BRANSON, Mo – Branson has an addition to the already tourist focused town, Andy B’s Bowl Social. The Operations Manager is tourist minded and wants visitors to have a memorable time.

The new entertainment venue welcomed visitors its first week open during the very first week of February. The franchise now has presence in Missouri with locations in Springfield and Branson. According to its website, Andy B’s focus is fun for all ages. With places like Silver Dollar City, the shows and other family centered attractions, Andy B’s fits in and brings something new.

Cory Meyer is the Operations Manager at Andy B’s. Meyer is responsible for the games, the escape rooms and the front desk. He meets job interviewees at the front desk. He is a friendly and young professional; Meyer’s energy matches that of the bowling alley’s: new, exciting, fresh and friendly. Sitting in the haunted “House of Dread” themed escape room he said,“We are so much more than just a bowling alley. We really look to be an all encompassing social atmosphere.” Meyer said they offer a multitude of table games; while bowling is their main activity, Andy B’s tries to provide something for everyone.

In addition to their two escape rooms, Andy B’s is preparing to open a third one. Meyer said Andy B’s has two karaoke rooms as well that can be rented for an hour, but they also offer free games to visitors looking to utilize their time in between bowling. The free games include Giant Jenga, Bag Toss and others. Meyer said their location is great for hosting events too.

“Birthday parties are very popular here. It’s an impressive venue; seeing the place, it’s very stylish and people want to impress company when they bring them here,” he said. The environment is rich with sound of pins collapsing, colorful television displays, lights and the smell of a full kitchen. Their kitchen’s menu is designed with the sharable concept in mind.“We’re going for the social atmosphere here, so we have a lot of sharable appetizers,” Meyer said. Their menu is a new take on American classics like burgers and other American dishes.

He said his favorite part of working at Andy B’s is the atmosphere. “I love when I come to work, especially when we have live music. It’s just a vibrant atmosphere,” Meyer said. He also stated that it’s a joy to be around people having fun. Meyer said people should come to Andy B’s because there is no way they will not have fun. “There’s always something to do for everybody here. It’s designed to interact with your friends. We’re not a video bar, we’re not [a place] where you’re going to dive your head into your phone or your laptop or anything like that. We want you interacting and creating memories here and you’ll do that,” he said.
