I attended my God brother's daughters birthday party recently. I mainly played pool and dined at their cafe since the party was catered to children. It's a pretty big place and has plenty of games for adults and kids alike

It’s the worst experience our family ever have！This employee with grey cloth is very mean and impolite. She looks angry and unfriendly. We won the claw machine and picked one we like. She said can’t pick and just grab the one in claw machine and give to us very very impolitely. But actually it’s the same toy in the same machine.
We think if she is racism! This happened around 8:55pm, April 16. I strongly recommend to check the camera to see how she treat us !
We spent more than 2000 in round one. Every time the employee will ask us “ which one you pick” and happy for you to win the prize. Don’t know why will hire this person to ruining the reputation of round 1! Will not come anymore ! That’s a very bad memory! Don’t recommend anybody come to either except the store discipline the employee like her !!!! I am really angry but my husband stop me to argue with her because we have two babies! Otherwise I will not just let that happen to me! !

I spent about $120 and won several adorable plushies that made the experience totally worth it. The employee is helpful, the claw machines are well-maintained and have a great variety of prizes to choose from. It’s not just about winning but also the excitement of the game itself that keeps you coming back for more. If you’re looking for a fun and lively arcade experience, Round 1 is the perfect spot

Come on down to Round1 Bowling & Arcade. Part of the Broadway Common Mall, you can have some fun after you had done some shopping at IKEA, Target, or one of the mall's many stores! A large parking lot is behind the mall, divided for IKEA customers, Target customers, and Round1 customers. However, parking can get full fast, so come early!

If you plan on doing the arcade, I recommend scoping out the arcade first. You should determine whether you want to focus on the claw machines or on the arcade games. You can do both, but I do recommend focusing on one section at a time. This can also help determine how much credit to add to your play card. I recommend doing at least $50, so you can earn one of the free giveaways. There are two, every month or so it is different! If you ever need assistance, feel free to ask the staff. My group had some technical difficulties with the claw machines and the staff were very helpful! The plush are winnable, you just need to find the easy targets.

Downstairs, you can find bowling, karaoke, billiards, ping pong, and darts. My group only tried the bowling. One hour of play will give you approximately six 10-frame games. Meaning if you are in a group of 4, you can play around 1.5 games before your time runs out. My only complaint is that there are limited amount of bowling balls. Granted, the bowling balls may have been on the other side or being polished, but my group was only able to find a ball each. While that is alright, it did cut into our time as we needed to wait for our only ball to return before we could bowl again.

Nonetheless, this place is fun and entertaining. The area is large enough that it does not get too crowded with people, but you may need to wait your turn on several of the claw machines or arcade games. Don't lose your play card as they can hold your extra credit and tickets. Feel free to cash out a prize at their prize store or save it for next time.

I came here with friends to have a good time bowling. We arrived, paid for shoes, and an hour of play. About 35 minutes into the game, the manager approached us and reminded us to wear the bowling shoes at all times, which we agreed to. However, my friend would occasionally take them off because they were making his feet itch. Five minutes later, a short employee came up to us and aggressively insisted that we wear the shoes; he was very unprofessional. The reason my friend didn’t want to wear the shoes was because they smelled really bad. The manager did mention that they 'spray them’ but they still smelled bad. The short employee “Ricky” did also turn off our games in the middle. He really tried fighting us lol
