Went here for Father's day. It is a pretty good way to spend some time with friends and family. I have learned, however, eat before you come. Not a huge fan of the food, and selection. The drinks are pretty good, and they have a lot of non-alcoholic selections that are flavored teas or whatever. Lots of mixed drinks as well. The play is fun. You can bring in your own clubs, but for the most part it is amateur, so don't worry if you cant hit the ball a mile. Most people use a lot of mulligans. Always a couple show offs that think they are pros, but whatever makes them happy. The games are cute, and great for 6 or less people. We always have fun, especially when the worst one there always wins because some of the higher scoring "drives" are the chippers that barely make it off the tee. I like hitting from the 2nd or 3rd floor, just seems cooler, but maybe I'll try bottom next time. The only negatives are the sometimes poor service (I always love when I see my server for a greet and then to shut off my lane a get the bill :(... Also, it was pretty hot, and although shaded, the oscillating fan's in our particular bay were not moving and only pointing at the bay's to the right and to the left of us. We were by the door to the bar, through, and got a gush of refrigerated air once in a while... read more

Topgolf - Golf - Golf Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Disappointing food, service, technology, and overall experience. I really hate that you have to pay a fee to set up an account. I know that's all topgolf location but it's kind of a weird business practice. Also it was hard to find the staff to help out or set up so I felt like we had to call them over to get any service. The technology kind of sucks. It wouldn't recognize a lot of hits we did and it was kind of disappointing. Also the waving technology to get the ball to come out took many attempts and was really slow. It also stopped prematurely so felt scammed out on the full time. Also the staff at the front doesn't really know any information on some of the deals. I asked about the monthly membership and the stuff just said look online as they didn't know anything about it but it was advertised in front of them. I also wish there was a mode where you can just hit the ball and it tracks it stat wise with no game mode. read more

We came here on a hot Sunday in August. It was pretty busy but we were able to get in without a reservation. Two of the four of us were newbies to the whole experience. It was fantastic! Lots of games with different difficulty levels to choose from. Super fun experience. They have many large fans blowing that helped with the heat, many food and beverage choices. We ordered the pretzel bites and nachos. They were great munchies to have while golfing. Full table service so you can relax and just have a great time! Perfect for a date, hanging out with friends or family day out! read more

We had a reservation and was able to go straight to our bay. It seemed pretty busy. Playing was fun, but we ordered food and it took forever for us to get our food. Some people didn't even get their food in the 2 hrs that we had. The servers were great. You can tell they got a little worried about the food situation. I ordered buffalo chicken dip without the breading on top, but they put it up there anyway, so I had to scrape it off which caused me to lose a lot of dip. I would've sent it back, but it had already taken an hour to get it. The manager did come and speak to us and apologized for others not getting their food. They did bring out a Caesar salad and fries, but the fries were cold and the salad was soggy. They comped all the food except the drinks and my dip and they gave us coupons for the next visit. read more

I think this is a great Topgolf! This is my second time at this location and I came for a work holiday party. I loved the holiday decorations and drinks! I had one of each winter/holiday drink and the Hot Shot Cider was the best. The servers were great. The food was buffet style and it was decent, some items were better than others (the chicken tenders were my favorite). I really liked their chicken wings the last time I was at this Topgolf. I tried all the Topgolf games and I liked the Block Party game the best, but all of the games were fun! I hope to come back for a date with my husband on a weekday (it's cheaper to rent a bay Monday - Thursday). read more

Our family went to Topgolf to celebrate my Dad's 84th birthday and it was a great time as it always is at Topgolf. It was a hot day, over 100 degrees, and we very thankful to have fans blowing at all times for the nice breeze. The ambiance is always impressive at Topgolf and the customer service is on point at all times. Our server took very good care of us and was on point with our food and requests. The food is terrific at Topgolf. I ordered the turkey club sandwich with tater tots and it was delicious! The pretzel bites and pizza are also wonderful. Topgolf has a full bar available and the draft beer selection is very good as well. The golf range is fun entertainment and it is always fun to hit some golf balls and enjoy each other's company. It does not matter how good or bad you are at golf. It is all about having fun and spending time with family or friends. Topgolf is always a blast and I will continue to come here with family or friends if I am looking for a fun activity to do on a weekend or during the week. Everyone should come experience Topgolf at least once in their lifetime. It is awesome! read more

Fun place to go. Food was good. I just wish staff were more attentive. I feel like they rely heavily on the app and I felt like we were continuously asking them to take empty cups and dishes. We were there at opening and we wanted to get the couches instead of high tops but when we asked the front desk stated " I already assigned you to a high tops" I guess we could have pushed to change but it was like there was no other option. read more

My family of 4 decided to try this place because usually all four of us have a very different taste and we end up checking our mobiles (a lot) whenever we try to do something together Believe it or not at top golf no mobiles came out from pockets because all of us were two busy beating each other's score.. the place was open, clean and we were given a private section to play.. we thoroughly enjoyed the time .. angry bird simulator was a family favourite! We ordered non alcoholic drinks and chips with dips.. our server was attentive and polite. Awesome time spent. Entry fee is pretty reasonable .. Already blocked a date to go back Need I say more .. I won two out of three games (this is for the record so there is no argument ) Yes, the Place could be cleaner .. but you know the world is not perfect so I am letting 5 star slide because we all had so much fun and that is what matters read more

If you want to have family fun time, Date Night, solo Date, practice golf, you can do it here. I've seen it all here. We have fun every time here. With friends, family and by ourselves. The staff is mostly friendly and helpful to each other. Although this day not so much. We needed a golf tea and ask a staff member for one and because he was not our waiter he wouldn't help us and wouldn't help our waiter on multiple different occasions. We also had issues with our monitors not working but he called over the tech staff and they got it working in no time. The food is ok for this type of establishment. We like the pizza. Hot honey pepperoni. Fries are ok. The beer and drinks are good as well. For best experience if adults request 2nd and 3rd floor. If you have little ones I would stay on bottom floor. If you have a big party 2 hours will go by fast so plan for 3 hours and side note ask for that military discount if you qualify! read more

I reserved the "Tailgate Package" with two bays for 7-12 people for a birthday party. The experience was not worth the cost. Our server was unaware of what was included with the package causing delay and confusion. Our party started about 15 minutes late, our server was slow getting the games turned on (we had to ask for them to be turned on). The manger on duty was apologetic. He placed our ice cream cake in the fridge while we waited. Once we were seated at our bay, he was kind enough to provide us with a table for gifts. The food was delayed in coming out. When I asked about the food, our server stated that it will be about another 30 minutes. Surprisingly, as I was inquiring about the food that was included with the package, a flatbread pizza was delivered to the table bc a party guest was hungry and placed an order. After further complaint, the food was delivered about 20 minutes later. I was not impressed with the food included with the package. The dips were not tasty: Kickin Dip 5/10, Dill dip (3/10), chips overcooked and unappetizing (1/10), the Mac and cheese bites were okay 6/10, ordered bone-in wings received boneless wings (3/10), the pork sliders were also unappetizing: the bread was hard, the pork's was dry and the coleslaw was runny (2/10). The guest enjoyed playing the golf games; but everyone has complained about having an upset stomachs following the party. read more

Had a small birthday celebration for my significant other here. We reserved two bays on the second level for a small group of friends (total of 8). The number was perfect for the bays.

A few weeks back, a group of friends made plans to go to the beach. After the group's primary plans were canceled, the group decided to meet here. Topgolf did a great job (on short notice) accommodating a fairly large group of approximately 30-35 ppl. Participants receive a designated area that will allow 1-10 users (if I remember correctly). Topgolf ensured each of our Bays were consecutive. Also, we received safety instructions and simplified game instructions. I'm a complete novice to golf beyond putt-putt. The instructions were useful, however it will take patience and time to fully understand how each of the games are scored and the best way to WIN (welp!). However, the process works so that you enter your name (email for first timers), determine a time limit, determine a game, and begin. The system knows where your ball lands and attributes points depending on the game. Overall a fun and interactive experience. I'd definitely grab a group and return. Please note flies/wasps can be an issue, especially if you order food/drinks. I did not order food or drinks, but there were reasonable drink specials and I heard the drinks were very good.

I went again and unfortunately not much has changed in terms of my overall experience. I still have really high expectations for this place, especially considering the location and what it is, which is considering themselves a luxury social golf hangout area. My waitress was very kind, I really liked her and thought she was helpful, but I felt that she was a little slow but it was probably hard since we were at the bay near the end. One the the biggest issue I had was trying to get my waitress's attention, for example we didn't have silverware or napkins and stuff like that, or needed refills and I would have to go out of my way to ask someone to get my waitress. At one point, another person came to drop off our food or bus? Our table, and I asked if we could get a refill and she said " That's not my job. I don't do those" then walked away. It was very uncomfortable and would have rather her saying that she would go tell someone else to do it but instead she just left us and it was very uncomfortable. read more

Made a reservation for Saturday night at the Durham location. I'm glad we did, when we walked in the people in front of us were told there was a two hour wait. I highly suggest you make a reservation for the weekend, our time was 8:00 but we arrived at 7:30 and was told we probably wouldn't be able to play until 8:00, which was fine. Went to the bar on the bottom floor, there were two bartenders and no one greater us, acknowledged us, nothing. Went waited there for 15 mins before the bartender asked if we needed anything. We asked if there were bars on other floors and she said yes all three so we went to the third floor since our bay would be there. I'm a great tipper and I have a problem not tipping even if the service is subpar. My partner gets on me all the time about this. I refused at that point to have her wait on us and give her a tip that she didn't deserve. On the third floor Ivory greeted us as soon as we walked in and sat at the bar. We ordered 3 shots and 4 beers. I then received the text that our bay was ready, asked to close out and I was shocked at the 82.00 bill. I looked at the itemized bill and we were charged for 5 shots. Brought this to Ivory's attention and she stated she would need to get a manger. If you know topgolf, you know the time starts when the bay is assigned. I dint want to want on a manager so just told her to make us two more shots and we will take the with us. We arrived to our bay, and since we had already checked in online our names were up and ready but the bay was not! Table was dirty, trash everywhere. I grabbed the nearest person who said they would get someone over to clean it up. Our waitress Dyanna came over shortly after and apologized about the table being dirty and took our order for drinks. We had the bay reserved for two hours, and about an hour in we decided to order food. We went with hot honey pepperoni pizza, fries, and they had these chicken sliders on the menu as a package meal but not available to order so we went with the chicken katsu sliders. The food arrived to us about 40 mins later and the fries weren't even hot! The chicken sliders were burnt and the side of ranch we ordered came even later. I probably will eat before I go next time or get the pizza, it was pretty good. Overall we had fun, just a lot of mishaps. read more

My brother and his kids came into town for a visit. My kids have never been to topgolf. Took advantage the weekday deal. All the kids had fun. My son was really invested in improving his swing. We had a day that had couches and a little table so it was super comfy. Since it was a hot day, all the fans were going. We also got some food, which was also pretty good. Our server was very attentive and helpful. read more

Came here last summer with some friends. We were super exited that a TopGolf opened up near our home. This place has great gameplay and has better technology compared to other similar golf venues. Obviously the prices can be steep at times so plan accordingly, however they are most reasonable times you can attend (off peak). The staff seemed friendly and fulfilled our orders in a timely manner. Ambiance is cool since it over looks the RDU area, so you can see planes takeoff and land while your playing golf. Overall fun place to go with golf lovers! read more

Great experience! Visited on an abnormally cold evening for here in NC. We were able to secure unreserved seating in the second level which was nice and appreciated. Luckily their outdoor set up is great with heating as we were able to stay outdoor and still stay warm. The checkin staff was very welcoming and accommodating for a novice group visiting their first time and not understanding how things work. Service nice seated was attentive and quick. Food (appetizers) were great as were the drinks. We did try to watch the hornets basketball game after but they do not seem to have the paid services for sports. Something to keep in mind if you expect to hang out indoors and have a pick of what you'd like to watch (if call ahead of time). I will definitely be coming back! Slot of fun for groups. read more

This our first time at Top-golf, we normally go to Drive shack. So there's a party of nine of us and we walked in and asked for two areas and was told that it was gonna be two hours.. this is completely understandable since it is the day after Thanksgiving. We have been eating and drinking for the last two hours and when we went to go check in on our spot they told us since we did not make a reservation that it would be another two hours because they keep skipping us for the people who did. First off, what kind of bullshit is this!!?? If we walk in you should recommend us making an online reservation or doing it for us since we're literally right there. I don't know if it's the person behind the counter that screwed up or what but we honestly will never come back here ever again. We just spent a fortune at your bar to be then treated like this. You expect your customers to sit around for four hours to play golf!!!???? Never again! read more

First time at the Durham/RTP Top Golf and the weather is beautiful. For that reason, there's a bit of a wait (1-2 hours). Plan to book on the app if you prefer not to wait, although I didn't have an issue as time as not a factor for me. I ordered a bite to eat while awaiting a bay opening. The bar tender was really nice and the food was good. I preferred the Dirty Pepsi over the Strawberry & Crème Starry, the burger was the best part of the meal. I will definitely attend again in the future Unika B. & Co. read more

A bit different than other Top Golf's Maybe the night? Maybe because it seems so far out in the boonies? Dunno? Either way, they changed the rental to per BAY not per person, I think 6 was the limit. Not too busy. Good service at the table and bar. Food typical sub-par of Top Golf's, but you are not there for the food! We reserved a bay 2 wks ahead of time and made a nice team building event without a huge $$$ read more

We took my son and his friend for his birthday. Facilities were clean, games fun. However, food service completely ruined the outing. We ordered 2 appetizers. Only one arrived. Our host came back a bit later to check on the second one (it showed as sent back). We ordered meals with roughly an hour left in our 90 minute block. With 10 minutes left, 2 of the 4 meals arrived (but of course, not my son's). I asked if we'd be allowed to stay in the bay to eat when the other 2 arrived, and were firmly told no (somehow the bay next to us, who ordered at the same time, received food, and was allowed to stay). When time ran out, no sign of the other 2 meals. They did issue a credit for part of the bay time, and the 2 meals and 1 appetizer that never showed up, but it definitely put a damper on the night - next time we'll try DriveShack read more

Went with a party of eight for two bays for two hours. We arrived early but didn't get our bay assignment until 8 minutes after our reserved time. Clock apparently started at the reservation time. The console at the tee for one of the bays wasn't working so we had to wait 15 minutes for it to be reset. The manager came and gave us back 15 minutes. That's fine they were responsive eventually and made it right but I had a really hard time finding anyone to tell them about the issue. Server all the way down other end of third floor was the only staff member I could find. Our server showed up and took orders but the food took 45 minutes and came out incomplete - my pizza showed up 20 minutes before my wife's food. I'm not going to be rude and eat in front of her so I waited and enjoyed cold pizza. Once we placed the initial order and food came I saw the server again near the end when we wanted more drinks. My daughter's chicken tenders showed up with just fried breading and no chicken inside any of the pieces. The order was replaced but I didn't realize until after that I was charged for the replacement and the original. Also the replacement took so long we were eating the birthday cake we brought with us at the same time. No napkins ever showed up from our server - we had to steal some from the catered event at the adjacent bay. Sorry to whoever used the clubs after me as I'm sure there was some honey pepperoni pizza residue. This was really bottom of the barrel service. The golf and people I was with were fun and made it a good birthday. But 420$ after food and beverages was about twice what this should have been given the delays and horrible service. Top golf needs to do better for the price. read more

I had a truly frustrating experience at Topgolf Durham during what was supposed to be a nice date night. We had a booked reservation, yet when we arrived, they made us wait past our reserved time. First, we were told, "They're cleaning your bay." Then we were told we could go to a specific bay number they provided. When we got there, it was already occupied by guests who were having dinner and had just placed their order. How does that even happen? By this point, we had already been waiting over 30 minutes. We found a staff member who said he would "talk to the guests" and try to get them to leave faster. We were left standing there awkwardly while he said he was "talking to the manager" and told us to just wait. This was incredibly uncomfortable -- especially for a date. Unfortunately, it didn't end there. Once we finally got settled, there was no server around for quite a while. Even though we mentioned early on that we wanted to order drinks and food, no one came. Our drinks finally arrived almost an hour later. We were playing hungry and sober the entire time. When we tried to order dinner afterward, we were told the food would take at least another 30 minutes and that we would need to eat inside. After all the delays and confusion, we decided not to order at all. This was honestly one of the most disorganized and poorly managed customer experiences I've ever encountered. For a place that markets itself as fun and social, the lack of coordination, communication, and basic service was shocking. Definitely not the experience you'd expect or want for a date night. read more

I love Topgolf in concept, but where things can go awry is in service and machine reliability. For us, service was painfully slow and we had technical issues with our bay. Service-wise, I don't think it was entirely our server's fault. Our server was polite, friendly, and got us what we ordered/requested. It just took way too long. A couple examples: (1) I don't think we got water until maybe 30-45 minutes into our two-hour visit and (2) we didn't get any napkins until maybe an hour in (and we had to ask for them). During our visit, the staff situation looked like a bit of a cluster and the servers appeared stretched thin. Machine-wise, we kept having problems getting balls to dispense and registering players correctly. Also, our bay needed a ball refill in the middle of our game. All of this led to wasted time (downtime) that we paid for. Above are the main reasons for my three-star rating. This Topgolf location in Durham opened on April 12, 2024. It's situated just off I-40 exit 282 (Page Road), between Research Triangle Park and the Raleigh-Durham airport (RDU). It's in a central location, convenient to all three Triangle cities. Currently, this is the only Topgolf location in the Triangle. There's a Drive Shack (competitor) in Raleigh, but I heard Topgolf is nicer and better than Drive Shack in general. I've never been to a Drive Shack, so I can't say from personal experience. In North Carolina, there are two other Topgolf locations in Charlotte and a new one planned for Greensboro. According to the company's press release on this location in Durham, this was the 99th outdoor Topgolf location to open globally: https://press.topgolf.com/2024-04-01-Long-Awaited-Topgolf-Durham-Opens-Friday,-April-12 I've been to two Topgolf locations in metro Atlanta, one in Nashville, and now this one in Durham. They're all built the same. They're nice. If you've never been to one, you can think of it as an expensive driving range with a bar atmosphere. A lot of people compare the experience to bowling, where you can rent a lane, bowl, enjoy food and drink, and hang out with people. It's the same at Topgolf, except more technology is involved. For example, every golf ball that is dispensed is registered to a certain player. When that ball is hit, Topgolf's system is able to keep track of where it lands for scoring purposes. The system has several games to choose from. You don't have to be good at golf to enjoy Topgolf. The games are designed for all skill levels. We had a group of six and had the most fun playing the Topgolf version of Angry Birds. Most of the folks in our group, composed of both males and females, weren't golfers and everyone seemed to enjoy Angry Birds the most. I recommend it if you have a lot of non-golfers in your group. Every player in your group has to sign up for a Topgolf account in order to play. It's $5 per person. That's one way they get you. It'd been years since my last visit to a Topgolf. I was surprised to see my membership was still active and all my games had been saved, back to when I first signed up in July 2014. For each game, it shows the date, time, type of game, Topgolf location, number of players, each player's name, and each player's score. Pretty cool. I like how all that data is saved. Games I've played with others include TopScramble, TopChip, TopShot Rookie and Advanced, and TopScore. Check out all of the games, along with descriptions, available at the Durham location here: https://topgolf.com/us/raleigh-durham/play/games/ Topgolf's prices vary depending on day and time. Friday through Sunday nights are the most expensive at $58 per hour per bay (current pricing at the time of writing this review) plus your $5 member fee if it's your first time, tax, and tip. Each bay can accommodate up to six players and each has a set of men's and women's clubs. The tip goes to your server ("Bayhost"). After you add food and drinks, Topgolf gets expensive quickly. Drinks we ordered included the Topgolf Margaritas Teremana Reposada (2x at $12 each), a Season Opener ($10) made with New Amsterdam Vodka, ginger beer, and grape juice, Blue Moon beer (2x at $6.75 each), Aperol Spritzes (2x at $12.75 each), an Espresso Martini ($12) made with Kahlua and Ketel One Vodka, and a Spiked Strawberry Lemonade ($10.50) made with Tito's Handmade Vodka. The drinks were fine. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I do think Topgolf is a bit of a racket in that the company's pricing is designed so that you'll likely have funds you paid for leftover in your account. Topgolf just keeps that money. For example, my account has had $32.50 sitting in it unused for eight-plus years.
