    Staff were great. Food was pretty good. The golf simulator had continuous problems. They even restarted it once for us, giving us more time.

    I cant recommend this place. We've had 3-4 events here. Bartenders werent accomodating to us even with no other patrons in the bar during our reservation. Only game that worked was for golf and all other games didnt work. We left and had a blast at Punch Bowl Social where we would recommend over Swing Social any day.

    The golf clubs used for the simulator are extremely bad quality. You have to pay for better clubs and it isn’t much of a difference. The simulator glitches a lot, for a hefty price you get maybe 15 minutes of actual use. They didn’t honor a Groupon. Bad customer service and extremely over priced. No one really goes here, surprised they are still in business. I’d recommend anywhere else to spend your time.

    Food was awful and sooo over priced. A McDonald’s burger was better. Our fries were $10 and sooo small. Bartender seemed annoyed to serve us with an empty bar in front of him.

    Great place to socialize with a group. Negatives is food came out cold, drink menu was not accurate so there were some inconveniences and the price of the simulators are expensive.

    UPDATE: I really appreciate the level of support and involvement in the matter, that Mr Kirkpatrick had attending my bad experience, they did everything to subsane my situation and full filed my requests beyond what i was asking, I would definitely go back, to try again. Thanks again. The sim experience was ok, but not for serious golfers.., service was very bad, only one person there, order hamburger bc of bacon jam, didn’t get it, they said it did it wasn’t true.. charge 125 per hour as stated in they’re site but not as stated in my reservation in open table that soda 2 hour simulator experience for 125… they didn’t have the rental equipment either..

    Great food, fun simulator games, and wonderful staff! Were super helpful, friendly, and courteous despite being short staffed when we were there. Even offered us a free play on the simulator later on in the evening when there was an opening! Would definitely recommend

    Absolute worst service I have ever had. Server did not check on us once. We sat at the bar before we got our stimulator and took bartender 10 min to ask us if we would like anything and it was not busy at all. They were to busy talking amongst themselves.
