Been going here since I was young, I love the atmosphere and how it feels old school compared to the new bowling alleys with lights popping out everywhere. The food is ok, I mean it's a bowling alley not a restaurant, but regardless, the bowling experience here is amazing every time.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need a reservation?

Walk-ins are welcome anytime, but Friday and Saturday nights fill up fast — come early to grab a lane.

How much does a game cost?

Open bowling runs a few bucks a game per person and shoe rental is included. Family Hour and Glow Bowl have their own flat rates — check the Pricing section.

Do you have bumper lanes?

We sure do — bumpers go up on any lane so the littlest bowlers knock 'em down right alongside everyone else.

Can I bring my own ball?

Absolutely. Bring your own ball, bag, and shoes, or grab everything you need right here at the front desk.

Do you serve food and drinks?

You bet — the Pub & Pizza kitchen sends hand-tossed pies, hot baskets, and ice-cold beer straight to your lane until close.
