Stars & Strikes in Smyrna, Tennessee, opened its doors on September 18, 2018, establishing itself as the twelfth location for the Georgia-based entertainment chain and its first in the state. The 54,000-55,000 square foot facility, situated in a former Kmart building at 333 N Lowry Street, was developed with a reported investment exceeding $7 million and created over 100 local jobs. It quickly became a significant recreational hub for the Smyrna community, addressing a local need for family entertainment identified by a city study.
This expansive family entertainment center offers a diverse range of attractions, including 24 bowling lanes, with eight designated as VIP lanes, some featuring SPARK augmented reality bowling. Guests can also enjoy a 7,000-7,300 square foot arcade and prize store showcasing both classic and contemporary games, a two-story laser tag arena, bumper cars, axe throwing at Lumberjack Alley, virtual reality experiences, and Escapology escape rooms. The venue further provides a full-service experience with the 7/10 Grille restaurant, a large bar area, and multiple private rooms suitable for various events, from birthday parties to corporate gatherings. Beyond entertainment, Stars & Strikes actively engages in community support, partnering with organizations like the American Cancer Society and FurKids, and hosting annual Christmas parties for foster children.
