I've been here a few times during the week AND the weekend, and I can say that even though it gets busy, these guys find a way to make sure I feel taken care of! The food is pretty filling (I recommend the grilled chicken sandwich) and the drinks are made with fresh ingredients! As in, the whiskey sours are made with fresh lemon juice and simple syrup instead of that lazy sour mix... Overall, it's a place that has a nice vibe whether I want a quick drink and dart game or whether I want to have a meal with friends before heading out into the night. Better than the frozen tater tots and chicken tenders you find anywhere else in the area!

went here for bowling but everything was closed off for private parties (which we weren’t told about when we called). Our table all ordered different things but they were all bad - soggy buns, cold fries, overdone burger, etc. Our server wasn’t super attentive and was honestly kind of rude (avoiding us when we made eye contact, walking past multiple times when we were signaling w our menus or glassware). When we weren’t ready the first time they came by (less than 2 minutes after getting seated) they didn’t really come back. I think they came to our table 4 times over our 3 hour visit. I asked for a new bun because mine was soggy when our food came out and falling apart. I was told that that’s just how it comes and getting a new one wouldn’t make a difference. anyways: food wasn’t good. and there were no available activities. super lame and a waste of time! Won’t be back.

I've been ordering over the phone Togo orders, I work down the street so I don't have time to walk up, order wait and get back to work. Eats up too much time. All the sudden the manager who answers the phone says they don't take orders over the phone never have. I'm like....... I've done it several times, she has the audacity to ask me which employee was it she she can have a chat with them. I reply with no. I still walk my happy @ss over order and she feels the need to still come over numerous times, as I ignore her, to try to tell me "policy". I inform her that this'll be the last time I come and thank you. She still feels the need to come back and tell me that she's not ok with how I talk to her. Which was not talking actually and ignoring her...... whatever Punch Bowl Social..... it's 2023..... every restaurant around you. Yes EVERY, because I order from them for the past 13 years takes phone orders. Ok that's my Karen rant.

The fabulous bartender was hilarious and friendly as can be. Happily proud of their Drag persona, which would've been a HOOT at Punch Bowl Social! So much more interesting than the disaffected rich twatbro's chest bumping over a pool table while sorority sisters who never mentally graduated primp on Instagram and vapidly verbalize nonsense about how hard their lives are. This chain is... So droll and cynical that it's almost offensive. I'll take a dive bar with a fryer basket and free pours over 1oz measured shots and the same fried food (but with a fancy name!!) ANY day of the week! The Yamhill Pub is real. This place is... Not! This place is frat bro central. If 30yo dudes in pink popped collared shirts is your scene, look no further! But the bartender was wonderful!

Okay, I HAVE to write a 5 star review. I can only speak on the bar inside of punch bowl social, as my friends and I didn’t have much time to spend playing games. I’m only writing this because of the bartender! We went there like 3 weeks ago- and met Joshua who, in my experience was one of the sweetest, most personable waiter/ bartender that I’ve met in a while. This person for sure deserve a raise. I had kids young so I haven’t been “out” in a VERY long time and decided to go with a bunch of my other mom friends- he made me laugh, made WONDERFUL drinks, took photos for us, got us anything we needed, and made it a point to feel very welcomed and taken care of! Joshua deserve a raise, and in a time where the world is in chaos, made it feel a little normal again. I’d come back JUST for Joshua! Not to mention he makes a MEAN lemon drop!

Always a welcoming place!!! Michael, Cris and Zane do a great job of serving me at the bar. They pay attention to the smallest details and can carry on a great conversation. I appreciate them always taking care of me. Even Sky, one of the managers, goes out of the way to turn MLB games on for me. In addition, the cauliflower nachos are awesome and are a great portion size. It’s an awesome happy hour deal. Those pork tacos are some of the best I’ve had in a long time. I shouldn’t forget Adrian or Jesse either. They are awesome on the day shift. They are both super cool bartenders. All these bartenders are an asset to the Punch Bowl Social Club brand.

I took a girl here on a date with a reservation. Unfortunately a group event was happening on the side where all the fun stuff was at so I didn’t get the full experience me and my date played giant connect 4 and Jenga but it got old pretty quick then we tried out the board games and it was okay. The carnitas fries were very delicious though not a terrible place to take a date but just make sure the space next door is free to get the full experience. Music selection was also pretty sporadic but I’m not super picky once the drinks were kicking in

Why did we not know of this place sooner?! We had a great time with our kids with out feeling like we were in a kids zone or at an adults only establishment. Very friendly and helpful employees, we were still not done eating by 11pm (kids allowed until 11pm)and instead of kicking us out in a rude manner they came to let us know 10 mins ahead and then a few mins past 11 they came and kindly asked if we were planning to stay longer or if we wanted boxes or if we needed anything else. We will definitely be coming back and bring more friends.

The fries were fantastic and the service was absolutely five star. The rest of the food fell a little flat for us, but was still good. We tasted some drinks we really enjoyed, and wish we’d done the punch bowl of “I’m on a Whiskey Diet” instead of the cocktails we settled on! The activities and atmosphere were great. (Just be aware, if you want to bowl, there are no complimentary socks! You’ll need to bring with you or purchase them if you’re not into putting your bare feet in shoes a bunch of strangers have worn.)

This location is a little on the expensive side and has limited items on the menu. Bartenders are extremely busy and it may take 10-15 mins for you to be able to get their attention if needed. (In my personal experience) This is a very popular location so I suggest calling ahead and finding out what time would work best for you so you're not struggling with getting good service and a table. The drinks and food are pretty good, but I'm not sure it's worth the wait. Just in my experience. :)

Great for a date night, fun with friends or family hangout! Only place I saw that was clean enough to have kids join in for karaoke! Bowling, video games, and good food and drinks (raspberry cider is my fave with cauliflower nachos). Highly recommend! Parking garage close by, no circling required, a plus!

The wide variety of games and activities are cool, and the food was good, but nothing spectacular. Service took a while, especially since the place felt empty, but we had a server in training so I'm willing to cut some slack on it. The biggest hit against it was how dead our side of the restaurant (the side with the bar) felt on a Sunday evening, but it seems the other side (which we couldn't see, it's a really big place) was a bit more lively.

Almost every game I played was broken in some way and they just don’t care. The guns are not calibrated, joysticks don’t register directions unless you aggressively rotate them in circles. Games break, I get it: but the staff are not trained or incentivized to care and management doesn’t care. This is just not a place to spend quarters. You will be frustrated or let down. Just go somewhere else. This place is a wreck.

Had a great time here with our kids for a 21st birthday. Bowling was expensive, but it was convenient to have something downtown. The other available games, like pool, giant Jenga, wall scrabble, etc are also fun. It's not gonna be cheap, but if you need a convenient place to entertain a group, it's a great option.

Fun anytime of day! Outdoor seating is covered if it's raining. Best drinks! This is a quote from my friend who ordered the ahi tuna salad: "I feel like the food at restaurants isn't as good as it used to be. This ahi tuna salad is so good. It reminds me of when restaurants used to care."

Punchbowl is a fun place to hang out with friends or family. They have every game imaginable, from pool, to video games to bowling, and darts. They also have our favorite activity, karaoke. The food is pretty good and the cocktails are satisfying. Our bartender was very creative with her mixology and made great suggestions. Can't wait to go back!

This place had greats service and food was good. Roasted chicken Quesadilla was so good and one of my favorites along with bison chili fries and hot wings . Halloween party was fun and bowling was so much fun.

A little on the expensive side but a great place to hang out downtown after a concert. The food is standard bar food but presentation is great. We had Rosemary and Parm fries. I don't remember what kind of punch it was but it was delicious and service size was enough for the 4 of us.

Went on Friday night to celebrate my birthday. We all had such a great time! It was my first time going here too. The vibe was great! Food was good too. Some a bit too spicy. I had the chicken tacos which were so good! Our server, Ryan, was fantastic!!! It was like he was part of the party. I'll definitely be going back!

I forget name of Server - But he was great. Place is great with type of drinks, location, food, service along with Bowling rows and lot of things to do. Highly recommend this one. Must Visit.

Great spot for a quick bite to eat before the movies. Awesome location right inside the mall. We went to grab some quick appetizers before heading to the movies. Service was surprisingly quick and the food was great. We had the garlic aioli fries and the pork tacos. Both were delicious. Fun and tasty spot.

Plenty of things to do from bowling to pool and arcade games. There's an area for darts, shuffleboard, and more activities. It's easy to switch games through the friendly service at the check out counter. Chill vibe for after hour fun with friends and family.

A really fun spot to hang with a big group of friends. Really great cocktails and decent food. Similar to a Dave and busters but less crowded and with a more wholesome / less corporate feel. Extra points for spacing around the pool table and a sweet mini shuffle board

Very happening and upbeat restaurant and bar social gathering. Greta food, wine, beer and cocktail choices. Helpful and young staff. Restaurant is located located inside the Pioneer Place Mall so its convenient to have bite and drink after your shopping.

This is a fun area with many different types of games. The service staff are nice. It is located in a mall. Prices are a little high for what they are, with some drinks coming in at $17 before tip.

They accommodated my baby shower last minute after my original plan didn't fall through last minute. The hostess and events specialist was amazing and hooked it up. My family and I really enjoyed the Punch Bowl it was an amazing venue! More

Had a great time at a birthday party here. The atmosphere was fun and lively. They take up the entire floor at the mall, with a restaurant, multiple tv,s, bars, ping pong, shuffle board, bowling, pool, darts, and a bunch of retro arcade

This was a disappointing place, we arrived between 530-6pm on Friday October 4th and requested a table for a party of 6. The place was not busy, plenty of booths and tables empty, The hostess was not very friendly it seemed like we were

The chicken quesadilla is fairlyspicy and the extra sauces make it even hotter, order it. Came here for the first time with a friend and we will both be back. The service was quick and attentive, and they had plenty of classic to more

Top notch cocktails! Friendly bartenders. Nice atmosphere. 2 fun bowling alleys (an 8 lane and a 4 lane). Some arcade games. Giant Jenga. Dart boards. Karaoke rooms. Exceptional food for catered special event/space rental.

Stopped in for a few cocktails, made very well by Adrian. She was friendly and welcoming as well. The food was overpriced for what it is, but would return for drinks.

I love this place. So much that I spent my New Years here..... BUT..... I went tonight between 8-9pm for dinner and drinks and ordered the shrimp tacos.

We were on the patio with friends from out of town. Our 1st time there. Very pleasant. Great breakfast menu and unusual but tasty bevvies! More

Happy hour tacos were good. Great place for fun entertainment with friends or small gathering. Loads of games, bowling, pool, etc. More
