Monday they offer unlimited games OR activities for $10.95. Only thing is they don't tell you games do not include any that give you prizes. Half the video games my kids wanted to play gave out prizes or tickets. So I ended up spending extra cash anyway. Was not greeted by any servers the first hour I came in. Took myself to the bar to order and even then it was hard to get the bartenders attention. A server did come in for her shift later and she immediately greeted me so I did appreciate her hospitality. Still beats Dave and busters prices even though Dave and busters has more games. Food was ok. Both the Burgers and side of fries are very small. read more

Two dollar signs is right, it will cost you about $25 per person for video games and attractions. One "ride" is $9 so might as well buy unlimited pass. Kid heaven! Lots of cool arcade games, bowling, the lazer tag is 2 stories tall, and the Gravity ropes are fun too. Kids can get their energy out rather than passively sitting on a ride like at Amazing Jakes or Golfland. The place is also super clean and new looking. You can either sit down and order from a server or visit la bella's Pizza cafe inside. Good place to spend the day! read more

Horrible service, we had to stand in line for 10 minutes and there were at least 5 other staff just cleaning shoes. We got food, but never got anyone to come to us. We had to order from the bar, and when we got the food it was cold and horrible. Wouldn't ever go back. Staff wasn't even nice. read more

This place is awesome! Laser tag, bowling, games, pool. I liked it a lot I wanna go again soon, and the food is really good too

Walked into main entertainment on Wednesday sat down at a table for about 10 minutes and no waiter took my drink order or ask me if I needed help. About three waiters walked right past me made eye contact but it seems that they were more focused on the bar than me and my family party of six. As me and my party decided to get up and go I walked over to the customer service table and spoke with a manager and said hey maybe you should speak with your waiters in regards to there customer service manager acted like I was not important and said yeah I will go head and do that I felt like he was mocking me. To make things worse it was not even that busy but it seems like there were more focused on talking then helping out customers. But no worries drove over to Dave and Busters and they managed to salvage my night. read more

Went here was really crowded and the music is crazy Loud! Then when you get inside its even louder I think the owner is deff or something! I've been to a lot of places but the music is sooo freaking loud I just took my money elsewhere for this reason . It's sooo crazy loud and not good music like 90s hits off of Pandora. read more

I had the most amazing time celebrating my 22nd birthday with my family and friends. We were a group of 11 and all got the championship package. We did the gravity ropes, laser tag, bowling and arcade games. Then we also had an hour to eat and I want to recognize Hector for his amazing service! I've never been so pleased with our server as much as I was with him. He took care of our entire group and made sure we all left happy. This has been the best birthday I've had by far and I know my entire group loved being there as well. We will all be recommending this place to our friends for the near future. Thank you also to Spencer for taking care of any needs/questions we had once we were there! Over such a great experience and I can't wait to come back for another event. Thank you so much hector for making this night memorable, fun, and easy going for all of us! read more

They kicked out Bride & Groom from laser tag after they'd reserved for their party far in advance. Turns out another party booked later, then showed up w/too many people, grabbed all the laser vests and the staff's solution was to turn a portion of the bridal party away, including bride and groom. read more

The idea and set up is great and the food is what you'd expect. Went there with the family along with another family; total of 6 kids. We bought the kids tickets to the Gravity ropes and only after we purchased the tickets they told us that the wait is 2 hours! Since we got there for Dinner at 730pm and the place was pretty empty we wondered why? Long story short they refunded out money and alowed the kids to go on it for 3 mins. On a seperate day my son went with his baseball team (12 years old) at around 11am on a week day. Six of the boys wanted to play billards and one employee directed my wife to go to the bar and get the billard balls, as she headed that way she noticed no one was there so she went back and told the original employee who replied "you'll just have to wait." It took 15 mins to get someone to the bar to reach under the counter and give her the equipment. Laser tag and bowling are loads of fun as well as the coin games. It can and is pricey but when the weather is hot... it's not a bad place to have kids run around and do something other than stay home and play video games. read more

This is not the place to go if you're a serious bowler. The lanes are not well-oiled, so your carefully-aimed ball won't go exactly where you want it to. Otherwise, a fun place. The laser tag is fun, and we enjoyed shooting pool. It was our first time here, and I think we'll go back. read more

Went in with my family who were here from out of town Friday night. We wanted to do something fun and decided to try here for the first time. At first our visit was rocky as we were lost at what to do and kept getting sent back and forth but Stephanie (I think that was her name) really turned out night around! She got us a bowling lane quickly and helped clear everything up. Then our bowling lane broke and we got delayed but the manager (I think) gave all 6 of us a game card for an hour and a half of free play. All in all we had a really good night minus the few set backs. Highly recommended doing laser tag! read more

This place is awesome! There's so much to do! We went during the wrong time of year though. Unfortunately, even at noon on a Friday the place is packed with holiday parties so there's no available pool tables or bowling lanes. I'm sure it will be a blast after the new year. This is basically a shiny new version of Dave and Busters. read more

The bartenders suck... Good luck getting anything without trying hard. At least the bar back girl was friendly. Also be prepared to be asked if you want to open a tab every single time you order a drink. Talk about short term memory. read more

Feels like being in a loud warehouse - it's expensive and hard to navigate the different entertainment options - no real comfortable area to relax for a couple hours - not a great customer experience - for the money - I would prefer competitive options in the area - read more

This place is extremely overpriced and their staff members are not trained well. I can't say I was given misinformation because that's not accurate. I was lied to is a more fitting statement. My family went here for my daughter's birthday, and purchased the daily pass bands to have unlimited access to all the events. I confirmed again and again with different people in the front that there haven't been any changes due to COVID and we would be able to enjoy the laser tag and gravity ropes. They assured us again and again. So we started off with bowling, then the arcades, then attempted the gravity ropes and were told that it's been pre-booked for the whole day!! What? Ok, what about the laser tag? Reserved for the whole day. Wait, what?! So you conned me into getting the wrist bands and we can't do anything but bowl and arcades. 2 days later, I see multiple charges on my credit card, after speaking to Lucy and Leah, those charges are for the bowling lanes!! What's the point of buying the wrist bands when I'm being charged for everything again?! So I reach out to speak with the manager Michael, who refuses to speak to me on the phone himself but is passing his messages to the front to inform me that he can refund one of my bowling lane charge. Not for families, and only about profit. Never again. read more

loved coming here! I didn't do the bowling though. Everything else was great. People at the front desk, laser tag, gravity ropes, and bar were super nice and helpful! Definitely will come back. Laser tag was the best :) read more

I had alot of fun with my family . My brothers and i played alot of games while my parents got to stay at the table and have alone time. It was a great experience the employees treated you with respect and as if you were best friends for years. Everyone greeted my family with a smile from the moment we walked in. The food was amazing alittle bit pricey but was almost the best food i have ever had. The burgers were wonderful, very big and delicious. I had an amazing time everyone should come here !! read more

Main Event Tempe - Arcades Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

This place is always fun. Came in for on a work event for the 2nd time. Service at the bowling alley was really fantastic. Our waiter went out of his way to get a cheese for food without beer for a pregnant worker. Also after we all eventually walked away he tracked us down to thank us and make sure we were still set on food and drinks. Great for group events and parties. read more

What a rip off. I manage a group home with 4 boys. We went to see what Main Event was all about in west Phoenix. We were there about 30 minutes and spent $75.00 and we didn't even eat or drink We paid $36.00 for about 15 minutes worth of games and over $8.00 a person for about 12 minutes on the ropes course. I tried to buy the boys a soda but it was $3.86 for a large. Shame on you Main Event in these hard times I would think you would want to reach out to your community but you're just another greedy corporation. Spread the word stay out of Main Event. Charlie Drayer (602) 486-0265 read more

Bad. Bad. Bad. No service element at all. Bunch of staff standing around hanging out while my drinks sat waiting with the bartender. And booking a group at a lane before the day of is a joke. You have to sign a non refundable contract and lucky if someone actually assists you. read more

I have never been to anything like this before! It was a super cool experience and totally worth what ever it was we spent! When we are back in Arizona I would love to come back! read more

Drinking, bowling, arcade, lazer tag, pool tables, gravity course...pretty cool place.

I was NOT a fan of this place. At 1st I thought hey cool place but quickly changed my mind. The bowling sucks because you have to pay for the hour and then you get kicked off your lane. The drinks were terrible I guess the waitress said something was wrong with the lines. Nope nope not coming back here. Waste of money. read more

We decided to take advantage of one of the summer specials on Monday night. All you can play laser tag, bowling, billboards and ropes for 9.95 from 4-12. We experienced very little wait time, most times no wait at all. Our 5 teenagers loved it and our 3year old got a card for 9.95 all the video games she could play. Of course you don't get tickets but since she is so young she didn't even realize. We also ate pizza at the pizza place. I would rate it good. Better than Peter Piper. I liked the atmosphere here on a Monday, not too many loud adults like you get at Dave and Busters. Would go back on a weekday for sure!! read more

Fun family entertainment Pizza was out quick. Got reimbursed for bad photo booth and the place was clean!

My work had a team build event here and it was great. Donovan was a great host. I didn't experience the issues other people had here with waiting as it was during the week. I think having to wait it just going to happen since there is only one of these locations in the metro area. I live an hour away and would take my kids here over Dave and busters at least during the week. They need to build one in the north Valley like happy Valley and I-17. It would do great considering all the family communities around it. The waiting is just going to happen based on the demand of a great facilities and service. Only way to fix it is build more. I would even have my kids birthday parties here if they were closer. read more

I just took my staff here for our holiday party and it was awesome! I guess that on Sundays, or at least the day we went our passes were for all day play, so I felt like I got my money's worth for sure. The food was good, our service was great and the laser tag was so much fun! I can't wait to go back. Don't let the rope gravity fool you, if you are afraid of heights it is a bit scary. I couldn't finish it the first time, but faced my fears and finished the second time! Overall I thought it was great! read more

Took my sales team here for a group outing. I was looking for a fun, affordable outing so we could do some bonding and have some laughs out of the office. We had a blast! After an epic game of laser tag we hit the gravity ropes, played some pool and shuffle board, had pizza and ended the night with a very competitive round of bowling. I have done all kinds of team outings, from sporting events to dinners to bar crawls, and this was def my favorite. Highly recommend read more

Crummy birthday party packages. My son has wanted to have his party here for a year so he and his friends could play laser tag and gravity ropes. I called to book a package, however if you choose laser tag and gravity ropes it is a one time only through the 15 minute laser tag room and one time only in gravity ropes. Main event pushes for the kids to bowl for an hour instead of laser tag or gravity ropes to fill up time. My son doesn't want to bowl. I can go to Brunswick to bowl! I decided to allow him 5 friends to meet there and buy wristbands instead of a party package. Apparently, the wristband passes end on September 7th (which I was not told that the wristband special ends sept 7th when I called in July to book a party package), so it would be $8 per child per activity. You can do math, it's ridiculous ($48 for 6 kids every time they want to go through laser tag or gravity ropes!!!!). Who could afford that nonsense? My son is so disappointed. It is his big double digit, 10th birthday. Now I'm scrambling to come up with something else after agreeing to this for the past year. read more

Was surprised to see this place in Arizona, I believe they are new here, but since I am familiar with the ones in San Antonio and around Texas I came expecting the same experience and was not disappointed. It is a bit pricey, but then again arcades of this type always are. Overall, the wife and I had fun on my birthday and I'll be back when I'm in the Phoenix area. read more

If I could give them 5 thumbs down I would. Last night my cousins and I came here to have a fun night, which didn't end fun at all. One of my cousins slipped and fell in the game area and hit his head due to a liquid spill on the ground. He has a previous history of a severe concussion , so we know what he is like when he has a concussion. The manager was very rude and came at him very aggressive. Due to the way my cousin was responding we already knew he had a concussion. He's twin was trying to tell the manager that my cousin was unable to respond because he has a concussion, but the manger walked away and refused to talk to anyone, called the police and lied and said my cousin attacked him. I don't know if because we are black he felt like he could lie to the police, but jokes on him because that's what cameras are for. This was our first and last time coming to this poorly ran business!!! read more

This place is so trash I don't recommend they as might as spit in your face after charging you 39$ an for fucking bowling not even including the shoes you need to bowl. Save your money and go somewhere else. Literally anywhere else. read more

I had my daughters 8th birthday party there Saturday March 16th 2019 and let me tell you this place is super fun for kids and adults! The host I got for her party were amazzzzing!!! All three of them were seriously so friendly and I absolutely loved them and their service. I will definitely have another party here and just come for fun. It is a great environment to be at. Thank you! The whole process was easy and they kept in contact and replied to my emails quickly. Definitely recommend this place we got so many compliments on how awesome this party was and you guys made it happen. Thank you! read more

This place is pretty cool. My wife and I went out with some friends and we had a great time! They have laser tag, bowling, rope jungle gym, arcade, full bar, and pool table lounge. The only downfall is the lines are fairly long for the laser tag and rope jungle gym and you need tickets to reserve a timing...it gets kind of annoying. Place is clean and employees deliver great service! I'll be back if I am in the area on a weekend. read more

Absolutely terrible! We ordered some food off the menu and the food came BURNT. So we send it back and this time the food was undercooked! So we called over a manager. Him solving the situation was asking,"so what do you want?" He was just RUDE. Never going back! read more

The Gilbert location lacked friendly and helpful staff. The food was expensive, small portions, and the taste mediocre. The table was not clean and I had to get my own refills and help bus my own table because of the lack of service. The games are ok, only kept my kids entertained for less than a couple of hours. With so many entertainment options like Jakes Unlimited, Fat Cats, and Top Golf. Main Event in Gilbert is going to have to train their staff in customer service and take a second look at their menu if they want to keep bringing in customers. read more

We went to this location and was treated horrible! We never got a waitress and when we asked the manager about not having a waitress he seemed to have a attitude or be irritated that I was speaking to him about not having a waitress. We had been there over an hour and had to order our food at the bar and bring it to the table, when other table had waitress or servers helping them. Honestly I felt like we were being discriminated against, all the other tables had service but us. This seemed really odd and bothered us. read more

I was excited to try this place. Facility is very nice. We bought New Years Eve package included everything but arcade. We had a good time, however, we bowled for over an hour and not one waitress checked on us. I'm very disappointed in the service. read more

I frequent Main Event often with my friends mainly to Play the Pump it Up machine. It's a fun atmosphere but the games are extremely overpriced and they don't have a ton of games to choose from. They've been opened for a year and a half and not once have they upgraded any of their machines or brought in new games. I actually reached out to them on their web page about upgrading their Pump machine to the newest version (Prime) and I never received a response back. We spend a lot of money at this place and it's sort of a slap in the face when you don't acknowledge your regulars who are there every weekend. read more

My kids loved Main Event...until today. Sunday football and bowling WOULD be awesome. Unfortunately, Main Event can't afford the expense of NFL Sunday Ticket. Had to give up on bowling and take the kids to the sports bar to see their team play. Go Broncos, Boo Main Event! read more
