It was a great experience! The place was clean and fun and the staff was friendly and attentive. Let's talk about how good the food is!!! Our family was there celebrating my moms 70th birthday (she rolled a few strikes 🥳), and we all 10 of us had different dishes, which we all gave 9/10!
The queso is a bit thin for my liking, but the flavor is definitely there!
I'm not a drinker, but my family really loved the margaritas, long islands, and pina coladas, to name a few.
We are looking forward to going back whenever we're in Colorado or St. Louis.
If you live near a Main Event, GO!!! Grab some family and/or friends and make some memories, like how my fit 50yr old sister in law rolls the ball like a toddler 🤣🤣!!!
In short, I think it's definitely better than Dave and Busters!!!
A few of us ladies got together for bowling and a bite this morning. We had a lot of fun. The food was AWESOME! for an amusement place. The tots were yummy! 😋😋😋 I had the lava burger and it was ginormous. Waayyyyy too big for my mouth. So, I opted to eat it with fork and knife. Not a huge fan of the creamy cheese and they should use whatever they season the tater tots with to season the burger, but overall it was a tasty sandwich.
Bowling was fun and good for casual bowling. The score podium was a little too close to the lane for more serious bowling, but... we came for fun. 🤪 They took our scores down a bit too fast, not even enough time for us to take a picture of them 🤨 but, again, we had fun.
Our waitress was sweet and appropriately attentive.
We ate at the restaurant first. Food was really good. I loved the Caesar salad with chicken.
The staff is so friendly and helpful.
The arcade is clean and all the games worked.
Friendly staff, great deals based on days/times, awesome bowling section, and good food!
But the arcade is lacking, several games were broken down and not alot of variety in comparison to other Main Events that ive visited.
But overall a great place!
Soon to be known as "Main Event," they have already changed for the better in bits and pieces thus far.
The old game cards will need to be traded in for an exchange of the newer cards involving their new system which charges less for the arcades allowing more bang for your buck. A few new arcades are already present as well.
I look forward to the new operation to see what they have to offer, considering the fact that The Summit was doing a fine job. I hope to see that nothing changes for the worst.
We came here to play pool. Tables we level. Felt was slow, but it was still a good time. We had some good drinks, and it wasn't overly crowded, so we could enjoy our time with our family. They have a great bar area. I was surprised it wasn't busier.
We came on Sunday night to celebrate a birthday with friends and it was an extremely satisfying experience because of the outstanding service we always receive from Jason. (Hippy love guy) He always provides an inviting environment which makes everyone enjoy their experience even more. He’s very diligent and attentive when it comes to his sections and provides the services worth writing a review about.
We had a blast for a mom-daughter date for her 5th birthday! Mike, Tim, Ethan, Sarah, and others were so sweet and kind, they really made an effort to make her feel special on her big day! 💛 Definitely coming back soon!
Very friendly family business. You will definitely find something you would like there. They have laser tag restaurant, bowling arcades and a room to turn your tickets in for prices. The restaurant I would recommend. I have not done any of the other things yet
Josh at the customer service desk was rude. First he made us wait forever at the desk and took over five minutes to even acknowledge us (“hold on”), then after we finally get to our lane, with our first time being there, we were not instructed how anything over there worked in terms of tables. So we placed my bag on a table, Josh brings people over and IN FRONT OF THEM, asked “is this your bag?” I said yes and he said “can you like…move it?” And once I did he sat the guests there. He was rude and maybe should’ve educated us that tables were designated for certain lanes (which the tables weren’t labeled). Not a fan of that guy and needs training on how customer service works.
Other than that, the server for our lane was great, the bar drinks were great and the arcade was fun!! Though 4.95 per person for bowling shoes??? And 3.00 to ACTIVATE an arcade card??? Their prices are a bit….ridiculous. Still had (mostly) a good time.
A friend and I decided to take our kids to The Main Event for some bowling and video games. Just after arrival, we had an unfortunate interaction with another group that was a few lanes over. This event, brought my daughter to tears. The amazing crew saw my daughter crying and immediately asked what had happened. The manager, Brendan, then came over to try to put a smile back on her face. He explained that he wanted us to have a wonderful experience while there and that tears shouldn't be involved. He checked with me and then proceeded to turn her tears into a huge grin that didn't go away all day. Days later, she still talks about Brendan and the staff. We already loved spending our summer days here, but we will most definitely be returning with friends again.
We had a lot of fun as a family here. We made a reservation online and the only lanes available were the couch lanes, which were very expensive for only 3 people. I would not recommend food either as there is food all around the area that is cheaper and tastes better. We also went to the arcade. You no longer get tickets for winning games, just points added to the card, which my child thought was awesome. Overall we had a very fun night here.
I had a great time as did my kids and their friends. The staff was helpful and friendly, accommodating with honoring coupons and fixing a malfunctioning game. My only inconvenience was the few moments I had to wait a while for assistance.
Fun place, but the service is kinda lacking.
1) it takes a while to find/get a server.
2) Food comes out fast, but the problem is the bar. There are 4 people at the bar, but it takes 5-10 minutes just to be acknowledged and another 15 mins just to get a beer...

We rented a lane for 2 hours and had a great time. Wait staff was attentive and the food was pretty good. The smothered tots were enormous and ended up reheating half the next night at home. It was easy to find bowling balls that fit for five of us.
The line to check in or pay for shoes was a bit jumbled, but it went ok.
I would gladly come back for bowling or other adventures.
We've been here numerous times when it was The Summit, but our first time to The Main Event was 3 weeks ago. We were greeted and taken care of very well by all staff. My coupons for free 90 minutes of bowling from the Summit was honored with no problem... THANK YOU DENNIS! He remembered giving it to me, even though it had been over a year, and made sure we were taken care of... even the following week when just us parents came back to play! My only complaint... PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL GROUND BEEF FOR THE NACHOS AND THE FUNNEL FRIES!!!! The new taco meat isn't very good! And the donut holes were burnt.
