Reviews of Big Apple Fun Center (Bowling Alley)

NUEVO AMANECER

Very nice place to take the whole family!! First time here but definitely not the last. Lots of stuff to do and the food is very good.

BLAKE NEWTON

Super cool place. It's like a casino and Playland all in one!! Very clean and open.

Kristian Staton

Awesome place for kids and adults. Perfect for kid or adult birthday parties or any occasion really. Awesome food and drink selection, nice staff, good place to have fun and get out of the heat or get out of the cold.

Jmike Francis

Super fun place for a date or family night out

Natashia Houfek

Good entertainment for the whole family! Open late

Adam Pritts

We almost always have a great time at the Big Apple. Today was no exception. The staff wasn't very friendly today, but we still had a good time bowling.

Tim Moninger

Great redo on the bar and interior , pool tables , etc. ...... would give em 5 stars if they'd let me win more at keno

Michael Wing

Great place to go for drinks and to shoot some pool or bowl.

Norm Travis

Great place to have fun

Lidia Zepeda

It's so fun

Greg Stoner

Had a great experience bowling with friends from college. The environment was perfect for having a good time.

Zach Miller

Lot of fun things to do here, bowling, laser tag, mini golf and more

Brian

Some employees made my girlfriend feel that they didn't want to work there because they were on their cell phone.

Krantz TheGamer

Super fun

Peggy Hickman

Always a good time at the Big Apple.. with kids or just friends loads of fun

Janel Baker

Ballocity is a blast (and you can play ALL DAY which is perfect for summertime when it's too hot to play outside). The Lazer tag arena smells like old gym socks but is very fun. The glow-in-the-dark mini golf is fun for older kids but might frighten little ones. The bowling lanes are always clean and tidy.

Serrgio Wilson

Played 4 games in one hour against my buddy. The games went fast and I loved it. Super affordable too. I say check them out if your looking for some good bowling and entertainment.

Amber Rasmussen

I have been going to this a lot. Either enjoying playing the games. Enjoying the food. Or do some bowling. But I like to listen to the music.

Liz Fader

The games are more expensive now then they were before the card system was added. It's fun but very expensive.

John Ramon

Very fun place. Laser Tag got crazy with teens nut tapping each other and shoving little kids onto the floor.

vicente nunez

Nice place

Gale Boswell

The kids love the Big Apple it's nice clean good service just a little high priced

Chey Maliwat

Sometimes the employees aren't the nicest, but I still enjoy being there. The food is pretty dang high but it's not horrible, drinks are good, games are super fun.

James Klaudt

Good bowling and nice bar. Great service!

tena burch

Great place for kid's to have fun and play games. Customer service was great. Great family time can be spent there.

Julia Braum

Took 3 kids and 2 infants here and I would be okay if we never spent money at the Big Apple Fun Center again. An all access pass is $34.00 per person regardless of age (including under 1 year's old). The food is below average, the red headed "customer service" representative is extremely rude, unprofessional and lazy and the Laser Tag viewing area smells like something died in it. Each arcade game is $1.00 and the minimum amount to load on an arcade card is $10.00 (what a waste) and when it's time to cash in your points, they only allow you to pick items out based on "age". Never heard that before. If you are looking for a fun center, the Big Apple is not worth the headache.

Ivan Munoz

Nice place!!

Q Tip

Pretty good, but Lazer tag is too expansive

jeremy

This place used to be really fun. The game room was great. All the games worked and it was affordable. The best part was the tickets you and your kids got. Had something to show off for all your hard work. Now they upgraded and took that feature away. They made it all digital so all you have is a card that keeps track of the winnings. So now the kids don't have anything it is all on a card.

Peyton G

The Big Apple is loads of fun! This place has everybody including go carting laser tag mini golf bowling and bolocity lest not forget about the arcade and new bar will Come back staff were great food was good.

Crys Smith

Great staff and crazy clean!

Randy Harrison Jr

Fun family environment, there's something for everyone to do

Amanda Morris

I have went to this place since I was a kid, I now take my kids here for a good time. I love this place and always have loved it as well as my children. Only reason I gave 4 stars is bc I was somewhat disappointed with the new way the games are played. You used to use coins to play the games now you load money onto a card and swipe your card at each game. The issue with this is games are all different prices and my children were not able to understand that the card will run out of money and eventually not work. They can't keep track of what they are spending using the card depending on the ages of the children. I did love the update of the games though and regardless we still had a very good time here.

thomas ward

Good food good service nice atmosphere nice pool tables

Josiah Fouts

Good cold beer and fun times. Pool area is spacious and there is a game to watch on every screen.

Shari Loeffelholz

Good job

Kevin Mcconnell

Fun place lots to do for the kids. I liked the fact they had a greater majority of the arcade games working.

William yellowhorse

Had super fun.

Patricia Hunt

I love the Big Apple and my grandkids love it...every chance we get to Kearney we go to the Big Apple.. Me and my family comes from Hastings....

J Five

This is your one and only stop day or night! They have a Bowling Ally, Lazer Tag, Arcade , Prizes so win some tickets and redeem them for prizes no matter what age you are. Their is indoor kosmic minature golf, next the giant ball pit, yes the one you get lost in. in the summer see who the best driver in your party is on the gocart track. For the adults they have a giant bar to watch what ever sporting event your heart desires with keno and a few dart boards too. Yes their open every day of the week, day or night!

Brandon F

I was really surprised at how clean they kept this place. Usually, for bowling allies anyways, the standard is low. My children loved ballacity and I enjoyed the attention to keeping things clean and updated!

Nathan Anderson

Better for small kids, but not for teens or adults. Like a mix of chucky cheese's and wild bill's fun center. Very few games. Was bored within 3 hours

Thomas Anderson

We did a 3 in 1 birthday bash and only paid 178.00!!! We had at least 20 people it came with free glow golf. And the ball pit was so fun! The staff was friendly and great with the kids too!!

Nita Garcia

This is always a fun place to go and enjoy some cosmic bowling and great music. The bar is huge and a great place to have a drink and enjoy some pool or darts.

Joy

Extremely terrible! Sat two hours with kids to try and do anything and couldn't.All was full and packed. Manager was rude and he wouldn't refund or do anything but tell us to wait longer. Lincoln best place to go than here!

Claudia Ayala

A really good place to go and have some fun with the whole family. Laser tag is my favorite and the bowling. Glad that they make some upgrades to the arcade.

Sara James

We used to visit often but due to last experience we will not be back

Secret Shopper

Bar staff is incredibly RUDE. They don’t ever smile or make you feel welcome. Take your money else where if you want to be an appreciated customer

Rojae Murray

Awesome place to have fun with fam and friends

Phillip Rader

Is a good clean place. Food is good. Had no idea guy over charged on food and refunded me the difference.

Teresa Locklin

It's always fun when we go. Friendly staff and clean areas all over. Just food is a little pricey for what little you get.

Allyx Mitchel

Decent prices and a great updated facility, fun for the whole family!

Eric Exstrom

Kid paradise.....adult nightmare. Super fun though! Lots of screamers....kids will be tired

Heidi Spargo

We had a lot of fun and the staff was very friendly.

Jimmy Altfilish

Good place

Ruben Cruz

Was chill...

Chloe Bauer

Currently, the Big Apple is my go-to location for billiards. Unfortunately, they will be renovating the pool hall, which sounds great, but are replacing all the pool tables with coin operated pay-per-game tables. From what I know, this was the last pool hall in Kearney that had unlimited pool at a single price per player, but this will no longer be the case.

Richard Rogers

This place has seen better days it would seem. Food is not their forte, it was very average. We had many issues with the lanes we were bowling on.

Andrew Russell

Great place to visit. I recommend laser tag

TuMbLeMcWeEd 333

Great place to take your kids, I wish the prices were a little lower, but with no competition in town...

Hank Pridgeon

Great place great people! Corporate party. Thanks Cashwa!

Mckenna Peplinski

It's a pretty decent experience. They recently remodeled the bar area. They shut the laser tag part down too early in the evening. I feel like they could lower the prices on their wristbands so that larger families can enjoy going. I believe Tuesdays are half-price activities which is really nice. It wouldn't hurt if they put more balls in the ballocity area. They have a pretty decent Pizza. The bowling is a lot of fun for the whole family.

Anya Smith

It's fun hanging out with some people who are in the game every Wednesday night

Curtis Poteet

Name says it all. Young and old. It's the fun center with a bar...

Justin Foster

The new updated bar is amazing, probably the best looking bar in town now.

Jonathan Cook

Very "meh" experience. Everything is overpriced and the staff is rude. I bowl, shoot pool and play arcade games at many other places.

Gaming Evolved

Good place for family fun, hours of some of the things to do in there are pretty dumb. Lots of stuff to do

Donald Pass

Very family friendly place!!

Haley Kottmeyer

Lots to do, lots going on. Fun for the whole family!

Caleb McKeon

Fun for the hole family or friends

Michael White

Need to have food available in the lounge later and serve staff who will take your order instead of having to go from the dining tables to the bar yourself.

._.??

I loved the spungbob game!!!!!

Mandy Searle

Lots of fun here. They have lots of games for the kids to play and bowling and they have a ball pit and laser tag. My kids love going here to play.

josh hartley

Lasertag is a blast, big place

Jamie Slack

Great place fun atmosphere, only we were there nearly 4 hours and never had a waitress stop at our table. Waited on everyone around us. Had to go to the bar for our own drinks. Very bad service.

Jesse Thies

I'm the head coach of a wrestling team and after we qualified for state duals we were looking for something fun to do and we found it. Good food at a very decent price. My team had a blast with last tag and there were plenty of bowling lanes to keep us busy for hours. Plus a large arcade to keep that competitive spirit up. I can safely say that we are looking forward to coming again.

Jason Murray

Tuesdays are the best! We always love coming here and we don't even live in Nebraska anymore.

David Hartman

Great place to have fun bowling and other games

Antonio Hernandez

Very good place to take the kids to have some fun and very good food!!

Noel Santistevan

Great place for family and friends. I always enjoy going there

shawnda and brad Whitson

Bad experince my son is 4 bigger kids was shoving him down and punching him on the ball volicty by the time i got up there they ran off i told the staff and they said they cant do anything so i dont feel comfortable taking my kids there anymore since kids aint safe there

Nick Quiring

The Big Apple is always fun. Not just for kids but for parents too!!! One of the best places in the Tri-Cities

Isaac Skalak

Very well kept bowling alley and the staff is very nice!

Bruks Ariza

Brand new look at the bar. Way better that what it used to be. Recommended

Taryn Trisdale

actually havent been forever.. wondering if your going on a saturday if its best to reserve it if itll be packed and have to wait in a long line to do anything or if its not too busy??

Jay Rolland

I loved it. No stop entertainment! Excellent staff and worth every dime.

Tregg Reiss

Great atmosphere great for taking kids bowling and arcades. Great remodeled bar for the adults.

Jacqueline Arrowood

This is a very fun place. We only stayed a few hours, so we played laze tag, glow golf, and the giant play structure with the foam ball air cannons.

Charlee Frenzel

Kinda dirty. Smelly. The re done bar area is nice. Very modern. The staff are jerks. Bunch of kids who think their poo doesnt stink. You ask foe help on the little prepaid cards and they smack their gum in your face and act like you're so stupid. Needs about a boat load of Lysol sprayed everywhere. Expensive... But you get what you get.

Brice Morgan

Just hang and have fun.

Bobbi Martin

Great food

Mark Bachenberg

Good clean place for kids

Matt Hernandez

Didn't think I would have as much fun as I did in Lazer tag! Omg a blast!

Autumn Oliver

My family and I love coming here for all the activities they offer, but the staff usually treat us like inconveniences and don't look happy to be there or help.

Trish G

Super fun place to take your family!

tim everly

lots of fun for the whole family great way to spend hot days

Brian Gottschalck

I would give lower than a "One" if possible. Like in the negatives. Brought a large table of adults and kids.....Dinners arrived sporadically at best...like 15 minutes apart.... Had 2 couples that did not receive their food at all......after 30 minutes (after others had finished) I approached the waitress.....super nice girl yet no idea food was missing and people were still waiting......I then approached the "mgr".... Guy in a dirty 4x addidas sweatshirt and sweat pants.......No way to tell he is mgr....Apparently he gets a pass to dress like the dishwasher.......He felt it was more important to hang with buddies on the corner of the bar and get in the last word..... than to be expediting the food......He did offer an apology (after my request).....yet....no food...and back to the corner of the bar.....Texting Still waiting to get our bill (20 mins....no exaggeration).... Unnaceptable service.....very limited 5 item menu. Food we did get was wrong, and delivered consistently to the wrong people.....Wings were mushy from sitting......Nobody likes old food. Seems everybody does everything here....yet nobody is really trained at anything. Garaunteed next ball tournament in town.....Dinner will not be spent here.

Amy Vinton

I'm leaving a 3 star because the service varies so greatly here. One time we'll receive phenomenal customer service and other times it is extraordinarily poor.....our most recent was my 12 year old daughter was waiting in line for a prize and got knocked over. The gentleman at the prize counter raised his voice and asked, " do you need something or are you just here screwing around!" My daughter just turned around and left upset, because she was embarrassed and upset. It is simply not ok to speak to children that way, especially if we want them to learn to be respectful.

Chawesome929

Lots of bowling lanes and a really fun place to host a party.

Ann Jeanette Gould

Burgers are amazing!

Sinergy Storm

Tons of options and I loved the fact that it was low prices too! Too bad the drinks weren't free refills though...

Carol Chadwick

Great place for entertainment has about everything.

Arelibeth Lopez

Very good place!

jacinto guadalupe

Is a fun place where all people can play

Nathan Coulombe

Decent little fun-center thing. Went on a Thursday night and they do $5 pitchers of mixed well-drinks. Can't argue with that! Plenty of pool tables and other various games to play, too.

Tara Frankenberg

We always have a good time when visiting the fun center. Always clean. Lots to do for the family of all ages.

Laurie Marquez

Good place for fun and drinks

Dean Pelowski

What a rip-off when a coke and a beam and coke cost the same as a jack and coke and a beam and coke something wrong and the drinks suck and the service sucks. Their is alota better bars than this!

Justin Kelley

Cool place, but a dollar to play Pool? What is this, Denver? That's almost double what you pay for an hour of pool.

Suzanne Winfield

Enjoyed bowling. And looking forward to next weekend.

Robert Zeleznik

Laser tag was the most fun I had in years and the cosmic mini golf was one of the best mini golfsi played on in a decade, they also have billowing billards, did, and a bar, also s kids area.

Jen Kidd

Love, love taking the kids there...never disappoints...bowling, Ballocity, mini golf, lazer tag and go carts in warm weather!!

robert lemmer

For some reason can't use WiFi like I used too

Tricia Phalen

A bit pricey, but loads of fun!

Mary Whitney

They have things for kids and adults to do.

Dòuģĺas Negley

Bad service is not the thing you expect here.totally messed up the food order.

Jonathan Nuttall

Lindsey was probably the most prettiest girl I met tonight. She was amazing and I can't get her out of my head.

Jason Seward

Great place for fun with the family!

Joyce Wagner

So fun bowling

Micah Sessions

Great place to hang out with friends

Ryan Thomas

Fun af. Ball pit is sadly 12 and under. Went for prom and an outing with friends. Played later tag for the first time ever.

Candace Flavell

Fun place to play for all ages. The kids bowl free program is terrific and the kids love the ball pit. I didn't give it a 5 because they won't allow parents to catch or slow a little one down at the end of the slide and they can get hurt. Also, some of the workers can be short with small children, while leaving older kids to act up.

Misty Mooney

Lots to do. Lazer tag was a blast

Judith Geiselman

If you want a small Vegas for your kids then this is the spot! :) There's also lots for adults to do including a bar. Be prepared to spend a far amount on all the activities you want to try.

steve slone

Great place. Fun for the whole family.

Maggie Martinez

Awesome place to watch the game, big screen TV but bad service and average food

Crissy Reutter

It was fun with 4 boys, the service was not good and it was expensive to enjoy

Bud D

The good succ was given in the baff hous

William Orr

Always a great time!

EaterOFToast

This place had a laser tag game that left me sweating really recommended it

Luke Fisher

There is now four new pinball tables.... This place has some of the best burgers in town.

Dr. William Cavill

Fun times at a decent price.

Edna Jones

Jack S

Fun activities for people of all ages, good atmosphere alright food, and if you play keno it's the place to be.

Josh Griffith

Leandre Alexander

Fun for birthday parties and events it's a family place for all people laser tag is really great

Dave Damrill

Had a blast playing pool with my friend

Matthew Barron

Always a blast.

Aaron Jones

Much fun for kids and adults

Brandy bbeerman89@hotmail.com

The restaurant setup in the bar is completely misleading and the service is terrible. Waiting almost 45 minutes in a near empty bar while a bunch of people behind the bar just avoided eye contact and continued talking amongst themselves.

Daniel Matias

Fun time but not very clean...ballacity smelled pretty bad

Hoss Tsosie

Mehhhh. Money pit. Good drinks though.

Vic Loose

As a family, we came together to celebrate my grandaughter's 16 the birthday. She thought that would be a fun place for everyone to meet and celebrate. She and her parents live in Colorado Springs.

Jamie Ransdell

Always have a good time here. Even fun for adults without kids

BULLSFAN25106

kicked out because we were not wasting money there.

lI Ten

It would be nice if the bar employees could work the TVs

Jennifer Kaitlyn

Good place to go with kids and have a fun time. The bartenders and other workers can be very rude and provide very bad service a lot of the time. But, if you're looking for a good place to take your kids to run around and have fun, it's not a bad choice. Can be a bit pricey in some ways.

Gaylen And Patty Wallace

Always a lot of fun. The family enjoys going here because there is something to keep all ages busy. Bowling, miniature golf, go karts, laser tag and a two story ball pit for the young ones. Tons of fun.

Abi Curtis

I have been to the Big Apple on many different occasions and it seems to frequently have something new to offer. This last time they had just updated the arcade to a card system and my little brothers were excited they could more easily save up tickets to get something cool. :) The laser tag is great. Bowling is fun (especially when it gets dark!). The pool tables are a little beat up, but they do the trick. The mini golf can be fun. It is not really monitored by staff, so sometimes teenagers get in there and make the experience less than enjoyable.

Mark Kraus

Bowling alley food. Wrong burger and wrong beer brought to table. Burger was good just not what I ordered.

corey degeest

Love it was my son's 9th birthday Tuesday.we went there for an hour of bowling an hour of lazer tag and spent a couple hours in the arcade.best birthday ever he said.now my wife got free passes from work for 4 people.made it free.i was the fifth had to pay for an all day pass it was only 25 bucks.so we will be going again soon.

Joe Schmo

Prices are kind of ridiculous but good place to take the kids

Steve Newton

Rude girl working the activities counter outrageous prices they told me I had to pay 34 dollars for my 18 month old son to play in ballocity after I just payed for 3 kids to get all access passes will never come here again

Jim Crandall

Great place for kids,clean and fun!

Wade Preston

Fun time playing laser tag.

Trinity Ackerman

If you go on Tuesdays it's half off ($17.00) which makes it a fantastic deal! Unlimited bowling, laser tag and mini golf and $2.50 on a game room card. We always have a blast there! :-)

Jachob Grube

Great place to have fun playing pool, darts, keno, listen to music. They also just recently got 4 brand new pinball tables. Very cool friendly staff. Great to take kids huge arcade, bowling, laser tag, indoor black light miniature golf coarse. Will not be disappointed. They serve both alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages with a fully stocked cash bar. They also have a casual eatery to get standard hot dogs hamburgers fries and pizza.

Alvin B

Place is full of fun things a family can do. Bowling, glow golf, laser tag, arcade, billiards, volleyball, go cart - and a large bar for adult beverages and Keno.
