I visited Elev8 with my family as my wife and I were in town before making a big move to California. We primary went to bowl and eat, but ended up walking around and enjoying the facility. Upon arrival the building was adequately temperatured and there was tons to do. We first decided to get food at the restaurant located inside. The service was good but the food could have been better. My party enjoyed what they ordered, but some items did come out incorrectly. Nevertheless, we continued on and took what was given. I advise asking before getting your hopes up for a particular item as there's a chance they may not have it. Most notably the wings. After dinner we went to bowl. $40 for an hour for up to 6 people seemed like a pretty good deal, especially since we paid $76 for the same deal at a different location. The lanes seemed standard, multiple sizes for house bowling balls, and he rental sues were good. Be careful as one my family members had to change out their shoes because there was little grip on them. During bowling there was an announcement where there was a free axe throwing for everyone wearing closed toes shoes. So that was our next stop. We arrived and was provided house rules by Kalista. She went over everything and was super excited for us. I had been axe throwing before but some others had not. She and Blake were great teachers for them and great company as well. The axe throwing was much different than what I was accustomed to. Normally it's just a bullseye and you throw the axe, this was not the case. There were multiple different games that could be played through a projector against the wood. We played a standard game of first to 300 points, tic tac toe, and a fund variant of H-O-R-S-E (but spelled A-X-E or another option was V-I-K-I-N-G) All in all, we had a splendid time at Elev8 and will be returning once we go back to visit again. Note- there were two vending machines for mini melts as well.

Good but under-staffed arcade with some non-functional machines. Skip the overly complex mini-golf and bring earplugs if you're going near the go-karts. Arcade: 3 stars Ropes course: 3 stars Laser tag: 5 stars Mini golf: 2 stars This is a great concept for an amusement center that doesn't *quite* work due to essential parts of the system breaking. Reception: The card machines are straightforward but several have visual glitches where you can't see the whole screen. The reception staff were very efficient. EDIT: forgot to add that you need to register to get cards to do anything, which takes about 3 mins/person. I get the rationale, but it's hard to do that with small kids who want to rush in and play. Arcade: The arcade is pretty classy. Good layout, good variety of games. But when I got there at opening, there were several that were clearly non-functional but not labeled as such (see pictures). Mini golf: You can't see the mini-golf when you walk in, and I would have skipped it if I'd understood how it works. You register each member of your party at a kiosk and get a chipped putter. The process takes about 1 minute per person. Then at each hole, you register your putter by holding it up to a sensor. Your score gets automatically tracked, and you get extra points for trick shots. That's great in theory. In reality, no one's putter was recognized by the machines in my party of seven, so we all had to re-register. Then at random one of them stopped working on hole 4. They can't fix it individually - they would have to reset the entire group. We didn't have time for that, so we opted to just have one person sit out the round. They ran out of golf balls while we were there, and other groups also had issues with the putters. The poor staff had no idea how to fix anything and had to find a supervisor to retreive balls from one of the holes. In addition, the mini golf is right next to the SCREECHING go-kart track. It's seriously amazing how loud it is. Bring ear plugs. Laser tag: I played a round of laser tag with my two kids in a battle royale. It's a big enough space to be interesting, the music is good, and all of the equipment functioned. That's all I ask for when it comes to laser tag! Ropes course: They've figured out a way to make this almost entirely unsupervised. An attendant hooks the kid up with a harness, and there's a system of slotted tracks to let them go through various obstacles while being able to walk past each other. Seemed fine, but it's kind of small. The kids enjoyed it for about 15 minutes.

I have been here 3 times with my family (we have 3 kids) to celebrate each of their birthdays. Overall this place is clean, fun and the customer service is great! We have had a couple issues along the way though. 1. My son went on the rope course the first time we went then the next time he wasn’t allowed to because they said he was too short (by like 3 inches) 2. The info on birthday parties is inconsistent. The first time they just said sit anywhere, bring in a cake and your good. The second time they said we need to have a reservation. I called to get a reservation for the third visit and they had no idea what I was talking about. On the second visit I saw that other tables had signs that said “reserved for (so and so)’s birthday” with the elev8 logo. I asked about the signs and they had no idea what I was talking about. 3. The way to get the game tokens and pay for all the other activities is pretty confusing. We barley understood after being there 3 times. 4. Some of the food is really good and some is not so great. My mom ordered her burger well done and it was pretty pink. Also I ordered a cocktail and it was maybe 10oz, mostly filled with ice for $11 and it was definitely not worth it. Their credit card system in the restaurant hasn’t worked the correct way any of the 3 times we visited. You have to sign and tip before they actually run your card. 5. A lot of the games stopped working but the staff was really great about fixing them or reimbursing us. I will say that this business is very new and I understand they are still working out kinks. They are very understanding and helpful when I have brought some of these issues to their attention.

Interesting to see getting there about 30mins after they opened and no wait - doing the Pro cart racing they give you a time - it is downstairs with the axe throwing & laser tag + pool tables. Definitely a place to come and enjoy with the entire family. They provide a veteran discount as well. The axe throwing for 1 hour seemed like 3hrs and a lot of fun + the Pro carts faster than expected and so much fun.

I was going here weekly for awhile just to ride the go karts. They are really fast for a small track and it’s a lot of fun. They have two for one on thursdays and it’s a blast! All other days 3 for 60. It’s a fare deal for go karts compared to other places and for the quality. Lots of other things to do too! 35 mph to start and then they let you go to 45 mph if you get a fast enough time and have 10 races

Soo much fun here. Our kids had a field day with the go carts and the virtual reality games.
