Since moving to the area, I have visited Stars and Strikes four times, and each experience has been…read moreenjoyable. As someone who loves entertainment-packed venues, this place has quickly become one of my go-to spots for a fun night out. There are a few drawbacks, but overall, it offers a great experience for families, kids, and adults alike. One of my favorite features is the Spark VIP bowling lane, which adds a unique twist to traditional bowling. The cool virtual effects you can select make the experience more immersive and visually appealing. If you're looking for something beyond a standard bowling game, I highly recommend opting for this lane--it's worth it! One of the biggest highlights of Stars and Strikes is the sheer variety of entertainment options in one location. Aside from bowling, you can enjoy arcade games, play pool, watch TV, and just relax. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend hours without getting bored. The ambiance is lively and loud, which is expected in a setting like this, and they always play great music that adds to the fun atmosphere. However, I do have a couple of minor complaints. The drinks are expensive, which is a little disappointing given the casual, arcade-like setting. It would be great if they had better drink specials to make it more affordable. Additionally, the service can be a little slow, especially during peak hours. That said, I've noticed they are often extremely busy, so I now try to visit later in the evening when things are slightly less hectic. As for the food, I haven't personally tried it yet, but from what I've seen, it appears to be standard bar-style food, similar to what you'd find at other arcade and bowling venues. If you're looking for gourmet dining, this probably isn't the place, but for quick bites while having fun, it seems to fit the bill. One of the best aspects of this location is that parking is easy, which is always a plus when visiting an entertainment venue. The convenience of not having to circle around looking for a spot makes arriving stress-free. Considering that Columbus, GA doesn't have a ton of entertainment options, Stars and Strikes is definitely a solid choice for a night out. Despite the minor drawbacks, I'll continue to come back because it's one of the few places in town that offers a well-rounded entertainment experience. Whether you're with family, friends, or even on a date night, this place provides a fun, energetic atmosphere that keeps you entertained. If you haven't checked it out yet, it's definitely worth a visit!

They have a snack bar that serves, pizza, nachos, french fries, and a ton of other random stuff. They also have a nice selection of alcoholic beverages. They have 30ish AMF bowling lanes, as well as a small arcade and a pool table. They're open daily. On Friday and Saturday nights they have cosmic bowling. It starts at 10. You pay $16 and bowl as many games as you want until 2 am. Wednesdays, they have a special where you can get your shoes, games, and even snacks for just $1.50 each. Definitely a great place to take your kids! They do host birthday parties! This place is still great for adults and teenagers as well. I mean, who DOESN'T love to bowl?

However, it seems the cleanliness and management have changed drastically in the last year or so. The play place is not as clean or cleaned as it used to be to be. You can see dust, hair, fingerprints, etc. on many surfaces. I remember when they use to be closed for cleaning and now I'm wondering if they even have a designated day for that. The workers are also extremely strict. I get it that there are rules and rules are to be followed, but constantly blowing a whistle or talking over the intercom calling out children is really too much. The saddest thing to me was having a child just above the height requirement on the rules and the worker saying he couldn't play. I have seen adults in there with their small kids. So two of my kids can play, but this child is too tall to play? Get out of here. That was our last time visiting and we won't be going back. Plenty of options in Columbus for kids!

Definitely a little bit outdated and the employees are young adults who seem like they dread their job, but it is what it is. For the amount of stuff they have in one small place, the pricing is just right. The water bumpers attraction is definitely fun, especially during hot days. The line could get long but it's bearable. I love the bowling alley they have. Even though it's outdated, it gives you retro vibes which is pretty cool. Parking can get a little full especially on days where there are birthday parties. Overall, this place is no Dave and Busters but it's definitely a good place for the community.

I recommend this bowling alley and activities if you're looking for something fun in Albany!

There was a vacuum cleaner near one of the play entrances where the cord stretched from one side of the room to the other side of the room where people and children cross and it was still plugged in.

I didn't get the sense that there was any deep cleaning anywhere in that facility. They only have snacks and fluids which are way overpriced. They were understaffed. We visited Funtastic this weekend and had an amazing time. Maybe the owner should visit and see what a clean and safe indoor play area can look like. THIS WAS OUR 1st and last time.
