Reviews for Fourth Dimension Fun Center in Frederick, MD
Really fun place. I take my kids for birthdays and fun days. Like lots of stuff nowadays, it can be pricey ... Look for their... specials like the pancake breakfast and bowl ... Well worth it. One issue ... Tip is included and there are a few signs aroundbut it's easy to miss those while a tip line still shows up on the tab. I'm all for paying wait staff well, but the tipautomatically added is 18% and if you miss that fact and still tip, we're talking 36% tip. Have fun. Read more

Absolutely a horrible experience during a birthday party for an 11 year old. The package included bowling, laser tag, and arcade... cards. There was no organization when arriving. The ?host? did not assist in any way setting up the bowling lanes. There was nowaitress (or the host) around for ordering any food/drinks for the adults. When moving to the party room, there was pizza anddrinks already in the room, but no host. The host was not present in the room at all and therefore didn?t help with giving outpizza or drinks to the kids. In fact, while the birthday boy was opening presents, the host actually came in to pull the MOTHERof the birthday boy away so they could take care of payments. Apparently the host didn?t think it was important for the mom tobe in the room while her son opened gifts! Moving on to Laser Tag, the team member in charge was absolutely rude to the kids(all around 6-11 years old) when going over the use of the equipment and rules. While I understand the need for rules, theextreme prejudice that they were enforced was excessive. One kid did a ?spin move? and was removed from the game. The birthdayboy came ?in contact? with one of his friends at the party and was also removed from the game. The birthday boy didn?t even getto play the entire time with his friends, just kicked out. There were no warnings given, just immediate removal. One of the 6year old girls was ?running? (more like speed walking honestly) and also was also removed from the game. According to the parentof the birthday boy more than half of the kids didn?t even get to play the whole game because they were removed for one reasonor another. This was also a PRIVATE game, so it?s not like the kids didn?t all know each other or were playing with people otherthan those that were here for the birthday party. The worst part was that the Team Member in charge of the game actually madethe birthday boy CRY at his own party. How is this kind of person even allowed to work around Read more
The kids had a fantastic time the games were really nice. The staff was really nice. The food took way longer to come out than... it should have but it tasted pretty good. We would return Read more

Completely unorganized. BAD: Food: - To start their water does not taste like water it has a HORRIBLE TASTE. It wasn't just tap... water, it was worse. We switched to Coke and they brought us Diet Coke! Seriously! Finally we got regular coke about 30min fromthe time we originally ordered drinks. - We ordered nachos and waited maybe 40min for them to come out cold, with the cheesehardened and then less than 5 minutes later our main entrees come out. - We were rarely checked on. - Table was never cleared,our plates stacked up. - We had to go up to the bar by ourselves to get drink refills because our server was rare to befound. Bowling: - We signed up for 8 people and they said an hour wait, 15 min in our buzzer goes off and they say theyaccidentally gave the same # to multiple people. UNORGANIZED! - Hour in our buzzer goes again and they tell us they have 1 lanefor our group of 8! Are you kidding me at this point, 8 people on one lane will not finish in 1 hour. So we have to wait evenlonger for a second lane. - We paid for shoe rentals and they handed my boyfriend 2 right shoes! How completely pathetic!(Attached a photo) GOOD - Our server was polite and friendly - The Chicken Caesar wrap was actually really good! Overall gladwe got to spend some time with family but it was a bad experience. Read more
Great indoor experience for children. The arcade and bowling area is entertaining. The prices are reasonable and the weekly... specials make it worth while. The staff is friendly and the food is of good quality considering the type of establishment. Read more
MAIN POINT/UPDATE: I tried this place out again today and I can confirm that it's simply "Over-Priced Dave and Busters at... home". The service is slow, the obscured arcade prices are very high, and the drinks are underpoured (they use half jiggers tomeasure shots) . Please note, I was the DD, I arrived, and left sober. Frederick has SO much more to offer don't waste you timeor money here. TLDR: DON'T BOWL HERE!!!! I really wanted to like this place, but had one of the worst overpriced bowlingexperiences of my life. I'll go back and try some of the other experiences and update my review at that point, but my initialimpression is that they're trying to do too much with the space they're given. The result is a confusing space, with subparattractions and overpriced everything. Let's start with the positive: The staff was kind, and the food was surprisingly good.We got chips and salsa, and boneless wings with fries. The salsa was spicy and house-made and the fries were thick, crispy wellseasoned spiral-cuts. The drinks were also well made and properly poured. The arcade was pricy but had a good selection,including a large Halo rails shooter that I found to be a lot of fun! The bad: The "boutique" bowling was overpriced for whatyou're getting. The lanes were cramped and felt thinner than usual, the seating area was tiny, with each lane getting whatamounts to half a coffee table. The cheap string-operated pin-reset system was inaccurate, and is usually found at morevalue-oriented alleys. Finally you pay for 1 hour, and they put the time on the screen so you can watch it tick-down. Thissomehow manages to be both stressful and tacky, and certainly makes you hesitant to order a full meal. The whole experience wasstressful and thoroughly unenjoyable, and I would not recommend it to anyone. The pictures I'm attaching look good, but payattention to the seating area and the lane lane sizing....don't be fooled. I suspect the bowling experience is the symptom o Read more
