It’s not like it used to be, I do miss the pinball games; now it’s all ticket based games - and the ticket redeeming counter in closed (temporarily?) I would like more games less gambling, more skill based play than simply try to go through games as fast as possible to get tickets. A lot of the games broken or disabled. ….it was…..sad…. A lot of the games cost $2 to $3 a play, went through 3 play cards @ $24/card in 15 minutes….on the positive the bowling is good, affordable and the have food.

Had a great time at Shindig! 🎳🕹️ We went as a group of three adults and had a blast bowling and hanging out in the arcade. They had all my favorite arcade games, which made it even better. The place is very nice, modern, and super clean — definitely a fun spot whether you’re there to bowl, play, or just enjoy the atmosphere. We’ll be back! #Shindig #BowlingNight #ArcadeFun #CleanAndModern #GoodTimes 🎉

The absolute WORST service I have ever experienced!!! Drove over an hour to get here for a birthday party that my sister spent a lot of money for bowling, laser tag , mini golf and the arcade for 10 kids - We even loaded extra money on the arcade games for tickets and points for the kids to get prizes! When we got ready to leave THE TICKET PRIZE STORE was CLOSED - so all the money we spent and for my 3 small children the wanted a prize and so an hour drive empty handed. I will NEVER go back - I even asked the lady at desk if she could add our points and just give us a prize for them and she refused with a SMILE and said sorry it’s closed … do NOT open the ARCADE if kids can’t get a prize for their tickets they won!

The bartender was very disrespectful to multiple people tonight; leading to a discourse that made this “family friendly” place not family friendly at all. If you don’t like your job, don’t work there. But rolling your eyes at people and having an attitude for simply asking for fried pickles and a drink is absolutely insane. I know if you treated my husband and his friends that way, you definitely treated the group that way that had reacted so negatively. Better staff training is needed

OMG this place is horrible, we're in town visiting and decided to stop here for the kiddos, I done spent over 200$ for the kids and they done close the redeem tickets area whereas my kids are not able to cash in their tickets and than we're looking for the manager to get some sort of understanding here she come smelling like a hole carton of cigarettes around all these kids saying that she's not able to open the redeem area. I don't recommend anyone come to this smoke lounge if you don't live close and no good communication was horrible
