Pros: Ambiance was very over the top, in a good way. Lot's of stuff to do and look at every which way you look. Lot's of table space looking around at a lot of TVs. I was very surprised to find beef birria pizza on a menu that was mostly just regular sports bar food. Cons: While that pizza was unique, the execution was a little questionable. Very few toppings, poorly cooked crust, and a dipping sauce that was almost more soy sauce than it was birria. Also, don't get me started on the service. The most rude bartender I've ever interacted with in my life. Tips: Come here if you're staying at one of the attached hotels.
Whirly ball was so fun! We had booked an hour of time and check-in was super fast and easy. They explained the rules to us and showed us how to operate the bumper cars and then we got to play a couple rounds. The bumper carts were comfortable to sit in, but definitely wear pants as my legs got a little bruised up from the handle bumping into me whenever I got bumped by other cars. The court is a little warm so I would wear something lighter and breathable. There is not much space to store any belongings in the court so don't bring too much in. We also got a few beers before the game. The bartenders were super nice and friendly! Beers were reasonably priced -- it was $17 for two michelob ultras and one stella.
Setting up a reservation for whirly ball was super quick and easy. I got all my questions answered over the phone with Liz! Staff was super friendly and genuine the day of as well - shoutout to Elijah. Whirly ball cars were super smooth and easy to work with. We had one unoccupied car and it didn't disrupt our game at all. Elijah was attentive to all of our needs and easygoing.
Had an awesome time at WhirlyBall Twin Cities! The staff were friendly, knowledgable, and helped keep the game on track. Whirlyball is a mix of bumper cars, lacrosse, and basketball all at once. Bumper cars are on a basketball type court and everyone has a scoop to pass and shoot a wiffle ball to score on the other team's board. The facilities were clean and well kept. Inside the arena it is hot so best to dress in lighter clothes - exercise clothes worked well.
Went to a work trip in Minnesota and Whirly Ball was listed as a team activity. I signed up and went in blind not looking up anything about it. I just knew I wanted to win lol..This ended up being a lot of fun. A mix between bumper cars and lacrosse? Either way it works. I played several games as its only 10 mins per game. I highly recommend it. It was nice doing something different and I would definitely do it again.
OMG! This place is a blast! Definitely will be back!! This place is deceivingly huge and has everything from 2 floors of whirly ball, an escape room, laser tag, bowling, and many bars to serve you! The food is really good as well! I think I spent most of the 4 hours there playing laser tag and whirly ball. First of all, what the heck is whirly ball you ask? Well imagine sitting in a bumper car, and tryin to play lacross. The object of the game is to throw the whiffle ball into the target that is as tall as a basketball hoop. Now, it is harder than it sounds but is soo much fun! You get to really see the competitive nature in everyone! The laser tag arena is also super fun! You can play teams or singles. One note, you get super sweaty running around! but you get to see where you rank on the scoreboard when you are finished and that makes people want to shoot you even more! Definitely a fun time!
Attended a birthday party - exclusively for laser tag here. We rented the space for 1 hr each round is about 7-10 minutes with a couple minutes in between to switch out players and check the score board. We arrived a few minutes before check in time to grab drinks and socialize. They did not have drink menus and when the bartender noticed me looking up the online menu on my phone he told me they don't put out the drink menus out because they don't carry all the ingredients to make the drinks listed on the site/menu. He made me some kind of fruity drink. Overall nice bar staff. Laser tag- we had a little over 20 ppl show up. It was around $350/1 hr of laser lag (~$17 per person). Outside of the arena the staff explained the rules and how things worked. The place was a bit loud with everything going on (other parties and such) but we got the gist of things. We then moved to a tiny room where the vest/laser guns were. As we were a large group we needed every vest available. Part way through the first round a few of the vest died/weren't charged so that made every round less ppl which meant less rounds for everyone to play in general. The arena was a decent size for the amount of people they allow in at a time. It was 2 stories and enough room to move around. I will say this, the first room we entered to get gear smelled REALLY bad - musty/sweat & food (the staff were eating) then when you step into the arena it smelled like pee. That part alone made me rate low because based on a lot of the vest not being charged and the smells, everything felt dirty and gross & it was hot in the arena, which made me not want to participate anymore. The vest needed to be cleaned because they smelled & who wants to put on a musty vest?! We went on a Wednesday night and it was very busy despite being a week day. They have an upstairs bar but it was closed despite how busy the place was. We needed water and had to go back downstairs to get it. The staff was nice enough to give us cups and a few pitchers to bring upstairs for our party - again great bar staff!!! I probably wouldn't go here again but the issues I had could definitely be fixed easily.
Our group of 12 family members from 23-61 had the best time on Black Friday at whirlyball. We are always on the lookout for things to do when the extended family is in town for thanksgiving so decided to give this a try. What is it:a mash up of bumper cars, track ball played on a small basketball court How it works: -5 v 5 -red v yellow -games are 9 min so we subbed in and out -scoring is automatic -fun for all adults -lots of different strategies-defense? Offense? Blocking? Hide by the goal? We booked 90 min but the standard is an hour. Looked like they had about three courts, we were upstairs. I did later find a couple of bruises in odd spots on knees and hips and you have to sign a waver. You get instructions before and steer with a sort of joy stick that is easier than the complicated description but once you start doing it you'll get the hang of it quickly. Note-you really have to hit the exact center of the basketball backboard sized target to score-no mulligans in this game!
Whirlyball is like playing lacrosse & basketball on bumper cars. They had several parties while I was there, so it was a little busy. There is, also, a bar, laser tag and bowling. So, something for everyone to do. This is a great team sport for families, coworkers, and friends. Doesn't look like it, but the competition can get fierce. It could, also, be a great ice breaker. While this game looks simple, it is challenging. I didn't scored any points, but I gave a couple of assists. If I'm in an area, again, where this is offered, I will definitely be playing this, again.
WHERE'S MY SOUR CREAM? I love me some condiments and I ordered extra sour cream. I didn't get any sour cream? We were staying at the hotel next door and opted for a late dinner from Whirly. We easily placed the order over the phone and my husband walked over to pick it up. He said the place was bumping inside! I have to say- I had chicken nachos and the portion was large! It was a little dry and they forgot my sour cream! The avocado was tasty. My husband said he enjoyed having a drink here while he waited- he enjoyed the people watching.
We always have so much fun here! The space is so big and open it's great for big gatherings. We love coming here to celebrate any kind of event. 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! read more

This was so fun!! I'd never played before so was excited to try it out. We attended for a friend's bday party so I can't speak to pricing since they reserved a court, but it was great to have the court to ourselves for two hours! 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. read more
We of course ended up here because we were staying at the hotel next door. As a tourist, we had to check 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. read more

I swear this place popped up out of nowhere! I'm super stoked that there is a new place to hangout at in Bloomington. What a fun concept this place is! When I went last week it was still in the process of being set up, at the time there was no arcade. There is bowling and progressive bowling, I can't explain it but you use bumpers they light up different colors and you score points that way? Something like that :) 2 bars, a kitchen. Lots of nice seating options, an outdoor deck. I think rooftop seating? And Whirly Ball, I'd say it's a combination of bumper cars, lacross & basketball. Looks like a fun challenge! So many bartenders, never waited for anything, quick service! I had the trio of sliders, cuties & yummy! Husband had a spicy burger with the house fries and seasoned dip, I tried a couple & that dip rocks! , I want to get a group of peps together and go back soon. read more

Looked pretty slow and wanted a quick bite! Looks like I stopped in just in time. The Pizza was amazing the chicken just a little dry but good over all. And the nachos appetizer was way more than we could eat so plenty of food vs value! Quiet and relaxed atmosphere at least at the time of my visit. Give them a shot! read more
