| - My 100th review!!!
My very first visit to top golf was on Tuesday, February 21, 2017. I brought my 16-year-old and 37-year-old with me on the night that I visited for the first time.
The facility was extremely busy as there were a lot of private parties. I believe there was some sort of a convention going on during the same week. therefore, a lot of these companies invited their convention attending guests to enjoy themselves at top golf. Many of the bays were occupied. I thought that there were not enough staff on hand to accommodate such large groups. One thing that is nice is that there are other games that can be played during the time that you may spend waiting for your bay to become available. If you are lucky enough to be on the premises during open hours, you can go down to the first floor to have yourself fitted for clubs. That is kind of a fun area. You can learn a lot about yourself, the way you swing, and what would be best for you.
The hourly rates in the evenings are pretty expensive if you ask me. It can cost the same amount to go and golf a full round, a full 18, during peak hours. During the day, the prices are not as bad. If by chance you happen to know a local, you should definitely bring them along with you as they may be able to get a discount for you.
From their pro shop, you can find all kinds of merchandise. You can find things as small as ball markers, to small towels Chapstick, charging banks for your phone, to things like pullover sweatshirts or hats. Under armor seems to be their #1 clothing brand. You'll find a number of UA apparel with the Top Golf logo on it. I think the one thing that I may go back for is a baseball cap. Disappointingly, it is not one that says top golf on it. I believe it is a Callaway hat. Still, I like the color and I think it will be great for spring time. with a new little one in our family, I am always looking for a cute little onesies or things like that to buy for the baby. I did find one, it was the cutest thing. I just don't know that I want to spend that much on something so small that they will grow out of so quickly.
I understand that this business is new here in Las Vegas but I did feel that my expectations were not met. It was difficult for us to get a waitress. She was not able to replenish our drinks very quickly. I felt like she needed my assistance but didn't have any. I do not blame her at all. I just feel like maybe the facility was not expecting to be slammed with so many people so quickly and therefore they did not have enough staff on hand. Eventually, I am sure it is something that they will figure out.
My 17-year-old and 37-year-old had a lot of fun. They played several games within the first hour. I thought about extending the time for another hour but decided that maybe they would go and play some of those other games that they have available. The other games that are available someone you're a bar area include shuffleboard and corn hole.
Corn hole is something that we have at home. And so, it was the game of choice because of its familiarity. Unfortunately, there were several drunk folks playing corn hole next to us. Because of that, they were splashing drinks around. Things are getting wet with alcohol. And people were just being kind of clumsy & sloppy. Although I brought this to the attention of one of the workers at the facility, they were not really able to do much about the sloppy guess. They only ask that they try and put their drinks down on a table instead of holding it in their hands while playing different games. That worked for a little bit, but of course, being drunk and a lot more forgetful the drinks in hand while playing corn hole resumed. It became so bad that we discontinued our game and just left to play shuffle board.
Shuffle board was also a bit of a challenge. The board conditions were not the best. The playing pieces were not real well taken care of. The sand that should've been on the board was everywhere. And of course, Some people had used the out of bounds areas from the shuffleboard table as a drink holder. And of course, alcohol was spilled and the sand ended up wet, sludge-like and was not something you could play on. Drunk folks tried to slide their drinks over the board from one end of the table to the other. Hmmm, not cool.
As mentioned earlier, waiter or waitress service was very difficult to get, but when we did get service it was great. Not all the waiters or waitresses know too much about the menu or their offerings. The presentation of some of the desert is not the best, although they initially seem like a lot of fun. The problem that we had was with their donut holes. I guess we read it wrong. But when we received them, the donuts were ones that we had to inject with their own feelings, like Bavarian cream, chocolate, and raspberry. They were good and everything, but they were extremely messy, got everywhere.
Fun & a bit expensive but great for first timers
