For a group of ~20 it was perfect: I believe 10 can play at a time so we got to switch in and out. The game itself is a mix of lacrosse and number cars - even more fun than I expected, and our group of ~30 year olds plus some parents had a blast. They also have an arcade, bowling, and an escape room - plus probably other stuff I missed! They had tables you could book/reserve which is nice and service drinks and food like pizzas.

We of course ended up here because we were staying at the hotel next door. As a tourist, we had to…read morecheck it out. I was surprised at how much space there was inside, and how much there was to do in there. We didn't get a chance to try the actual whirly ball activity, but we did go bowling and play at the arcades. We ate dinner there one night and also spent some time at the bar. I actually enjoyed the birria taco with the consumes. The flavors were there. I think it was evenly balanced out. More meat is always great, but I don't think it was lacking. My son had the tenders, which was OK. The bartenders were also the servers. One bartender particularly was extremely nice and efficient. Both nights we went there were not too busy, but a fair amount of customers. We had a great time and were able to roam around to see what they had to offer.

We celebrated our son's 12th Birthday at Tactical Urban Combat on Saturday and everyone LOVED it!…read more It was nonstop fun and we loved the whole unique experience at TUC. It was better than laser tag and paintball. The three employees there were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and--most importantly--fun and obviously loved their jobs. The 7 boys enjoyed a full hour of different games with Nerf Rival shooters, including Capture the Flag. The place is huge and has many great hiding/attack spots for participants. It was clean, safe (everyone is required to wear safety goggles and can wear helmets if they choose), refs ensure that everyone is honest (these boys did a great job on their own), and it kept them active and entertained the entire time. The staff aptly explained the rules and demonstrated how to load and shoot the blasters. Did I mention how nice the employees are? One of them even jumped in to even the teams after one had a winning streak. The balls didn't hurt at all, despite getting pelted with them many times as I was taking pictures. I thought I heard faint cries of "That's for making me clean my room," but I'm certain they were accidental hits. :) Booking online was so very easy and their online waiver made it super easy for parents to sign it before we arrived. I highly recommend them for kids, as well as adults. They have many companies, bachelor parties, birthdays, etc. hold events there for people of all ages. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much to your entire team for making his birthday fun for everyone!

Kids can try out bumper cars, laser tag, playground, ball pit, VR games, air hockey, claw machines, arcade games and more!

Kids also enjoyed the laser beam challenge, the valloroom game, and bumper ride. We didn't do the arcade or the VR but it was still plenty and the kids were super happy to spend the afternoon here! Did not get a chance to try the food but they seemed to have lots of options.

Although the entree was a little pricey my experience was really enjoyable. The mini trampoline park was fun, and it burned lots of calories - lol. My younger brother learned how to do a backflip. At the trampolines there was supervision by workers and other parents. At the arcade there were many few games that I wanted to play, but I am very picky. Laser tag wasn't really that fun, but only because we went against 4 really good guys. I ended up with negative points because of them . Mini golf is a fun family activity to do with your family! There are water hazards and many of the golf balls were the water which I thought was really funny. It's not even that hard to have your ball land in the water! We didn't try the batting cages but it looked super cool. They had bats and helmets already there for the guests. Near the end of our stay at the grand slam we were tired so we ordered 2 large icee's. The icee machine was frozen and couldn't make the icee's. So the workers gave us a free large soda. I wasn't that mad at the situation. Over all I give this experience a 5 star ranking! A wonderful family friendly place to go in your free time!

This time it was a disaster. Completely overrun by little kids who treated the course like a playground. Some had parents who were present and not trying to keep any order. In fact, we had adults just standing around the holes we were playing. When I asked one lady if she could move, she asked why! People were running around randomly playing--total chaos. An employee walked through and did nothing. If I was looking for a jungle gym for my small children, ok, but DO NOT COME HERE TO PLAY A ROUND OF MINI GOLF. You can't!

He ensured we had everything we needed and really went above and beyond to see that we had what we needed. We rented a lane, ordered two pizzas(cheese and pepperoni) , two types of wings (bbq and garlic parm), and two alcoholic beverages (mule and Long Island). Everything was delish, even for something from a bowling alley. When we were ready to wrap up, the managers were ready to give us boxes for our extra food, and take shoes when we were ready. we weren't left waiting at any point. Everything was clean, from lanes, to seating areas, to bathrooms. This place was run really well and I'd highly recommend a visit in if you're considering bowling, laser tag, or games. We'll be going here again in the future, for sure.

It was a late Sunday afternoon and I was looking to take two teens and a five-year-old bowling. $7.50 per person - per game - plus mandatory shoe rental at six dollars per person to include the five-year-old. It all adds up. The bitter berry on my cake is the fact that I paid $35 for an appetizer sampler that would've cost half elsewhere - was COLD when it came out along with the nachos. Mind you the place might have been a little understaffed but they were trying. Two games of bowling, shoes, nachos, app sampler, pop drinks, plus a tip was over $200 as a walk in on a Sunday... is that what it costs now!!!? It was okay, I'd try again but I'd be super mindful on what time I'm coming in and ask upfront what total costs will be. Maybe eat a meal elsewhere. Besides that it seemed okay for what it was. Trendy decor and tons of screens for young and old humans to be entertained by.

Bowlero Lakeville Rocks for Birthday Parties!…read more We just had the BEST 10th birthday party for our son Jaycen at Bowlero Lakeville this past Saturday! They reserved 3 bowling lanes for our group of 17 kids and a few adults, which was perfect. Food & Drinks: We opted for their party package and it was fantastic. The chicken tenders, fries, pizza, hot dogs, chips & salsa, and chocolate chip cookie cake were a huge hit with the kids (and adults!). There was also unlimited soda (Pepsi products) which kept everyone happy and hydrated. Amazing Staff: A huge shoutout to Felicia, the General Manager, and Jenna, the Event Manager. They were both phenomenal! Felicia was on top of everything, making sure our party ran smoothly. We were so impressed to see her helping Jenna clean up after the party - that kind of leadership doesn't go unnoticed! She was incredibly friendly and truly made Jaycen's birthday special. Both Felicia and Jenna checked in with us constantly to make sure we had everything we needed - they were on point! Fun for Everyone: The kids even got arcade game cards loaded with funds to play with, and Felicia and Jenna encouraged them to enjoy both bowling and the arcade games. They were incredibly patient with all the excited boys running around. Taking it Home: After the party, Jenna helped us gather all the leftover food and provided boxes so we could take it home (seriously, enough food for days!). Overall Experience: This was an absolute slam dunk of a birthday party! Felicia's management and Jenna's event coordination made it such a success. Felicia absolutely deserves recognition for her fantastic leadership, and Jenna for her excellent service. They were both amazing and so easy to work with. Thank you, Bowlero Lakeville! P.S. This Bowlero location seems to have really improved since our last visit. We will definitely be back and will encourage friends to host their birthday parties and even events here!!
