👍👍 Not my first event at Grinders and definitely won't be my last. Most recently I was here for Awolnation and 311 and it was a blast! It's pretty easy to check in- it's a side entrance, do the usual with the metal detector and bag search, scan your ticket and boom you're in. There's a couple lines so...

We got the tequila flight and KC Ranch Water. I enjoyed both quite a bit. The vibe was bright and on point. The clientele was e...

👍👍 Went with a group of 6 for a birthday celebration and had a great time. If you play the 3 courses available, only 3 people at a time can play. You have your own server at each course with specialized drinks offered at each one. First week opened, so have a few "kinks" to work out in the kitchen and...
