TopGolf offers family entertainment with a second Bay Area location in Burlingame

BURLINGAME, Calif. (KGO) — There’s a big buzz along the peninsula just a short drive from SFO as the Bay Area’s second TopGolf location is now open.

Three years after San Jose opened its entertainment center, the Burlingame location opened and it didn’t take long to fill up with golfers.

What was once a driving range along Anza Boulevard in Burlingame has now transformed and is already living up to the hype.

No skill level required, it’s an experience everyone can truly benefit from.

Think golf meets bowling mixed with restaurant and nightclub – fun for longtime golfers and new top golfers alike.

“I love it. I’ve been waiting for this one to open,” Jeff Garcia said.

“It’s the perfect place to spend your lunch break, huh?” » asked ABC7 News South Bay reporter Dustin Dorsey.

“That’s exactly what I’m doing right now,” Garcia said. “But I might not come back.”

“So many things are overpriced for this level of family entertainment and that’s what TopGolf offers,” said Eddie Colin, director of operations for TopGolf Burlingame.

It is one of three prime locations in the country offering one-of-a-kind specialty features.

“Little gifts like these, our swings,” Colin said. “So you can play golf at any other resort in the United States and around the world. But we also have baseball here, you have hockey, you have soccer and one of my favorite games is to play dodgeball against zombies.”

There are also other games, bar areas, good food and, of course, the flagship TopGolf range for all abilities.

There is no shortage of ways to have a good time.

“TopGolf is all about having fun and coming out of the closet,” Colin said. “It’s golf, but it’s not golf. It’s a place to come together, a camaraderie, to laugh, to mingle and just be with friends and family.”
