- LSLogan SOct 26, 20255.0Me and a group of guys came here to do some bowling and we had a great time. Service was amazing and the place was well kept.
- LLLuis LopezOct 25, 20251.0Was told i couldn't bring my water bottle in. I've been to restaurants, movie theaters, other bowling alleys, sports events and I have never been told I can't bring water in. My family and I simply left and will never return. Terrible customer service.
- AMAnnie MalkaOct 19, 20255.0went with two kids with challenges and played four games of fantastic fun in about an hour. Lovely lady from food area came around asking if we wanted anything as we sat there. Bowlero was able to accommodate shoes (both were odd sizes too) - the team happily added bumpers when asked. Easy to set up the game with the monitor guides. Each strike and spare had a celebratory character emerge on the screen making it more fun w a tip on how to get all the pins. The boys had a fantastic time! The lights dimmed at one point - I bet this is super fun at night. Have to acknowledge the absolute star of Bowlero Gulf Gate: Marty! What an incredibly kind, patient, above and beyond helpful, super sweet, gracious person. Marty made the entire visit an unbelievable, over the top memory we will talk about forever. Thank you!
- RGRaymond GreenOct 19, 20255.0I visit occasionally for tournaments. The house is state of the art and always clean. Marty, the manager runs a tight ship. Terry, a bartender/server will take care of all your guilty pleasures! One front desk guy needs a little work on his people skills but Marty will work on that I'm sure.
