It's easy to order food and drinks at the bar and you can seat yourself at any table. They usually have whirlyball courts open but it is easier to reserve. It's nice if you have a big group you can switch players out since the games are about 10 minutes. You can reserve for the hour and add time if needed. They also have so many other things available here like bowling, escape rooms and a small arcade area. Food is decent, good options. Really good when it's hot and fresh!

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.

After horseback riding with 8 and 11 at the Bunker Park Stables, we came to the Fun Lab for lunch…read moreand some gaming. There is a lot to do here and some of it is more experiential than most locations with games. They had laser tag, for instance, which the kids just loved. They had dodge-em cars which were very popular as well, but the games were not as good as we have experienced at Dave & Buster's in Edina or at the Burrough out in Victoria. Their game card is very confusing. You buy a $50 card, but it only has 25 points on it. But it gives you unlimited use of some of the experiential games. So we wasted a lot of time upfront trying to figure that out. Front desk staff was helpful, but in general, the supervising teenagers there were aloof and just doing their jobs. They have a small grill and the food was surprisingly good. My husband had an excellent hamburger with french fries and the kids and I each had small individual size pizzas which were very good. I asked the kids to rate it while we were in the car and they gave it five stars. But when they compared it to Dave & Buster's, they gave it no stars to Dave & Buster's 10 stars. I give it overall four stars and I'm taking a Star away because the bathrooms were dirty and 3 out of 4 bathrooms none of the water was working in the sinks so we couldn't wash our hands. They win on Dodge cars, laser tag, and decent snacks.

They will run up debt (through a combination of incompetent management and doing a big update/remodel) then hold on for dear life for a year or two then file for bankruptcy protection, get the debt discharged, change names and repeat. So going back 28 years it was AMF who merged with Brunswick and then did a big remodel to Brunswick and BAM bankruptcy in 2001. So after that bankruptcy they rebranded everything to Brunswick and were going good for about a decade then BAM once again they went bankrupt in 2013. After that they rebranded as Brunswick Zone which went on for a few years and then changed it to Bowlero and it feels like the cycle is about to repeat and expect bankruptcy around the corner. So this particular location USED to have a nice bar with eight pool tables, darts, a cozy fireplace, plenty of seating, and was busy on weekends. I mean they needed two bartenders for all the customers and was going just fine. Yeah Covid happened, yeah economy took a downturn, so what did they do....? They tore out the bar and now it's just a big empty room with three pool tables in the middle. Half the cues have no tips, there is no bar, no food, no employees just one room with three pool tables (and one broken table in the corner covered with a tarp) and a sign that says "See front desk for pool balls". The room was DEAD EMPTY....it's like they're trying to lose money. Another funny thing is the bowling alley. One side is all remodeled with nice high back chairs and leather seating and all modern while the other side of the bowling area is the old tables and hard plastic chairs. Like they remodeled half the bowling area....? Who does that?? I would expect the corporate company to be in bankruptcy court in a year or two. Also it's perplexing to me why this business would shut down a profitable bar and pool league and just have an empty room now????

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!!
