Palace Social

This place was pretty laidback and chilled . We enjoyed our time here. It was clean the food was 10/10 super fun. Lemon drops was 6/10 need more LIKKAAA lol overall I give it 10/10 can't beat a good chilled laid back atmosphere either cool ppl.

We went here right before they closed. (We didn't even think about them closing that early.) They were so gracious to us. The servers were amazing! The food was so good!! We will definitely be going back. Next time we will be more conscious of their closing time.

Place is nice.. customer service from management to workers... not good. No one smiled.. you have to look for people to order.. large group and they just put food down on a table.. unfortunately no one especially management seemed to be trained in being friendly.. Was asked if we were ok, but it was very "im just doing my job" approach.. Bowling was pricey, and how food is charged was different. Food prices expensive, so probably not going back... Such a nice entertainment space for very subpar custom

I am unable to rate the food as I did not dine at the establishment. However, the staff provided exceptional service, demonstrating attentiveness and politeness. The venue offers numerous activities and possesses a welcoming, cozy ambiance. My only concern was the cleanliness of the seating; the soiled cushions detract from the overall quality and should be addressed promptly.

Excellent place to take the kids. The staff is trained well and very hospitable, plus they smile A LOT. The management is super friendly with the desire to guide towards the experience YOU want. Paul, Ash, and Chance are the best! The games are well maintained with the arcade technicians always there to help. It's not a cheap area. However, the value is there at every aspect of their business. Keep focusing on the customers and they will keep coming back. Thank you.

We rented out Palace Social for a party w/ 70 kids and 60 adults. Everyone had the best time. We did a buffet lunch & passed appetizers?both delicious. Everyone loved bowling, games & 3D entertainment. I loved the amazing attentive service both day of & during my many planning meetings & calls. Exceeded expectations!!

We came here for a company party and had the place all to ourselves. They have bowling, arcade, multi-sport simulator bays, Omni VR arena, and XD dark ride motion simulator. The food was good and the drinks were strong. Their staff were very attentive and friendly. I will definitely come back again.

The inside looks nice however, $60 per hour for bowling and $8 shoe rentals really tanks the vibe of thid place. Nobody approached me and my spouse to take our orders and were thirsty. The bowling alley is truly sluggish and heavy for no reason and left the lane early due to how bad the lanes were. They weren't properly greased and were hollow leading to a subpar bowling experience. Would not recommend at all.

My company hosted a corporate event at Palace Social. Bowling, appetizers, 4D Theatre. It was a BLAST! Beautiful atmosphere! Very clean and classy! Highly recommend!! A Great Place for Team Building Events!

Very enjoyable atmosphere and a fun way to spend time with friends/family. The wait was about 2 hours on a Friday night, however time flew by since they have a diner inside. We ate while we waited for our lane. Everything was clean, the staff was friendly. The bowling is a little on the expensive side (about $60hr) however, everyone had a great time. They also have an arcade, pool table and a foosball table.

My son recently had his birthday party at Palace Social and it was phenomenal. Our event coordinator, Erin, was on point. She made the entire process incredibly easy and created a custom VIP party. The assistant general manager, David, was awesome. He personally made sure our experience was solid from start to finish. Amber, our party host, was attentive and friendly. From bowling to playing the sports simulator and games in the arcade, Palace Social is the perfect party place. The kids loved the XD Dark

Please watch the video I have attached. This places incredibly mismanaged the lady who is trying to manage the bowling. She has no idea what she's doing. She put my name down and she is giving it to other people rather than texting me and letting me know that the lane is ready. There are two lanes which are empty in the video and they're not giving it to anybody when I made the video. It was 20 minutes by the time I wrote the review now it's another 20 minutes so for the last 40 minutes, they're not giving

The Houston Texans hosted an end of season party at the palace Social and we loved it. The staff was great to work with (Joanna, Nikiah) and they were on top of all of our needs. We would recommend this place to anyone and plan to be back in the future!

We were greeted with friendliness as soon as we entered. Our hostess, Joanna introduced us to the folks that were taking care of us for the day and had our initial order of food available and waiting. They had a section set aside along with our name displayed for eating as well as 2 reserved bowling lanes. It was a fun event that our entire team enjoyed. I really enjoyed the retro vibe. Next time we will spend some time in the arcade area.

This was my first time hearing of this spot and visiting. It is a nice atmosphere mainly for younger individuals however they do have adult fun here. From the bar to bowling and a desert bar. I will most definitely be back and I do recommend this location for a quick getaway to relax.

Had an absolute blast on my visit. The manager was very accommodating and promptly addressed the concerns of my guests. The lemon lime wings were delicious and we had so much fun bowling and riding the virtual roller-coaster. My friends and I will definitely be back soon for another night of ?? and ??.

Pretty neat place. I think I had too high of expectations for the arcade though... The overall setup and size of the ?Palace? was nice and big. Food was priced reasonably except some items being in the mid-high twenties( I just thought it was odd for an arcade place is all since I was expecting cheap bar food.) The food wasnt bad. I had the veggie lasagna and macaroni which was fantastic. The bar had a pretty decent collection of beers and liquors. The table service wasn't the best but I suppose it's becaus

i give this place 1 star for many reasons, one, we come here and decide to play some arcade games, it's fine but half the machines were broken. then we decide to do the omni vr and we asked the desk how to pay for it, they instructed us like there was no problem, just to find out that it was closed and there was no refunds. then they gave us the simulator for free, but THE SIMULATOR WORKED LESS THAN HALF THE TIME. it was laggy and freezed quite often. the corn dogs were fire tho. that's why i gave them one

Decent drinks, tasty appetizers, and bowling. Cool little place to come for a fun night. I have no complaints.

Palace Social was so much fun. We had a held a team event here. Bowling, games and a great place to get some Social photos. I highly recommend. Valet parking is available.

Pretty simple laidback regular spot. Went for bowling on date night, my first time here a few months ago. A kids birthday party was going on it seemed. Had a drink and bowled, first date and I lost the game!!! It was super fun though! I haven't bowled in a while. Pictures of the winner! For some reason I received a couple of compliments this day. Went around 5:30pm on a Saturday

Me and my family liked it. Everything is clean and nice. The restrooms are clean too! The only thing k didn't like was that it's kinda small and it gets crowded really quick. The arcade is more like an extra accessory because the bowling and the mini restaurant/bar take lo the spotlight. But overall it's a nice place to hangout.

Good place for an after work happy hour with a nice intimate bowling area comparable to Lucky Strike. The arcade area could use a bit more upgrades with options for it to compete with main event. Food was decently good (the fries were really good surprisingly).

A little pricy for bowling but ig that what comes with anyplace w/ a grass well nowadays. Great aesthetic and fun bowling (lanes were a little slick but maybe I'm just bad)

Completely gutted and redone in July of 2021, the space is spectacular! You absolutely have to check it out. Come before it gets crowded when people start hearing about what this is. They have a dessert bar, a beer bar, and arcade, state-of-the-art lanes, and a full restaurant with menu and even sunroom seating. Come for dinner or just to play.

I had my daughters 10th birthday here recently & was completely blown away how amazing everything was. The food was amazing! The adults definitely enjoyed all the food they had & adult beverages. The crowd was not crazy for a Saturday. Our entire family had a really good time. Super clean environment. The kids had a blast. Every machine was working as well. Will definitely be coming here again!

A modern entertainment center filled with a diversity of games and things to do. There is a bar area with beers on tap options. Not busy on a weekday afternoon, there is no wait on arcade games and bowling. Bowling lanes are bit shorter than the norm, though still fun ($30 / hour, $5 for shoes rental). Arcade games can be accessed via a pre-paid card (purchased at the reception, value add can be via machine). Virtual 3-D games as well. Check it out. Have some fun!

First off, I don't leave reviews unless it's one of my top 10 best or worst experiences?and this was definitely one of the worst. My wife and I were excited to try this place for the first time and called ahead to check lane availability. The person who answered told us there was about a 20-minute wait, and that they don't allow reservations. Based on this, we decided to head over. When we got there, we were told the wait was actually an hour. Fine, no big deal. But after waiting an hour, we came back to s

I can't say enough good things about our experience at Palace Social for my son?s 16th Birthday! The location is central and convenient, the atmosphere is great for every age group and so cute, even the bathrooms were clean and pretty! Making reservations at the bar/restaurant was easy through open table, the front door staff greeted us as soon as we walked in and directed us to our table. Our waiter Mark was friendly, attentive and helpful! We intended to only provide his guests with light bites, but the f

The food was amazing! In the picture is the Caprice Pizza. Not pictured is their spaghetti with meatballs, but I also tried it, and it was very good as well. The arcade was small. It was a little disappointing. BUT they do have a StepmaniaX machine! I've been wanting to play one for years since I'm an avid Dance Dance Revolution fan. This place would be great to hold a party in! It's huge! And there's also a bowling alley if you don't want to play the arcade games. I'd come back for just the food, bowling

Recent visitor for my friends son?s bar mitzvah, and this place did not disappoint! Over 150 guests and the staff was super helpful and accommodating, not to mention the variety in arcade games, bowling and just good old fashion fun was such a nice and pleasant surprise! We had the best time and will definitely be back!

Beautiful spot, the food is delicious, and the attractions they have gathered together, you won't find anywhere else. Something for everyone to enjoy. I really liked the brand new e-sports lounge and the multi-sport simulators. So much fun!

Awesome venue to host a corporate event, like a mixer or Happy Hour! Our group had a great time and the staff was exceptional.

I was hoping Palace Social would be the better version of Main Event. It's smaller, seems to be more upscale. But it's so small that the experience leaves you wanting more. We really wanted to play the sports simulator game but we're told that a party had rented them out and they'd be ready in 30 min. We played at the arcade for an hour (where a third of the games were out of order) and when I checked with the staff they said the party was still using the simulators and it would be another 15-30 min. We go

Great ?Houston Hidden Gem? for families, date night, or group functions to hang out, eat great food, and bowl, there's a gaming area for kids of all ages. They have interactive games like golf, a bar, sweets station, and Instagram-worthy spots for pics. There are seating areas and big screens, did I say the food was good?

Came for my birthday. Food, drinks and service were great. As a bowler the lanes aren't the best though.

We had an office lunch & play event here and it was so much fun. Food was great and everyone had a great time. I highly recommend this place for any event for business or personal. Getting the Palace Play cards and using during their Palace Play Hours special was a great deal.

Pretty nice arcade! Games can get expensive (around $2 per play) and some maintenance issues were present, however we were able to win a large prize!

We had a great family birthday party at Palace Social! Between the bowling, arcades, and excellent food & drinks, everyone had a wonderful time. The staff was wonderful to work with and even joined in on our silly birthday hats! It is a more pricey outing than a traditional bowling alley, but the expereince matches the price. Plus they have a large easy to access parking lot and clean bathroom facilities. We will be back for sure!

We had so much fun for my daughter?s birthday. We rented out the beautiful dining area and it transformed beautifully. Party was decorated by @bounceboujeehtx

Came in for bowling, told 1 hr wait time. Got on the list and ate on-site. Took 1.5hrs to eat, mediocre experience. Server missed 1/3 of our table order, missed extra condiments, and checks were difficult to get in order. During the meal, asked what the wait time was for bowling. Told 30 minutes or less. Finished eating, checked in for bowling. Told at least 45 minutes and that 2-3hr wait time was normal, after we had been told an hr at check-in. Wish there hadn't been a bait and switch to get us to eat on-

This place is so cute and the vibe is amazing. We bowled and played at the arcade which was a great experience. The food was good and the staff was very attentive. I would go back but probably not on a weekend because it's only 8 lanes for bowling. Overall great nice vibe.

This has been one of the worst experiences I ever had. After about 3 different waiters/waitresses, wrong orders, and rude customer service? our server told our table of 20 that we could only have 1 check. The frustration came from the manager saying that it was our responsibility to read it on the menu BEFORE we ordered. If you look at the picture attached, that rule is in blue at the bottom of the menu. The manager took no accountability and put all of the responsibility back on us.

Came here last night for the first time and had a blast!! Our bartender Lindsey was an absolute delight. Huge smile and suggested drinks that were top notch (her drinks were phenomenal, and STRONG!) The arcade was clean and decently priced. Overall we will definitely be returning!

We've been coming here since it opened. My son has won a switch and drones and all kinds of great prizes. However, as much as I love this place and its staff? especially the amazing managers who always make a great experience happen for my son and I, I regretfully have to give a negative review because we were denied entry on a Saturday because of a Bar mitzvah. When it costs me $200 or more every Saturday I get custody of my son and come where I grew up at palace lanes and want him to have a childhood ,

AWESOMEEEE I RATE THIS 10/10 ! Great place to spend quality family time and have lots of fun. If you're looking for a good time and a arcade with a twist you should definitely check this place out ! AWESOME SERVICE AWESOME FOOD AWESOME DRINKS

A great place to hangout with friends or family. The kids especially would love it here. Ample food options available in cafeteria.

This place is great for all ages! Bowling, games, sport simulators, virtual reality, a digital ride... we love it here. My daughter celebrated her 5th birthday and everyone said it was the best party. Nikiah made everything really easy for us and the events ran smoothly. I definitely recommend this place. Lots of fun!

We decided to do my son's birthday at Palace this year after coming quite a few times to hang out and liking it. This review is strictly for the event, and not for our every day experience. When we started making inquiries about parties, we were helped by Joanna, who was amazing. She was very helpful, thorough, and accommodating with planning out the party package, add-ons and activities. She even did a walk through of the venue with us, made suggestions and helped us figure out setting up the space with ou

The food was absolutely delicious. I and my partner went specifically for the bowling experience although we had to indulge in other activities. There was a one hour waiting list. The girl at the front desk was extremely rude. I was friendly enough to say hello and she totally ignored me and was talking to her colleague. I called her attention again and said hello, then she said can't I see she's busy? I was perplexed! Why are you in the front desk if you can't address people walking up to you for informati

We hosted our annual employee appreciation party here for the past three years and it's always been such a great time for our team. Last night Nikiah (our party host) and Joanna (the event coordinator/manager) were amazing, I appreciate them so much for helping us pull off such a successful event. Anything I needed, they were right there to help me make it work. The food was amazing and the ice cream bar was such a hit! The staff was also very kind. 10/10 would recommend.

The service is amazing. We booked our teams end of the year celebration and they were able to accommodate our large group on short notice. Their customer service is great!

Went with my son to go bowling and play arcade games. The bowling was great with plenty of dinosaur ramps for little ones. After our hour the attendant offered to activate our lane to finish our game (they were slow in the afternoon and we only had two frames left). The arcade looks cool with some unique experiences but we ran out of time and didn't get to play. The one negative is that parts of the place reeked of weed. It was enough to make me consider leaving. I'll give it another shot, but management r

On a Wednesday not packed at all!! Good food.. huge plates taste good!! Bowling atmosphere awesome!!! Nice decent place to have a good time!!

My company did their holiday party here and the service, food and activities were perfect! Everyone had a great time and they made the planning simple. Erin the event coordinator was extremely helpful. She made great recommendations and kept our needs in mind. The host, the day of the party, was very attentive and just the help we needed to make sure everything ran smooth. If you have to plan an event make sure you consider Palace Social!

Such an awesome experience! Not only is the food great, the bar has an ample selection, there are karaoke rooms, arcade, VR area, e-sports, virtual sports and a 5D ride. There's definitely something for anyone and everyone.

It was really nice and clean, great decor, lots to do, kind staff, and fun. That's the good! The not so good is the insane price. The arcade and games are fine but the bowling is bonkers expensive. My 5 year old and I bowled for 1 hour and it was over $60. I went to order a drink and stopped short after I saw topo chico was going for $6. Each. (Also for reference I inquired about a 2 lane bowling birthday party. 10 kids for 1 hour was quoted at $800 and that does NOT include tax, tip, or food and drink).

We recently had our company's end of year party at Palace Social, and it exceeded all our expectations! Erin and the team were truly amazing to work with. They accommodated all our needs and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly the day of. The food and drinks were delicious. The staff was friendly and the service was prompt. There were activities for everyone to enjoy! Our employees had a blast and we highly recommend booking your next event here!

All around great experience. Arcade is small but filled with great games, VR experience is reasonably priced and definitely worth doing. The staff is very friendly, everything was very cleaned and organized, food was really good, and the drinks were good as well.

The food was good but the level of service is 100% INFLATED. after I expressed that there's NO NEED fir a waitress/waiter; the front desk host INSISTED it would be better so that we could get service.. she neglected to mention that you could simply order food at the desk. But that would take away from the gratuity which is ALL THEY'RE CONCERNED ABOUT. So moving forward we will just si in any lounge area which is more comfortable anyways plus keeps money in your pocket instead of feeding there's. It's not

Customer service good! Bartender was great at suggesting drinks bowling was really fun. Food good. Over all a good spot for friends, family or date

The atmosphere here is great from the time you are greeted at the door. If you want to bowl on the weekend you may have to wait a while, but there are many things to enjoy while waiting. The food is amazing and the drinks are great. The servers and bar tenders are awesome, fun, and friendly as well. The game rooms are so fun with many activities to choose from. It's fun for a date night or the family. We had a blast.

If you're looking for one venue to both host a meeting in a private room, then finish the day with games and fun, look no further than Palace Social. This arcade/restaurant offered a perfect balance to get work done, and unwind at the end of our meeting. The customer service was great with staff always ready to assist. A few last minute alterations to our request were accommodated and our whole team enjoyed the venue. Thank you again.

The combined element of being family friendly yet have a nice selection of cocktails at the bar made this place a nice stop to check out. We got the nachos at the bar for an appetizer and it was pretty good. Alot to do and makes a great date night aswell.

We did a work event here and everyone had a great time. There are plenty of activities so there is something for everyone. The staff was great and took good care of us. It was an excellent experience.

We won a party at Palace Social for 12 through a raffle. It was easy to set up the party and the event itself was a blast. The staff moved us seamlessly from the different activities and was prompt with food and drink. We would definitely purchase this experience again.

We have been here several times. Including for casual family dinner (and bowling) as well as a child's birthday party. We love this place! For grown-ups and kids alike and will most certainly be back. We were also please with the professionalism of our host when there was some confusion with booking in a particular area. 5 stars all-around!??????????

We hosted our holiday party at Palace Social and everyone had a great time. The food and drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was so fun.

We had our company party here and it went so well! Joanna and the staff at Palace Social were so easy to work with. The food we ordered ahead of time was displayed perfectly and there was plenty of it. Great place for a large group to have multiple options for food and fun!

Probably some of the worst bowling lanes in the city. Too small, the lanes can hold up to 6-8 people? It's way too small for parties of that size.

We had our wedding reception at Palace Social and it was the best decision we could have made! Rebekah and the party host set up my decor and tables exactly how I wanted plus some! Food was amazing. We chose the street taco buffet and had plenty to take to-go. Received compliments from guests all night about the food, set up, and servers.

The menu includes a "16 oz ribeye" which was really just a thin piece of meat, most likely chuck eye, did not have the spinalis dorsi (ribeye cap), and was incredibly tough to chew. It was also definitely not 16 oz, more likely 10-12 oz.

We held a birthday party for our daughter?s 7th birthday at Palace social and were so pleased at how everything went so wonderfully. All the kids had a blast. The party was perfectly and seamlessly planned by the Palace team and the staff, food, and drinks for the adults were wonderful. We'll surely be returning!

A great spot for a large birthday party! The vibe was fun and energetic and the food was perfect for kids and adults alike. We will definitely host another party here!

Excellent family place or for a date with your partner, very good atmosphere, very tasty food, it really is a place to spend a spectacular day

The burgers they had were awesome! The wait time for bowling was almost 2 hours, which wasn't bad for a Saturday afternoon. And lots of video games to keep you busy in the meantime. My only complaint are the prices. Yeah they're high for pretty much everything.

I cannot say enough about Erin and her outstanding service. We planned a client appreciation event here and she went above and beyond to ensure my guest and I had everything we needed in order to have a great time! Literally from set up to conclusion of the event she was always footsteps away to assist us in any area we needed. Erin is the poster child for what five star customer service looks like. If you're looking to host and event, date night, or a fun night out with friends and family don't search any

We celebrated our daughter's 21st birthday party. My daughter loved the venue and had the best time! Our party guest also enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff was so nice. Rebekah (Event Coordinator) and Amber (Host) were attentive and personable. We would highly recommend this for kid or adult party. Shanna

Renee and Juan was super helpful The arcades were fantastic and a great area to chill and have a lot of fun. Can't stop talking about the staff. They are phenomenal and Super nice. Palace social is a great place for a weekend out Highly recommended especially Renee and Juan if you need any help

Had high expectations for what was advertised a fun experience. Unfortunately, I and my party encountered poor service, terrible food/drinks and a manager who couldn't bother to remedy the situation other than offering a game card for their arcade. Would you imagine that further, I was blamed for the poor quality and state of my to-go order?? I won't be back nor would I recommend.

My sister had her 16th birthday party here. Our host, Amber, was very sweet and a joy to be around. We did bowling and the sports simulator, both of which were very fun games for our group. The arcade area is also very pretty neat. However, I found it strange how Palace operates in terms of time. Our party was scheduled until 4, and our table started being scraped at 3:55. The entire event, it seemed like the staff was in some sort of rush to just get things done. If they operate on military time, that's a

If you are an individual or a family member/friend of someone with food allergies, you should know that Palace Social does not allow any medical exceptions related to allowing outside food. They are militant in their policy of not allowing any exceptions, even if their kitchen cannot handle your allergy/allergies. Their marketing manager was kind enough to recently explain this in a local neighborhood group (see screenshots for details). Editing to add that, despite the reply from Palace Social, they do re

I actually passed the place twice on the way there, but once inside, I was very pleasantly surprised. It's clean, modern, they packed a lot of activity in a small place but it didn't have a crowded feel. Good food was a bonus, And the server was awesome! The only criticism I have is that bowling is charged by the hour instead of by the game, time runs out fast especially when bowling with small kids- although I get why they do it like that.

We had a 60th birthday party at Palace Social with nearly 100 guests and EVERYONE had a great time. The food was fabulous. The service was great. The bowling and games were a ton of fun. And Rebekah was awesome every step of the way with planning and execution. Thank you so much Palace Social!!

First time here and this place is amazing! So beautiful and the staff is amazing and very attentive and sweet. I'll definitely be coming back sooner than later. Foods amazing! I tried the crab cakes, sampler platter, nachos and pizza. Me and my friends had a blast!!! Thanks Ashley you as your staff definitely gave me a night to remember

We had a team-building event at Palace Social yesterday. The food and service were great! It's rare to see such a menu at a place where you can bowl! We had a party of 12 and everyone loved the food. The restrooms were clean and the staff professional and courteous. If I could, I'd give 6 stars!

My organization hosted a staff social event at Palace Social and our experience as a group was absolutely amazing. From the planning to the execution, the Palace Social team was attentive, informative, and welcoming every step of the way. Multiple people from our staff told me how much great this place was! Definitely recommend Palace Social to those looking to host a big group for a day of fun!

Food was pretty decent, but the heavy set white bartender with a pony tail was rude as ever obviously wanted us to leave soon since closing time was in the next hour as soon as we got there. Couldnt say ?your welcome? wanted to have an attitude when i had a question about the happy hour menu, ruined our time as we are touring houston basuc hospitality wouldve made this a 4-5 star review
