Max Bowl Port Arthur

This place was pretty awesome and tons of fun. It has an awesome place to play laser tag, pretty awesome bowling lanes, and a cool arcade. And on top of that a nice bar and restaurant. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a good time, they also have very friendly customer service.

Really had fun but the workers there are on the lazy side. Every time I needed anything I had to chase them down or get their attention some way. They just acted like if they ignored u then u would go away. But once they talked to u they were nice.

When you have nothing to do in the area there is at least something for most to do here. For the most part yes it’s a bowling alley but like most alleys there is some kind of food area to eat at as well as a bar. You can’t have a bowling alley without a small game room for your kids to run around in or to bring your friends for a few games of air hockey. The only non bowling alley non conventional compliment to this business would be that there is a laser tag arena attached to it.
Tuesdays and Thursdays are usually a little busier during the week since I suspect there is some kind of discount during those two nights. On weekends which I have gotten to view one time they turn down the regular lights and switch on the black lights so everything white or florescent can light up in a stellar fashion.
The parking lot is a little dark on the main side. I do not know why they never fix it or turn the lights on but if you are lucky you can park on the side entrance where the lighting is better there.
The interior for most part is pretty clean except when it comes to the restroom especially at the bar.
The arcade is pretty small but just enough to have a few games for most of the ages. The only thing that you will not find here is a pinball machine which would be nice. The carpeting and up keep is pretty clean and the carpet looking fresh. ]
The wifi here is free but do not expect blazing speeds.
The bar, not the happiest or most helpful bartenders I have encountered it’s like you have to be in the lower 20’s to get any kind of interactive service but it’s ok, we’re here to drink aren’t we? There is a projected screen off to the side where you can view many music videos while sitting at your café style table/​booth combo. Towards the back side there are a couple of pool tables as well.
The easiest way I can explain to find this place is to drive down 9^th street from Twin City Highway and you should be able to catch glimpse of the building especially at night.

Pretty fun place… it is dirty, though, but what do you expect from a bowling alley… the bar area is a blast… okay it’s not that great, but if you’re tipsy it seems like it… it offers pool, shuffle board, and that table soccer game which always seems easier than it actually is… anyway the drinks are priced fairly and they have great specials… service is quick too… although I didn’t care for the arcade, I thought there were plenty of games to choose from… didn’t get a chance to bowl, but did get prices… I’m not sure the going rate for a game of bowling, but they seemed high… thanks, Obama… good thing there were other things to amuse me… I’ll be returning here.

While they have spent some money in cosmetic appearance for the bar area, the bowling equipment continues to be problematic for league and open bowlers alike.
It is not unusual for a league to last much longer than expected because of the frequent breakdowns of the 60 year old pin setters.

The bowling area has been busy every time I’ve been here but it is a little outdated. The arcade area could use a few more games and they took away the best part of playing in an arcade, winning tickets! Here you pay for a card the has your tokens loaded on it and it also stores your tickets. The few times I have been there is never an attendant in the arcade area and only one person working at the bowling counter, granted it was the middle of the week. The best part about this place is the have bingo games seven days a week and its only 5.00 to play!

Bingo here at the MaxBowl building (not sure if they are affiliated though) is very entertaining and fun. Well at least it was for us despite not winning. But it is on another level of dirty and if you don’t like smoke then please stay away. A smokers paradise. And everyone is so old. Not like «OMG I’m 45! I’m so old» more like «I hope I make it through this bingo round alive cause I’m 97 years old-​old. Which is awesome unless you have one of those preteen phobias of the elderly. Also it got pretty toasty in there, I’m not sure if it didn’t have AC or if it malfunction but ya boy was sweatin. Anyway it was very fun and very cheap and its only a matter of time before you win. Top prize was $ 750 and its only $ 5 to play all night. Starts at 7PM everyday of the week so stop in!
