    This is definitely a nice place to come if you have kids that enjoy bowling or video games. Came on a holiday while school was out to bring a group of students in a mentoring program. Their average age was 15 to 17 years old. He came out to stratosphere social for the first time. For the first hour we reserved five bowling lanes. We had lunch there then had a hour of arcade time. It was definitely fun. They have a full service bar and a kitchen with assorted other food items. We only had pizza so we could keep it simple and we could not indulge in the bar area since we were chaperoning children. The pizza was so so. That is the only issue that I had. It was rather garlicky sauce and a little bit doughy. It seemed like they rushed to get them out. It was probably because we had a large group and needed eight pizzas brought out quickly. I had some serious food envy when I saw what some of the other people were ordering from the kitchen so I won't hold the food against them. The kids had fun bowling. They have the traditional scoring method and they have other games That you can play. For the arcade portion they gave each of the kids a game card that activated on the first swipe and it was unlimited gaming for one hour. All of the kids enjoyed themselves and had a great time. I am interested in coming back on my personal time since it actually is very close to where I live.

    What a fun place , with a good variety of activities for everyone. You can bowl, play arcade games, watch sports, have birthday parties or just hang out with some good drinks. Service was great. The atmosphere is very lively, can get a bit noisy especially when kids party going on. Highly advise the parents keep a close watch on the runners so they don't get hurt. The bar food were surprisingly tasty, especially the chicken wings, the meat falls off the bone and flavor is on point. Since they have a full bar, so any drinks can be customized. Large parking lot out front, so parking is definitely no issue. Definitely recommend for family outings.

    Think of Dave and Busters but a bit matured and with less traffic. Stratosphere Social is a cool family fun space in Carroll County. There is plenty of parking in a private lot just be sure to follow your navigation on your first visit because the facility isn't visible from the main thoroughfare. The staff is welcoming and although a bit young seemed knowledgeable and ready to assist with any needs. There are several private event spaces including a "rooftop" for privacy away from the main floor. There's an arcade, bowling alley, axe throwing lanes, corn hole, bar and general table seating. There is also a simulation of some sort that I didn't investigate too thoroughly. Prices seemed to be fair despite the $15 per hour fee for corn hole. Overall it was a fun family experience that I'll be sure to return to again and again.

    I had a group of 9 people ..When I say I had the best experience ever thanks to the server Halle she made sure we had everything we needed down to just bringing extra napkins..I will be back just for her ..

    So we stumbled across this place, and it was pretty cool. They have bowling, axe throwing, a big game room, and an inside backyard set up that was cool with different board games. Food and drink, the place is kid friendly check the website they have diffrent things for diffrent nights. The servers were good from beginning to end. Stop by for some fun and games. Also, have a batting cage next door.

    Waiting two hours for a lane, this is what it looked like most of the time.

    Quality food and drink, friendly servers. Very clean. Arcade is somewhat lacking in games, too many ticket related ones. Bowling lane usage seems to be very poorly managed. Watched mostly empty lanes for over two hours. Leaving a lot of money on the table by Leaving those reserved lanes open and unused for hours waiting for a party to show up.

    Do they have duckpin bowling? No one will answer the phone when we call and their website doesn't say!?

    Hi Melanie, we do not have duckpin bowling. All of our bowling is ten pin. Please let me know if you have any other questions. We look forward to seeing you!

    We did an hour of bowling both times and had a lot of fun, and felt very safe as they seem to take COVID precautions seriously.

    Now the concept of Duckpin bowling itself is a pretty cool spin off of regular bowling, but this…read moreplace specifically is stuck in the past aesthetically and even attitude and culturally. I went here many years ago as a child but never bowled until an adult despite living in the Washington DMV area all of my life. The man at the information desk was snarky, rude, and did not even look at us upon our arrival and stated how numerous people come in there thinking that it is regular bowling when it is duckpin bowling. I did my research and stated that I knew that it was duckpin bowling and thanked him. He was just bitter, miserable, uninviting, and unwelcoming and just gave off the non-progressive vibe of the place. The other gentleman who worked with the food section and general upkeep and customer engagement was a lot nicer. The bowling alley and the restrooms need overhaul. There are no dividers between men urinals, one of the sinks were missing a knob, and the stall lock was broken, these all contribute to the dull, dated vibe. The alley itself is bland. It does not need to have all the bells and whistles like Bowlero/Lucky Strike club/lounge style bowling experience, but a paint job and other major updates to have the place have more modern appeal would work wonders. The clientele is not diverse and does not reflect the enormous diversity of the White Oak/Silver Spring area and had me thinking I was out in Westminster or somewhere in Carroll County that is conservative and not as progressive, diverse, and welcoming but more exclusive type of vibe. I am not surprised by other reviewers who called this place out for its discriminatory vibe and dated, non-progressive feel. I am not a competitive/hardcore bowler, so I will stick to the Bowlero/Lucky Strike experience for the casual fun but with a much more modern, progressive feel, vibe, & culture.

    Had a great time with the family. Food was great. Lanes we old time. But it was greatread more
