Stratosphere Social

It all was okay. The service was slow but fine. The food was just okay as well. The arcade is VERY expensive. $20 was gone in minutes. A majority of games are likely several dollars per game. I didn’t do the math of points to dollars per game. Bowling is a good deal though. $40 for a lane for an hour + $5 shoes per person. I’d return to just bowl but it’s unlikely we will return to bowl.

So, perfectly fine place to go ax throwing. They have the same games/ boards as elsewhere. The service is great, and they have a full bar. The bowling lanes looked nice, but we weren't able to try them as they said they didn't have any available during 'social hour' (after two attempts on separate weeks, despite there being MANY empty lanes). The prices are quite high. But here's the reason I won't be going back - the food is comically bad! The bacon (see pic) on my burger was refrigerator cold. The white you see is congealed bacon fat. We also ordered guac and chips - the guac is served in a tiny cup and contained the pit from the avocado - this had to be on purpose. This place is an excellent idea, they just don't have a clue on how to manage an entertainment venue. They are working on the Calvin & Hobbes business model, "why sell 100 at $1 a piece, let's sell 1 for $100, instead!". They're stepping over dollars to save pennies. In any case, three chances is enough. Never setting foot inside this place again. It's comically bad.

Taking a moment to thank Luci/the Stratosphere team for making our event a success! The space was appealing, staff was friendly/timely (shout out our server, Amaya), and the food/drinks were great (we ordered pizzas, wraps, and a fruit platter). Our group loved the backyard space where we could decorate ahead of time and play the various active games like corn hole, bocci ball, and jenga. I recommend hosting your next event here!

Great place for the Eldersburg area. If you have kids or you're just looking for a hangout spot for you & your significant other...this is it. Call it an ALL in one.

The bowling, arcade, movie, etc. are all great! That gets 5 stars. The flatbread gets 1 star. That's a LOT of severely undercooked cheese there 😅 Maybe cut the cheese in half and double the bake time. I hope the rest of their food is better.
