I have been to Fat Cats several times over the last year, watching movies, bowling & even miniature golfing. I had always seen the place as a family friendly entertainment center which is why I kept returning & recommended it to many people despite the fact that the pizza tastes like cardboard & the miniature golfing has a pathetic course. Since most of us who miniature golf dont take the game very seriously I thought the glow-in-the dark, pirates theme was entertaining enough to make up for the course. I also felt the privilege of reclining in the large leather seats in the movie auditorium made up for the tasteless food. For these reasons I kept returning. However, last night I went bowling with my sister-in-laws and nieces for a fun girls-night-out to celebrate a birthday. For the size of our party, we were given two lanes & we would have had a great time except that the disc jockey had decided to put sexually inappropriate music videos on the big screen directly in front of our lane, which were impossible to ignore. When we complained & asked if he could change the music we were told that after 9 pm they catered to the adult audience. The bowling alley was pretty full but I didnt notice anyone else appearing interested in the videos. Fortunately for the others, it wasnt smack in front of their lanes. My guess is the only one truly appreciating the videos was the jockey. So much for a family friendly place. I went home disgusted and with a headache. I wont be returning nor will I recommend it again!

I go bowling their for a bowling league, and have to say, it sucks... I went and bowled at Brunswick Zone XL and its an ACTUAL bowling alley, with new stuff, It was 100% better than FatCats... We went to FatCats because our League Manager got fired... And decided to make a league at the Amazing Jakes Replica... Their lanes stink... They charge 10$ just so you can wait have to have them fix the ball return because they said its all old stuff... They dont oil the lanes, and the coaches dont even bother helping the kids... The League Manager decided to just leave my coach at my old bowling alley... Sometimes the food comes out stale or tastes like mildew... My average in my old bowling league was a, 141, now my average is down to a, 120... Why waste 10 Dollars to do bad on sucky lanes and not get help!? Brunswick Zone XL Had at least 60+ kids in their league, then it went down to 12 in 1 YEAR! Now at FatCats everyone from my old league is a t FatCats... Theirs only 16 or so kids... They dont bother putting up bumpers for the smaller kids, they told him that this is how he is going to learn... He scores a 3 or 4... Totally learning... Dont bowl here... go to Brunswick Zone... Youll have a better experience...

The movie theaters are amazing with roomie comfortable black leather lazy-boy type seats that actually allow you to recline and put your feet up. Another amazing bonus about the theaters is that you can have your concession stand treats and drinks delivered right to you in the theater or you can choose to order mouth watering food from the conjoined restaurant Pizinis to have delivered right to your theater seats so you dont have to miss one second of your movie. Along with the theater FatCats has a state of the art full bowling alley for customers enjoyment. Dont think were done there because we are only getting started. FatCats also has a put-put course but its not your ordinary run of the mill course. We are talking Glow in the dark put-put that is out of this world. They also have a bar to order your coctails which can be taken anywhere in the establishment due to FatCats/Pizinis $100,000 liquor license. Last but not least you have Pizini which is a full on restaurant with full on dining seating. Last but not least you can test your gaming skills in the arcade. Over all this is your full on one stop entertainment paradise.

Youll probably be very disappointed or relieved as I was to find out that no fat cats are actually present on the premises. You will find, however, a plethora of over priced video games and snack food. Im not saying that as a slight towards them, thats just the status quo with any video game facility and snack food vendor. The movie theatre is great. Complete with lounger seating that can be easily reserved online. I especially love the ability they give me to walk up to a machine with no line and print my pre-purchased tickets, rather than waiting in a long physical line and possibly entering my movie late. If you want to bowl, Fat Cats is great for that as well. Say so long to the antiquated bowling alley seating and hello to comfy couches. Pogo pass users get to enjoy a round of bowling included as one of the perks of the pass. Overall, its a great night out with a few friends or the family. I didnt say anything about the restaurant that is also included at the location since I havent eaten there. I havent heard or read any raving reviews about it so I think for the time being Ill forgo the bowling alley restaurant.

This was probably the worst place I have been. 1. No menu inside the theater, we have to order food outside before the show starts. When I checked at ticketing they said i will be given a menu inside. If no menu inside, why do they call Recline and Dine?? funny.. 2. Food was served in a togo box. I was expecting at least plates and silverware. 3. No courtesy to give even tissue papers along with food, may be they expect us to lick our fingers clean. Still there is no count on the number of places they ask for tips.. 4. Food was horrible, half baked pizza is what I got!! They also have bowling alley, and it is 34$ per hour and $350 for renting a pair of bowling shows.. Yeah, US$350 for renting shoes.. They said the shows is made of carbon fiber and laced with platinum. It has diamond studs inside which will massage your foot just by reading your brain waves.. How else will they justify $350 for renting bowling shoes!! I have been to Studio Movie Grill before, and that experience was 100 times better than these guys.

My experience here has always been a pleasant one. It tends to be a little crowded on the weekends but rightly so. I found the layout to be a little confusing and overwhelming my first time here but you get the hang of it. The movie theater is awesome! The seats are spacious, comfortable, and they recline. My only complaint is that due to the seats being leather they can cause your back to become sweaty during a lengthy film. The bowling alley is also great and has cozy couches for your party to sit on. The bowling balls do have weird finger holes which forced me to use a heavy ball than Id normally use. Also it gets really hot on the lane despite the fans blowing. Lastly, the mini arcade is nice with fun games to play. There are also some really cool prizes for kids to win including an Xbox 360. I really like how the card used to play the games also keeps track of your tickets earned. It really makes the experience that much more enjoyable! This place is a must if youre looking for something fun to do!
