I was looking for a place to celebrate my son’s 10th birthday that offered laser tag, video games, and plenty of fun—and Doyles Outpost was the perfect choice! The kids had an absolute blast playing laser tag and video games. The service was excellent, and the food was surprisingly good as well. We would definitely return to Doyles Outpost for more fun in the future!

Service can be better. You have one bar tender and he is all over the place. They brought us the food not even bother to tell us the food was for us until 20 minutes! By the time we ate food was cold. It needs to be better organized. Bathrooms were disgusting, filthy. Place seems run down. I guess is ok for children. Not very adult friendly.

Went to Doyle's Outpost for a friend's kid's birthday party on a Saturday afternoon. The place was busy with multiple other parties going on simultaneously, but the arcade is big enough to find an open console; so it was still fun. I didn't play laser tag, but they appear to have two bays the kids said it was fun. You can see inside the laser tag area on one of the TVs by the door. The bar area was decent. A good selection of drink options and QR code menu to make it easier than trying to read the two large menu screens that are constantly changing above the bar. The food was also good for a bar type menu. The staff was pleasant. Game prices seem reasonable. I would come back. Thanks!

Sat at the bar for 15 minutes as bartenders consistently walked past without acknowledging us, except to toss menus at us and walk away without saying hi. Sorry your half empty spot was such a hard experience for you guys! Make sure you don't work too hard.

PRO: Kids can totally run around in here. Laser tag is awesome. food is pretty good. Big open area so it's easy to see everything going on from the front lobby. CON: seating is all in the back, games are all in the front so parents need to post up near door to watch kids. Not many arcade games, but that also gives lots of visibility to watch kids at games.

Came in and sat for 15 minutes without being acknowledged a single time. Got up and left without anyone caring. Horrible service.

This place was an overall 5 stars for me and my friends! It was the perfect pregame spot for my fiancé’s birthday two nights ago especially with their happy hour from 5-8pm. The staff were great! They were personable, fun, made us laugh and made great drinks. Great happy hour prices too! We also did laser tag and their laser tag area is huge with two levels. we definitely got our cardio in and had a blast before we left for the rest of the nights birthday festivities. i was surprised that we even stayed as long as we did as i was only planning for us to stay maybe an hour and a half but we stayed for about 3 hours. we got there around 7pm and left around 10ish. this place is underrated for sure!

I went here with my son on Sunday at 3:00PM to play laser tag. We were told they had no open games until after 6:00PM. This is fine, but can you advise this on your site before we show up at your door with an excited young child who is ready to have fun.

Tal & Natese are awesome

Literally no reason for any adult to go to Astro in Shirlington when this perfect, clean arcade exists with games that both kids and adults would love. Their laser tag room is SO well-done you would never expect it. This place is great, just go. The drinks are fire and their deals make it worth it.
I came here to drink beer and play laser tag. My laser tag equipment died immediately and the staff was nowhere to be found. Beer/happy hour was ok.

Confirmed our birthday and submitted a deposit and they called less than a week before the event to say they couldn’t his the party. Horrible experience and ruined event. Stay away.

I can’t speak for the laser tag because I didn’t go to it. This is for the arcade portion.
Be advised. There are NOT a lot of games here. Also ALOT of them do not work. On top of they are expensive as heck.
You are better off at Chuck E Cheese or Dave & Buster’s I swear.
They are understaffed it seems.
And the establishment is very confusing on trying to find it, get it and how to even make a purchase.
Go there and you will see what I mean. Staff were ok. Although it was only one person that acknowledge everyone was just ‘there’.
I don’t know about food or drinks. I didn’t trust it.
But I don’t recommend this place.
It won’t last forever.

Our experience was a bit underwhelming. We had our son’s laser tag birthday party here and found that there was a lot of idle time to pass (and ended up spending quite a bit extra on arcade credits to fill this time). They were very short-staffed which meant that the “dedicated party host” the website promises was in and out as she was able and that we weren’t totally sure what was supposed to be happening when. For the most part the kids had fun and the laser tag arena was quite cool, but ultimately it felt like a lot of money for two quick rounds of laser tag, pizza, and chicken tenders.
