I went there with my sister the evening on 1/11/25 for my Birthday and had so much fun. We bowled and did Laser Tag and both were so awesome. We had a blast. There is an office right by the entrance that had which I assume was a manager. I waved and smiled as I walked in and she gave me a go to heck look. Long dark hair. Not sure what that was about and not cool but other than that, well definitely be back. Recommended if you're looking for fun with family or friends.
I absolutely love this place! It's a go to! It's perfect for a fun family activity. Also for a fun date night. Their food is so good no matter what I get, definitely worth the money. I would say the price for the activities is pretty reasonable. Bowling there is super fun!!
Have not come here to eat before, and had low expectations. Completely blown away by the value and quality of the group tray we ordered. Everything was prepared properly. The food was delicious. Staff were surprisingly attentive for a place that does not have wait staff. They also accommodated us bringing in a birthday cake and provided plates. Would highly recommend for group activity nights out.
Broken games and below average bowling. The first 5 games we went to took our points and didn't start the game. Found 1 fish game that we used majority of our points on until they fixed the wizard of oz coin game. Go somewhere else if you don't want to hassle about losing money to games that don't work. We had to bother a service worker 4-5 times to get our lost points back. The bowling area immediately wreaked of feet. Inside of my bowling ball was sticky. The tables in the bowling area took up 2/3 of the
Amazing establishment for family fun. My son decided he wanted to be brave and tight rope climb the jungle gym upon getting up there realized how scary it actually was Zhane went to him and guided him through the course. Even with little confidence and on the verge of tears he was able to cheer him on to keep going. This was the first time Dallas has done this activity and we are grateful that even though it was scary Zhane made our son want to still try this again next time. Also another shout out to Jona
Great place for a fun night out. Did bowling. A lane cost us 40$ and you could play multiple rounds. Laser tag was 10$ per person. There are many games to play, however I expected there to be more restaurants
Great venue! Stopped here on a day trip with our two boys, they had a blast. We came right after they opened and almost had the place to ourselves! Courtney was our waitress and she was great! Would definitely come back.
The arcade section was fun, as was the ropes course. My only complaint, because this place was solid (and fun), is that when my family and I tried to use the counter (in the clearly indicated line) the attendant was gone for about 12 minutes. Normally, I would presume that folks are actually hustling, and perhaps there's something pressing I don't know. Not in this case... I made eye contact with two employees whom I tried to flag down to ask if maybe we were there at a bad moment, but after acknowledgement
Our service was Iyanna and she was amazing. Best service and super nice waitress. Our drinks were always topped off and she made sure we were doing well. My five year old loved her. Next time I come back I am asking for her to be our server again.
As a team building experience for my Tulsa team we decided to try Main Event. We had a blast with a good game of bowling followed up by hours in the arcade area, finishing up with a couple rounds of pool. We decided to forgo the gravity and laser tag activities. The staff were super friendly and attentive. They even took my food allergies into account and accommodated me to be included where I wouldn't have to miss out. If I had to ding anything on this it over this experience, we had to pay for 10 people t
Had my son's birthday party here today. We got the teen all access party. It was amazing. A couple of machines were not reading our cards but a guy name Mike who seemed like a manager was very helpful and made the party a blast. My only complaint is with the teen party the kids got a buffet of food during bowling but once we were done they had to take the leftover food back to the kitchen and throwaway and we couldn't keep it. In today's economy and considering we technically paid for it i wasn't a fan of t
Had my kiddos birthday today and Tyler was the host. He made sure everything looked great, set up and ready to go for the party and our guests. It was genuinely a stress free event and as a parent, I really couldn't ask for more. My only complaint is for Main Event management. When I booked the event, I paid a deposit but when I paid the reminder of the balance, that amount wasn't factored into the suggested tip. Tip suggestions were only based on the remaining balance due. The general public may not take
We came to kick off summer fun, but it was hardly fun. The food area was very dirty, along with tables. We moved onto games and we counted 11 games that were out of order and or took our credits without functioning or giving credits back. Normally not a big deal, but because this place is so small it left us limited to the same games over and over. We left pretty frustrated and disappointed. Next time I'll just make the drive to Dave and Busters.
Courtney was fabulous! She was as so nice and helped us out! Would 10/10 recommend finding her if you need help at main event!
I had a mixed experience at Main Event Tulsa. While the activities were a lot of fun?laser tag was exciting, and bowling was a great time?the service in the dining area left a lot to be desired. Despite it being a fairly slow night, our waitress took an unusually long time to check on our table, which made the dining experience frustrating. The food itself was okay, but the slow service definitely took away from the overall enjoyment. That said, if you're going for the entertainment, it's a solid spot for
We came here to enjoy a family birthday night and the atmosphere was perfect! Also Larry and Ms Tanya (dining) were super sweet and thoughtful! FIVE STARS!?????
We came for the Veterans Day promotion and it was amazing! They were so kind and gave us a 30 min unlimited play card and he got a free burger! The games were fun and food was really good too!
Our server Courtney did an amazing job! She was great getting our food and drinks out on time and she was so incredibly sweet! The food was also very good
This place is so great! Came here for a birthday party. The pizza was really yummy and my son had a blast with all the games. Definitely coming back.
Did not eat on this recent visit, but it was fine last time I was here. Like upscale bowling alley food. Many games don't work or are dysfunctional. Many basketball games that don't keep score, air hockey pucks that come to a dead stop in the middle of the table, kung fu panda has pads that don't respond, batman racing game has a screen that intermittently goes blank, among other things. Vr headsets are very uncomfortable. There is a twister on the back that lets you adjust the size, but it comes loose on
Great place for parties! Plenty of things to do for all ages. Shout out to Morgan for her exceptional customer service. This place wouldn't be the same without her.
I attended this location as part of a large field trip. We brought two bus loads of youth to attend for 2-3 hours during a weekday. Arcade: there are all kinds of games as you can see from photos. I gave my points to a young person doing the quarter-pusher deal where you drop them in and a shelf is moving forward and backwards. He was able to basically quadruple our tickets/tokens/whatever so I went to the prize shop to get some knick-knacks for my kids. Food/ Drink: Full bar available, they have a gelato
Had a party of 9 and the venue was clean, food was above average, we did have one mishap but it was likely due to inexperience. I will definitely go back.
I took my son and his friend for my son?s 14th birthday and everything was great, except the employees. More than once the boys were treated poorly by being yelled at and being spoken down to. They still had fun but wanted to leave 30 minutes before we had to because of the way they were treated. I saw an employee in the doorway of the laser tag entrance yell at them and point them out because they wanted to ask how to sign up to play. They're kids. Be kind.
Great way for the kids to get out energy and all have fun for a decent price! I took ages 6-14.
My family and I visited this place today and we will not return. There is no communication between the workers. The gravity course was supposed to open at 11 and at almost noon I was still being told it was closed. I went and found someone else to get more information and they assured me it opened at 11 but said he would go find the manager. The manager told me his employees were misinformed! So terrible management I'm assuming?? Asking about laser tag after all this mess wasn't any better. One employees hy
Very fun place to have a birthday party at. Staff was doing their best to keep up with the parties leaving and coming. Everyone seemed happy to be there. Restaurant area was under staffed with the amount of people there to eat. Over all good experience.
The food was good. The service wasn't. More than half the games aren't working and earning tickets is a waste of time and energy. Save money and have more fun and go to Dave and busters!
Although this entertainment venue has been in Tulsa for several years now, today was our first time visiting. My family and I visited Main Event on a Monday night, which was a discount night for all you can play wristbands. The attendants at the front door as well as at the service counter were great at explaining the process and made us feel informed and welcome. The children enjoyed themselves with the ropes course, laser tag, billiards and lots of games. The restrooms were clean and we're equipped with t
Our first time at the location and while it was fun and the kids had a blast we were surprised at how dirty it was. The jump pads have a layer of dirt and look like they haven't been scrubbed in months, top of the slide had a visible layer of dust, and small trash on the sides of the walkways. We also came right when they opened and were the first people here. It looks like the place has been a little neglected for a while.
I can't speak for the rest of it, but the arcade was a poor experience. It's small and pricey and several of the games don't work properly (but will still take your credits). Took my kids twice, but we're done with it now.
Tyler was so incredible during my grandsons birthday today. The food has made me incredibly sick but Tyler is not responsible for the food. I ate part of a burger, a pretzel bite with cheese, and a bite of pizza so Im unsure what made me this sick. Thankful that TYLER made the birthday party run so smoothly.
My family and I came to celebrate my son's 9th birthday. We attempted to play 5 separate games that were not working and just took our credits. Yes we informed an employee. He just said thanks for informing him. One game literally cut off while we were using it. (Caught on video.) The candy we got in exchange for points expired May and April 2024. Almost an entire year ago. I would never return here.
Took our grandson for pizza and laser tag. The girl working at the pizza counter was helpful and kind. Pizza was greasy but good. Went next to purchase our passes for laser tag, etc. and the girl working the counter was also great - helpful in explaining options etc. We had a fun night!
The place looks like a lot of fun and a lot of is to be had, but... Many of the games were broken beyond belief and were still allowing people to spend their money on them. Bowling was totally fun. Ordered a drink and the attending staff never brought it.
Main Event is a lot better than Andi's Bs. A lot more games work. The food was good. My wife and I took our grandson, and we each ordered a kid's meal and they were a good size pizzas.
We had their bacon cheese burgers plain and were the best burgers we've had in a long time. Tater tots were good as well. Also had the family feast; 2) chicken strips w/ fries & 1) chicken strips w/ macaroni & cheese. There were 2 adults & 3 teens.
Don't go to this place. This is a long review so buckle up. My mother-in-law bought my two sons each a $50 gift card to go there, so we decided to go at 6:30pm on 1/4/25. As soon as we got there we wanted to eat dinner, so we waited at the hostess stand for about 5 minutes waiting for one to show up. After being seated we waited another 10 minutes for a server to come to our table. When she did, we started to place our order, but my wife had a question about one of the menu items, and the waitress didn't kn
It was so nice of the Main Event to put on a free event last night for end of school bash. My boys and I had so much fun. Kids and adults will have a blast. Very friendly staff. Clean facility. Perfect lay out of the different activities you can do Bowling, Pool, Shuffle Board, Virtual Reality, Ropes course, Laser tag, Arcade games, Food area and a bar area. And do not forget to try their sundae that could feed 10 people...joking but literally it is huge!
Great place for kids to run wild and game it up plus there were fun games for adults to join in on as well. There was a huge assortment of arcade games, a pool hall, bowling alleys, and a bunch of VR simulations. Sensory overload for sure when you walk in for the first time but one you get your bearings, there is a lot of fun to be had. The staff was wearing masks but didn't see much sanitizing going on. I know it could be difficult for a place like this but not seeing the games being cleaned down after eac
Could not recommend any less, you're better off going to dave&busters where the service/activities actually work. Service was terrible and most of the arcade machines didn't even work. After the arcade I tried going bowling and even that didn't want to work properly.
Food is good and the bowling is fine. It's $6 for mac and cheese which you won't get for 20 minutes. Which I ate in 5 bites Overpriced and a good amount of the games don't work right
Nobody answers the phone. Website gives you the run around about pricing for simple questions like how much is the bowling? Looks great but seriously nobody needs 12 paragraphs of nonsense gibberish about bowling we need the rates, the cost....."starts at $15.99 for birthday packages" does not answer squat. Do better.
My server Courtney was very nice and my food was amazing as usual. The atmosphere is great and Laser Tag is the goat
??Today was the Celebration?? for my?? daughter's 15th birthday!! She chose to have it at.... ?? ????MAIN EVENT!!! ?????? ???? It turned out FANTASTIC!! ****THANK YOU KYLIE AND RYAN, our Personal Party Hostesses. They were AMAZING!! And everything turned out perfect!! Everybody had an absolute BLAST, here!! Thank you MAIN EVENT!!!
Every time we go, it is very clean and fun! The workers are always nice, and happy to help with any questions. The food is always fresh and delicious as well! Great location to spend some quality time!
2nd trip to main event. We planned my sons birthday party through the main event. The party went off perfect without any issues. The pizza was awesome, the birthday desserts were a huge hit. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. We of course went during the covid times yet everything was well laid out and fun for all. The boys played laser tag and arcades. They loved the virtual reality games the most and spend tons of time doing that. The staff was night and day different this trip. We will definitely
Our server Courtney was really nice and attentive, the food was great, and the bowling was super fun!
I could go on all day about how great this Main Event is because the employees there make it great. From the time you enter to the time you leave, it's all enjoyable and fun. The place is clean and inviting. There are two particular employees, I wrote their names down but have since lost the paper. One is the woman at the register with the red hair. Give that girl a raise! My word, she works hard and NEVER makes me feel like I'm a problem. She's helpful, kind and really plays a big part in the best experien
Great staff. Very helpful very friendly. Had a birthday party for my 13 year old grandson and everybody had a blast. So much so that now my granddaughter wants to have all of her parties there and she's only eight. If you're wanting to have a fun time for family or friends I highly recommend this location.
Best place in Tulsa for games and great food! Ask for Courtney, she was super nice and very helpful!
Great place for the birthday party ??
Great atmosphere and game selections. Hopefully, escape rooms might be added to this location.
Hubby's job brought out the building, so we were able to enjoy all the festivities with minimal people. Southern Glazer provided drink tickets all you can eat Taco and Pizza buffet, Cake and did I mention drinks!!! This was such an awesome experience. They have a lot of games, not just for the kiddo, but for the adults as well. We had a blast, running from game to game with practically no wait. We did not get a chance to do the Laser Tag, but are looking forward to bringing our kids and whooping good on the
Its a great place to meet and gather. There is a restaurant ans they serve good pizza and ok wings. There is a bar too, you can have a beer or two while watching your kids. The place has many diffrent activities and games for all ages. There is pool, air hockey tables, Bowling lanes, Laser tags and arcades of all kinds. Its guaranteed to have a blast at the Main Event in Tulsa. There is a lot of people all over the place helping and guiding customers, getting you drinks depending where you are at, over all
First time going and really had a great family night out. Expensive but had tons of fun and well worth it.
Only giving it a 4, because some machines were down. Other than that, the atmosphere is fun and the pricing isn't just too bad!
Atmosphere is terrific, food is sensational.thete is Bowling, Lazer Tag, an arcade, VR plus more. Definitely get unlimited wrist band! 28 bucks!
There's something for everyone here. Pool, bowling, arcade, etc. You can bring the whole family and everyone can play together or split off and do different things together. Staff was friendly
Monday nights are super busy . Service was a 4 just because they were so busy . They keep apologizing but I told them it's ok yall are busy no rush on my part.
85% of the arcade games didn't work, but they sure took the points anyway. Sat down to order and not a single person came to take our order for 30 mins. When we finally got to order, they were out of plates for our pizza. $50 for pizza and no plates. None of the workers seemed to know what was going on.
Had our son's 7th birthday party there yesterday. We didn't book anything as it was already full, however Heather at the front went way above and beyond to get us setup with tables and made sure we had all we needed. Honestly she's the only person working there that even helped or spoke to us. The boys had fun the pizza was good and games were great. But again, Heather was exceptional and should be the manager of that place. Thanks Heather!
Ashley at the front desk was very kind and helped explain all of the different options that main event offers! We also had a drink that was also fantastic!
Great place. Lots of things to do. The bowling is great and the VR is amazing! It's not cheap but you will have a great time spending your money!
I did a family get-together today here at this spot with my nephews and nieces because some of us were out of town and leaving tomorrow. We gathered because we lost a love one, and wanted to take this moment to spend with one another. It was last minute, and they were very accommodating to have a reservation set up for our group of 17. This was literally a few ours before our reservation time. They were empathetic and made our stay a breeze. We didnt have any trouble and they were very accommodating with so
Customer service is horrible at the pizza place, the lady was so rude, overwhelmed I'm assuming with all the field trip kids, but if you're going to be rude because it's busy you shouldn't be working at a place like this. The lady running the cash register needs some customer service training. She wouldn't sell pizza by the slice to me because it wasn't the weekend, but I was with the field trip, made no sense. I would never come back here.
Ashley in the front was such an incredible associate who had outstanding customer service and was extremely helpful. The main event itself was fun, had great food, and such an amazing atmosphere will definitely be back to this one. Thanks again Ashley for making it even more enjoyable
We did the bowling. It took our server forever to come take our drink order. Our drinks were brought to us then we ordered an appetizer (cheesy breadsticks) it literally took almost an hour to receive them! Same horrible service at the bar! No organization at all!
Bowling ?? something I have fun doing. Just isn't the same when it cost 40 bucks for one lane per hour plus 5 bucks for adult shoes and 4 for kids. 200+ spent on 1 hour of fun and appetizers. Wanted to play lasertag with the kids but that was 10 per person, 70 for our number of people we had. Other than the outrageous prices, we had fun and the food and drinks was good. Pay attention to your Bowling time though. The time on your game isn't supposed to start until you actually put names in and begin. Our
Ashley was very helpful explaining since it was our first time at Main Event. We got to play air hockey while we waited for Laser Tag all while our dates were hanging out in the photo booth. Afterwards we enjoyed their entrees which tasted fresh out of the kitchen.
?Is there any reason why you eat at a restaurant where a waitress would say never be rude to someone who handles your food ?? Took the family to Tulsa location after church as an early birthday present for my grandson. About 1Pm on September 8. Food side was not busy. Waitress was standing around not taking care of tables waited 20 minutes for drink refill. She took items to pretty sure the only other active table on our side. As she went back by I told her whoever was taking care of drinks wasn't doing th
Great place to take the kids. Been at least 2-3 times so far. Everything's always been clean. All the games have been in working order. Food was good as well. Friendly staff.
We love Main Event. It is a great time to relax and have fun. The kids get to play games and bowl. The food is great along with the service.
This location is consistently great! We have been pleased with the food, drinks, and service every time we go. Ample staff, tons of games for youngsters, adults, and families. Always be prepared to spend a hundo.
Everything was great. Some of the staff could learn some personal hygiene, though. My nephew had a great time.
My large family had a great time at this place for my nieces birthday party. Morgan?s customer service was AAA+! She's a real asset to the establishment.
Customer Service is fantastic. This is a very family-friendly place. Always make time to come here when we travel to Tulsa. Also.. La Bella?s Pizza is amazing!
The people that run this place are absolutely incredible! They really go above and beyond your expectations to cater to your experience, and something like that is increasingly valued in a business as it's increasingly difficult to find. They had everything laid out and ready for my group when we arrived, check-in took no time at all. The banquet food was perfectly prepared and tasted amazing. They went so far out of their way to make everybody happy, it was much more than anyone was expecting! The only th
Had an impromptu birthday party on a Sunday afternoon. With varying shoe sizes, timeframe, and multiple game cards Morgan made our experience super easy, and seamless!
Didn't eat there but had a great time for my first time bowling great staff and the place is a vibe!
?I came here on my school?s band trip and we had lots of fun! Laser tag was really fun and most of us walked away with cool prizes, me and my friends enjoyed a HUGE ice cream thing and overall had a good time.?
First time.it was nice open and refreshing not as crowded as the parking lot.bowling was a long waiting list. Mondays they have some special so that's why we went. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is because no one explains anything I know that sounds petty but when we ordered food at bowling I was bugging the lady everytime I had a question,but finally she said you know you can't just do this she wasn't rude but she sure was annoyed anyways I'm not a dummy I figured things out no different than
Great atmosphere this place is so awesome bring the whole family
My sons gun didn't work my wife had told the guy and the guy told her it was working. When my daughter and I found them i started noticing his gun was a different color then when I told the guy then he said grab a new gun. My son played for like 2 min and game over. I wanted to say something about it but my wife insisted that we just leave since that guy's attitude was trash i didn't want to make things worse. The games all worked the food was fresh and good. It made my son cry, it was his first laser tag o
Courtney is awesome. She was so nice and so helpful.
Good place to enjoy.. We enjoy ti the max the laser and gravity ropes. Only thing we didn't like was the crazy evil videos they had in the screen at the bowling and Music was way too loud.
This place was cool because it had a lot of games and stuff to do and the chocolate gelato was my favorite. The only bad thing is the ladder tag room wasn't very big and not very well thought out.
Food was okay, the donut holes were great, but the new serving system should really be changed. The waitress takes the order but there are different servers instead of the waitresses serving food, and they got every single plate mixed up between different tables. Food was not worth all the stress we had to go through when reordering. At the arcade, the Spongebob coin pusher game was jammed up two times within the hour we spent at the arcade, one of us had a card that stopped working at the hames despite hav
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
Yes, pool tables in arcades remain a fantastic draw in 2025! Games like 8-ball or 9-ball offer tactile, skill-based fun that blends strategy and precision. Modern tables feature smooth felt, responsive cues, and vibrant designs, enhancing the classic experience. Arcades foster a social vibe with casual matches or competitive tournaments, appealing to all skill levels. Unlike digital games, pool’s physicality—lining up shots, feeling the cue’s weight—keeps it timeless.
Yes, virtual reality (VR) games in arcades are a top attraction in 2025! Titles like Beat Saber and Half-Life: Alyx deliver immersive thrills with cutting-edge headsets, motion tracking, and responsive controllers. High-resolution displays and spatial audio create heart-pounding experiences, from slashing rhythms to battling zombies. Arcades feature multiplayer VR zones and tournaments, fostering lively communities. VR booths are regularly packed, proving their captivating, next-level gameplay makes them a must-try arcade experience.
Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
