The food is good but it did take 30-35 mins to come out. The bar staff is polite and quick and the bowling is fun too.
I've been here twice and both times it was company sponsored events (meaning all food and drinks were free to me). So I can't speak to pricing but this place is cool. Staff was super attentive, kept things straight and got what we ordered correct every time, the bowling is fun but you have to keep your own score with a pen and paper, quite a few pool tables, ping pong tables, and shuffleboard. They have a huge bar and a table for poker. Since I think I've had about everything on the menu at this point, food can be a major hit or a slight miss. Nothing we had was terrible and some things were awesome. Would definitely go back, especially with a group of friends.
Super classy, fun place! I went here with some friends during their soft opening and all of the games were free. However, it was on a weekend, so it was a little busy and I wasn't able to play anything--but the selection was good! I'm always a fan of a place that has ping pong. The food was also great, and the drink selection was fun. The service was also very good--our waitress was very attentive.
The Goodnight is a bowling alley, billiards hall, and upscale bar rolled into one. Additionally, The entertainment is rented by the hour and is pretty reasonable during happy hour or M-Th. The food is pretty good but it's very expensive for what you get. Serving sizes are on the smaller side so it's hard to share. Their cocktail menu is solid but not inspired although the prices they charge would lead you to believe otherwise. I don't believe there's beer on tap, which is a draw back as bottles are always more expensive. Overall it's worth taking in the atmosphere and playing a variety of games (they also have shuffle board, two ping pong tables, and board games) with friends but I recommend keeping drinking on the low while enjoying revelry at the Goodnight unless you're loaded and looking to show off (happens a bit here).
The Goodnight is a great place for big groups if your having an event, birthday, etc. They have plenty of table space and tons of games if you're not the type to just want to sit around eating and drinking with a big party.
While the cocktails and beer selection were both really good, the food was hit or miss for our group. But they do have a good variety of food options (and my Catfish was tasty).
Maybe the best part of the design of this place is that it's segmented between the dining and games. This keeps the noise and games away from people just enjoying a drink or having dinner.
We had a little confusion on how to rent out different games like ping pong and shuffleboard, but the hostess and server were patient in answering our questions and helping us figure things out. That's all you can ask for in my opinion.
Great party place, give it a try.
Wow, me and my wife love going here to get away from the kids every once in a while. The bar is great, they have all kinds of drinks to select from and the food changes regularly since they use local ingredients which most are seasonal. The creator/chef of their dishes has a brilliant mind. It is not cheap but is appropriately priced for the quality.
I've only been here once and have been wanting to go back. The bartenders were fun and helpful. The whole concept of the restaurant, bar, hangout, etc is awesome. My friend and I enjoyed a few drinks and the Reuben fries appetizer - yum! They are said to have a pretty good brunch on Sundays and free bowling to go along with it. :)
I finally made it for brunch and I was impressed by the big adult beverages they offer as well as the size of the dishes. I had a delicious crab cake eggs benedict. For the quantity of food, it's definitely not a bad deal.
Went for happy hour and snacks with friends. This was my first time. I had stayed away thinking it would be too loud or the crowd would be too young, but it was a really great mix. The food was fantastic and wait staff was great. I think it was Vince or Vinny and I can't remember the bartenders name but she was great. They had great recommendations. I would recommend the Ruben. I don't often write comments, but had so much fun, i just thought i should share.
We recently held our daughter's and her fiance's Engagement Party at the Goodnight. They provided a brunch and unlimited mimosas in addition to three bowling lanes and access to the mechanical bull and pool tables.
Our Event Planner was Rob. Our event hosts were Tasha and Jared. They definitely went above and beyond to satisfy our every need. They handled everything from wrist bands, keeping food and beverages stocked, making sure we had our bowling lanes, getting bull ride operators, you name it. They even repainted the little food signs for the biscuits and gravy because the original one did not have the biscuits and gravy separated so vegetarians could not have eaten the biscuits. Many of our guests commented on both Tasha and Jared's attentiveness and pleasantness and how great the venue was. We definitely appreciated all the effort.
Good cocktails, small but good beer selection. Delicious food. plus fun stuff to do.
