyment. The staff is friendly and very hospitable. The food is great! They have a variety of option but I recommend the Cowboy Bibimbap, it's delicious and very filling! They also have a full bar and an amazing cocktail menu. Plenty of complementary parking in the lot. Dress code is casual. I'm definitely coming back to try more of their dishes and maybe play some Mario Kart!

    Our visit was on May 16th, 2026. We had large group, which when we called ahead (4 hours ahead of…read moretime) they said that they couldn't take reservations. They told us that we would have to show up and just wait to be seated... fine. No big deal, again we are a large group coming in HOT on the weekend... I get it. We call ahead again, closer to the time we were planning to arrive to double check. THIS TIME they said they could reserve us a space and that it wouldn't be a problem. We get there and everything is seemingly fine. The vibes are good and the waiters are taking orders diligently. We understand that this is a huge group (16 of us) and that we would have to be patient with them as they are with us. So everyone puts in there orders. First wave comes out... I noticed that all the food is cold. Not ideal but the food was good so whatever. Second wave comes out, again the food is cold and peoples orders are missing. Fine. We are a big group, it happens. 3rd wave comes and they are seemingly trying to land the plane with us, finalizing anything that may have been missed while also getting refills. One of my friends that was a part of that first wave was still waiting his burger that he ordered (he had informed them twice at this point). 45 mins later the waiter checks on us again... My friend still doesn't have his burger. Cool AGAIN this is a big group... It happens. My side of the table who got all their food are ready to play some games now. We go to the front counter and there is seemingly a good cop/bad cop routine going on. One host says we can rent a station the other says we can't unless all 16 of go to that station. I told him not everyone wants to play games so what if we just cash out now then the 4 of us that do can just play/sit at the station. "YOU CAN'T DO THAT ITS AGAINST THE POLICIES" O....kay... whatever don't take my money, I then tell him I'd like to cash out anyway. "YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" I can't pay you now? "THE TAB CAN ONLY BE SPLIT 5 WAYS" Huh? So not only was this not brought to our attention beforehand but you want to be a jerk about it? There reason was because some people run out on the bill and things get missed. Meanwhile the entire table is sitting here with their cards out ready to pay you? Not to mention if something is missed thats on YOU as you are the person entering the stuff into the system. Mind you we still have folks that were missing food or order was taken only for it to be sitting under a heat lamp. After some back and forth we paid (which they REFUSED to give us an itemized receipt) only for a smug waiter to come out with the missing deserts with creepy smile to literally say to us "I hope you enjoy it..." Nope. Not eating that. Matter fact we will never eat here again. This has been a yearly tradition for some Dreamhack attendees and I can wholeheartedly say that I'll NEVER step foot in here again more will anyone I associate with. If I could give it a 0 I would.

    I came here with a friend who was visiting from out of town and we decided with the dicey weather,…read morewe would try to get some bowling in while also looking at playing some video games. From my last visit with family, we had a lot of playing cards and credits/tickets on a bunch. Judith was working at the ticket station and was kind enough to help us understand how to combine the leftovers and make one master card to hold all the tickets. We also were advised to hold onto the empty ones so they could be refilled when family come back to Cumming for Thanksgiving weekend! Walking over to the bowling desk, Carl was helpful in getting us set up and grabbing a lane that we wanted, close to the wall. Lance 1 was out of order, so we got a couple games in on lane 2. With two people it was very affordable, instead of paying by the hour for cosmic bowling. Less than $30 which is a great deal. Afterwards, we decided to play the Marvel coin and card game that my brother and I started in May. We spent the good part of an hour just trying to collect the missing cards for sets that we could get. Both my friend and I sat there for about 75 minutes. One machine went down twice, but Nate came over and made some adjustments and we were able to continue without losing credits or time. Nate knew what he was doing since both times we were back and playing within a couple minutes. As we were in a rush to get going for our dinner plans, we walked back to the counter and Andrew explained how to redeem full sets of the (9 total per set) Marvel cards for 3,000 tickets. Individually the cards are worth 50 tickets each. Andrew was patient and explained our options as well, in order for us to know the best way to set up my nieces and nephew the next time we come back to bowl and play games together as a family. Thanks to the team here for making sure my friend and I had a great time. It was a Monday afternoon and there was a deal Judith told us about after 4 PM. So we had a great time. Thank you Stars and Strikes! So fun!
