The Alameda Theatre is very convienent, the parking house is right around the corner, and you can park for free, Once you pay one time parking you will get a coupon for your next visit. They have several shows running at the same time in different theatres inside. the seating is very comfortable. I recommend it very much.

My rating of 5 stars is based on the following services, staff interactions and facilities I experienced during my visit on Dec 17, 2019. Time spent at the venue: 13:00 to 16:30 PM, games played: 6. My Experience at Subpar MiniGolf: Customer Service: When I go to the US, I love to minigolf, but the listed pricing they did not have all-day rate. So call the venue and manager offered me a deal, based on my circumstances, and on Dec 17, 2019 the arrangement we was noted and honored in their records. *I am not going to list the details as this was a special arrangement and it was honors because I was by myself. Customer Service during play: Pretty good! They also informed me that they had a office party coming in and had to attend to them. But I had time so it was a none issue. Food and Beverage: The course is equip for players to carry around their Alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages, because the hole marks are equipped with cup holders. That is very innovative as I have not seen that at any mini Golf venues I have visited. They can accommodate and cater to large groups, specifically adults as I was playing around an office party while I was there. (Rating based on service observed and presentation of the catered food provided to the office party only) Facilities: There is an arcade as well as the mini Golf course, there are programmable lockers (for paying customers), as well as cup holders on the Hole markers. The layout of the course will give you an overview of all attractions to visit and see in San Francisco, as all 18 holes are based on the main tourist sites and landmarks related to San Francisco. So if you are planning a trip to San Francisco I would definitely recommend visiting Subpar Minigolf for a round of Golf.
