I've been 2 times and have been able to experience Happy Hour, Brunch and Bowling; Happy Hour: I didn't bowl this time around but watch as my friends did. The service was slow, hard to get someone to refill or reorder. Great Happy Hour Menu Brunch: Enjoyed, however the waiter stated he was sick and we were concerned as he was breathing over us and our drinks, but come to find out he was hungover. Better for us. The food was someone what cold...sausage cold not good. The heat lamps really don't heat much. Waffles were great. Again service was ok, but at some point our plates were stacked up on the table. Bowl: Bowled right after brunch...not an easy task. Again, the service was not good in that area. We ended up with 3 different servers....the manager did come over and apologize and let us bowl another round...however that was not told to the host, who then tried to seat other at our lane and exclaimed " You all were supposed to be gone by now". Lady, we were still waiting for whichever server was going to bring the check so we could leave. Overall this is a fun social place. If the service could be better it would definitely be a 4 or 5 star establishment read more

I love coming here for Sunday brunch! The selection for the buffet is amazing and everything is delicious so the value for the price is definitely there. I'd definitely recommend everyone to go to this you won't be disappointed! read more

Hawkins was the best server ever!! So attentive, really made the experience wonderful. Loved everything about pinstripes!! Was a great place to host my 25th birthday party/brunch. Food, venue, & service 10/10 read more

Hawkins is the man, best server ever! Definitely coming back. Unbeatable brunch deal. Hawkins made us feel welcome and delivered unmatched service. He even brought out a birthday surprise for one of our friends. Great spot and a great brunch deal. I'll be coming back for sure read more

The foods is pretty good, great place to hang with friends.

Had our 6 year old's birthday here on Sunday and it was a great success. The kids had a blast and the parents never had to go into overdrive! The food was good and the service excellent thanks to Dimitri and Kendra who went over and above to make sure that we all had the best time. We did. Thank you guys! We really appreciated your hard work. Definitely a regular destination for us now. read more

My experience here has been left with only one word, PHENOMENAL!! Joe was our server and he was absolutely stellar. He was attentive and very helpful with all of our questions. The ambiance was incredible, the outdoor seating is a must when you are there. But the inside was really nicely done as well. It was an enormous space inside as well. We had the happy hour calamari and hummus duo. The calamari was fantastic. It was crunchy and fresh. The portion for $8 was absolutely perfect The hummus duo had such great flavor and options that came with it made it such a great value!!! She had the angel hair and I had the bolognese. This pasta was incredible. Nothing out of a box or bag from this kitchen. Major shout out to those guys working back there. This is a must for any one in the Georgetown/DC area!! read more

Everything was terific and top notch. From start to finish we enjoyed delicious food, attentive service and a clean and lovely atmosphere that will ensure we will visit again and again. read more

Pinstripes - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

We were looking for a place to eat in Georgetown without a wait - a retailer close by recommended Pinstripes and we were pleasantly surprised with their restaurant area. The food was great - we had the gnocchi and one of the flat bread pizzas. One thing that could have used improvement was the service - the restaurant area was half full and the staff was not very attentive. We would definitely go again! I would love to try out their bowling and bocce ball. read more

We've been shocked by how good the food is here ! We've done takeout a few times and everything has been really solid. The brussel sprouts and gnocchi were standouts, but really no weak links. Curbside is easy- we've been able to find a quick place to pull over every time. read more

I have had the worst experience ever at Georgetown pinstripes. The server didn't let us know that the main menu was about to close, so when we started to order more food she stated oh the full menu been closed 30 minutes ago! How are we supposed to know that if you didn't pre warn us so we can order. The response was so rude, then we requested for the manager he came fiery and ready to battle José Aguilera did nothing to accommodate our party, and this was our holiday party! He didn't even offer a discount, or gift card for the next visit he was so concerned on getting the last word and being combative. We had a party of 18 four bowling lanes and spent over 4,000 dollars that night and he couldn't accommodate a salmon Ceasar salad or show compassion for his servers behavior. I will never return there and I recommend no one go to this location horrible service read more

Food was good. This is definitely a party destination, not a bowling alley. If you have any experience with an AMF or Bowl America, leave your expectations at the door. Zero oil and food/liquid all over the floor. Sorry to anyone who throws a hook... Wait staff and bartender were awesome. read more

Came here for my 27th birthday party and had the BEST experience. In DC it's hard to find places that can accommodate large groups for dinner, but Pinstripes has a large space and everyone was very accommodating to us. They even put balloons out on the table before we walked in. All my friends were pleased with the food, there were a lot of options so almost everyone got something different and it all looked good. I got the chopped salad, which I definitely recommend. We allowed about an hour and a half for dinner then went over to the bowling alleys. It worked out perfectly. Afterwards we walked over to some of the bars in the area. Great location so there was lots to chose from. All in all, if you're looking for something different to do with a large group this is an awesome choice. read more

We had a very good lunch here. wasnt that crowded. neat place, has full food menu, and drinks. Has a bowling alley. Also had other fun things. We each got a yummy gelato for dessert. read more

So they have a fixed brunch menu. $36 for adults, $14 for kids. Absurd. Plus this isn't posted anywhere. Parking was $12 just to park and find these prices out. They don't validate. read more

We made a reservation here for bowling with 6 people. The day started out great but unfortunately we left wanting more. We arrived at the lane and were told we had an hour from our start time to complete our game. Unfortunately the countdown to the end of the time begins at 15 mins and shows up on the screen. At 9 mins left our lane shut down and we were unable to continue to bowl. We called over a waiter and explained our lane closed down early. We were told that they would contact the manager to resolve the situation. We waited 7 mins for our lane to reboot. At the time we had ONE MORE ROUND UNTIL THE END OF OUR GAME. Once the game rebooted there were 2mins left on the timer. We called the server back to ask for more time to make up for the time lost. The server returned to report that the manger would not be returning the time lost and we needed to leave bc our hour was up. Importantly, there were several lanes around us that were empty. It was just an unfortunate end to what could have been a great experience. We never saw a manager once. Our server had to be the one to break the news which also is not fair. Clearly this place does not care about their customers and wants to get people in and out. Will go to Lucky Strike next time. read more

Service by my waitress was great. The sad part about my visit was that they took one of my friend's meal she did not want to another table after three staff members and two patrons were hovering over it. Then they took my food and put it in someone else's Bag who had sea food and I am allergic to sea food. The manager was not helpful or considerate. Please do not go here to ever eat food. Worst place I have ever ate at. read more

Bowling: wildly expensive for an ally more run down than any ally I've ever seen. And yet, by far, the most expensive. Lanes are warped and the balls and very old. Save your $$$ and just go to a normal ally. Food: the food is the only reason why this place deserves a single star. S'mores dessert was really good. Service: actually the worst service I've ever received. We had to leave the ally part of the facility, and walk all the way across the restaurant to get drinks from the bar ourselves. The server only came to our ally twice and got our orders wrong each time (after multiple clarifying questions). Seemed like he was outside smoking pot instead of waiting the tables. He dropped off our checks without asking if we were done, and we still had an hour of paid bowling left. read more

Better than expected! I'll start with the bad though. The pizza here is a HARD no!!! Don't even think about it. Seriously, Papa Johns is better. However the chicken sandwich is pretty solid, the bolognese is excellent, even the spaghetti and meatballs is great! Chopped salad is great and huge! And the sorbet that they put in the waffle cup, excellent as they offer different flavors all the time. Seriously just away from the pizza and you really can't go wrong. read more

The food was excellent service was great the bowling side the children had so much fun we came for a birthday celebration we had a ball we had endless mimosas restaurants are very clean it was awesome we will be back read more

With a name like Pinstripes, you know that it's going to be a great eat. They use the finest grabbing utensils for grabbing the crisp and green lettuce from the buffet line. Nothing better than seeing a bunch of finely dressed employees. One even had a man bun! Whoever they buy their sugar off of must be making a hefty living, because their lemonade is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. The pizza just kept on piling in like a bunch of Tesla Model 3 buyers walking into the dealership to finally pick up their car after they made their $1,000 deposit one year prior. Don't go here if you don't eat very much. read more

Food was yummy and our server Hawkins was attentive and VERY accommodating. Very friendly and understanding. His service alone will make me come back..... read more

Amazing place: always excellent service and great food. Particularly want to thank manager Chase for his exceptional hospitality and welcoming service. He finds personal approach to each client. Pinstripes is lucky to have such a great manager who brings professionalism and high standards to this place. read more

Reservations needed way in advance for bowling! Make sure when you make the reservations, that you are making it for which game you want to play, and not just a table in the dining room. This is a fun place to host a party! read more

Had THE best experience here. To be honest, bottomless mimosas and brunch buffet mean the bar is set pretty low for service. BUT - Rory exceeded our expectations by 1000%. Yes, that is one thousand. He was checking on us every few minutes. We truly enter saw the bottom of our glasses! And he was just incredibly attentive and friendly, and got to know us while sharing a bit about himself as well. Incredible!! Also, food was amazing. Definitely get the waffles!! read more

This (lengthy) review is rated one star based off of the service we recieved. I hosted a birthday party here a few weekends ago on a Saturday night. Paid the $300+ rental fee to reserve two lanes for a group of 14 to bowl with a package that offered unlimited flatbreads and pizza. Even paid an extra fee per person to add an extra hour of bowling for our party insted of the standard 2 that cane with the package. Originally the staff seemed friendly enough but once the first soggy order of pizza ended it became a headache. The food was unlimited but there was a long wait for each one even after placing the next request before the current pizza was all done! As our party arrived we attempted to get shoes and order drinks and were constantly told by other servers to just wait for our server to return and then ask her. (This was stated even when I walked to the front desk to ask for shoes right where they are stored. At that time another server offered to help find shoes but still suggested I go back to my lane and wait.) Finally, we got shoes for all guest and the pizza & flatbreads were hot and ontime and began to come in such rapid succession there was an overload. Some of the party ordered chilled shots. Once they arrived they were severly watered down. We brought this to our waiters attention. She inturn told the manager. He spoke to our party and apologized but explained that "the shots get watered down when shaken with ice. " He offered to get more shots and we asked for them to be straight up (not chilled this time). He returned with the same amount of originally requested drinks. At the end of the night the manager (Adam) returned with the check. I mentioned to him that we were charged for the watery drinks which he replaced. Again, he apologized stating he was unclear, he never intended to comp the drinks he just brought us more. In all of my 30+ years I've never heard of such a statement ESPECIALLY from management. I explained to him that we all know the difference between watered down drinks and chilled drinks w/ ice. He remained adamant that thats what happened and they would not comp the shots. I then stated how I brought 14 friends to this establishment after all positive visits before and have paid over $1000 just tonight and he wanted to argue me down over 4 watery shots??? I thought that was ridiculous. And he still said no! Pinstripes would NOT cover or replace those drinks. I paid and left. The very next day I wrote an email about the unsatisfactory service issue to Molly the one we spoke to numerous times to confirm the reservation. Til this day no one has responded. Maybe had this been a children's party or a simple outting for 4ppl it would have turned out great. But for this type of interaction with management AND the ridiculous upcharge & fees DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! It's just bowling in Georgetown. read more

Hi, if you are ever in the Georgetown D.C area I highly recommend you NOT to go to the Pinstripes restaurant. Their food is horrible, awful, nasty and has no taste. Their service is pathetic!!! The waiters have no clue on how to take an order and the managers have no customer service skills whatsoever. read more

A staff outing gone, GREAT! We all stunk at bowling but that's on us. The experience, service and care...that's on Pinstripes and they shined! Great food, prompt service (Thank you, Kaitlyn!) resulting in a definite come back...to this location, and to make up for our bowling scores. 5 stars! read more

Food was outstanding. Service was impeccable! I will come here again for sure. What a great environment! Our server we overly generous, and very pleasant. We loved our experience at Pinstripes! read more

Had a wonderful time at my sister's wedding yesterday. Food was excellent and staff was attentive and courteous. Joelle and Aaron were especially wonderful! Thanks for everything!! read more

The most A-MAZ-ING Bowling Alley I have ever visited. My birthday party, Brunch/Bowl, needed to be at a location that I decided to use as a go between for my Maryland and Virginia family/friends. Excellent choice. The staff was super amazing. The BRUNCH, to die for! I'm an event manager/hospitality guru and know good service when I see it. They went over beyond measure in not just my entire event, also the buffet as well. A carving station with prime rib, a waffle station, an omelet station and on top of all that, they had Chicken Marsala! From there, my family went into a SMOKE-FREE, CLEAN, bowling alley, with comfortable seating for everyone, then gave us complimentary socks! So wonderful to have such a experience on such a special occasion! Parking all day is just $22 bucks! Locking this location in, as the go to place to enjoy myself, even if there is no party, just PLUS ONE! read more

The bottomless were literally bottomless. Glasses were never even half empty. Melbin was the best! Love the ambiance.

Our favorite neighborhood spot! great happy hour, friendly staff and the food is quite good! the chicken avocado flat bread is a winner as are some of their pasta dishes and the salmon is cooked perfectly. It's a great place to hang out with your friends! read more

Terrible service for a Georgetown restaurant we waited 30 minutes for him to refill our mimosas during a bottomless mimosas deal I will not be coming back and management was lying about what they can do to help our situation food was good, but service was terrible especially for people in Georgetown this is not a one star city. DO NOT COME IF YOU WANT GOOD SERVICE. they brought one pitcher of mimosas for 16 people read more

Enjoyed bowling there, quality seating and good service. Immediately when we got there we were served with waters and a menu, at the bowling alley, which was very nice. I do have to say we experienced quite a few malfunctions with our lane, and the staff was kind enough to add more minutes to our time, which demonstrated their quality service. The food is great there also. There price isn't the cheapest, but would go there again for sure. read more

Pinstripes is the B E S T place to have a bottomless brunch. With the endless food, Bloody Mary bar, and chocolate fountain this is the PERFECT place to have a birthday brunch or spend a Sunday. The best part of our experience was Hawkins the waiter. He is the real definition of bottomless mimosas. He's the realest GOAT. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend!!!! read more

The food was amazing and fresh! I barely ever finish all of my food when I go out, but I finished everything. The customer service was amazing as well, I definitely enjoyed the food and my time here. I'll be back! :) read more

Now, I wasn't sure what to expect from a bowling alley's brunch but it was a very pleasant surprise! Buffets can go very right or very wrong -- this one was great! I mean, they have a chocolate fountain!?! Not to start with dessert or anything, but chocolate dipped strawberries, rice krispie treats, and pretzels are a satisfying way to end any meal :) This buffet hit the spot for our whole table -- it had breakfast and lunch options and they were all actually pretty good. Even the kids buffet was a hit with the adults - chicken tenders, fries, and mac and cheese, yes please! Of notable deliciousness would be the shrimp, goat cheese pasta, meatballs, and omelet station. You could opt for a bottomless option (which of course we did) for just an additional $6 more -- and man, they do an EXCELLENT job of keeping your glasses filled to the brim. Now, I know it may not be that hard to clear plates and manage serving tables when the only option is a buffet but we did have an exceptional experience because of how our meal ended. The fact that our waiter managed to figure out splitting the check individually for around 20 people and he did it FAST was impressive! Kudos to the wait staff for this feat! read more

The place looks nice. Friendly atmosphere. I would consider bringing a group for a special occasion. My bartender Billy offered excellent suggestions with the food and drinks. I had the calamari because I wasn't looking for a full dinner and it was tasty and just the right portion. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was the fact that your hours of operation displayed online say until 1:00 AM on a Saturday night and yet at 12:07 someone, whom did not appear to be the bartender or manager came around yelling "last call" which ended my evening there abruptly. read more

This was the BEST customer service I've experienced in quite a long time. Paul who was a manager not only seated us but continued to check on us throughout the night. Jennifer was our waitress and she was incredible as well. The food was delicious and perfect portion size. We all ordered different things and all came out delicious. Will come back for the food and for the service! read more
