Expensive! Every game ranges from $2 to $9, our bowling lane kept breaking down (glitching) making us wait for 7-16 minutes. Cotton candy machine also kept breaking down. Games that did work were fun. read more

The out door go carts are horrible. I took my kids to race with them and my son's cart got stuck in middle of the race track and the dude just looked at him and didn't even care. Everyone just passed him. The when it ended didn't offer him a second go or anything. Super wack track. read more

Bowling was cool. Had problems with the bumpers not working when needed. Food was ok.

I stopped by Thursday afternoon with friends. We had a great time remembering how much fun bowling is. The staff was fantastic and the facility was very clean. Thank you for the great experience! read more

Good only for kids No alcohol or hood music just kids everywhere only for families

Prime time is a great place that is just perfect for a family with lots of kids it has amazing go karts!! All the people are really kind!! The workers are very kind and work hard. The lines were a bit long but not like a lot of other places. I would give this a 5 star but the prices are outrageous! They are like 53 dollars for premium and for regular is like 40 dollars!! Which I think is a little overboard. But over all I really do recommend this to every one! Come to Abilene, Texas to go to a great prime time experience!! read more

Micheal was amazing and let us have a lot of fun on the go carts will definitely be back as long as he is there!!!!!

Don't let Ruben cook your pizza he will burn it it was un enjoyable plus the slushies are a scam RUBEN BURNS YOUR PIZZA!!!!!

Had absolutely the worst experience I've ever had. First off, curiocity was completely destroyed. I get it , it's a kids area and doesn't stay nice long but there was almost nobody there and it was an absolute mess. Not to mention the grime all over the place and how disgusting the floors and equipment were. We then proceeded to the arcade where you can not use a card to purchase a game card. You have to either have cash or go over to the main desk and ask for card there. Not a huge deal. But why even do all that? Because about half of the games in the arcade are out of order. The staff is all young and don't care they just stand around and do nothing. Overpriced, no arcade games, poor service, no hygiene standards, DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. read more

Great place for the kiddos. It doesn't take much for them to be happy. They don't get into our finances so they had no idea how much it even cost us to do the unlimited. And they know better than to tell us something sucked when they know how hard we work. They were just so happy to be able to get out of the hotel. And frankly. So was I. Yes. It's a bit pricey. The games especially were a bit much. But honestly, no more than peter pipers or Incredible Pizza Company. The food was honestly pretty good. The young lady running the food section was magnificent with my younglings!!!! She was patient and smiled at them the entire time. Thank you for just that alone!!! I will be bringing my kids back if we are ever in the area again for sure. read more

I was really excited to check the is place out, and I love the idea of their PrimeTime lounge area for board games, pool, darts, retro games, etc. a brilliant idea, but not executed well. Paid for an unlimited play pass to the retro arcade only to walk back there and easily 50% of the games are dark, completely inoperable. The ones remaining, easily a third of those had bad buttons, joy sticks not working in certain direction, punch out cabinet's graphic's malfunctioning...it was a joke. Only one pool table open, darts and board games not available. The group I was with liked a few of their other attractions so that's where they salvaged two stars from me. I will need an awful lot of convincing before going back. read more

Best place to go with the kids, clean, inexpensive, and the food is actually amazing! Tons of games, and other fun things to do. read more

This place is a great bowling alley! The arcade is a bit small for adults. It's also pricey!

Terrible customer service. Food is below average. Very few choices for food selection and pizza is plain. Three phone calls to business to confirm our group and wrong information given to group of 11 for times the business opened. We all arrived at 10:30 on a Saturday and they didn't open until noon. The business then gave lame apology and said was our fault and we messed up on the time. Not true. Business/manager was rude. read more

I really want to work here but I don't live anywhere close to here, and it's just a Five Nights a Freddy's irl read more

PrimeTime Family Entertainment - monopoly!!!! - Arcades Near Me - Abilene, Texas

A little pricey in my honest opinion but it's great for family fun night out or date night. We went and played putt putt & arcade games for date night. Had a blast. Will say some of the lights were out at the putt putt area so we had our phones out with our flashlights to see where the hole was. But we had a blast. read more

So after checking the website and multiple signs at the front desk and in the back stage area which all advertised a BYOB area, we were told that alcohol was not allowed once we were in the "backstage" area and had been bowling for over an hour. This change was apparently made post-COVID, and even though Prime Time has been reopened for months they couldn't be bothered to change their signage or advertisements. read more

The staff here are all young, energetic, and helpful. we had an issue with a family sharing bowling balls in the ball return and the manager took care of it immediately. Lots to do on a cold rainy day: bowling, go carts, arcade, bumper cars, VR, laser tag and more. The $39.99 pass covered most activities with a $10 arcade card and my group of kids are 5 to 13 were happy. read more

First off this place is a rip off 2 games for 2 adults came to 56 bucks! We came in from out of town after driving 9 hours, and wanted to find something for our kid to since she had been in a car all day. We came an hour before closing and I was worried about time, so I asked if we had time to bowl two games and was assured that we could. We got cut off halfway through 2 games. I was offered a free game at a latter date which would be acceptable if we lived in town or this was a national franchise. I asked for monetarily compensation and was refused. Avoid this money pot and their deceptive practices. There are other bowling options in town. So much for that Texas hospitality I have been hearing my whole life. Y'all don't come back ya here. read more

Fun place for family and friends and great staff and members fun games and good food

The first time I went here was for an all day training in one of the private rooms. It was during the day during a work week and all the kids are in school so of course it was empty. It was a great opportunity for us to see what they had to offer without fighting crowds. I was impressed and excited to go back. One of my best friends live in Abilene so we went on a busy Saturday and had a blast. We were probably one of the few adults there without children and we still had fun. We played arcade games and rode on the bumper cars. We had so much fun. When the weather is nicer we plan on going on the go karts and playing miniature golf. Why not? Personally I think the prices are reasonable compared to other places like this that I've been to across the country. The customer service could be better with a lot of the younger employees that work there but it wasn't too bad in our opinion considering all the craziness that was happening. read more

Very poor customer service and misleading cashiers. We pre-paid for 3 games of bowling, halfway thru the 2nd game they cut us off. Told us we paid for a game and a half for each person. The manager on duty advised the cashier to release the lane and they only gave us the rest of the second game. Frustrated, we left. We will NOT be returning. Buyer beware. They are NOT the only bowling facility in town. read more

This place was a total joke. My 9 year old was looking forward to coming back to Abilene solely for PrimeTime. And to quote him "That was disappointing". Understatement of his life. On the bright side my 4 and 6 year old loved it, but of course they like spinning in circles til they almost throw up. Every time we visit it's a must to go here but it's been a few years, and apparently that's the last time some of the games have been working. And I can say without a doubt we will not be back. All we did was the arcade, so my review is based only on that waste of money and space. How do I start, I bought 3 cards(50/25/25) they had to be replaced, because (big surprise) the cards don't work either. The games were garbage, falling apart, not working. Three of them rebooted on us mid-play. Tickets were out in majority of the games. Desperate to get out of there and needing to waste money fast we swiped on the $12 guaranteed win claw game. Played that for at least 30 minutes, grabbed the same horse 3 times for It to be held hostage for 10 seconds just to open up and drop It back in the exact slot I grabbed It from. This in and of itself was a miracle since the controller was broke and It took 3 Hail Marys and 1 our father just to do that. Finally by the grace of your chosen supreme being, a unicorn accidentally fell in the prize slot. So ready to leave we gave our 400+ tickets to some other poor saps who fell for the BS and told my kids we'd go to target for toys. But not to be totally negative at least It wasn't packed. On spring break. That should say plenty. I would pass on Way Past It's Primetime. read more

Little bit of everything for the family. Bowling, arcade, go carts, mini golf, laser tag, and some NASCAR simulator that you won't find me anywhere near. Kids love this place. Many parents hate it because it's pricey. Taking your fam here can easily cost over $70. Birthday parties are also expensive. But they do have special deals and promotions sometimes that are worth trying. Kids cost enough money already. Having a little fun shouldn't break the bank. As for the service.... everyone was very friendly. The guys from the snack bar checked on is frequently while we bowled, asking us if we needed anything and offered us samples of deep fried pickles. Ugh! The thought was sweet but I don't like pickles. Last thing....they have an after school program but they only pick up from Wylie, Taylor, and Austin. Hmmmmmmm. What's the deal with that? I'm just saying. read more

The concept is great. The pricing for unlimited go karts, bumper cars, laser tag, bowling, and a theater 3D is $34.95. You have to pay extra for all the video games and skew ball, etc. I took two 9 year olds and we did the unlimited. They were bored very quickly with the options. All they wanted to do was play the games to get tickets to purchase the prizes which are cheap and completely not worth anything. But I did expect this experience because that's what these places are. However, I had to constantly find someone to let us play laser tag or do bumper cars or get into the theater. There were 4 staff members behind the counter at front desk laughing and on their phones. We went on a Monday. It wasn't busy. Very disappointing. A shining light was the guys at the go karts. They were very nice and accommodating. Was interested in us being safe and wanted us to have a great time. read more

Rip off place. Let me reiterate: rip off place. The place is usually short-staffed, so it takes forever to get things going. Unlimited drink bracelet- really? $10.00! How much can an 8-year old drink? The toilets are filthy. The arcade is too expensive. The pizza tastes like cardboard. When my grandson cashed in his measly tickets, the attendant acted like it was a great effort to help him with his "prizes". We won't be back. This appears to be corporate greed at its finest. read more

Four of us stopped in for an afternoon of fun, and had a great time! I had found a coupon online when browsing the Abilene visitor's website. It was a tremendous value! I hear they offer specials of all kinds all week long and even the last Sunday of the month have a special for Family's at the Dyess Air Force Base. I LOVE to support businesses that support the military! We started off playing a few rounds in the batting cages. I haven't done that since I was kid and it was fun! Having not been to a batting cage in forever I can't say if this one was unique but I was happy I could choose softball or hardball and then the speed of the pitches. We played a game of bowling. There are only 16 lanes which makes this a more intimate and less loud of an affair than a super big bowling alley. There were several birthday parties going on and room for plenty more. Next we queued up for a game of lazer tag. I was impressed. A two story maze with plenty of hiding places and cut outs, lots of glow in the dark accents and ramps, its quite a great layout. The game was supposed to last 5:00 minutes, but they let us play for 7:30 which was also really great. Thanks management! A large pizza and four sodas got us ready for a stint in the arcade. The pizza was no great shakes, and yes, it was greasy, but this isn't a gourmet restaurant so it's not like our expectations were dashed. The soda was ice cold. The arcade wasn't very big, but we still found fun things to entertain us. I looked around for whack-a-mole but didn't find one. Instead they had this neat platform where up to two players could swat at lights as they lit up. That was much more intense and fun. We played several rounds until we were all laughing and breathless! We won the 200 ticket jackpot on Deal or No Deal. We played skee-ball and air hockey and many others. We spent several hours here and had a truly great time. We didn't even touch the bumper cars, the Nascar simulator cars (those looked really fun!), the minigolf course or the go karts.... guess we have reasons to come back! read more

Coming to the place the first time from out of town and you can tell the place is on the decay. Unmotivated workers, broken arcade games, poor cleanliness, all present. What's more I'm still confused at being carded to drive a go kart by a kid 5 years my younger. Suggest avoiding this place for better options. Not worth the money read more

Lots of fun for a reasonable price for our large family. We love coming here and staying out of the summer heat.

This place is okay Nothing special I wish it was a dave and busters. The kids and I enjoyed the go karts and mini golf. We didn't do anything else. read more

Tons of fun - a little bit of everything to do. My three kids beg and beg to go here and always leave happy (and tired)!

It was something to do. Very friendly people. The place was mainly kept up. The mini golf course was a bit confusing, but still fun.

Had my daughter's birthday party there. It was a Saturday night and they were understaffed. Only had 1 person working the concession stand. Stood in line for 15 minutes. Kids enjoyed the bowling. But stood in line for go carts for an hour. Everything just seemed unorganized. read more

Visited over the weekend, kids and hubby had a good time. Games were kinda pricey. We went mainly for the go-karts. The kids go-kart track is lame. read more

Wow. Every kid's dream, every parent's nightmare. This place is pricey but has food, drinks, a decent arcade, bumper cars, mini golf, bowling and on and on. Good place to go if the weather isn't ideal. I am glad to see that Abilene is coming up in the world and getting some fun stuff to do. This place would be fun for kids, teens and even young adults going on a date. They have a play area inside similar to a McDonald's play place except it is way better. The down side, they charge $3 for the little kids to play in it. I was disappointed to see that. Play areas should be free. Anyone of any age can probably find something here to do. Good job Abilene! read more

I'm going to go ahead and rate this place a 4/5. I went for a visit with some of my co-workers to see how Primetime runs their establishment. I don't want to give any of their business secrets away, but I do have a few compliments. There's plenty to do for everyone. Everything is new and bright and fun. The pizza is not bad; in fact, it's just as good as some chain pizzas. There's a large conference area too that many people don't know about, and you can have very large, catered gatherings there. The catered food is very good. read more

This was a fun spot for the family. It has a lot to offer. The only downfall are the arcade games a tad pricey. $1.50-$2.50 is a bit much and the fact that they charge &10 for the virtual reality is ridiculous. read more
