Reviews for Max Bowl - Baytown in Baytown, TX
The days of paying for each game are gone with this bowling alley. Now you are cutoff after your time has expired no matter if... your finished or not unless you go on off days and times. You feel rushed to get all of your bowling in before time expires. Mgt. Acts like oh well and refused to let us pay by the game. Off to Pasadena where I can still pay for each game. Read more
Took my daughter and her friends here for her birthday. She turned 15 and didn't want anything too crazy. An older bowling ally... for sure. Food is a bit pricey, but let's be honest, that's their best chance to make some significant money. So, I don't mindsupporting the establishment. The people were helpful and my kids from 7-17 all had fun. The gaming area is a bit of anafterthought. Not great but not horrible. Only a few really fun games there. Worth spending for a few $20 cards for the kids toplay. Restrooms were clean and food was good. You're in a bowling alley, not fine dining. So, everything met my expectations. Iwill happily go back with just me and my wife or take my kids. Read more
We love this place as a family! They have new arcade games with something for everyone. Laser tag is two levels and so much fun.... Boudin balls taste good. I?m not a huge fan of their seating as the chairs are connected to the table but each section has aseparate bar table and chairs. Read more
Signed up for the kids bowl free program for this summer, nice facility, the staffs were very nice, we couldn't locate the... lightest bowling ball for my child, but the gentlemen custodian came to us and gave us one, super nice guy. We had fun. Read more
I promised a birthday party to my son turning 13 and he chose Max Bowl Baytown ?because, Dad, they have Laser Tag!? When I... started to read the reviews (which had me thinking we would arrive at a smelly, hot, sticky, poorly run place with a surlycoordinator and everyone would have a bad time), I was hesitant and tried to talk him out of it. His face sank, so I called MaxBowl ? admittedly, reluctantly ? and began to plan. What we got the day of the party was a pleasant surprise: We walked in to avery clean, bright, nice-looking, very well air-conditioned place. Our coordinator arrived almost as soon as I let them know wewere there, and he shared the proposed schedule with us (no one objected), and he was with us for every activity transition andstayed nearby me most of the time, reminding us what was next, and returned almost immediately after each special request(mostly requests of water for the adults and kids who didn?t want soda). Our Party Room was also well air-conditioned and hadvery clean tables and chairs and a lockable glass door which they locked and opened quickly upon request (as opposed to otherplaces I?ve been that have just an opening for a door where anyone could walk in), so the other parents were free to watch andinteract with our kids without having to have one of our own crew on guard over the cake and gifts. We did the Maxed Out Partywith an extra game of laser tag for the 2 1/2 hours we scheduled, I think we went 5 minutes over, and that was mainly gettingthe kids out of their Skywalk harnesses. I asked the boys if there were any problems with anything, and the only thing was onekid of the 8 with us couldn?t figure out his laser gun controls his first time through, but had it down for the second laser tagsession. I was relieved that there were no complaints from the party participants nor parents. After the coordinator-guidedparty was officially over, we handed out the included arcade cards, which extended the gathering another 30 Read more
Ok so here we go, this place has a really nice area for bowling ????, but they do need to put more variety of bowling balls, I... had a hard time finding one for me. The food is not as cheap, but they have to make money obviously somehow. Now talking aboutthe arcade side. A lot of machines are broken, or they broke just at the time you start playing, they have mechanical failureand there is no one ever there to fix them. Now as for the laser tag, one of my children couldn't even make it through the wholeround of the game, due to the excessive heat in the laser tag room. There was no Ref throughout the game and at the end of thegame we just left because there was no one to escort us outside or even give us the rules at the beginning of the game. I didn'teven want to enter the restroom that is on the arcade side because they smell horrible, there is pee all over the floors andwater plus floor are super sticky, I mean seriously guys this on pandemic time where you should keep clean everything. Not evenbefore the pandemic the place has been like that. The skywalk game is closed and when you want to play they tell you they don'thave anyone to open the game. Whenever you want to go and change tickets for prizes, it is useless since they don't have goodprizes or prizes at all most of the shelves are empty, you can see all this with pictures I posted.

Nice little family place. They have plenty of different size and weight bowling balls of all colors. The arcade is small but... mighty. The skywalk is a good feat for kids, and of course can't forget the lazer tag. The facility was clean and maintained.The staff was friendly and helpful. Read more
