Our team at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, TFS and the Preschool, recently held a staff retreat at Strike and Barrel in Wake Forest, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The venue provided the perfect mix of entertainment, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere that made for a truly memorable event.
From bowling and pool to axe throwing and simulated golf, there was something for everyone to enjoy. Each activity added to the fun, creating a fantastic bonding experience for our entire staff. The facility was well-maintained, and the staff was friendly and accommodating, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
The food was another highlight of the afternoon—delicious and well-prepared, adding to the overall enjoyment of our time there. Whether you're planning a corporate event, a family gathering, or just a fun night out, Strike and Barrel is a fantastic choice for all ages.
We highly recommend Strike and Barrel for any group looking for a great time in a lively and engaging setting!
Fun atmosphere, awesome customer service, delicious food, and tons of activities for everyone to enjoy. The staff really took care of us and made it a great night. This is how a bowling and entertainment spot should treat its guests. Highly recommend!
Busy. There are no reservations for at least the simulators, so I bet none. It's very odd and not good for planning..."wait list" only. Axe throwing was fun. There's lots to do here. The food was good. The service was friendly.
When my friend told us “let’s go to strike!” I said “sure”. But here between us I DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS “strike “ OR WORDT, HOW TO PLAY IT! You can see my disappointment in this pic. But let me tell you; I loved it, except wearing those “dirty “ shoes haha. Customer service was fantastic, the ladies and the gentleman at the front desk were very attentive. The menu and the meals were great and I definitely recommend this place to hang out with friends, family, children etc. Oh, it’s not just bowling. You have many other games to enjoy with your kiddos and not so kiddos as well. And last but not least, you can also celebrate your birthday hurray 💪🏻🎆🥳. Sorry I didn’t take more pictures because I was so excited 😆
By the way, you have to pay to play balls and all the other games I mentioned before, so please don’t forget your wallet 🪪 (renting shoes for 3 of us+ one hour of bowling was $47)
I love strike and barrel! I can’t believe how much more they have added, we did bowling and axe throwing and also enjoyed food and drinks. Such a great time :)
