All the courses were in great shape (despite other people's negative comments) and the gal was blowing leaves as needed. The one course that someone complained about was recently repaired and we had no issues the whole time. It was also rad to play all the different pinball machines and old school arcades! Also the slushie thing at the concession stand was delicious! All in all, a fantastic day! Highly recommend whether you're new or returning! Fun for the family (or a date) at any age! (I should have taken more photos, but this was the course people complained about and it was perfect)

We made the 40 min drive from Santa Rosa to arrive by 10am to find locked doors. An attendant opened the door and said they open at 11am on Sunday. I told them to check their vm, check their website and then check Google because it was miss leading. We waited in front until they opened shop and my son was patient. Hopefully they've worked out that kink. We really wanted to try a new mini golf course. Although it was exciting to play on a new course. Their 18 hole putt-putt was in need of some TLC (see attached pics). There is a key to thier single stall indoor bathroom. So if you have children, lan accordingly and please know that you'll have to go search for the key to use they bathroom. We are undecided if we'd go out of our way to come back.

You are welcome to bring your own food from the outside but just no drinks which is a great way to keep the party going with friends. Though my buddy got kicked out, the bouncers were nice enough to kick him out respectfully - that is for being a bit too drunk. Love you guys for that and please don't ever give the bouncers are hard time. :)

I got used to arcade pricing at places like Disneyland, Great Wolf Lodge or other destination location arcades. The prices per game here make your money go a long way. Staff is always friendly and helpful. The variety of games is nice for kids and the claw games and prizes are enticing. Its not really an arcade for avid gamers, but it is awesome for families. I visited recently and was informed that they were closing. Im super bummed that they are closing. Hopefully its not permanent.

Date of visit: October 10, 2024…read more Selection: We only played games that allowed us to win direct prizes, such as claw machines. Note: They do offer regular ticket and non-ticket type games as well. We just didn't invest in them during this trip. Experience: My husband and I were really surprised about stumbling into this location while driving past the different stores available at the outlet. We had to stop by to not only check if there were claw machines, but if the prizes were good enough to invest in and we were surprised they were! We did the $100 deal that allowed us to get more bonus credit and a mystery prize, which ended up being an adorable Halloween Bulbasaur that had a pumpkin instead of his typical bulb on his back. My husband was having better luck then me in the machines, but I had fun regardless. What was cool about the claw machines was if you got 5 plushies from the same machine, you would be able to win the supreme size plush on top of the machine and no joke they were humongous! We didn't have too much luck in getting at least 5 plushies from one machine, but we did walk away with a handful of plushies, a small figure from a shooting game, and a bunch of cute little keychains. Definitely would want to try our luck in getting one of the supreme size plushies, but gotta make room at our apartment before than lolz

Been here twice, once for a birthday and once as a family. We've only done the arcade and go karts…read moreand they're both super fun! One gripe I have is that I wish the workers were a bit more attentive. We went on Monday and there wasn't anyone at the front desk for maybe 10minutes. They didn't have us watch the safety/instructional video which normally plays on a loop at the front of the pit gate. We had two double karts because our kids are young and we were put in a race with multiple other adults. The employees in the pit were good, one was a young lady who seemed new and a young man who obviously had much more experience. I'm on the shorter side and he recognized I needed the pedals adjusted and a booster seat. He also rechecked all our belts because the girl didn't put them on tight enough. So during our race we had to go slowly for the first lap, but then it was on! Unfortunately, I had to go slow because my daughter is small and apprehensive about the whole experience. I'm sure we were a hindrance for the faster racers, but most were very respectful and drove around us. One person in particular (an older black man who uses the name "007 Speed") hit me into the barrier 3 times and hit my husband and son's kart at least twice. He hit us with such force both of my kids have been complaining of neck pain. I told the experienced male employee but no consequences for Mr. 007 Speed even though each time he hit us they overhead announced, "No hitting other drivers or barriers. Next time you will be out of the race." When the race was done Mr. 007 Speed never acknowledged what he did or apologized. As we were leaving we saw him complaining at the front desk. So overall, I really like this place. It's geared for children and families, but definitely for anyone who wants to have fun. It would be ideal if they grouped drivers separately like they do for junior racers. Group adult racers with ones who have children/want a chill experience and a group for retirees trying to relive their glory days

It has quickly become one of our favorite spots for a…read morerare date night because it stays open late, which works well for us since I am mostly bedridden and wheelchair-bound due to Stage 3 full-body CRPS and other medical pain conditions. I don't get out often, usually only for appointments once or twice a month and about once a month (sometimes every other month) for a date...so when I do, it's something very special that I have to carefully plan for, and I need significant time to recover afterward. Round1 has so many fun options all in one place. There's bowling, a huge arcade with both classic and modern games, racing games, basketball hoops, rhythm and dance games, and interactive skill games. They also have karaoke rooms, ping pong, and billiards/pool tables. It's really nice because there is something for everyone and every energy level...whether you want something active, competitive, or just casual and fun. We enjoy pool, basketball hoops, racing, several other sit down games like the Top Gun game. We have yet to order snacks as we usually get there too late, but will next time. We love Karoke so we may do a little Karoke The staff has always been kind, and the customer service is consistently good. We also really appreciate the security at the front it, it makes the environment feel safe and welcoming. We haven't tried bowling at this specific location yet, but we have at another Round1 and look forward to doing it here as well. One of our favorite things is just walking around and trying different games together...it honestly feels like stepping into a playful, fun space where you can forget stress for a while. My husband is incredibly supportive and often carries me so I don't have to use my wheelchair inside, which makes it easier for us to enjoy the experience together. Even though I'm 38 and he's 42, it truly feels like being kids again, laughing, playing games, and just enjoying each other's company. We're really grateful to have found a place like this where we can still make joyful memories together despite health challenges.

I was contemplating whether or not to just play something. Then, when I was playing the Star Wars coin pusher, thank goodness, I was finished because the card wouldn't come out onto the platform. I was like forget it. Likewise, it's quite discouraging and quite true (as stated throughout Reddit) that they don't refresh or change out their plushies/prizes like other locations. Although, I did see them starting to clear out some machines today. Why do I come here, you ask? It's literally, to me, one of the largest locations in NorCal (sadly). So many ufos, cranes, coin pushers, etc! An arcade extravaganza! IF YOU ARE DISABLED DO NOT COME HERE DUE TO MALFUNCTIONING ELEVATORS! (March 2026)

But the remaining review is strictly going to be the food service and staff. They are the absolute worse! They need to hire more servers! Not bartenders! We got seated, and the host said somebody will be with us shortly. After sitting for well over 30 minutes, nobody checked In with us! I started to wave my hand, and get attention but everyone kept turning a blind eye. It's absolutely absurd that they make us wait and wait and wait, and after about 1hour I just sat up and left. The service is an absolutely the worse! Keep in mind this was a Thursday around 7-8pm! Which is prime time! Many of the arcade machines are solid, but require some maintenance.

HORRIBLE SERVICE - Avoid unless you have time to waste and money to throw away…read more I don't usually write reviews, but last night's experience was so unbelievably bad that I felt compelled to warn others. We arrived at 5:45 PM, and from the moment we walked in, everything went downhill: 1) Ignored at the host stand We waited over 10 minutes just to be seated. We stood right at the host stand while multiple staff members walked past us, made eye contact, and still didn't acknowledge us or offer to help. 2) Dirty table upon seating When we were finally seated, the table hadn't been cleaned. We had to wait another 5-10 minutes while they tried to find someone to wipe it down. 3) Drink taken without asking At one point, our server took my half-full alcoholic drink without asking if I was finished. That's basic restaurant etiquette. I tried to stop them, but between the loud music and my limited mobility right now, I couldn't get their attention in time. That was my only drink of the night--just gone, along with my money. 4) Completely unacceptable food delays - OVER AN HOUR!!!!!!!!! We were a party of 7. Five of us ordered entrées, and two ordered fries. It took an entire HOUR for the first dish to come out--and it was just one entrée. My friend finished his entire meal before anyone else got food. Eventually, most of the food came out... except mine. I was told it had been given to another table and had to be remade. So everyone else is eating while I'm still waiting. By the time I finally got my meal, we realized we were still missing a simple side of fries. No one checked on us. We had to flag someone down--then waited another 30 minutes for fries. Unbelievable. Lastly, as if the experience couldn't get worse, on my way out, two employees were running around yelling and laughing. They crossed into my path twice and blew vape smoke in my face. Yes, I acknowledge they could be off or on break, but their behavior showed a total lack of professionalism and respect for customers. At that point, it was clear that the issues weren't just about service quality -- they reflected a deeper problem with staff conduct and overall management standards.

This was a fun find for my kids and I. Typically I steer away from claw machine games because let's…read moreface it, you lose more than you win. With the incentive of receiving 2 plushies with a minimum game purchase amount, it alleviated the anxiety of walking away with nothing to show for my kids. The space was well lit and clean. We were the only patrons during the last hour of day. Heads up- once the claw retracts and moves back towards the prize drop zone, it shakes A LOT and we end up losing the plush animal any way. Occasionally we managed to get 2 or 3 wins. As I mentioned earlier, you're guaranteed two plushies when you purchase a minimum game card amount, so that made the losses more manageable. Overall, it was a fun experience and I'd take my kiddos there again. The gentleman that helped us was friendly and reassured us about the two guaranteed plushies to put us at ease so we can try to enjoy our time.

Spent $25 and go at least 15 plays which we split up between three machines. We were able to hit on two of them and apparently we were guaranteed three items so we got the third one anyways.
