Not too pricey and if you can't find something here to have fun with friends or family then you're probably not trying all all. If you're familiar with Strike, then this is as good as any - well set up with all the regular options for amusement. If you're not, then here's a place with 10 pin bowling, laser tag, karaoke, escape rooms, Pool/Snooker and bar etc. Friendly and helpful staff. We had a fun time doing Karaoke. There are several rooms of different sizes. We had the room that could cater for our group of 11 and could even fit more. There were good song options. The sound was good. Maybe it wasn't quite the authentic Asian Karaoke bar experience, but it still had a good vibe and it worked well (once we sorted out a couple of technical issues - which the team then compensated is for by resetting our time).The good thing about this place was that we found it was easier to book - more vacancies - than other Strike places we could get to. Maybe that was the luck of the day. Definitely worth a visit.

My friends and I paid $100 for the worst karaoke experience I've ever had. The microphones didn't work for the 1st 20 mins. When we asked for help, the staff member we talked to ripped the microphone out of my hands and didn't return it until we talked to another staff member. When the microphone finally started working, the staff member from before came in and angrily said that the entire establishment could hear our singing because for some reason, they connected our microphones to the speakers outside? It wasn't our fault that you were too incompetent to host a single karaoke session. Don't come here it's not worth your time.

My 7 year old had a great laser tag party at Strike Macquarie. We were very happy with laser tag, party room & quality of food. The venue thought through everything required including boxes for left over pizza to take home and cutlery for birthday cake etc. Our host was Maryee - was excellent. We we were lucky to have her. The venue & staff were very flexible. Two of the kids were nervous in the dim laser tag room but the staff kindly arranged ten pin bowling as an alternative for them. I would definitely recommend to other families.

  • Ellie T

AMAZING!!! Laura & Jackie made our visit 100% better. I haven't laughed so much in ages. My husband and I did an escape room (he was useless) then we took to the bowling lanes (I was useless). Laura & Jackie had us laughing from the get go and even challenged us to a game. They went above and beyond making sure we had a good time and honestly even though we sucked at the escape room I would 1000% give it another go if I knew Laura would be looking after us. 10 out of 10 recommended. Thanks again guys.

  • Sheryn Payne

I have been bowling every Thursday for over a year with my client, C, who has Downs Syndrome. It has become a second home for her and she loves every minute. She has very specific needs because of her disability and the staff have been exceptionally accommodating. A very special thank you to Jess, who has anticipated C's needs and gone out of her way to make it a great experience every time. Excellent venue and thank you again Jess for your kindness.

  • Lou Anstock-Girdlestone

We came in on Friday with the honest intention of having one and going home but with the pool tables, amazing cocktails, prices and most importantly: the staff - a special shout to Kye and Jess! - we ended up staying until last call and then coming back for round 2 on Saturday. Really lovely bar made up of a really lovely team who made us feel welcome and adventurous to try other drinks away from our usual. You guys have gained some regulars!

  • Pim Kulk

We arrived for our jailbreak escape room session and were greeted by friendly and professional staff. Staff sat us down in a quiet booth and explained the game in a simple and efficient manner. We were escorted into the escape room one behind the other with hands on shoulders and eyes closed. At the end of the experience, staff were helpful and answered questions enthusiastically. We would definitely try to escape Strike again!

  • Carl Luiker

We did the Moonshot escape room! It was for amateurs though we still needed a clue or two. Maryye was great with us the second we came out, checking if we had any questions and offering us to take a photo on the polaroid camera which turned out to be a super cute photo! Also offered us some $6 escape room themed shots? Loved the service! Very cool venue surprised to see it wasn't busier on a Friday night.

  • Jen A

Had a great experience with the laser tag & bowling party for my 12 yo son! Everyone from Strike was a pleasure to deal with. From the helpful Simone from event reservations, to Jess our great and fun party host, to Chef Dennis for preparing a hearty and delicious pizza & chips for everyone. Highly recommend booking your party here. The boys had so much fun! Many thanks team Strike!

  • Diana Yee

The food service was quite slow for the kids food. The host did a good job in getting things i needed when asked. But it seemed like i had to keep chasing things up. Also there were a lot of changes made , the host was not updated with the new details she had to keep doubling checking the things needed . Besides that the kids had a great time, which is the most important thing.

  • Isabella Ellard

Maryye and James were amazing at helping my big party out. We were a bit of a handful but they were so lovely in assisting us throughout the night while we did karaoke and laser tag. Their incredible service definitely makes me want to return for any future events or even just to participate in the activities strike have to offer. Thank you again to those incredible people <3

  • Alyssa Burman

The organisation in the lead up and management of our party group on the day of the party was so seamless. Major thanks to Kate who went above and beyond to accomodate everything we could have needed and anticipated those things we hadn’t realised we would need! Kate was incredibly helpful, always beautifully cheerful and all while managing a thousand tasks on a busy day!

  • Paul Falzon

We booked Strike Macquarie for my sons 9th Birthday party. My wife and I were very impressed by how organised everything was to ensure the kids were entertained and fed. Mary was the young lady looking after our party and she did amazing job and seemed very experienced in managing a group of children. The kids had plenty if pizza to eat which they enjoyed very much.

  • L V

Today was my son’s first day trying the laser tag. The application for the booking wasn’t working properly, so Laura came and give us a hand. She was wonderful, super helpful. She went above and beyond and made our day. I have not doubts why she is the manager!. Thank you Laura for your amazing customer service, we’ll be back soon …

  • Daylin Roper

Had an amazing night, Mary was so kind to us both and was very helpful with our questions and requests, would definitely recommend going again. Bowling was fun and not rushed at all, we ended up doing an Escape Room as well and had a blast. Drinks get discounted after that, and the service all night was lovely. 10/10 experience

  • Sam

We had our son's 11th bday party here and they were wonderful! The party host Kate H was amazing, she was excellent with the boys and ran the laser tag and tenpin bowling very well. She was so friendly, punctual and well organised. We all had a blast and would highly recommend for all parents looking for a party venue!

  • Sharon

Had a good time with mates on the weekend. We pre-booked and prepaid for a reservation via their online booking system on their website. Everything went smoothly at the venue and it was fun to play bowling. We also played a session of Laser Tag. Staff were friendly and gave clear instructions. I would come back again.

  • Wei Ping Yue

Staffs and services at Strike Macquarie are wonderful. A special thanks to our party host Marcus. He is great and did an amazing job to ensure everything goes smoothly. Marcus has great experience and communication skills, keeping us informed every step of the way. Thank Marcus for running a great party for the kids.

  • Sarah Verity

Great location for our teen's birthday - laser tag and bowling, along with freshly cooked, delicious food served in the event room. And the team looked after us - the parents! We all had a really fantastic time, the Strike team and the atmosphere was super fun. We wouldn't hesitate to book another party here again.

  • Amy Liu

  • Jill Radford

Organised some of my daughter's friends to do an escape room, laser tag and bowling for her 12th birthday. The girls had a blast, the staff were friendly, happy and available to help. Great facilities with table space for parents to sit during the activities and for the girls to open gifts and eat cake at the end.

  • John Moujalli

4 months ago. Kids love coming here. Awesome atmosphere 18th January 2020. Very dissatisfied. Food was over cooked (chicken tenders) was disgusting. Especially The Pup. Orderded kids meals but no drinks came out. Ordered 2 jugs of soft drink and was charged $28.. Changed the rating from a 5 to a 2. Not happy.

  • Marie Debes

Kate & Prenav thank you for a phenomenal birthday! These two staff members were exceptional in their service. They were so patient with all party members and made it so fun!!! Highly recommended! My son is already asking for another birthday at strike next year! Thanks again to these wonderful staff members!

  • John Ma

First time booking but the experience far exceeded my expectations. The package included plenty of food and drinks for the kids and the facilities were first class. A special thank you to our assigned host Kate who really went above and beyond for looking after our group which really made the difference.

  • Elise Allen

Tonight we were celebrating a birthday with an escape room, and to add to the joy of the night Maryye offered a free shot (Jam donut flavour!) for the birthday girl, along with a sweet deal on bowling and great drink recommendations, the night couldn’t have gone any better, we left feeling like VIPS

  • Rhea Pathak

My group and I went for bowling and an escape room, all the staff there were so friendly! Funny bartenders, along with Steph who was our guide for the escape room(jailbreak which was great!) and she was awesome! She was really funny and super friendly:) Overall a great experience:)

  • Jaye Hall

Amazing escape rooms! The easy ones can be completed with only two adults. The staff are super friendly & share in your cheers when you escape. The bar next to the rooms is a great way to unwind after playing a room, though I'd honestly just come back for the drinks and service.

  • dogs&drawings !

10/10 service! Staff members are so friendly and go out of there way to make the experience special. The vibe of the venue is super cool, and the music is great! Special shout-out to Miranda, she is excellent with the kids parties and really made my group’s day! ✨⭐️ …

  • Kristine Castalone

Just had my child’s 10th birthday party here. Did the laser tag party option, and we had Mary as a party host. All in all, it was a very chill stress-free event. Kids had a great time (and I enjoyed not having to worry about entertaining or feeding them). Highly recommended.

  • Jade Zane

I came there today and literally all the staff were outstanding. So accomodating and helping me book different activities for all my kids. The three staff at the front (I know Jade was one of them) were exceptional. We always go to strike but today was worthy on a review

  • amelia grant

Martyye provided the most phenomenal service, super friendly and fun and genuinely added to the night. As someone who works in hospo and retail I love seeing people love their jobs and engage with their customers in a way that somehow adds more fun to the night.

  • lau mariela

Great Staff service we were able to use our discovery vouchers and we did bowling was good but what, we enjoy the most was the scape room! So much fun! We will go try later on if God allows it , another scape room on strike. 100% Recommended go and have fun.

  • P D

Really good experience. All 12 under 10 boys enjoyed themselves bowling and laser tag. Staff were really helpful and considerate. Reserved a pool table for the group without us asking to keep the group occupied until laser tag time. Thanks Strike Macquarie

  • Eva Harvey

We hosted our 8 year old's birthday party at Strike, and the whole thing was made so easy. The staff were very attentive and helpful. We had a great party host who kept the children engaged the whole time. Would highly recommend for a fuss-free kids party.

  • Josine Ferlito

What a great experience for the whole family. A lovely atmosphere, clean, not too loud, lovely staff. Lots of great food options. They do kids parties and the shoes are super cute and were not gross !! I will definitely return and you should try it out!!

  • Tony Shen

  • Ashley Delaney

My friends and I did 2 escape rooms, forensics and jail break with the help of Amy. Both were super fun and challging despite half of us not completing one. Amy and Trish were both great about explaining the puzzels we missed. A super fun experience!

  • Monireh Rostailichaei

This is my first time at this place and it was great. The hostess, Kate, was very nice towards the kids and was always organised with the activities. The place was overall quite clean and everyone had a lot of fun. Would recommend. …

  • Celia Valles

Amazing place! We came as a group of 6 to have good time after work. Thank you so much for everyone working tonight, James, Kye and Maryye, you are legends! We came right on time for the happy hour, and asked if we could do any escape room.

  • Joshua Keepkie

James and kye are absolute legends, they helped us from booking a lane all the way thought to the end, constantly asking if we needed any assistance to not hesitate to ask and they were always there for us. Give them a pay rise please!!

  • Anonymous User

Customer service is simple and unproblematic; some days its better than others. The bar is relatively inexpensive with a wide variety of drinks, which you can enjoy as you play bowling, pool, sing karaoke or try your hand at laser tag.

  • Jenny Boyd

Amazing service. We were met at the door and served straight away even though it was busy. A glitch with the pins was addressed promptly and we were gifted a free game to compensate for the inconvenience. Very friendly, helpful staff.

  • Mi Yeong Lee

We had a birthday party for my son and all the boys had a fantastic time. Strike provided such an amazing experience and proactive service was 10/10. Lots of thanks to Cassi and Kate who kindly assisted a massive group of boys!! :)

  • Jeff Lum

A fantastic place to hold work/social functions. Perfect for kids birthday party's. The party host we had was very attentive looking after the kids activities. The in-house baked pizza was very good with a side of hot chips.

  • Salin Suwatcharaphan

We had our boy birthday party there and had Isabel taking care of us. She is so nice with the kids, led them to laser tags and bowling. The kids had fun with her which means less work for parents highly recommended!! …

  • Beth “Simba rulz” Carblis

Danica was nice with a smile. Room was way to small. Service was terrible. Food took forever. Service in general was terrible. A waste of money. Will not be returning or recommending it to anyone. What a rip off.

  • Erin Walker

Asha was absolutely amazing! Hosted our escape room, she really got into character it’s so amazing seeing people still put effort into their customer service jobs these days! Would come back again 100%

  • Joshua Sacca

It looks really cool and there is a good vibe due to the music and aesthetics. Cocktails are surprisingly good ingredients but are not full strength. Bowling itself is overpriced at $20pp per game.

  • Chahana Bajracharya

Go to for any kind of event. I've done karaoke, played pool and laser tag and it was amazing. The bar service was great and their house drinks are amazing. Can't wait to try the escape rooms next.

Maryye deserves a raise! A few friends and I were celebrating a birthday with an escape room and Maryee provided high energy customer service that left us in hysterics. 10/10 would recommend
