Amusement park
Concert hall
Six Flags America, located in Maryland, started as a safari park in 1974 before transforming into a theme park and joining the Six Flags family. Spanning over 500 acres, it offers an array of attractions including Looney Tunes-themed rides for kids, thrilling roller coasters, and a water park. The park is divided into six themed areas such as Main Street 1776 and Gotham City. Visitors can enjoy over 50 rides and shows suitable for all ages.
I absolutely love Six Flags. Definitely one of my favorite amusement parks I’ve ever been to. I always came here multiple times during the summer as a kid so I had to come one last final time. before they close for good. Some of their rides were shut down, but we still had a great time. The workers are super nice and polite. I’m glad my kids got to come at least one time before they shut down for good. We had such a great time but also sad knowing this will be our last time here for good and this place will set vacant. I do recommend buying tickets online since they’re half off? I also recommend getting a souvenir cup for $20 so you can get free refills for the rest of the day and you can keep the cup as a little memory.

THIS REVIEW WILL SAVE YOU MONEY. The park closes permanently in November. If you plan to go before it does, buy the standard ticket. I promise there is NO need to buy a fast pass of any kind as the park is mostly empty even on weekends. If you buy a single meal deal, there’s about a $4 cost savings if you order your meal and drink from Jonny Rockets ($28 regular and $24 with the meal deal ticket). My wife and I enjoyed the rides and the theme park, and we hope they build something similar there.

Pretty sad to see this place closing down. I surprisingly had a better time here than SFNE. I just thought that here, everything wasn't crammed into one little space like over there. Although, Six Flags New England has some nice buildings. Back to Six Flags America. It wasn't very crowded. On days where it's busy, the I'll expect the lines to be 2 hours each because these operations are BAD. There were only running one train on half of the coasters and it took them about 3 minutes to dispatch each train. They were only running on gondola on Voodoo Drop and it still took like 2 minutes. I hope their operations get better because this park is closing in less than a month. I did have a great time for my 4 hours there even though it rained (the reason why I only stayed there for 4 hours.) Come check this place out before closing on 11/2/25

I love this place! 🙃🥳My daughter & i will most certainly miss our home state amusement park. I been coming here since I was 9 in the "adventure world" to "wild world" days. I'm very sad to see Six Flags not invest in the park overall that much since 2000. However, what they added since are great flat ride additions. If it got its fair share of investment $ along the years since superman was added, I think it would still have survived the cutting board. What a shame😭 That being said, I hope everyone got their fun in by now. If not, this weekend will be the final hooray! I'm sure we'll be there getting our last kicks in, weather is looking good so far! ✌🏽😎

Despite the park closing permanently very soon, I had a great time here! All the Roller Coasters had no wait on a Sunday, and we got to ride them all a few times. Park was clean, and the shows were good. Operations were quite slow (granted it is closing soon, and no crowds) but still kind of annoying. All the roller coasters were quite fun, favorites being Superman: Ride Of Steel, Jokers Jinx, and Wild One.
Brennon H — Google review
I visited this park knowing about the coming closure in November. Overall, it was a good experience and I had some fun. The only downside to my experience was that three out of the eight roller coasters were closed that day. This is a big deal considering there aren’t that many to begin with. The crowds were not too bad and most of the coasters only ran one train. The park is nice and offers some cool places such as the new steam town. On the other hand, there are some areas that do not look well kept. The staff were friendly when running the rides. I would like to come back one day, however, because of the closure I would not return.
Brody H — Google review
I know that this park is closing next month so I went one last time. I was disappointed that Superman: Ride of Steel, and Batwing was closed. I went on 6 rides and the wait time was 5 minutes or less. Ragin Cajun had a longer wait so I didn't go on that ride. I was going to ride Harley Quinn Spinsanity but they were having a problem getting the seat belts to lock so I got out of line. The rides that I went on were very rough. I didn't want to ride them again. I saw 3 shows and they were very good. It's sad that the park is closing but the roller-coasters need to be replaced.
Leya C — Google review
My first time here was the last day the park was open. Kind of hard to believe they'd want to close that park. The grounds were clean, the staff was professional, I even saw a ride operator pick up a piece of trash off of the floor that a guest had dropped. Almost forgot it was a six flags park lol. It just feels like their corporate daddy is deciding to close the park because it's not a big money maker, but it's hard to believe it's losing them money. So much history and large part of people's lives and jobs gone because someone at the top wants to make a quick buck versus putting in the time and money to make it a truly great park. It's sad l and I hope this isn't a repeat of astroworld. Six flags just completed a merger last year with cedar fair so there's a bunch of parks that are close together. Closing this park was just getting rid of some "redundancy." I honestly expect to see more closings where there's another park close by over the next decade or so.

Nature & Parks
Watkins Regional Park is a sprawling outdoor destination offering a wide range of recreational activities for families. The park features a historic Gustav Dentzel Carousel, a miniature train, and an 18-hole miniature golf course. Visitors can also explore the Old Maryland Farm and interact with friendly farm animals. Additionally, the park boasts expansive picnic areas, playgrounds, and scenic walking trails for leisurely strolls.
Saturday, June 14, 2025 – Juneteenth Festival at Watkins Regional Park What an amazing day! We had the pleasure of attending the Juneteenth Festival 2025 at Watkins Regional Park, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. The celebration brought together art, culture, and community in a powerful way. The festival was a vibrant Arts and Heritage Celebration that honored the spirit of Juneteenth with live bands, horseback rides, delicious food vendors, and a variety of fun activities spread throughout the park. From the music to the cultural showcases, it was a day filled with joy, education, and unity. Grateful to be part of such a meaningful event that celebrates freedom, creativity, and heritage. Looking forward to coming back next year!

So, I haven't been to here in quite some time. There's a reason this is a reginal park...it's huge! I've been here multiple times either for personal leisure with my kids or during the Christmas light show each year. We only went to the playground but, wow, they did an amazing renovation to the playground. It's like a fairytale-like playground that seems like it needs its own storybook. The colors are so vibrant and beautiful. There are so many gadgets, slides, barnes, houses; trinkets, and much more! There's so much open space, picnic spaces, pavillions; grills, trails, so on, and so forth. Usually, I have to supplement the entertainment for my kids by being an imaginary monster. However, this time around, they didn't even think of asking me they just ran straight to the playground and started engaging with all its wonderful intricacies. Now that I'm aware of this newfound renovation, this park will definitely make the top two list of playgrounds we visit regularly. You gotta check it out, especially if you have kids and need to entertain them. Let me know your thoughts. I can't wait to hear what you have to say.

This is a really great park. If you’re considering going, I do recommend you go and try it out. I wish the train and carousal opened earlier. They open at 11 while the “farm” opens at 10. My toddler usually naps around 11-12, so we needed to be on the 1115 am train and go home so she wouldn’t be to grumpy. Apparently parents literally sit in their cars and wait for the train to open, because I walked around the farm from 10:45-11:15 only to be told tickets were already sold out until the 12:15 pm train. That was a huge bummer. The carousel was also mediocre. Even the bigger kids on the animals seemed underwhelmed, particularly when the employee ran laps and danced to his maid instead of playing the classic ride music. It was just weird. The playground is fantastic. Try to avoid summer camps that frequently go here, the staff barely supervises them and they are not well behaved. One stuck his hands up my dress and another wiped his snot nose on my 2 year old. Otherwise, the actual equipment is varied and there’s something for every age. The design is creative.

I've only ever been to the park during the holiday lights event. Today was my first time walking the paved paths...I loved it. I participated in a 5k and this park is beautiful! Its well maintained, filled with friendly passersby and at over 800 acres it contains space for multiple activities to occur simultaneously. Great example of gorgeous Prince George's!

This is my family's favorite park! We love the nature center: outdoor aviary w/ birds of prey, bridge, ponds, water feature, butterfly garden and outdoor amphitheater. There are also paved trails. That was just about the nature center and its immediate surrounding area! We also love the drive thru Christmas Lights! They added a carriage ride that we haven't tried yet. We always roll down the windows to listen to the big 🌲 tree play songs. We get hot cocoa on our way to the Festival of Lights and sip and sing and laugh and chat our way through every year! We love attending big community events there too. The parking and organization is always well thought out. The accessibility options are good (I'm speaking from my stroller experiences, not a personal mobility limitation). I love tent camping. Watkins isn't my favorite camping spot, but it not bad at all. They have a youth group area. The spots have trash cans and fire pit/grills. There is a bathhouse with hot/cold running water, flush toilets, and showers. It's big enough and has enough overhang space that a bunch of people can shelter there for a storm. The location is ideal for new campers. There is a road and civilization close by! There is a 711, CVS, Wendy's and Chipotle in walking distance! Must cross the intersection for the grocery store, McDonald's, Negrille (good Caribbean food), and Duncan. The carousel and train don't run every day, but you can look up the times. We like the put put golf and farm animals too. And, there good trees for climbing on the way to the animals. It's a great park, and they keep improving!

The trails at this park are great with paved and natural walkways. Natural trails are marked with painted patches on trees which could be retouched with fresh paint.
Owl — Google review
Wonderful park with loads to do. Worth the trip from DC. The playground was nice and had a lot for kids to do. Probably better for older kids (4+) than toddlers. The nature center was great! Lots of animals and the people working there were so nice. They let the kids feed the fish while they tended to a turtle in the same tank. They didn’t have to do that, so it was very nice. There are also plenty of bathrooms all around the grounds which is great with little kids. The trails were well marked and easy to follow. The Farm had a good variety of animals and the signs were very informative. Over all a great morning spent there.

Sky Zone Trampoline Park

Amusement park
Sky Zone Trampoline Park is a chain of indoor trampoline parks that offer a variety of activities such as freestyle bouncing, dodgeball, and fitness programs. Visitors have described it as an exhilarating experience with a buzzing atmosphere and friendly staff providing quick orientations. The park features a massive trampoline area for jumping and flipping. Guests have praised the well-maintained facility and highlighted the organized birthday parties as a major attraction.
I had a small birthday glow party for my son there, and our party host, Jordan, was great! Very helpful and friendly young man. Also, the young man who checked in our party was personable and welcoming. I will say that the young lady working the register seemed unhappy to be at work, lots of heavy sighing and eye rolling when I asked her a question. She could use more time in customer service training it seems.

Sky Zone Bowie exceeded all expectations! With a plethora of trampoline activities, from dodgeball to freestyle jumping, there's never a dull moment. The facility is well-maintained and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. The highlight was definitely the well-organized birthday party we attended – everything ran smoothly, from check-in to activities to food service. Highly recommend for a fun-filled day out!

Chilllddd, welcome to the Ghettoooooo "In my NeNe Leakes voice". We came here for glow night, and they were making people wait outside in the cold - like it was preparing the children for what it is like to try to be at the club before 11.. Then, they weren't even managing the line, because people were doing the chinese cuts. Then, apparently their wifi was not working, so that made the wait extremely long- with no apology or discount. We ended up because of the wait, just proceeding, and had to pay full price for 2 hours, instead of the full-time. Further, once they got their systems back up, you would have to wait in the long food line, and then right when we got to the front they mentioned that they were not going to accept credit cards- only cash at this point. It just is not well-ran during this evening and really changed my mind on staying a member.

i’m assuming that is supposed to be someone “greeting “ me at the door & give instructions.. he was definitely whispering i could hardly understand what was being said & what to do. i already purchased tickets online & i showed him that at the door.. he told me i needed to sign a waiver didn’t show me where to do so.. long story short i ended up paying for tickets online & in the sky zone due to lack/poor communication . this was my first time at sky zone so i didn’t really know what to do.

Today I visited Sky Zone in Bowie for their Toddler Time. This was not only my first time at Sky Zone but also for a toddler event at a trampoline park. I had a very good experience. The staff was very friendly and welcoming upon our arrival. They provided a fun way to entertain a toddler without the dangers of big kids jumping. The parents can pay to jump if interested but not required. I am very appreciative that they have this specialized time just for littles! I am not sure about other locations but this site has this three times a week. Great especially when it is cold and you need an activity to tire out these high energy toddlers! I plan to return next week!

Coffee shop
Dunkin' is a beloved chain known for its signature breakfast offerings and an extensive selection of coffee beverages. While the experience can vary depending on the time of day, many patrons have noted that service tends to shine during busier hours. However, there are instances when orders may not be prepared correctly or served warm, especially as closing time approaches. Some customers have encountered issues with staff engagement; while one employee might go above and beyond to rectify mistakes, others may seem distracted by their phones.
1 young girls working Tammy she was great. The o ther 3 man working were on their phone didn’t even acknowledge I was there. I had to come back because one of the guys made the sting with no favor at all. Came back and Tammy saw me and immediately helped me fix the drink the other guy saw me and didn’t even said anything. The only reason is. 5 star is cuz of Tammy not the other 3 man not working but on their phones.
Alberto R — Google review
Depending in the time of day, the service is great. You are less likely to get a correct, and warm order when they aren't busy and not an hour before closing. Also, this location will close early and not make additional food closer to the hour before closing. I've recently gotta a completely burnt meal because they were busy and I wasn't able to go back due to more pressing engagements.

Absolutely disgusting location with unsanitary and extremely unpleasant employees. While at drive thru window, male employee was actively chewing his fingernails behind counter and handling orders; will not be coming here again and would advise others to avoid this location as well.
Courtney M — Google review
This location on Sundays has to be the worse location. Where are the adults because they aren’t paying attention to orders handing out cold food and drinks that they paid zero attention to the customers request. Please don’t ask for a napkin or a straw because the attitude you get in return is so unnecessary. I used my mobile app to avoid these mixups but yup they still happen.

Usually everything about here is 5 stars however this morning not so much and maybe it’s because I personally came too early. Ordering was a breeze it, I always get a Bacon, Egg and Cheese bagel minus the egg and a large Sweet Tea. As I anxiously wait for my food I was offered my tea first. At the very first sip it tasted like it had been there all night just sitting. Out of all of the Dunkin’s I have been to until today this location always made it perfect. One sip was enough to know I couldn’t continue to drink it, I informed the young lady when she handed me my food that it didn’t taste right. She proceeds to tell the other young lady behind the counter, she dumps it out then proceeds to make a new one however when she hands me this one she asks me to taste it in which I do. Instantly the tea taste like a combination of both tea and coffee. I don’t need a third remake to know that I just won’t be coming back for drinks in the future which is disappointing because I loved this location.

Day 2

Northwest side of town
For day 2, we recommend exploring the northwest side side of town. Start the day off with Bowie Town Center, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Prince George's Stadium. All together, your day would be filled with about 7 hours of non-stop fun.

Shopping
Bowie Town Center is an open-air complex that exudes a sophisticated yet charming atmosphere, boasting a diverse array of over 70 renowned shops and eateries. This outdoor shopping destination offers a comprehensive range of retail stores, dining options, and grocery outlets, making it an all-in-one hub for leisure and convenience. From household essentials to trendy fashion finds, this mall caters to every shopper's needs with its vast selection.
This outdoor mall is great, they have the last big book store with a Starbucks. They have a great variety of shops. The area surrounding the main strip has plenty of places to eat, and a covered bridge above the busy street to the movie theater. DO NOT TRY TO PARK OUT FRONT! It's not that hard to find a different spot right behind the stores.
Vicky R — Google review
The Town Center is clean, well lit, and you don't have a feeling of unease when you walk around. There are some excellent restaurants and shops. The anchor store Sears has long since left has been replaced by a furniture store which I don't anticipate will last very long. There was a Best Buy nearby, but that has become an outlet store. There is a Macy's, but during our visit, we did not see a lot of foot traffic going in and out. The Town Center needs to be refreshed with more entertainment venues. And I would expect to see it do really well. There was a wonderful movie theater basically across the street, but that has closed so much of the attraction to the area is now gone. So to summarize it's a nice clean location with some great ice cream shops and other restaurants. There are of course cell phone shops and other little specialty places you see in these shopping centers. So if you know what you're looking for and you know there's a store at the Town Center I would encourage you to go.

Sushi restaurant
Restaurant
Ichiban Sushi Asian Bistro is a chic and modern restaurant located in the Bowie Town Center. The newly redesigned interior features a stunning full-wall waterfall, granite bar, and stylish dark-wood tables. The menu offers a fusion of Pan-Asian cuisine with a contemporary twist, including dishes like spicy Sichuan chicken dumplings and miso-glazed sea bass. Sushi enthusiasts will appreciate the extensive selection of options such as red clam, eel, and baby octopus.
When I read the reviews, I was a little nervous, but I’m so glad I gave this place a chance! The food was fantastic—great Asian fusion dishes with so much flavor. I especially loved the sushi; it was super fresh and delicious. The manager and staff were so friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Definitely worth the visit.

This Asian restaurant has been our go-to place since we moved here a few years ago. The staff are always friendly, and the food is consistently fresh and delicious—it's the top Asian restaurant in the area. I've heard a lot of negative rumors about this place, but the fact that we keep coming back proves those claims are false.

They only get a 4 stars because of the bathrooms being out of order and open - it was a little weird! Buuuuuuut the restaurant itself was wonderful. The food was good, the drinks were strong, the place was clean, the environment was friendly, and Chole gives amazing service and a strong drink lol. Now let's address the other reviews, my first impression of this place 2 years ago was not that great, but giving them another shot was worth it and I sat at the bar solo without my newborn and my former lmao. (We still love that person) And now I love this place lol - I will be returning. I ordered the Margarita (classic), Seafood Gyoza, Surf and Turf roll, Thai Drunken Noodle-Chicken.

My experience was not this best at all. There is always one bad apple. When I first sat down, this particular waitress tossed my napkin, spoon and knife on the table.😱 At that moment I should have removed myself but I said it was a small toss so I won’t make it a big deal. Let’s keep in mind this was my first time there. I ordered the soft carp sushi spices roll. Every sushi is not made the same. Sorry to say, it was too tough for me to swallow! When I attempted to explain, her only responses was, “Everyone likes this and we make everything fresh!” Never did I challenge her that they didn’t make their food fresh. I do know that most sushi rolls are made right there when you are in the restaurant. My apologies, it was not the best for me. She never asked if she could accommodate many any other way! Bad attitude and customer service!😳 I still remained polite and continue with my lunch with an ex-coworker. The waitress went and told all her co-workers that, “I did not like the food and she wasn’t going to give me a refund along with a few other things!😱 As I kept my eye on the other waitress of how attentive she was towards her customers, I said to myself, I should have sat over there. I made sure I gave her (the kind/polite) waitress’s a compliment for her style of professionalism and to keep up with the great service. As for the waitress that waited on us, no thank you! Oh, she didn’t bring water to start, and we had to ask for a bag for leftovers! My recommendation to her is, if you are unhappy at the restaurant find another job and make sure you sign up for Customers Service Class 101 @ 9:00am!

I really like this restaurant. Every time I visit Bowie, I come here. The owner is friendly, the prices are reasonable, the ingredients are fresh, and the service is excellent! Looking forward to coming again next time.

My wife and I love sushi and decided to try this spot in our area. I don’t typically leave negative reviews, but the food and service at this location were very disappointing. We ordered hibachi with chicken, the Raven Roll and Annapolis Roll. The rolls were ok, but the chicken and vegetables left much to be desired with a weird after taste. The service was poor; our server only came to our table to take our order and deliver our food. We had to flag him over just to ask for water and our check. It’s also worth noting that a 17% gratuity is automatically included, which in any other case we typically would have tipped more.

I had a great time here but my date not so much. We arrived late and there was only a few people at the restaurant as it was very close to closing time. I ordered the calamari and she ordered a tea. When she got the green tea it smelled like a rusty pot and it tasted metallic, nothing like classic green tea. My calamari was excellent. We then ordered our entree. She got a sushi bowl salad type thing with some sushi rolls and I got general tap chicken with Jasmine rice. Well again my meal, excellent but gets not so much. One bite into the bowl and she found a nice long thick juicy hair, very healthy, good texture and black. She was obviously disgusted. She asked for a remake but for whatever reason they couldn't make get another one (I'm guessing because it was closing time). So she ate her 4 shrimp rolls and I ordered her calamari appetizer since she had some of mines and enjoyed it, plus she was still hungry. She really did not enjoy the experience but my experience was decent. The atmosphere on the place was great. It was in a great location.

Jerry's Seafood is a well-established, family-friendly restaurant known for its delicious crab specialties and other seafood options. Since its inception in 1983, it has been a local favorite, with its newest location in Bowie only adding to its popularity. The dining room at Jerry's Seafood is beautifully decorated with warm, natural colors, creating a cozy atmosphere for diners.
This is one of my favorite spots! If it weren’t for the prices, I’d definitely visit weekly. Their crab cakes are absolutely delicious, and the crab dip is fantastic as well. The last time we visited, about a week ago, our server was wonderful (I hate that I forgot his name). The service, food, and overall experience were excellent. We walked right in on a Saturday and got a table for two with no wait. Everything was served quickly and was perfectly prepared. I can’t say enough good things about this place—highly recommend it!
Bre — Google review
this was my first time at Jerrys, I had told my family I wanted a solid maryland crab cake for my birthday today and this is where we landed, while the food was good i wouldnt say it was particularly exciting or special outside the crab bomb. they start you off with a warm bread basket with butter, the entrees come with two sides I got the caesar salad and wedges. The Service here left much to be desired the managerial staff was very seemingly very selective as to what tables they chose to check on, and our waiter was absent often and while I can appreciate staggering between courses the wait times were still considerably lengthy especially given that they didn’t really get filled up until about 25 mins into my dining experience. one of my party members got the cream of crab soup which she found to be extremely bland and sent back, the oysters she had she did enjoy. they split with our other guest the crab and shrimp bomb with the house salad they both reported the salad lacked toppings and the blue cheese less than desirable. when our main courses finally arrived I can say the crab bomb was certainly the star. It was nicely filled with real lump crab meat and had a nice sauce within, and the shrimp x crab bomb combo i found to be very juicy! for my platter I found the haddock to be surprisingly well executed it was light flaky appropriately battered and flavorful I really enjoyed it , at $56 though seeing that tiny scallop on my plate next to those large shrimps was disappointing and the scallops were somewhere in between slightly overdone but also under?! weird ! the steamed shrimps were lightly seasoned, listed as devined but i did find one shrimp that definitely was not I get that no one really wants to do that to begin with but if you’re going to go through the trouble of listing that on the menu as a prime feature of a dish then please make sure that that is the case across your plates. the fried shrimps were seasoned nicely, as were the wedges! Overrall id rate the mariners plate 7 or if being nice 8 out of ten. It left more of / for something to be desired. the server when they finally got back to us did bring me a brownie for my birthday unprompted which was nice and appreciated. If i come back its definitely going to be to go! or right when they open

Food and service is always great at Jerry's. It was pretty full but no wait. Server came immediately to take our orders. I took my boyfriend here for the first time and he enjoyed it. He had the Calamari, Stuffed Shrimp, Baked Potato and Green Beans. I had the Firecracker Crab Bomb and fries. The sweet tea is a must as well.

Had an amazing business lunch at this spot. The mini crab bomb was delicious and offered up with a salad and a side of applesauce. The place was quiet when we walked in, but all the buzz upon exiting. The restrooms were clean as well. Highly recommended in you're in the Bowie area.

We stopped at Jerry’s on a Saturday around 2pm and were sat immediately but it seemed like good timing as the place filled up quickly. The service was awesome, and the food that followed was even better! The rolls they serve to start the meal are kinda unique, and fun to pull apart. The kids also enjoyed the butter balls. We tried the crab bomb firecracker style, the crab cake sandwich, kids fried shrimp with fries and apple sauce and the house salad with feta vinegar and house dressings. The crab bomb is their claim to fame- and it was basically a large crab cake, seasoned with pepper and dry mustard. It was very good, but could have used some extra garnishes, maybe pickled onions or something similar to enhance the experience and a side of butter and/ or lemon. The crab cake sandwich was a little plain, again, lacking lettuce tomato and mayo, something you would expect on a crab cake sandwich. The kids fried shrimp was large and lightly fried, delicious! The fries that went with the meal were wedge style fries and a tasty addition. The salads were romaine style, pretty typical house salad- but the dressings were a real standout. Highly recommend the feta vinegar and house dressings. The restaurant itself is very cool, large televisions, cool artwork, a nice bar area, and enough room to accommodate any size party. But I did rank it a four star because it was so cold! We had to run out and get our hoodies. All in all, I would definitely come back and try some more menu items- especially the crab soup and crab dip.

Took my mom here after several friends friends recommended. I was disappointed 😞. They receptionist typed the wrong number to text me when our table was supposed to be ready. My elderly mom requested hot water in a mug to drink (she was cold). A server delivered hot water in a glass. She could not hold it. The calamari was average. Marinara sauce was too sweet. My .om enjoyed the crab cake but felt there was additional fish in it. I didn't see it. I ordered the platter. Crab cake was delicious! Haddock was dry and inedible. Their rolls and baked potatoes were on point. It was an experience but not one worth repeating. I did see you can order and have Crab bomb/cake shipped!

I would eat here over and over. The Maryland style soup, the crabcakes, all of it was really good. My son had fish bites, they are made of fresh fish, he loves fresh fish bites so that was a win because he can be picky at times. They were very busy but the staff still treated us well and the wait time was not as long as we were told it would be. The parking lot is shared so it was tight but we found a space. We waited in the car and we were fine with that. This is one of the best seafood spots I have had the opportunity to visit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Prince George’s Stadium – A Fantastic Experience! I traveled all the way from Houston, TX to Bowie, Maryland to watch my son play baseball, and I could not have been more impressed with Prince George’s Stadium! I had the BEST week of my life. From the moment I pulled in, I noticed the FREE parking for all home games—such a wonderful perk. At the Baysox Ticket Office, the staff provided superior customer service and made the process smooth and welcoming. When my daughter and I stopped by the Chesapeake Baysox Team Store, we were greeted by Charlene, who was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. She truly went above and beyond to help us with all our merchandise questions and purchases. Her willingness to listen and assist made the experience outstanding. The ushers—Fred, Ike, and Pesh—were truly unforgettable. Every day we attended a game, they were polite, courteous, and so welcoming. They not only helped us with our seats, but also took the time to teach us so much about baseball, the stadium, the county, and even Baltimore. Their kindness, knowledge, and genuine care made our experience deeply personal and memorable. They are an incredible asset to the stadium and really elevated our visit. We also had the chance to dine at the Diamond View Restaurant, where the air conditioning and excellent service provided a comfortable and enjoyable experience. On days we arrived early, we were also given the privilege of watching batting practice before the game that was such a fun bonus! And to top it all off the fireworks show was absolutely spectacular, one of the most beautiful displays I have ever seen. Overall, Prince George’s Stadium offers not only a great ballgame, but also outstanding service, family-friendly fun, and unforgettable memories. I am so grateful for the wonderful staff—especially the ushers—who made our visit truly special. Chesapeake Baysox Baseball Fans- Jayme Faulkner and Alexis Wells.

I called the store in Bowie Exelsior Dr. to let them know the vinaigrette dressing was old because the container that the young lady put in my bag was bulging it also look used. Also, they need to change your gloves when doing burritos or quesadilla the same gloves that picked up the container holder refrigerator door pick things up.

The employees don’t have a clue with what they are doing. I had a coupon that wasn’t working and the cashier recommended I try using another coupon to see if it would work. I wasn’t aware that once you use a coupon, it cannot be taken off and at that time that wasn’t the coupon I wanted to use. They didn’t offer me any support and said “oh well it already scanned”. I would’ve preferred to pay for it full price rather than using my coupon. Please do better with explaining things to consumers.

Eat at your own risk! It’s always so dirty. We refuse to eat inside. No one knows what the items on the toppings bar are so you have to describe it in great detail and then say no 50 times before they get it right. They will short you on ALL the items and toppings unless you call them out then they act irritated. They will charge you for free items so pay attention to your total. Everyone either seems pissed or stoned there’s no in between. I don’t care if they’re stoned weeds legal here but like you still have to be able to do your job. Just avoid this location it doesn’t matter if you order in person or on the app it’s just a crapfest.

Good food, it's just that they just nickel-and-dime for extras. Why does the honey chipotle chicken cost extra? Every time I come here, it seems like the bowls get more and more expensive. The restroom was locked, so as a paying customer, I was not able to use it. Overall, this location is ok.

There is a reason why most of Bowie’s dollars are spent in Crofton and the surrounding areas. I ordered two kids meals including fruit and drinks and got two trays full of rice. At least two cups of rice each. No other sides. No fruit, no drinks. The quesadilla wasn’t even cooked. Whoever the franchisee is operating at this location ought to be ashamed! They’ll never get another dollar out of me. It’s a shame the way businesses are ran in predominantly black areas.

The pulled pork was juicy and delicious, served on a well toasted bun. The crispy and well seasoned fries were a treat. The beans were yummy but the serving so small they could have at least filled that tiny serving dish closer to the top. The brisket grilled cheese was ooey gooey tender and filling. The coleslaw wasn't particularly to our taste bur after a little doctoring up, a bit more like home...personal preference. Our server was kind, smiling and and around just enough. We were made to feel very welcome.

Neither soda machine was working but that was not disclosed to customers who were ordering drinks (even after they were told both were broken). I was given a soda bottle as replacement when I asked but other customers were not. They kept selling drinks they could not fill. My order was given to another customer as they were not verifying order numbers, just giving the food to whoever grabbed it. They did eventually remake my order but offered no apology. Employees looked really unhappy to be working there.

I was the only one who was served by a female employee after she made me wait last to get my order then they laughed about it. Nothing I did wrong, nothing I said, simply how I look. Shameful. Their rude behavior is how altercations start. This restaurant Will NEVER get another dime from me.

I’ve been coming to the Chick-fil-A for a long time, but Ethan made this experience, a great one. He was handing out samples, and I ended up buying their new seasonal drink; because of his great customer service. He was knowledgeable about all the products And was kind, friendly and welcoming!

I just stopped at the Chic Fila location in Bowie (Ball Park...), and ordered two salads. I never had a reason not to trust Chic Fila with checking my order before leaving, but wished I had this time. When I arrived home and check my salads they both were wrong. I couldn't take them back because the location is far from my home.

Day 3

Off the beaten path
For day 3, if you don’t mind the extra trek, today covers more off the beaten path places like Patuxent Research Refuge. Not quite as popular as Allen Pond Park, but still highly rated among many travelers. Accounting for getting around and average time spent, today’s activities could take about 8 hours.

Patuxent Research Refuge, spanning over 12,800 acres, is a national refuge founded by FDR where biologists study protected wildlife. It offers hiking trails, birdwatching, and wildlife photography opportunities. The visitor center provides insights into conservation efforts and educational programs. Visitors praise the well-maintained paths and informative exhibits at the center. The refuge also features animal dioramas, kids' crafts, and a polar bear exhibit for an enriching experience for all ages.
Always a good walk around the lake. Our family and friend trailed around and it enjoyed it very much. Would recommend for beginners. We did the 2.5 mile trail and with a 4 year old toddler who really enjoyed it. Great trails for the dogs as well. Pretty flat surface with some uprooted roots. Keep in mind if you take your dog and you use a poop bag there is no trash can until closer to the end of the trail. We didn’t get a chance to check out the visitor center but hope to soon.

Huge open space and trails open to the public. This reconfigured military training ground has two nice size artificial lakes, some easy trails and birds. Visitor center has nice restrooms but no food. A mile drive from the entrance to the visitor center. There is still sounds of gunfire from a shooting range adjacent to the park. Great space for “nature bathing”

Beautiful park, but could use a little attention, but seems unlikely it will get that with the Trump defending of the Federal Government. Electric vehicle charging from solar is awesome. Looks like some nice children's programs and a story book trail.

Lovely paths through the woods and around Cash lake where there are a variety of birds from ospreys to bluebirds to wood ducks. A lot of the brush is gone because of the intentional burning, so it’s much easier to see all of the chewing of trees by the beavers and all their paths from water onto the land. I really appreciate the care taken by the staff of this precious land.

We went for a walk in nature complete with mocking birds, finches and titmouse species, a brown snake in the water, dragonflies and water lilies. Probably better to go in early summer to early fall when you can see the lilies in full bloom. Bring a camera with long range lens capabilities for shots across the lake or just your eyes and an iphone.. either ways this is a nice 3 hour trip to nature and back. Trails are easy, parking is ample, good visitor center with restrooms and looping trails that are safe with some privacy.

Nice walking trails — one is stroller friendly — and a sweet visitors center. Lots of space for kiddos to run around indoors. Very welcoming and knowledgeable volunteers!! They had prepared some little arts and crafts for the 5ish and under crowd. Glad we drove over here with our little ones and escaped the heat! Also there’s a solid outdoor area to bring a picnic that’s right outside the nature center.

Bowie Golf Club

4.1
(251)
Golf course
Golf driving range
Bowie Golf Club, a charming municipal course with over 60 years of history, has been under new management since 2021. Originally opened as the Belair Golf & Country Club in 1959, this delightful venue offers a glimpse into its rich past that dates back to the 18th century when it was part of Peachtree Estates.
Bowie is a nice course . Always enjoy myself playing here . Good for beginners to moderate players due to the wife open fairways with very few water hazards. Greens are in good shape . Price is Right .what more can u ask for..
J — Google review
The fairways and greens were in great condition. The cart paths needed some work all around, but not anything that you can't deal with. Staff is also friendly. Price is comparable to other local public courses. A great value
Adeeb P — Google review
Meh... the layout is interesting but the course is in horrible condition. They're doing construction, so 1, 9 and 18 are not playing the normal layout. The tees for 1 are at the dog leg 175 yards out, 9 has a B.S. fake green mowed into the middle of the fairway and the tee box on 18 is setup in the fairway. Several tee boxes aren't even close to level so you're trying to hit driver off a 3 or 4 degree downhill lie. The cart paths are trash (but the construction isn't repairing any cart paths). The paths are so bad it hurt my back riding over them. The golf carts are 20 year old crappy, loud, gas powered carts. The one positive is that its cheap but there are much better options in the area for similar cost. I won't play here again.

BEWARE!!! This course is awful. The staff is very rude, I mean very rude and unprofessional as if they don't want you there. The tee box was open and they went to the parking lot to get 2 people to put with us one of which had to go pay. They will not let you go out regardless of what happens. I will never go to this course again. If you go you will see for yourself.

As one of the oldest shopping centers in Bowie, it caters to the vibrant and diverse lifestyles of the city's residents. The plaza offers a variety of stores and services, including a watch repair shop, book store, Safeway, and more. While some visitors find the parking congested at times, others appreciate convenient amenities like curbside pickup and delivery options.
Good restaurants 😋 and other needs

I feel like they really need to do some renovation of their stores in this plaza. There are a few stores that are a little bit run down and outdated. How about attracting some new retail stores in this plaza. Close out some of the redundant businesses like CVS. How many CVS do we need, really?
Larry E — Google review
I typically only go into this plaza to patronize the City Chef restaurant. However, I sometimes visit the liquor store, have gone to Burger King a couple of times, Ledo's Pizzeria a couple times with my kids, and the Honey Ham company a couple of times as well. I'd like to try the Jamaican restaurant at some point.

This place is big and used to have a variety of stores. They used to attic grocery store that you said before I'm asleep but they're gone Now they have a ledo's that has plumber it ever since it was put over by a local I wouldn't feed the food of my dog. They have fast food places, a bank, but not much better than you do for except for the post office next door and the dentist across the street. Otherwise this place iis a wasteland.
Gio C — Google review
Bowie plaza is too tucked away and too close to other plazas. It’s reflected clearly in the state of the Plaza itself. Only half the stores in the complex are actually open . EXTREMELY limited food options as well . Not many quality stores either . With CVS being the only store in the plaza that seems to follow any set rules or standards . Even the Pizza place can seem like chaos at times but at least it’s well kept and extremely friendly . This plaza just need some fresh new stores

Went walking and stopped in Dollar General. It was the most cluttered store I've seen in a long time. Then I brought spicy fries and they were stale so I threw them away. It's discouraging that people were standing in front of stairs asking for money. I would have went in other stores but that was a turn off.

Park
Fairwood Community Park in Bowie, MD is a great spot for families and outdoor enthusiasts. The park features playground equipment for kids, athletic fields for sports games, and walking trails. There are picnic areas, soccer fields, and pavilions available for use with a permit. The park offers a comfortable atmosphere with beautiful scenery and paved nature trails around ponds.

08/25/2024-My play-sister and I attended the summer performance music concert series from 1-7 pm, featuring musicians: Deborah Bond, The Exclusives, 8 OHMS Band, and Spur of The Moment. We bought our lawn chairs, iced bottled water, fruit, and vege snacks. Food trucks were on hand. Yum! Vendors were on hand. People were all happy and having a great time. The talent and music were awesome! Free event! Thank you parks and recreation, MNCPPC(Maryland National Capital Parks and Planning), AARP , and The Arts Cultural Heritage division in Maryland for sponsoring this annual Free music concert series throughout our many parks! Super cool!

This is a decent size park considering it's location slightly directly off the road and next to the Safeway and a Kaiser Permanente. I've been here multiple times for a variety of reasons. I've attended special events around Easter season, birthday parties, picnics, and/or to just enjoy the playground with the kids. They have two playgrounds: one for smaller children, and then one for the bigger kids. There's a lot of open space and two huge soccer fields. They have plenty of sidewalk for folks who want to get their steps in for the day, get a nice run, or even ride their bikes. Kids ride their scooters, there's general fields for folks who want to have a picnic or just relax on the grass and read a book/meditate. There seems to be a stage area for performances during special events and the grounds are nicely maintained. Finally, there's two decent size pavilions with benches/seats and tables but you'll need a permit/reservation for the soccer fields and the pavilions if you intend to use them for a large group of people. There's a bunch of trash/recycle receptacles and a good amount of greenery. One of the pavilions has bathrooms and then there's "porta-potties" in-between the soccer fields. I definitely like this park but it's even more enjoyable when the sun isn't scorching. Check it out some time if you haven't already and let me know what you think.

I love the no smoking signs & enforcement. It makes a difference especially in the heat. I have a good time at every event. The music, giveaways....are nice.

Love our local Performing Arts Center. Always here for Joe Clair and Friends on the last Sat of each month. Also love that it's near my home, secure and secluded yet feels like you are in the city. This is a great addition for the City of Bowie. Got to take some photos after the show with the comedians. Great date night venue, like I said close to home but also feels like you were out of town, and why not, yes it's next to Bowie High School but it's not Bowie High School

A Night of Whitney: A Review of the Tribute Concert Last Saturday in Bowie, MD, we were transported back to the golden age of pop music with a fantastic tribute to the legendary Whitney Houston. From the moment the lights dimmed and the first notes echoed through the venue, we were captivated. The performer, who channeled Whitney's incredible vocal power and stage presence with remarkable accuracy. She effortlessly soared through challenging numbers like "I Will Always Love You" and "I Have Nothing," eliciting chills and more than a few teary eyes from the audience. But it wasn't just about hitting the high notes. The performer also captured the emotion and vulnerability that made Whitney's music so special. During quieter songs like "Greatest Love of All" and "Saving All My Love for You," She conveyed a depth of feeling that truly resonated with the crowd. Beyond the vocals, the entire production was a celebration of Whitney's legacy. The band was top-notch, the backup singers and dancers were phenomenal, and the stage design was simple yet elegant. It all came together to create a truly immersive experience that honored the iconic singer. Whether you're a lifelong Whitney Houston fan or simply appreciate incredible vocal talent, this tribute concert is a must-see. It's a powerful reminder of the impact Whitney had on the music world and a testament to her enduring legacy.

A nice park with nature trails, sports fields and historic buildings. I most enjoy walking on the trails which take you out of sububia for a bit. I have seen some cool wildlife in there as well. Not to busy on the trails either. Trails are also function as the take you to the fields/ sports area or sportfit, the bowie play house, or you can follow it along to the hilltop plaza. Nice amenity in the city of Bowie

The thing I love most about this park is the somewhat detailed loop of paved trails that go through a forest which is absolutely gorgeous all year. Then close behind are the well-maintained sports fields of various types. It also connects to old brick buildings that are fun to observe, (but not go into,) the Bowie Playhouse which hosts local shows with local professional and unprofessional actors, and Bowie Sportfit, a nice, well kept gym. The summer is the only time it is a little bit crowded, but the rest of the time it’s quite peaceful. I strongly recommend this beautiful park for any age.

It's a park and one of the only ones in the area. Compare it to a nice park, and it's not great. Compare it to a terrible park, and it's okay. Not sure how crowded it is on weekends and after school in good weather. Under 60 degrees on weekends and after school, it's not too crowded. Small trail out back that hardly anyone uses, mostly because people in this area are averse to nature and generally being outside. Good slides for little kids, although one has a bump on the bottom that you should watch out for.

Fast food restaurant
Burger King is a popular fast-food chain renowned for its delicious grilled burgers, crispy fries, and creamy shakes. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking affordable meal options without compromising on taste. However, some locations have faced challenges with service and comfort; one diner noted issues with air conditioning that made the dining area uncomfortably warm. Despite these setbacks, staff members like Shantell have been praised for their friendliness and helpfulness during hectic times.
the five stars of service on this are for Dynasty & Dynasty ONLY. in drive through i spoke with 3 different people, 1 took my order, he was extremely rude, the second took my payment and that was Dynasty & she was so friendly and sweet and apologetic that she couldn’t add a simple sundae onto my already simple order for me, i didn’t mind though because her kind spirit made up for it. the third person at the drive through is the young lady with the pretty face, long nails & eyelashes but she had a horrible attitude. overall i’m glad this isn’t my neighborhood burger king but i would come back here again for Dynasty

This was by far one of my worst fast food experiences service wise, wait wise, and I left without my food or a refund. I ordered food at their kiosk, and I understand things taking longer than planned, however once the 20 minute mark hit I politely asked for a refund. I was told that they’re making my food now if I still want it, I said no thank you I’d just like a refund as I needed to get back to work. I was told that because I ordered from the kiosk that they can’t give me a refund, I asked for the managers card or contact information since they can’t help and I was told they didn’t have one. There were then rude jokes and comments made about me in the background and ultimately I left without receiving my food or a refund. The only time I will be returning to this establishment will be to speak to a manager when they’re available to receive my money back which is unfortunate as I generally ordered from them about 6 times a week.

Enjoy the food and drink, but don't take your free Whopper burger promo offer here to cash in. A ball of confusion 😕 and miscommunication. While the burger with cheese was good, according to my family member, they said they wouldn't go back again because of the incompetent counter service waiter in processing his order. I believe the young man was just new and didn't have experience in processing the promotional offer.

Super long drive through wait times - seriously just waited (can't escape drive through line due to concrete barriers) approx. 15 minutes for a simple, 1 meal order. If the pacific ocean runs out, the fries come with enough salt to replenish 3 times over. So much salt that I believe the state of Maryland may just order a large fry to salt every road in the state for generations to come. I know it garbage fast good, but damn.

This place was even hotter than it was outside! The air conditioner's busted, and there's a note on the door. Shantell was super nice and helpful, even though it was crazy hot. They haven't had AC for two weeks. The bathroom's freezing, but the dining area is like an oven. They should've just closed the store these past few days when it was a hundred degrees. Burger King, you gotta do better for your customers and your workers!.

This was a quick visit to grab something to eat. The last time I was at Burger King was probably in years. The food was fine and accomplished its intended need. There was nothing special, just a grab and go. I likely won't be back. It's nothing against Burger King they're just outdated, and there's too many legit options to compete with.

Rude drive thru employee! The guy taking my order stopped to talk to other staff. Came back to take my order and had to start over with a rude demeanor. He acted like I wasn't the customer waiting on him to stop talking. When I left the drive thru without placing the order, the other staff were in the store laughing. The store was empty which is probably indicative of how they treat customers.

Honestly, the food was great! The honey old bay wings w/ the goddess sauce oh wee! We ordered some to go lol, by far my favorite thing. I ordered shrimp and grits and my sis ordered the biscoff chicken and waffles. Everything was good. Our servers were kind and attentive, even the bathroom was very clean. And the peach cobbler was like a ln empanada but it was really good not too sweet. The only issue I had was when we got it we waited for 5 mins to be seated and it wasn’t busy. The host wasn’t really that welcoming, but he’s young-I think he’s still learning.

Sunday at 18:00 we were seated. The only other people in the place left about ten minutes later. Service was sporadic. This place was way over priced. $6 for two biscuits served as appetizers. $15 for the shrimp gumbo soup that had two whole shrimp, a hint of onion and rice with a broth. The Cajun Pasta with shrimp and crab had no crab $30 then the little bowl of $11 Mac and cheese…… all the food was good. Portion to price ratio was way off. >$250 total.I would recommend staying away from this place. Not worth the money. For the owner, tell your staff all Food should come out together, do not mop the floor while guest are seated in that area, mop boy should wash hands prior to carring food out, stay shouldn’t hang out in back of us chit chatting, while glasses are empty. Place was empty and service was poor.

This was my first time at THIS location, I wasn't sure what to expect and hoped that the food tasted as good as the location in College. When I say AMAZING! Everything was AMAZING. There wasn't a wait time to be seated ( on a SATURDAY) at that. Our Server Sam was AMAZING. We asked him what he would recommend, his favorite items on the menu, etc. The other workers made sure to remove any dishes that were empty. We then asked to speak to HIS manager, just to let her know how great the service was, her name is Domonique and she was great. We then thanked whomever sprinkled our food with seasoning ans a little bit of heave because everything tasted AMAZING! 20 out of 10, I would definitely recommend and we're definitely going back.

I went with my friend for dinner for her birthday. It was good but it wasn't complete meal. When it says fish and grits. I got catfish, 2 large pieces and a small amount of grits but nothing else on the plate. For $25 I expect a compete meal. Biscuits were good and the peach perseveres were delicious. The lemonade was delicious.

I had the honey glazed biscuits starter and the Caribbean jerk lamb chops with asparagus and crispy potatoes plus a side of Mac and cheese. The biscuits were delicious, super fluffy inside and the seasonal spreads of cinnamon and pumpkin icing were great toppings. However they were $6 for two biscuits which I find ridiculous. The lamb chops were perfectly tender and cooked to my order of medium. And had some delicious crispiness on the outside. The asparagus that came with was fine however a large chunk of the white stalk was left uncut. The potatoes I was actually surprised a few of them were actually crispy, I'm usually not a fan of whole potatoes but these were alright. The side of Mac and cheese was perhaps the most disappointing. The noodles were overcooked and near-mush, and the cheese had no flavor. Most boxed Mac and cheese I make tastes better. Everyone else in my group shared the opinion that all the entree's were super flavorful. Service was fine but we had empty glasses for a while and had to specifically ask for refills. They were also mopping around our table like they were getting ready to close despite it being six o'clock, two hours before their posted closing time. The smell made it like we were eating in a public swimming pool for a bit. Also they have two different styles of chairs checkerboarded at each table which I thought was a little weird but not too big of a deal.

The deviled eggs drew us in, but the grits definitely made us stay! The food is fantastic, service was quick, and our waiter Jamari was a pleasure to meet. I plan to have many more date nights here!

Founded in 1988 by Marc Ha, Sakura has built a reputation for its vibrant atmosphere and attentive service.

Delicious food exceeded my expectations. It was the first time I visited that place with my family. It was a wonderful experience that we will definitely return. The waitress was so attentive and Omar from the sushi bar was so kind, as well as chef Carlos. I will never forget their names because they made me feel at home. I really enjoyed the food and customer service.

If it wasn’t for our server being so sweet, I would’ve been pretty upset. I saved up to take my 3 kids out on a special date because they’ve been requesting this restaurant for the dinner and show. However, the chef that we got didn’t speak to us at all. He just cooked the food and left. $150 and no interaction from the chef at all which is the main event of the restaurant? Myself and my kids were a bit disappointed. Won’t be back unfortunately.

Great atmosphere. Two of us stopped in around 3p on a weekend. We were seated quickly with another couple. The environment was clean and the waitress Hazel was nice. We were really hungry so happy the onion soup and salad came out quickly. Ordered the shrimp and chicken Teriyaki with chicken livers. The other plate shown was scallops and vegetables. Total had 18% tip included. Pleased with our experience.

Not what it used to be. The service was OK. Food was OK. It used to be exciting The Chef we had didn't do all the tricks with his cooking style. Didn't smile. He didn't seem happy to be there. It was just meh 😐. I think it was fun back in the day. Now the quality and the service just isn't the same like it used to be.

UPDATE 28 October 2022 I’ve updated this review to say, the owner responded initially to me via email and stated how he would like to talk via phone vice email, which I felt was more personal and I appreciated that from him. He said he would call the next day and he did! He stood by his word. We talked, he listened and was extremely apologetic and offered ways he would like to rectify the issue. We both came to a mutual agreement and the outcome was very pleasant for us both. I will say, if you ever encounter any issues (hopefully not), Mr. Steve is willing to listen and do what he can within reason to make things right or at the very least offer his apology, which is what most customers want in the end…. to be heard and an apology! Thank you Steve, much appreciated! 10/23/22 (1star) Be mindful of the 18% gratuity they add to ALL checks of 1-9 people(per Antonio, a server, you can opt out) if you make a fuss as I did. My daughter and 3 friends patronize this location for her birthday. When I asked why is there an 18% gratuity when it’s usually a party of 6-8, I was told by Ayliah who said she was the manager that is now the policy. Then asked for someone who could further assist in this matter and she gave me the name Steve. She refused to give last names and directed me to look for it on their website. I have located Steve information (not on any of the websites) on LinkedIn and will be reaching out directly. Thank asked for a corporate number and she again stated it was on the website (NOT). And why the additional female worker standing behind the counter with Ayliah felt the need to address me when she was not the waitress nor management. She proceeded to interject in a hostile manner to which I felt was unnecessary. She was very aggressive and confrontational which is poor customer service. I will be reaching out to Steve directly to see if he is aware of how his restaurant is operating. Adding: after checking the website, no information is online for management thus, more piss poor customer service. I will be for certain to reach out Monday morning!

This Sakura location use to be one of my absolute favorites in the area. My family dines here often and we absolutely love the chefs. However, not only has the quality of food gone down (pictures attached) but the new weird rules they are implementing are ridiculous (photos also attached). 1)You now HAVE to get their vegetables the way they come, no modifications. For someone with a severe mushroom allergy, I absolutely cannot have them, and cannot simply dig around them. I understand that some people come in and ask for their veggies without this or that just because they do not like them (these people SHOULD just go around whatever vegetable they don’t like) and that causes an inconvenience for the restaurant, but completely disregarding that some people actually have food allergies is ridiculous. Those of us with food allergies must pay an upcharge, or die. 🥲 (or not come here anymore 🤨) 2) Mandatory 15% gratuity on TAKEOUT ORDERS?! LOL, What is the joke. Go to another location. Annapolis is great!

The Crab Galley in Bowie is a must-visit for seafood lovers, offering succulent crabs and excellent customer service. Guests rave about the perfection of each crab, praising their flavors and juiciness. The small fish market provides a great variety of fish, crab legs, and shrimp. Customers appreciate the friendly staff and efficient service. While the food is fresh and tasty, some feel that the prices are a bit high.
If you looking for delicious CRABS this is the place to go. All sizes you can imagine. Huge loaded with meat.

I've had crabs from this location in the past ( a few years ago), and they were really good!!! However, this time 5/31/25, not so much. I ordered the jumbo. The meat was extremely mushy in all of them and they lacked adequate seasoning. After the first crab, I was hoping it was an isolated situation. But, the entire dozen was the same. In addition, the seasoning had a pungent vinegar smell. I was very disappointed, especially considering the price of $169.00 for a dozen. I'm not certain if I'll return.

The store is dirty. I asked for a fish sandwich one day and it came back. The fish sandwich was greasy like they didn’t change the grease. if you look in the refrigerators of the display, it’s dirty if you complain about your service instead of them, fixing it, they make excuses and they can sometimes be condescending in a rude.Go to Seaside Glen Burnie. we previously ordered three dozen of mail large when we got the order. It was three dozen of medium females. We called to let them know they gave us the wrong order. They were rude.

I've gotten crabs and crab legs from this location quite a few times over the past 3 years or so. They're usually good, but my beef is with the cream of crab soup. It literally tasted like someone took canned Campbell's potato soup and cream of celery soup and put backfin crab meat in it. I don't recall it tasting like this previously. I had so many potatoes in it I questioned if it was actually clam chowder lol but I was assured that was how it was made. Well, if it is then yall need to just take it off the menu at this point. However, let me tell you about those oatmeal cookies they sell in there...they are delicious!! Whoever makes those, they are 5 star! I will be back for more cookies lol. If you go in there and there isn't any that day, I probably bought them all.

Kidzden is a fantastic indoor play space that caters to children aged 18 months to around 5 years, making it an ideal spot for little ones to explore and have fun. Recently opened, the facility boasts a clean and well-maintained environment with friendly staff who are eager to help. For just $15 per child, families can enjoy unlimited playtime without any entry fee for adults—an excellent value!
There is a heat 🌊 wave so we needed an indoor play place for my grandson. This place is perfect. There are varying levels of play. He likes the ball pit. He jumped on the trampoline. Great place to play indoors.

We had our daughters first birthday here over the weekend and I was highly disappointed. This establishment is not as advertised. The staff member at the front desk was rude and barely assisted with our party. She became visibility upset and stopped communicating with me and my guest when I expressed my concerns about the facility. The entry area is completely out of order and the shoe racks are mostly broken into pieces. The bathrooms are filthy, no soap or toilet tissue. The party room was dirty and smelly. It also had pin tacks all around the room which is an obvious safety hazard for kids. The play area is also visible dirty and you can tell it is not cleaned regularly. A lot of the equipment is patched up with tape. I’m sure this place is violating several health and safety standards.
Regine B — Google review
I love that it’s affordable, but you are definitely paying the right price for the place. I was hoping to like this place, but unfortunately, it was very unkept. The establishment really needs to work on the cleanliness (wiping down every hour, the smell, the look of the equipment - some equipment was held together by duct tape, etc). It is a kids play space, which breeds germs and I didn’t feel comfortable letting my little stay too long due to it. Hoping that can change so that we can go back.

I would NEVER go here again. Plain a simple. Very unorganized, late, and rude. First off when we got there, we had to wait in a small room and we were told we couldn’t bring anything in after we had already brought everything in because it was time for us to decorate our room. Some girl threw up, and all they did was wipe it up with paper towels, and didn’t disinfect. Toys are swings are broken, Swings are broken, Not safe for children at all. Very unhygienic. I wish I could give zero stars. I am so pissed I can’t even put it into words. No one was there to assist, We weren’t told the time that our party started in a room. We were rushed to eat, and only one person was able to get a slice of cake before we were kicked out. The head lady came in the middle of the kids eating cake and started vacuuming, hitting my family’s feet. I feel like it would be a good place to have parties if there were different people, more respectful people, the toys were fixed and time in between parties, to clean up and prepare for the next. They were overbooked, so wow one family was having a birthday party They would come in, and interrupt to kick them out and immediately bring in the next people no. No time in between. Not to mention, inexpensive pair of Jordans were stolen in a mist. No corporate number to call. Basically you don’t get your money worth. Attached photos is a slice of cake I was able to give out And her vacuuming in the middle of our purchased time.

Celebrated my daughter’s first birthday party here today. The decor set up was amazing. But unfortunately there was no “host” to assist with the party as stated in the package description. Juice boxes were not sat out I found them under the table, the pizza was cold by time it was time to eat. The front door didn’t work half the time so everyone had to use the side door in the party room which was right by the cake table. Let’s not forget it was hot as hell in the entire facility. 10/10 would not recommend for a party.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! The staff member was so accommodating! We had one of the last parties of the day mainly! The party started at 6pm. Didn’t have to bring any decorations really, they decorated and it looked so beautiful! For the price, it was definitely worth it! We were given an amazing experience, my daughter and family enjoyed theirselves both little kids and adults! Everything went smoothly, everyone came in and were given wristbands for the party. Our pizza’s arrived at a decent time and we overall were able to enjoy our time in the room!! Definitely recommend this establishment and would go back again for another birthday party!

First time there. Place was bigger than I had imagined. It was clean and equipment seemed properly maintained and nothing was torn nor broken. There is no baby area. I'd say best for 18 months up to age 5. Not a place for school ages. Staff was friendly. Entrance was clean. Plenty of seating for adults to sit while kids play. We will return.

Once a 5 star review. Unfortunately time, unprofessional staff, no maintenance, no cleanliness, and saftey issues nearly a year later make this a spot I no longer go. Did they just give up on this place? They obviously never wash surfaces. Food and trash can be found everywhere. Storage is underneath the slides, but they leave bags where children can access them in play areas. I had to move 3 jumbo bags of linen to keep them from the kids. Big saftey issues, the slides aren't bolted in correctly. With the gap between the slide and floor, my son got his foot caught. I had to run up and get this foot loose while calming him down. Dirty, dirty, dirty. Vacuum was just laying on the floor with the cord all over the place. Trash cans full. Considering we were the only customers during our two hour visit this was in acceptable. Broken equipment everywhere. The solo staff was arguring with a family member on her cell phone which was awkward. She kept saying she was busy at work but her butt never left her chair or phone. There was ample cleanup she could have been doing instead.

Sears is a well-known department store chain offering a wide range of brand-name and signature products including appliances, tools, home goods, and apparel. It is located in a town center alongside other major retailers. The store provides a pleasant shopping experience and offers apps for additional discounts and rewards. While some customers have noted issues with pricing and promotions not being clearly marked, the availability of price scanners helps mitigate this concern.
Very pleasant experience! Don't forget to download Sears app and Shopyourway rewards app, you will get coupons and points via their apps. Sometimes their price tags are not current, promotions are not marked, however they do have quite a few price scanners available.

At this point I will have to file a complaint with corporate or the state's attorney office. All I want to do is return a washer dryer unit I'm not satisfied with and the Bowie store is giving me the Business. Had a service rep come check the machine out ,they were very prompt. Check the machine and informed us the machine was fine. My wife said the machine does not meet her satisfaction she would like to return it. Service rep gave her a 1 800 number to call. The 1800 number rep told her call the store. Store gave her the Business. I went to store store rep gave me a number for delivery. Delivery referred me back to store. Store called my wife told her it's is past the 30 day return period they can't help.her she is stuck with the machine or replacement. We don't want a replacement . Your lack of proper response is what caused the return lapse. We will pay restock fee or any depreciation fee .just return a call . The only appliance in my home not from Sears is a Dishwasher.

I am very disappointed in the Sears Home Warranty that I purchased in March 2018. I have been waiting for my air conditioner to be repaired for 3 weeks with no end in site as to when the needed part that I was told was ordered will be received. The customer service has been very poor. Each time I call, I have to answer the same questions and was placed on hold yesterday for 45 minutes. They seem to not be able to track the ordered part and continue to tell me they will get back to me in a day or two. I can't express how frustrating this experience has been.

I got the mattress I wanted but the salesman was flustered. He was seemingly having a really bad day. He rang my things up wrong, then acted like it was my fault. I told him when I wanted delivery and because he couldn't get it right, simply said, we'll just call them and change it. There were not enough registers for the staff which made him more frustrated. I brought the bed, but it was close. Also, SEARS advertises lay away but bewarr, it's not for bedding. :-(

I couldn’t find an item I was looking for. I asked a near-by staff member named Dewey for help. He told me if there’s nobody in that department then it’s self service and nobody in the store coukd help me. I asked him if he had a second to help me and point me in the right direction even though that may not be his department and he told me “no, like I just said it’s self service”. Wow, if a staff member who isn’t doing anything can’t help a customer then I can assure you I will never be back. Thanks, Dewey, for absolutely nothing. See ya never, Sears.

I scheduled air vent cleaning service with Sears and was given a 8am - 12pm window . At 12:10 I called sears to be told that they were on their way. At 12:30 a Sears representative arrived stating that he came to preinspect my furnace and to sell me the service for add l $400+. He did not perform any inspection when I informed him that I was no interested in any add'l services. He left and told me that the vent cleaners were on their way and should arrive soon. An hour later i called Sears again to inquire about my appt. And was told that the came and no one was home. I informed tbem that no one had been here, i was transfered to the dispatcher who told me that tbe inspector had informed them that my furnace was too dirty to clean the vents. When i informed her that the representative did not inspect my furnace, which is relatively new, she stated tbat the do not clean vents without cleaning the furnace. If this us their practice why isn't it disclosed in their advertisement?

It seems as though this Sears is going out of business. The “electronics section” was nothing more than 2 TVs, a stereo system and tons of HDMI cords. Our cashier was not able to figure out how to let us use our Visa Gift Cards and was extremely slow. This will probably be my last time ever going

A wonderful park, a huge community of pickle ball players come together here to play on the tennis courts! Great sports fields, so many different groups gather at this park! The covered awning is awesome. The bathroom house makes this park work for every one. The bathroom, covered pavilion, playgrounds for both age groups and basket ball hoops are all accessible by a wide, flat concrete walkway. While parts of the park like the fields and stone bridge through the woods, wouldn't be wheelchair accessible, those are. Right on a wide path that goes from the middle school through parts of Bowie you'd pass the park as well as the pond down the hill.

Located conveniently near Prince Georges Stadium, it's the perfect spot to catch a game while enjoying award-winning brews—over 200 accolades to its name! During my visit, I was blown away by the delicious pizza; it was cheesy, hot, and bursting with flavor—definitely one of the best I've had in ages.
The pizza was really good. Fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right! What really stood out, though, was the Pizookie selection. There’s a huge variety, and everything looked amazing. Definitely recommend saving room for something sweet at the end. Can’t wait to come back and try more!

Visited this location for lunch despite the low review rating. They have daily specials, and today’s was a large deep dish pizza for half price. It was pretty good even though I didn’t get the extra cheese I requested on it. We also got the cheeseburger. I can’t remember the exact name of it but it had avocado on it. It looks messy in the photo but It was very tasty. If you sign up for rewards you will receive a free pizookie. The salted caramel one is yummy 😋. Meagan was our waitress. She was very pleasant, attentive and offered suggestions.

The food was phenomenal or at lest the smash cheeseburger I order, it was juicy, flavorful, real good. We also got the sample platter with spinach dip and it was to die for. We came around 3:30pm and the service was quick. Shoutout to Carla, she was our server and did an amazing job.

The food was edible but not the best steak. The caesar salad was okay but you can’t really go wrong with a salad. The service could Definitely be better for sure. Very nice atmosphere though.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My wife and I stopped in at BJ’s and wow… what a great choice! I went with the pizza and it was absolutely delicious – cheesy, hot, and loaded with flavor. Honestly, one of the best I’ve had in a while. My wife ordered the chicken salad and she couldn’t stop talking about how fresh and tasty it was. We ended up sharing bites back and forth because neither of us wanted to miss out on what the other had. The vibe in the restaurant was relaxed and fun, and our server was super friendly and on point the whole time. It’s one of those places where you feel comfortable just hanging out, enjoying your meal, and not feeling rushed. We left full, happy, and already talking about what we’re going to try next time. If you’re looking for great food, good portions, and an easy-going atmosphere, BJ’s is definitely worth the stop. We’ll be back for sure!

Breakfast restaurant
First Watch is a delightful café chain that caters to health-conscious diners seeking delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch options. Known for its consistency in both food quality and service, it has quickly become a favorite spot for many. Guests rave about the Trifecta—a scrumptious combination of soft scrambled eggs, Belgian waffles, and perfectly cooked bacon—always served just right. The menu also features enticing items like the maple bacon croissant sandwich with jalapeños and sausage.
We were served by a gentlemen that was very polite and friendly. Food came very quickly & flavours were there. I really liked the avocado on toast (a little advice: if you add some olive oil, chilli flakes and some black pepper it will give it a nice little nice addition, avocados tend to be quite plain) overall quite a nice place, a lot of food options. Great breakfast selections. Thank you

Food was good. Potatoes were inconsistent (some undercooked) and a bit too salty. Eggs cooked nice and sausage biscuit was good. Little bit of wait to get a table and no clear line. Server was friendly but didn't offer cooked nicest

It's a long wait to be seated, but the delicious food and great service make it worth it. My friend and I have visited several times, and we're sure to go again. This time we tried the Frittata Rustica and the Morning Market Veg. Yummy all around.

Even though I reserved a space on line prior to my arrival I still had to wait. They also said I was next but seated two people before me. I was not happy because I had my six year old and my own glucose level was low. The breakfast was mediocre at best. They did not put their “foot in it.” The coffee and specialty drink was really good, however. I won’t be rushing back here anytime soon.

This has quickly become our go-to breakfast spot because they’re consistent with both food and service. I usually get the Trifecta (scrambled soft eggs, Belgian waffle, and bacon cooked well-done but not burnt) and it always comes out just the way I like it. My hubby tried the maple bacon croissant sandwich with jalapeños, scrambled eggs, cheese, million-dollar bacon, sausage, and a side of potatoes. It came out a little burnt, but Sharday (GM) and our server David went above and beyond to make it right. That kind of customer service is why we keep coming back. The coffee? Smooth, balanced, and worth savoring. Even with a 30-minute wait, the text-when-ready system made it effortless—we browsed nearby shops and our table was ready before we knew it. No restaurant is perfect, but First Watch Bowie consistently shows they care about both the food and the experience, which is why they’re worth 5 stars in my book.

From the moment we sat down, Taylor’s energy and professionalism set the tone for a wonderful dining experience. She was attentive without being intrusive, knew the menu inside and out, and offered thoughtful recommendations that made our meal even more enjoyable. What stood out most was her genuine kindness and ability to make us feel welcomed and valued — something that’s rare to find. Every request was handled with a smile, and she checked in just enough to ensure everything was perfect without ever interrupting our conversation. Taylor embodies what true hospitality looks like. First Watch is lucky to have her, and we’ll definitely be returning because of the amazing experience she created!
Sonja M — Google review
M experience today was subpar. Our server Amaya should attend a customer service class. I asked that the potatoes be well cooked(brown). They came out pale and undercooked. The server took them back along with the rest of my food. The manager brought them back out and the potatoes were still undercooked and pale and extremely greasy. I asked if they cook new ones but again well done (brown). At that point I would’ve accepted them burnt. The next batch came out well done and I was pleased. The only issue is the potatoes were hot and my food was cold, because no one thought to bring all new gravy and biscuits. I guess the fact that I wasn’t eating them and the manager noticed and asked if everything was okay. I said the gravy is cold. He did bring out hot gravy on the side. Overall, this is not a location that o would come back to. I’d much rather go back to the Tech road location in Silver Spring where the service is held to a much higher standard and never disappoints.

Here for my daughter's bday, and they surprised her w/hotcakes. "I had an incredible dining experience at today at the First Watch in Bowie. The service from our waiter, David, was exceptional—he is very knowledgeable about the menu and offered perfect recommendations. The "Pumpkin Spice Doughnuts" are awesome. The ambiance is wonderful for a special occasion. A down home feeling. We will definitely be back!".

Italian restaurant
Carrabba's Italian Grill is a popular chain restaurant and bar known for its wide selection of classic Italian dishes in a welcoming, family-friendly environment. The menu offers diverse options, including favorites like lentil soup, linguine pescatore, and delightful crabcakes. Customers can enjoy the convenience of ordering ahead for car-side pickup or opt for takeout with food brought directly to them.
The cannoli cake was absolutely so delicious! I was craving chocolate, but nothing too overwhelming and this hit the spot! Cake was moist and my favorite part was the chocolate chips coated on the back of the back. The pistachio cannoli was also very good. We also ordered mozzarella marinara for appetizers for delivery and they were so good as always, one of my favorite mozzarella marinaras I’ve had and believe me, I’ve tried a bunch lol. Highly recommend!

Haven't been here in years. Yuk. All of the food was Horrible. First burnt crab cakes, broccoli with all this debris, potatoes taste watered down, lamb chops were chopped....Shrimp scampi came out in a milky like sauce. Caesar dressing tasted like mayo with seasoning Nothing was good except Morgan the waitress. Morgan needs to work at a better restaurant who care about the quality of their food as much as she cared about her customer service. The manager came to the table and she thought my comments were worthy of an apology with a smile but this is a hot mess.. And my husband Birthday dinner is ruined. And I'm beyond disgusted.

Absolutely loved my experience at Carrabba’s! The food was delicious, very fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I tried the Fettuccine Weedie and I must say the shrimp was cooked to perfection! My server Anaiya was just as impressive. Absolutely friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely welcomed. She checked in often without being overbearing, had great menu suggestions, and handled everything with a warm smile and professionalism. It's rare to come across someone who clearly enjoys what they do, and Anaiya made our evening extra special. Thank you for the great service. I want to express my sincere gratitude to the manager, Miss Tracy. She did an exceptional job ensuring that the everything was exactly to my liking and that I was treated with utmost respect. The warm and welcoming atmosphere made it an ideal spot for a casual dinner or a special night out. I’m definitely coming back soon!

I attended a wine dinner this past Wednesday. I enjoyed the hostess who spoke to autism awareness. I enjoyed three of the four courses served. Until the fourth course. I didn’t receive the fourth course until I asked. I asked for it to go and the female waitress brought it to dine in. I shared with her when she finally walked by again that I would like it to go and when she returned she dropped a to go container and continued to walk away even after I tried to get her attention. She did this twice during my evening of dining. I had to stand up for someone to address me paying my check after I asked two separate waitress for the check. After a long wait of standing a male waitress came to me. I had received my check and was attempting to pay. That took forever. A manager asked if he could assist me after he observed me standing. I shared with him my experience to which he apologized. For me with this being my first dining experience at Carrabba’s, I was pleased until I wasn’t. I was disappointed I expect excellent customer service. The service was poor with the exception of the on duty manager who tried to appease me. But I must say I was disappointed for this being my first time.

Extremely disappointing!! The burrata looked like it had been sitting out and seemed to have been opened and split among several orders. Even worse, my Caesar salad arrived with mold on the lettuce, which is absolutely unacceptable for any restaurant. I submitted a survey and a manager initially responded, but after I provided the pictures, I was ghosted. That lack of accountability is just as concerning as the food quality. Between the unsafe food and the poor follow-up from management, I cannot recommend this location and will not be ordering again.

The location was pretty chill the day we went. It was a Saturday, pouring raining which is probably why. The staff were very attentive and polite. They helped us out by singing to the birthday guy and let us know we were their first large party that they hosted under their new standards. They did well on the customer service tips. Drinks were good, especially the second picture. It was similar to the dragonfruit Hennessy or something.

I went here this evening and look at what this restaurant had the audacity to serve a customer! As you can see my potato skins were NOT fresh nor even hot temperature wise. The cheese was slapped on it and was too thick and not melted. Worse swimming in grease. I couldn’t use the sour cream because as you also see it was NOT fresh! There were lumps in it and it was mostly watery. I purchased my food to-go. When I called and asked to speak with a manager a male who identified his name quickly (started with a S) ..and as if too busy and agitated to talk when I explained what had happened he rudely brushed me off and said yea yea ok sorry next time you come I have your name you can get a free meal. He asked me to return so he could re-cook it but I was unavailable and too far gone. The moral to this incident is not about free food it’s about oversight and proper management from the beginning! I will never patronize this location again and if you look at the pictures you should see for yourself their not worth going! Very unprofessional and sloppy and possibly risking getting someone sick.

Ordered to go & won't order those food items again as a to go order (Sizzling Chicken & Shrimp & Fried Chicken Sandwich w/ Fries). The food I received looked no where near close to pictures of menu items posted on-line. Nothing "sizzled", the cheese wasn't melted as there were 2 slices of cheese placed underneath the chicken. I had to discard the avocado, lettuce & tomato on my sandwich once I got home. I wish I wasn't so tired, hungry & in a rush to get home because I would've cancelled this order or asked for it to be redone. It's probably best to dine in. However, I won't order to go again & probably will not dine in anytime soon.

I was feeling the vibe until the usual happened.... The waitress was nice but very inattentive as I had to wait for her to come back to the bar to notify her I had no utensils and then we had to wait for her to come back to tell her my friends food was not made properly so despite her being nice It was a little frustrating having to wait for her to leave her friends (other waiters in a booth) to get what we needed. The spinach dip is apparently pre-made so it DIDN'T look anything like the photo on the menu and they may want to go back to the old bowl because when people get food and it looks like they're getting less people will complain! It seemed like the bowl was bigger than the serving... All in all the food was good and their worker-made playlist was low and tolerable. Because I didn't experience the rudeness the others have wrote about I wouldn't mind going back with hope of better service. while I understand chilling before you sit down you should verify your tables are happy and the food tastes properly before you go and chat or be on your phone

I visited TGI Fridays and was not really sure if it was what I expected. The server was very nice. The location had lots of parking. The bathroom had a very strong smell like a sewer. The place was not crowded at the time we went. I ordered ribs and chicken and fries. The food took quite a while to come. When my food came my fries and wings were close to cold. So I waited for our server to come back and she did take the wings and fries back. The fries were warm up and they gave me new fries. The wings were tough after they were warmed but I didn't want to complain so I just didn't eat them. The ribs were ok. I paid the check and left. I don't plan to go back soon, but if you are into sports bars give them a try, you might have a better experience.

Bowie Ice Arena, a beloved seasonal skating facility, has been a fixture in the city of Bowie since 1971. It offers open skating sessions, lessons, and camps for both children and adults. The arena is home to various local figure skating and ice hockey organizations. Visitors can enjoy public skate sessions throughout the week with rental skates available in various sizes. Additionally, the facility features a snack bar, pro shop, and hosts hockey games and figure skating competitions.
Great, clean facility and friendly staff. I’ve enjoyed the lessons and coming back for public skate. Definitely recommended for little ones learning to skate as well. They make it fun and offer camps during the summer. Walkers available if you are just starting out. I’ve also found their pricing to be extremely reasonable- especially compared to neighboring ice arenas. A great place for the entire family to enjoy themselves.

Water stations are conveniently available to keep dogs hydrated during playtime. The park's location within Northview Enfield Chase Park makes it easily accessible, with mulch ground cover making cleanup hassle-free.

The mulch concept is disgusting. During humid periods, there is not ONE minute your pet will be clean after entering the park. No running water, but a small cooler that runs out of water by late morning. Dangerously placed dog obstacles that pertty much become collision hazards when dogs are running. The park is not regularly monitored or maintained, so if dogs happen to dig, good luck with your ankles. The only reason people still frequent this park is because of proximity. Not to mention, having a school right next door means that, at certain times during the school year, good luck finding parking in the lot.

The large dog part area is huge, plenty of room for running, a few shaded areas and benches for the humans. Water cooler available for use, recommend you bring your own dish, as some of the ones provided are very dirty. Overall, a nice dog park, 3 stars because of the small area for small dogs.

This is a neighborhood park and so it's understandable that there are limited facilities there. Two tennis courts, one small size shed, basketball and one soccer field. There's a public restroom. No lights in the park at night. It's just okay for any small gathering/event. It's not as great as some other Parks I visited in the past. This is okay because it's a 'neighborhood park'.

Located in Whitemarsh Park, the Bowie Playhouse is a charming 150-seat theater that serves as the home for two esteemed theater companies. Established in the 1970s as The Theater in the Woods, it hosts a variety of productions throughout the year, ranging from compelling dramas to delightful comedies. With its recent renovation, this intimate venue offers an inviting atmosphere for patrons to enjoy live performances while supporting local talent.
My son was in sister act which is why I was there. I have never been there prior and didn’t know it existed. However, I will say it’s a nice place. It’s a small building in the woods(sounds weird but once you visit you’ll see what I mean). It was very clean and the ppl associated with them were very friendly and helpful. They offered snack(free). They only ask for a donation of your choice which goes 2nd star production. I would definitely return.

Governor Bridge Natural Area

Nature preserve
Governor Bridge Natural Area, located in Bowie, offers a tranquil retreat surrounded by nature's splendor. The area is famous for its picturesque trails that meander through verdant forests and along the serene Patuxent River, providing an ideal setting for leisurely strolls and birdwatching. Anglers can also find peaceful fishing spots scattered throughout the area. With miles of hiking trails suitable for all skill levels, visitors can immerse themselves in the beauty of the woodlands and enjoy breathtaking views.
Really like this park. Various ponds and river access with a canoe launch. A good amount of trails to explore too. You could easily walk a couple of miles here. A good amount of wildlife here as well. Good for bird watching, have seen osprey, heron, bald eagles. Some deer roaming around including a piebald (pictured but not great) turtles and fish in the ponds. Quite a few water lillies in there especially in summer. Very nice natural area

A good place for a nice walk, has never been crowded when we were there. The paths are clear and easy to follow. The beavers dammed up a new pond over our favorite route, but we've found a few new ones. Hoping to try fishing with the kids this summer. I miss the Port-a-potty that was removed after Covid hit, it really limits the length of a visit with smaller children.

Nice place for a walk around the lake. Caught and released a good-sized largemouth bass there. Went today and, now, fishing isn't allowed from the shore. ☹️
Guy M — Google review
Pros: The parking is adequate, trails are mowed or decently kept up with, beautiful scenery with views of small ponds, streams, and the river. Plenty of wildlife around and overall a great place to bring the family. Cons: Around the parking area there is a bit of trash, and the one portable bathroom could be kept up with more. The trail signs could be updated to show a little more information. Overall I give this location a solid four stars. I went on a brisk walk in the area and loved it. With some minor improvements this area could be much better.

The kayak launch ramp ended in a muddy mess a several feet from the water. There was a fair amount of wildlife including a beaver, bald eagle, sand piper and kingfishers. Was only able to go about a mile south before being blocked be pile of downed trees. And that was with going over and through some downed trees. Going up the river, but stopped at the the Route 50 bridge. There was a place that was almost blocked about 1/2 mile up but was able to make it by to left. Don't know how much farther past Route 50 bridge we could have gone, but that was about .7 of a mile.
Dave G — Google review
The park has nice ponds but the walking trails needs to be cleaned up a lot there's also no street lights so I would recommend going during the day opposed to the evening. On the second gate going for there's no concise Trail. The first date to your left leads to the back of a swamp and when you passed there it's the back of the pond where you can kayak or canoe.

Peaceful, beautiful, and not too populated! Came on a grey Sunday afternoon with my family and our dog and was one of maybe 3 groups there. Particularly pleased with how clean it was and how well-maintained the pathways were.
Kat B — Google review
Decent local spot to go wildlife viewing and/or bird watching; I've gotten a handful of bird pictures there. Always see people fishing there too. There are a few picnic tables around the main lake to eat at. Bring bug spray in the warmer seasons because the bugs are real bad. Without fail regardless of day or time, there is always some sketchy car parked there with someone just sitting/sleeping in it. Creeps me out whenever I go as I am typically alone.

Chinese restaurant
Nestled in the heart of the community, East Delight is a charming eatery that feels like an extension of your own kitchen. This cozy spot serves up a delightful selection of Chinese favorites straight from the counter, making it a go-to for those craving flavorful and efficient meals. The warm welcome from Anna, one of the owners, adds to its inviting atmosphere as she greets patrons with genuine smiles and a no-frills approach—no plastic utensils or bags here!
Absolutely love this place! The staff is super friendly and even remembers me by name, which makes it feel like home. The crispy beef is perfectly done—crispy, flavorful, and addictive. The steamed chicken with mixed vegetables is fresh and light, and the veggie soup is comforting and delicious. Great service, great food—definitely a go-to spot!

Crispy beef was excellent!!! Great service. Tables inside were clean. Nice selection of soda.
Tyler C — Google review
The food was OK, except you can't serve someone those big chunks of zucchini like that. It's not pleasant. You have to cut them bite size. Zucchini is not the type of vegetables you want big chunks of. Also more variety of vegetables. What happened to snow peas, carrots etc.

This is the best carry out I have ever had. Amanda is such a sweetheart! My coworkers and I order from here so much that Amanda knows our voice and our go to orders without us saying! Customer service is top tier! Food is always 10/10 and the prices are definitely affordable. Highly recommend

The food here is amazing! The steak and cheese egg rolls are very delicious, might be the best I’ve ever tasted! The cashier, Ana, is very friendly and welcoming! I come here every week for my usual order, general tso chicken with SC egg roll! Definitely recommended 🙏
Lydia C — Google review
East Delight is another local institution that feels like an extension of your own kitchen; if you could recreate Americanized Asian food with as much flavor and efficiency. Anna, a member of the proprietorship, always greets us with a genuine smile. She respects my anti-trash quirk and delivers my food without a bag, plastic utensils, condiments or judgment. It’s good, consistent, quick genre food at a price that’s not kept with, but not exceeded inflationary pressures. Can’t ask for much more than that.
Justin C — Google review
Absolute worst chinese food I have ever had in my life. I've never had fried rice that has bean sprouts all through it. The fried rice was burnt. The eggFu young was missing the gravy on the side. Absolute worst food I have ever had.I wouldn't even feed it to the dog.
Jennifer S — Google review
Ok, I read the reviews, overwhelmingly against my desire to give this place a chance. I decided to order 2 shrimp spring rolls and shrimp Egg Foo Yong. I ate the spring roll on my way home which was great, giving hope for the Egg Foo Young entree. It I was awful! I it tasted like a soft fluffy soufflé, not Egg Foo Yong. I so wanted to love my dinner. Fifteen dollars gone down the drain.

Chicken wings restaurant
If you're on the hunt for a casual dining experience that specializes in chicken wings, look no further than Wingstop. This popular counter-serve chain offers an array of delicious wing flavors paired with tasty sides, making it a go-to spot for many families. During my recent visit to Wingstop in Bowie, I was pleasantly surprised by the attentive service provided by Osmon, who went above and beyond to ensure I had all the information I needed about their menu options.
Very clean friendly environment. The staff is super friendly at 3:40pm 3/24. Wings were dropped fresh. Highly recommend.
Adriana F — Google review
I hate leaving bad reviews!!!! However, the cashier at this Wingstop was so rude and lacked customer service. You can see her name on my receipt. I urge management/corporate to give her a fast course on how to greet and communicate with customers. Other than that store was clean and the wings were good!
Carol S — Google review
Update: the general manager Dawn is amazing. Not only did she provide great customer service, she remade my order personally and it was probably the BEST wings and fries I’ve had, ever. Tasted the way I remember and loved at wing stop. Unfortunately when she isn’t there, service won’t be there either. This location is terrible. Orders are NEVER ready when they say they will be. They lie and say “5 more minutes” knowing you’ll be standing there for at least another 20. DO NOT EAT AT THIS WINGSTOP. Service is terrible & they certainly can careless about the quality of the food.
Nautica G — Google review
Walked into Wingstop and Bowie today. Osmon is very helpful as a young man today. I appreciate that. Very respectful service was amazing. Even offering me other options off of the menu as I was a bit confused which is rare now when you walk into fast food chains. I appreciate the service and I have been to Wingstop a lot
Kareem D — Google review
I ordered 40 wings through uber eats. When the driver came in it only arrived with 10 wings. I had to drive there to get the remaining 30. The staff explained that they had 50 orders and they were backed up. While I understand that the staff is not at fault for the back orders. Management should definitely look into that issue. Because if they have so many orders they should give a heads up online or create a better way to handle the amount of orders. I won’t complain about the staff because they do what they can but i will never buy from wingstop again.

My daughter loves this place. Wings and fries are good. Service is very SLOW. They are often understaffed and folks working are not at all efficient. I wouldn't get food here that often but my daughter loves the food so I frequent them a couple times a month.

Service was horrible! Tall guy with a man bun and tattoos was rude and rushing us to order. I'll never go back again. If he treats customers like that, then I'm sorry for the people working with him. My receipt said his name is Kristopher. Hope management fixes his customer service skills.

Timothy Dean is a laid-back and welcoming restaurant with a low-key atmosphere, friendly staff, and tasty food. The blue walls create an open and airy feel, making guests feel right at home from the moment they walk in. Despite the limited menu options, visitors were able to find something they liked easily. The owner, Top Chef Timothy Dean, was hands-on and socialized with the crowd, adding to the welcoming atmosphere.
Was in between appointments and stopped in for a quick bite. Though clearly 'underdressed' everyone was friendly. Loved the cocktail (wish I wasn't driving or I would of had 2). Thought I would try a few things and was happy I did. The catfish and grits was delicious as were the wings. The owner/Top Chef Timothy Dean was hands on helping and socializing with the crowd. Got a nice smile as he walked by. Glad Bowie has a restaurant of this stature.

The staff is friendly, the food is tasty the atmosphere is low key and laid back, and the music is perfect. The blue walls make for a calming, open and airy feel. You feel welcomed and right at home from the moment you walk in the restaurant. Our waiter was friendly and personable. Her honesty was truly appreciated, when asked about which different menus items we should try. Although the menu is very limited in options and variety we were all able to find something to our liking with ease. The background music is a perfect blend between old school and new school music. Throughout conversations you will find yourself singing along with the next greatest hit. The Chicken and Waffles are a huge hit and it seemed as if every table had a serving. You will get 8 pieces of chicken and a waffle so unless you are starving it is definitely a shareable dish. The brunch berry sangria was perfect for a nice Spring day, very refreshing with all of the fruity flavors. I look forward to returning soon to try the dinner menu or to check out one of the upcoming events. #fallynsfoodieexcursions #timothydean #sundaybrunch

Melissa found this place and it was fantastic! I got the aged ribeye and she got the steak frites. Both cooked perfectly! Mine came with thinly sliced potatoes kind of like scalloped potatoes and hers, of course, came with fries. I liked the potatoes on both! Definitely recommend and we will come back. And the service was great too! Just the right amount of checking in and really fast.

I've come to this restaurant at least 3 times over the quarantine. Once a week I've treated myself to Michelin-starred takeout or visited other small, high-end restaurants to get the perfect meal at home. Even though I frequently travel to DC and Annapolis, I'm fortunate enough to live pretty close to Timothy Dean, whose food does not usually disappoint, but today I was just really appalled by the food quality and the attitude of Timothy Dean himself. I attempted to order lobster mac about a month ago, but the person on the phone politely informed me that they were out of lobster. I ordered a steak instead. Tonight I ordered a different meal and decided to see if the lobster was back, so I pointedly asked "Is there lobster today for the mac and cheese" and the person on the phone responded "yes." It was under $20 so I figured the takeout portion was smaller than normal (other restaurants have done the same), but when I got home I was appalled to see this fake "krab" looking stuff in my food. Not a bit of lobster anywhere. I thought surely this was a mistake, but when I called the restaurant to complain, they put Timothy on the phone. He was shockingly unapologetic for the fake lobster, and repeatedly told me that real lobster is more expensive (as if I didn't know that), they've been out of lobster for months, and when I asked him to update meal description, he told me "the price should tell you that it's not real lobster." No refund offered (I didn't ask for one), and no apology whatsoever. In the last few weeks, I've dealt with only one other business that sent me home with food that was subpar, even for their standards, and they immediately offered a credit for my next order at their restaurant. Why is it so hard to find great service in PG County?

This review is based on my order to go experience. I ordered the Obama burger. The location is clean and nicely decorated. I was greeted immediately. They were warm and friendly. My order was quick and delicious. Love the watercress! Nice touch. I do wish the fries where double fried like in France, but they were good also. Would definitely go back. The menu has a lot to offer and can’t wait to try more.
Linda M — Google review
This restaurant is a hidden gem. A friend recommended it after I complained about not being able to find good food with good service in the county. The food was EXCELLENT! Mr. Dean himself is in the kitchen. I had the lobster hash hesitantly because I'm not really a lobster fan and it was awesome. My husband had the french toast and didn't even leave me a taste :). The best part was the service. Our waiter was top quality and we were a table of 9. I made a reservation for the entire family for Easter and am truly looking forward to it.

I must say I love this place! My husband took me here as a surprise for date night and I loved everything about it. The hostess was courteous and greeted us immediately, our bartender was a sweetheart, my catfish sandwich was the bomb, and his wings were good too! And my ceasar salad was delicious! We will definitely be back sooner than later!

The atmosphere here is wonderful very classy and tasteful. The food is amazing and taste like it’s made by someone who takes pride in the craft of cooking a meal for someone else. You can show up dressed casual but it’s so nice you will feel underdressed. Definitely a hidden jewel and a favorite place to get away. Bartenders are welcoming and lovely, drinks have never missed a beat.

Noodles and Company is a delightful counter-service chain that specializes in an array of international noodle and pasta dishes, ranging from classic mac 'n' cheese to flavorful Pad Thai. Many patrons rave about the quality of their food, noting that it arrives hot and well-prepared, with attention to detail in fulfilling special requests. Customers appreciate the speedy service; some have experienced customized orders ready in just 90 seconds!
I was picking up a DD order and bought some noddles while I waited. Only, I didn’t have to wait. The staff said “hook this guy up” and my customized order was done in 90 seconds. Cooked on point and it tasted extra delicious cause of the service. I had to call in to say thanks. Good job for going above and beyond. I’ll be back for sure without an order to pick up.

This review is for the location in Bowie, MD. Since I was in the area and there isn't one located where I live, I stopped in. First, what I ordered inside came up as "unavailable" at this location within the app. Second, what I ordered, was "EXTRA" Parmesan Crusted Chicken. As you can see from the photo...that is not extra. I did check my receipt and it looks as if the cashier did not charge me for it after she confirmed it TWICE! Third, the photo of that vegetable on the plastic top, appears to be Zucchini...I guess??? Whatever it is...I DON'T EAT IT! I asked what was in this dish because Stroganoff is no longer on the menu. Outside of having the mushrooms substituted with Broccoli, tge cashier said spinach was the only other vegetable included. Last but certainly not least is the sauce...or lack there of!! Where is it?! Why is the extra so minimal if they already know they barely add any in the first place?! Listen, I'm not saying not to visit this location but please don't do what I did...forget that folks are still functioning in "COVID" mode and are either minimizing or forgetting...check your food before leaving 😏😉

I didn't even take a picture of my food but everything was perfect. From the bag being sealed to the food still being hot upon arrival. The pasta was perfectly al dente & they included everything I asked for on the side. Many businesses fail delivery orders but I'm extremely pleased with the customer service and care put into my order, I just wanted to leave a positive review to highlight my experience. Sn: I haven't had noodles & company in about 6 years so l'm so glad it came prepared well. (Usual order: Penne Rosa w/ Parm chicken. They don't have that anymore so I got Rigatoni Rosa-taste exactly the same, just different noodles)

The worst customer service I have ever experienced at this location. They gave me the wrong order. When I went back to get it corrected, the cashier had an attitude with me as if it was my fault. She was so disrespectful that I decided to get a refund after already dealing with the issue for over an hour. I will not be going back to this location again.
Philip S — Google review
Went for the first time. We ordered the Japanese noodles with steak and the spicy beef. Portions were small, didn't even go past half the bowl for the regular size. It was more of a snack size portion at $21, it was a bit too pricey. Will not return as there are other places where I know I will get my money's worth. Not worth the drive. Staff was friendly.
