The Zone not only has an arcade, laser tag, and a four-lane bowling alley, this Ashburn entertainment venue also serves food that's good enough to write home about. It is truly the whole package when it comes to recreation!

The Zone is not only a great place to enjoy lunch or dinner, it is also a great place to host a birthday party or go to summer camp. If you choose to have your child’s party here, all you have to do is show up. They handle everything else. If you send your child to The Zone for camp, they can enjoy a full or half day, and have fun with the establishment activities. They will also learn to cook, swim and enjoy nature, as well.

It’s not uncommon for renters to have restrictions when it comes to making changes to the look of the unit; however, there are a number of other ways to brighten up your space without the use of paint. Here are just a few!

1. Add a pop of color in the kitchen by mixing and matching brightly hued chairs with a neutral table. Paint your existing set in a bright yellow, rich navy blue, or trendy turquoise.
2. Set out vases of fresh flowers throughout your home for an all-natural burst of color. Think daisies, hydrangeas, and tulips in equally colorful vases.
3. Top your bed and sofa with a variety of mismatched throw pillows in complementary hues. While they don’t all have to match completely, choosing one color scheme will help you to keep things looking stylish.
4. Add artwork from local thrift stores and home decor shops housed in painted frames. You can also try a “dipped” look by painting the entire bottom half of the painting and frame in one bright shade.
5. Add removable wallpaper that you can easily peel off when your lease is up. Use a floral or striped style on one accent wall for a magazine-worthy look.

Local families say The Zone offers a good time for all with bowling, arcade games, and laser tag for patrons of all ages. The contemporary bowling lanes at this Ashburn facility can detect which players need the bumper rails and which do not, so every member of the family gets a fun and frustration-free playing experience.

Regulars say the food here is pretty good for bowling alley fare. Menu offerings include the grilled peppercorn sirloin salad, the Zoom burger, the grilled Atlantic salmon, and the smoked baby back ribs. Enjoy food and beverage service right at your table next to the lanes. You can even catch the game on the big-screen TV while you bowl.

If bowling isn’t your thing, or if you’re just not ready to call it a night after you’ve bowled your last frame, take the kids to the arcade. If you’re on a grown-ups' night out, enjoy a drink at the sports bar or on the patio.
