So under this uncertainty we all are in and food businesses trying to help provide curbside service, Pinstack demonstrates one act of kindness and a show of survival for their business. I found out that Pinstack was providing curbside food orders, They do have a limited menu, but one to please the taste buds!! I ordered a hamburger and wings to take for my lunch tomorrow and I was pleased with my order and the hamburger was delicious and so were the wings, I had to try a couple!! Compliments to the chef and the curbside attendees!! If you can,go and order and support your local businesses!! Pinstack is there and ready for your food to go!! read more

Bartender was racist and rude for no reason wouldn't serve us drinks or food because we was " loud " how else do you go bowling??

I booked a party for my son online but when I arrived there was no reservation. I was mortified when I realized that although I inquired about a Saturday birthday reservation, I actually booked for a Sunday. But Vee, the party manager came in and saved the day. She found a space for us and managed to fit our party into the bowling schedule, and our food ordered. And she did it all with an attitude of graciousness. I can't say enough about how grateful I was that even though the error was mine, the entire staff was accommodating and extremely pleasant. This is a 5 star establishment with a 5 star staff read more

Went on a Thursday afternoon for the first time, I guess it's the best time to go if you are able to, plenty of open lanes and not busy at all. I like that they have plexiglass separating some of the lanes but don't like that the person using the lane next to you is literally right in front you, there is no separation at all, even without covid you still need a bit more privacy. However, we picked a lane that had no others using adjacent lanes so it was good. We bowled for an hour which at $10 is very good, plus shoe fees for 2 adults and 1 kid. Been to other bowling places and it could be better but it was OK for what you pay and my son was having fun. He wanted to try the stacked milkshakes so he ordered the death by chocolate, it is quite big, enough for 3. The shake itself was good, my son also liked it but the brownies that came with it were rock hard, we put them aside, it could have been better if they used soft fudgy brownies. We also ordered fries since we had had lunch earlier just wanted a snack, they were OK. The waiter was polite and quick to respond, maybe because there were only about 3 other groups but I can see being a problem during busy hours. We also got on the bumper cars and tried some of the arcade games. My advise is to go when it's not busy if you are able to, morning in the weekends or anytime before 4:00 on weekdays. read more

Do not take your eyes off your things for even one second here. My son set his Nike jacket down on a chair, turned around to call a friend over, turned back around and it was gone. Everyone looked everywhere and asked every employee right away. Just don't bring anything valuable that you can't keep literally next to your body. Rounding out my review with: the food and prizes are pretty "meh." It's too bad, this could be a nice place. read more

Overpriced garbage. Terrible drunks. And every time we come here, the service is terrible. We reserved a table for a birthday for 6:30pm. We have been waiting for half an hour, most of the restaurant is empty, and we still don't have our table. read more

Great place to hang out with the family! We went half-price game night and had a blast in the game room as well as enjoyed a game of bowling. The staff was accommodating, the lanes were well maintained, and the venue was well-kept. It also had a great looking menu although we didn't get a chance to eat... would like to see a couple more lightweight ball options in the bowling area for the younger crowd but other than that- kudos! We loved it! read more

.... WOW! This place looks awesome. It's got video games, rock climbing, bumper cars, bowling and .... 2 bars!!! Nice selection of wine and beer and a decent menu. Great for family or just for adults. Staff is friendly so just stop by and be surprised like us. Again... WOW! read more

High price and little bang for the buck. Left the kiddos disappointed and asking to go to Incredible pizza or Dave and Busters. Wait staff unimpressive and unfriendly. Won't be back. read more

Terrible bar service guy serving us was rude and professional his name was cole we came to grave a drink and he asked what we needed when we proceeded to ask for it he said we closed after that one of my friends told him if he had a problem whit his job to look for another one he then told us y'all graving free drinks when he told him I'll slap the f out of u he went in-front of the counter and sat on it and said slap me the bar tender said that. Another thing was the second waiter I was waiting to get attended when I tried to get ther attention witch was right beside me she ignore me and went right past me when I said mam 5 times just unprofessional and rude read more

Best experience ever ray and Tiffany were incredible! Wouldn't go to any other fun center

Chose this place for a day out with my granddaughter and it was definitely a great choice. We all had a blast. The attractions are top notch, and the atmosphere keeps you entertained just by being there. Staff is awesome, we were always checked on and happily helped with any questions. Shoutout to the Manager Mr. Antonio for his professionalism and to our server Anna for her friendly service. Food is delicious and portions are huge not to mention the shakes which are humongous. We will definitely be coming back and recommend Pinstack at Austin to all our friends for a good time! #pinstackaustin #pinstackbowlandbite #familyfun read more

The employees there are very rude and they literally are just money hungry! Also it's a very over priced bowling alley with expensive arcade games! And they delete the bad comments. read more

So glad Pinstack is open on the inside again. The food is delicious and the unique bowling game options are fun for all ages. The staff is excellent and very caring. All things considered with the virus going on I can tell they are taking all necessary precautions to make each patron's visit clean without sacrificing any of the fun. read more

Another super cool entertainment place for the whole family. The staff here was so friendly and helpful. Compared to other entertainment centers Pinstack has leverage over the others as they have bumper cars, rock climbing, a ropes course and a full dine in restaurant. I ordered a margarita and they definitely was not stingy with the tequila. Due to COVID-19 they are on a limited menu. I will be returning. read more

If you're going with no plans it works out great however if you're dropping some heavy money and pay for a party package NOT WORTH IT AT ALL!! They have zero options on the sequence of events for your party, they give you the order that works best for them. They give only 45 mins for the "party room" you set up your own decorations however you can't set them up ahead of time and are only let it "on the dot" of your schedule time so essentially you don't have the 45 mins. Everything about the party package is not ideal for a kids birthday party. You are all better off having everyone meet you there and just have fun. They lose money without the flexibility on the packages, parents would stay longer, order more, and overall spend more time and money there; maybe they'll smarten up! The game room is fun though and the managers have been friendly. read more

Went with a group of friends Saturday night had a blast with the games in the back but, horrible service the manager assisted us by fixing our complaints and messed up food more then our actual waiter. Our waiter wasn't attentive, our drinks were wrong, and so was two of our checks. Before paying someone in my group found a long black hair on our fried pickles. As the waiter took our cards we showed him with his response being " so you're going to go ahead and blame that on us" took the hair off the food and dropped it on the ground. Although he did take the food off the check the way he spoke to us was very unprofessional and rude. read more

Came in with a group and had a great time playing games and then chose to eat here. Holy cow! Appetizers where great! Best fried pickles ever! I had the smokehouse burger and thought it was amazing! My friend had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and said it was really good too! Great place for family fun and amazing food! read more

The bowling alley lanes are super warped and not worth the price. The arcade is fun though

This was my first time coming here and we will definitely be back! Jordan was gem and very patient with us shes such an asset to the team!

Awesome spot, reasonably priced and COVID comfortable. Better than the competition, which to be fair could be driven by the new factors but it was nice change in venue for that type of affair. Will be back! read more

If you're a serious Bowler or expect any kind of service keep driving. We went on a Wednesday night around 9pm. We bought 1 hour of bowling we had to push the service button 3 different times each time someone would tell us a waitress would be right over. We had to complain to a manager, we eventually ordered a drink 45 minutes later. Let's talk bowling, Sticky approaches, no oil on the lanes when I asked about the last time they were oiled. I was told last week, I think. These lanes were so bad people were bowling with the bumpers up. I soon found out why anything other than a plastic ball is going curve right into the gutter. I've been to many bowling alleys but this was the worst I've ever seen. We had to find a manager just to pay for our drinks, the kids working there have no idea what they are doing. Just a very poorly managed place, the only good thing I can say it was still pretty clean looking if that's all you want from a night out then it's for you. read more

The $12 steak they have on Fridays is great! Makes a great lunch, and if you have the time you can play some games after. Recommended.

We love this place. We rented out the VIP bowling lanes for two hours and it was completely worth it. The music, food, and drinks were on point too. Definitely going to come back. read more

This place has a super fun arcade with all the new games. We had an adult night and got VIP bowling and it was so much fun! Service and food was great. We can't wait to bring our kid in next time! read more

it took 30 minutes for our food to get here and it wasn't even good bro like shit was mad expensive too like wtf also our server took forever she kept like dropping glasses like she was probably just doing her best but the entire experience was disappointing read more

Great fun place to have a kids birthday. Not overly priced and food was good. The hostess that ran our bday for my son was great. Definitely coming back read more

Been here twice and the people at the bowling counter where you sign in are ALWAYS so rude. And the wait is ridiculous.. not worth it to me.

I came here for a trivia night with friends. The service and food were not great. The waitress shared she was really busy and seemed very put out by having me order food and a drink. My food came much faster than my drink. I ordered the chicken street tacos and with chips and salsa. The tacos were terrible and literally only had chicken and clumps of cheese. There was no sauce or any other ingredients and the chicken was super dry. The chips and salsa were also underwhelming. The waitress forgot about my drink and I had to ask for it again. We stayed and played some games in the arcade which was fun, but I wouldn't go to eat or drink again. read more

I visited this location for the first time on March 2, 2021. As I was leaving, the big metal box that is on top of the entrance doors (the thing that swings the door) broke & the metal bar piece came down & hit me full speed in the face. I temporarily lost my vision & honestly thought someone was ambushing/attacking me because it was so sudden. The manager & hostess were great & got me ice & advised me to go to the hospital to make sure my eye was ok. The corporate office was terrible, sent me a letter from a lawyer saying they weren't responsible & to contact the people that repair their doors. I am actually studying business law & it IS their responsibility when it happens on their property & they are hiring subcontractors, at that time I was not in school & did not know this so I told them to pay my small medical bill just to be done with the awful man. This man literally said on the phone, "So, I hear we had a little incident" really condescending & laughed while having a "well what do you want me to do about it?" attitude then had the gall to offer me an all expense paid experience if I came back, lmao like I ever would. My eye has a deep scar & still hurts in that area to this day & I never got an X-ray because I didn't want to pay for it if they wouldn't pay my medical bills so who knows how bad the damage actually is. Just disgusting all around. Please don't take your children here, if they get hurt they will not care. read more

For the price of things to eat, and do I would expect this place to have more class. For starters the arcade games are more expensive than Austin Park, Spare Time, and Main Event. For the standard price of most drinks I can get close to a picture of beer elsewhere. The bowling prices are pretty close to the highest in the Austin area. Instead of the system being able to tell you that your time is up, someone yells for you like the cops are coming. We were gyro bowl here despite that but when we got our drinks all of that changed. I asked for a beer with none of that dressing stuff and I get a beer with dressing. We all got our drinks but never got the water we asked for. I ordered a chip and salsa and had to order it twice. Then my sister-in-law ordered a Sunday style drink and it was missing the the brownie. Douglas decides it's a great idea to grab it from with his bare hand wherever he got it and puts in her drink like we were bothering him. First off, I don't care how many times you wash your hands, if you do something like that you don't have respect for me as a customer or cares to give about me as a customer. Then he tells her he'd keep it when she tells him why she doesn't want it, of course with an attitude. We were going to buying drinks, bowl for a few hours, play some games. After all of that, we paid for our drinks and left. It will be a long time before I return. read more

We did the vip bowling option, waste of money honestly because you still have to share a space with people. Service was impossible from waitstaff and at the bar. I definitely will not be going here again. read more

Fun time. Great band! Pantera was awsome!

It is a great spot!!! pricing for games is a little above average but we do have fun when we visit! i would suggest maybe a couple more games for the little ones (yeah i know its not chuck e cheese) i am not asking for a million of them but maybe just a couple more options read more

Found this gem after having a bad experience at Top Golf. little did I know this place was hidden not to far away. From the moment We entered Pinstack service was on point. Plenty of things to do bowling, laser tag, arcade, rock climbing, rope course etc. Kids had a good time and our server Storm was on point. Even met the manager Myles which was just as friendly and made sure we were all having a good time. Thank you all for turning our family outing into a memorable experience we will definitely be back. read more

I'm sad I am having to even write this review because I honestly have enjoyed myself every time that I have been. I like this place so much that I tried to make a reservation for my boyfriend's birthday. I saw on the website that reservations had to be made online Friday through Sunday. I attempted to make the reservation and it the website would not allow me. The following day I called to make the reservations and was told by an employee that I needed to come in and make the reservation if it would be 10 people or more. Today I drove 30 minutes to come in a make a reservation I have been trying to make since last week. When I arrived I was greeted by a nice young lady at the front desk, I explained to her that I spoke to someone earlier in the week and they told me to come in to make the reservation. She brought in a manager who spoke to me in a very dismissive tone and said that I needed to make the reservation online. As I am trying to ask another question she proceeded to begin talking to customers who came in after me. I have never been treated in a such a dismissive and rude manner. I wouldn't waste my time trying to make a reservation with them. read more

Brought out of town family to see some fun things to do here in ATX. Came to Pinstacks for some family fun. Bowling was fun but the service was below expectations if any, we did not get any service. I went to the bar to order because a server never went to my lane. Instead of eating here we are going to better places the will offer great hospitality. This place was a choice for a work event but I'll suggest a better establishment with great service and hospitality. read more

So... humoring a friend on her birthday, I'm bowling abysmally per usual and I am so lucky to find my respite at the bar in the form of Kado - she does her job like she owns some stock in the place. I love it when people are nice to me, I'm one of those ditzy customers that requires a lil extra coddling. I know it's annoying. And so I notice when people make me feel cool. read more

Had an awesome time here with my friends and family! We had Vincent helping us out and he was phenomenal! Very kind and extremely professional! read more

Great place, lots of activities to chose from & perfect to escape the summer heat with the whole family!
