Frequently Asked Questionsat TopgolfTampa

In short, we’re a sports entertainment complex that features an inclusive, high-tech golf game that everyone can enjoy. Paired with an outstanding food and beverage menu, climate-controlled hitting bays and music, every Topgolf has an energetic hum that you can feel right when you walk through the door. 

Our patented technology allows you to track your golf ball and accurately score each shot based on the target it enters. Which also means we can’t get into the details of how it actually works.

Topgolf venues are also adding Toptracer technology, allowing you to see a real-time trace of your ball's flight path as well as insights into speed, distance, angle and accuracy. Basically, everything you’d ever want to know about your shot. Learn more and see which games are available here.

We’ll answer this question with a question—how do YOU play?! At Topgolf, our games and tech mean no two visits are the same. You can invite your regular golf foursome for a fun evening or your family for a party. Just know that our games require you to swing the club and hit the ball into the outfield. 

Prices depend on your venue, so please refer to your venue’s page at topgolf.com/locations for specific details on the price of game play. Keep in mind, our pricing is by the bay per hour, not per person. That makes all the difference.

Zero dollars. Free. Nothing. All our clubs are complimentary to use during game play. We have clubs for men, ladies, left-handers, right-handers, kids, and toddlers for your convenience. Men’s and women’s clubs are already in each bay.

Our bays comfortably accommodate 6 people with a max of 6 playing the game, but up to 8 people can be in a bay. For safety reasons, only one person can be hitting at one time.

Heck no! Topgolf is a game that anyone can play and enjoy, even if you’re getting more hole-in-nones than hole-in-ones. If your swing has more “room for improvement” than you’d like, we offer lessons and classes.

Is it ever! Each Topgolf venue has a full restaurant and bar with local brews to classic cocktails and a chef-driven menu led by an accomplished Executive Chef. With shareable portions and fresh, high-quality ingredients, you'll find the food and drinks as enjoyable as the games. Once in a bay, our Bayhosts are happy to get all the eats and sips you want while you play.

Topgolf reserves the right not to serve alcohol to any Guest under 21, even if state law allows service in the presence of a parent or guardian.

Topgolf invites everyone to Come Play Around, and we pride ourselves on creating a safe, fun, welcoming place for all. Kids are welcome! 

Anyone under 16 must be supervised by a Guest 21+ at all times. Anyone under 18 must be supervised by a Guest 21+ after 9:00pm.

At Topgolf, everyone's well-being is very important. We are committed to providing an excellent experience in a welcoming and inclusive environment so we can have fun together. Combining a few laughs, great food, and hours of Topgolf can create some epic memories. So for all parties involved, and we do mean parties, please follow our code of conduct:

• We are committed to providing a positive experience for all our Guests and we do not tolerate any acts of racism, violence or discrimination.
• Obey all verbal and posted rules and instructions. Use common sense to protect yourself and others.
• All players must hit from the mat at all times. No running starts (we all loved that movie too).
• Only the person hitting a ball should stand beyond the red line. All other players should stand behind the red line at all times. Players are responsible for the safety of others around them and should always check their surroundings before swinging a club.
• Aim for the targets at all times - how else are you going to score? Hitting golf balls over the boundary netting is prohibited, and all players are responsible for damages or injuries caused by any balls hit outside of the premises. (Topgolf balls report back to us when they’ve lost their way outside our nets…)
• Throwing golf balls is prohibited.
• Any Guest under 16, or under 18 after 9pm, must always be supervised by a Guest over 21.
• Players must stay behind the yellow line at all times. Please take extra care when playing from upstairs bays.
• Topgolf is not responsible for lost or stolen items.

Thank you for being courteous and respectful to all Guests & Associates while enjoying your time at Topgolf.

At Topgolf, safety has been and remains our #1 priority. We are committed to maintaining a clean, welcoming and fun environment to keep our Guests and Associates healthy and safe.

Facemask Requirements
Since introducing our Commitment to Play Safely, we’ve followed guidance from the CDC and remained in compliance with any state and local government mandates – and we’ll continue to do that now and moving forward. With this in mind, Topgolf no longer requires Guests to wear a mask in our venues, except where required by state or local laws or regulations. A list of venues that still require facemasks to be worn can be viewed here.

Safely-Spaced Hitting Bays
An outdoor and spacious experience for all Guests with 11 feet from tee to tee.

Committed to Cleanliness
Topgolf has earned the Ecolab Science Certified™ seal at all US venues. Designed by the experts that help keep hospitals clean, The Ecolab Science Certified program requirements help ensure the venue is cleaned throughout the day and common areas are regularly disinfected. Learn more at ScienceCertified.com.

Associate Health and Safety
We require our Associates to complete a wellness check prior to starting to work. Additionally, all Associates must follow frequent handwashing protocols, per CDC guidelines.

If you’re more comfortable playing with your own clubs, we have designated areas within our bays to store them. We will also store your clubs in our club room if we happen to be on a wait so that you can enjoy our venue without lugging them around.

At most of our venues, we have complimentary Xbox, shuffleboard, foosball and games inside or outside on the patio. We also put on kids academies in the spring and summer to help better your child’s game. To enroll in one, check out topgolf.com/families.

We are open every holiday except Thanksgiving and Christmas. So yes, we’re open on Groundhog’s Day and Flag Day.

Yes, we have general parking. And if you don’t want to park your own car, we have valet parking at some venues. And if you don’t want to drive your own car to Topgolf, get a ride with our partner Lyft. We’ve got you covered no matter how you want to get here.

Unless it’s an extreme weather event, nothing can stop a good time at Topgolf, not even rain or snow. Our venues are all-weather facilities with covered hitting bays that are fitted with fans for the summer and heaters for the winter.

Topgolf is a pet-free venue - this includes dogs, pets, therapy and emotional support or comfort animals. The only exception is for service animals aiding a Guest with a disability.

Technically, we do not have a formal/golf dress code. Fashion is a fun way of expressing yourself, and it wouldn’t be cool of us to hinder that. Just keep in mind, we’re still a public establishment.

As long as you’re wearing shoes, you’re good to play! You can wear golf shoes if you want, but they aren’t required—if you do, no metal spikes please (also, where did you find metal spikes?!).

You absolutely can! Thanks to our Toptracer tech, we’re a great place to work on your game or just play a few games. Thanks to our unmatched vibe, you can also eat, drink, and watch the game too. 

Topgolf is the home of play but not the home of medical professionals. If you have concerns about your ability to play our games, we suggest you speak with your doctor before visiting. But golf and our version of it is pretty low impact!

Yes! Every level at Topgolf is wheelchair accessible. You can also ask your Bayhost to get you an ADA hitting mat and tee. Elevators are available in multi-level venues, and our hitting bays are large enough to allow you to play in a wheelchair comfortably.

We do not allow smoking or vaping inside the building or on the teeline.

Only small flash photography cameras, point-and-shoot cameras, and cell phones will be allowed for filming at our venues, but no professional lenses or lenses over 3" are permitted. A gimble to stabilize the phone/camera is fine. No drones or audio recorders allowed.

If a professional filming crew or a bigger camera(s) is being brought into the venue, please send your filming request to press@topgolf.com a minimum of five business days in advanced for review.

NOTE: We do not allow drones or GoPros attached to any Topgolf property.

Topgolf does not allow weapons of any kind, including the concealed carry of guns, in any venue. You’ll find state-specific signage near the front entry door.

We sure do! You can reserve a bay (for 1-6 people) or book multiple bays (for 7 or more people) ahead of time at any of our U.S. venues. Options available vary by venue, so click below to start planning, check availability and view pricing.

Topgolf originated from the timeless golf question, "Who hit it closer?" Originally called "Target Oriented Practice Golf," the founders of Topgolf used proprietary radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology and dartboard-style targets to answer this question, and the first Topgolf venue was created in Watford in the United Kingdom in 2000.

Over the next 20+ years, Topgolf would become a movement opening new venues, constantly innovating to improve the guest experience, and expanding experiential platforms to create a global community.

You can play one of our many golf games, enjoy some of our tasty handcrafted foods, watch the game in our bar area, shop for cool merch—you get the point! Your Topgolf experience is truly up to you, and we have plenty to keep you busy. 

Topgolf is both outside and inside, but you’ll never be exposed to the elements. Each of our hitting bays is covered, offers overhead heating, and good protection from weather of all kinds. You can Come Play Around in nearly any hot, cold, wet, or snowy condition. It’s up to you.

You bet! You’re completely covered, and we have heaters above you if it gets chilly. 

Our Toptracer ball tracing tech takes your play experience to another level and is available at many venues, but not every venue just yet. You can see if a specific venue has Toptracer on our locations page.

We are always looking for new places to bring joy with our unique style of play – be sure to check out our press page for all the latest updates on our new venue openings and new location announcements.
