Stopped in here in July 2025. This is a a fun place. It is both adult and kid friendly. The bar area is great. The bowling area is fun and satisfying. The arcade as you would expect it. Ample seating. There's even a ice cream bar. Over all a good place and one designed to have fun. Office events, kids parties all would be perfect here. The food choices are good and plentiful and choices for just about anyone. The bar definitely a good socializing venue. Ample parking out front. Definitely recommended.

β€œMy children and their friends had a blast at the Palace Social. My child was turning 12 years old. The bowling experience, arcade and party room were nice. The food was tasty and nice to have while bowling. The service staff were also all very kind and helpful. I highly recommend them for a birthday party for your family”

β€œCool place to chill out on a weekend. They have a couple game tables and a few simulator rooms. They also have a few bowling lanes but not many, so I recommend making a reservation before hand. I think it would do them some good to hire a few more bar tenders as we waited for 10 to 15 minutes for each drink.”
