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!

Absolutely awful experience, they will not refund or fix any orders THEY mess up. The manager is…read morethe epitome of someone who hates their job and has no care in the world. Extremely rude and disrespectful. Could not even order food due to the fact she would 100% would have spit in the food at the least. Would not recommend anyone to go here, especially a child's birthday party.

The customer service was great.. The grand daughter even was attentive. Everything was great ... until the crowd started coming question? Why do Everything, event, scene ect has to endure the smell of Marijuana... .. Especially a venue promoted for children? Come on people, where's the respect?

This baby casino is very nice. I prefer to bring my kid during the weekday as an after school…read moretreat. Then there won't be too many people in there, mainly toddlers and homeschool kids. I try to avoid the baby casino during the weekend. It's pandemonium in there! But of course some kid she knows, at least once a year, has a party there on a Saturday. Maybe going during their slower hours has spoiled my kid, but I can see the frustration building when she's running around looking for a unoccupied game to play. Then the lines at the ticket stations are long and she gets ticket envy. No we're not getting more tokens so you can win more tickets so you can get the makeup kit. I can literally buy that for you at Walmart or Dollar Tree. Don't get me wrong, I like this place. As a nerdy/dorky mom, my favorite game is the Batman video game. I often think about going during my lunch break so I can play all the levels by myself and eat pizza that could be classified as cardboard once it reaches room temperature. But I also try to avoid it. They have a lunch special from 11-3pm And of course Chuck E will make it rain on the kids every 45mins. If there aren't that many people in there, you feel relatively safe letting your kid wonder around by themselves, while you keep an eye on them from one of the many seating booths. All bets are off if it's Saturday. Every kid for themselves. Protect your own!
