Website said one bowling at 5:00 on Saturday so my wife and I showed up at 5:30. The older man at the front desk told me the lanes were closed for cleaning til 7:15. Left and tried sequoia lanes who were busy so we called to see if they had an update on the cleaning. Larry who answered the phone said lanes are open but get there soon because they are filling up. Wife called back to see if we could get a reservation and said the lanes are wide open and that reservations aren’t taken. Not sure how we get turned away for cleaning that’s over an hour and is all of a sudden a ten minute thing.

Nothing like it. Great staff. Love the vintage nostalgic decor from when I was a kid, yet it's still clean and have updated and they have modernized the lanes. Great pizza and burgers (actually). Didn't try the wingies but I bet those smack too. Everything you want a bowling alley to be 💯👍👌

We had so much fun here! There was lots of security (police officers), but they were friendly and kind. I believe Angie worked the front counter and she was absolutely the sweetest! They have a lot of lanes and many game options for bowling (if you want something more than traditional bowling). The arcade was on the small side, but I thought their game selection was fun. The Space Invaders game has seats and big "guns" that rubble when you use them. It was a refreshing update to the classic. There was a Tomb Raider game, Ski Ball, and Injustice game, a game for lots of tickets, and a few others. The bar inside the alley was super fun, too. It felt like a vintage saloon you'd find out west. The bartenders were cheerful and expedient.

Friends and I go bowling here from time to time. They have plenty of lanes. Things are kept working well and if any problems they take care of it. The lady at the counter recognized us from being there before. Five of us played a lane for an hour and we were able to get a full game in with a few minutes to spare, so that was $14 a person including shoes. They serve fresh hot food there such as pizza. You counter order it and they make it while you bowl, then announce your order over the PA when it is ready. Like most bowling lanes, you can't eat or drink on the hard wood bowling floor, but there's a carpeted area with tables and chairs just a few steps away So you can eat while watching others in your group bowl, then jump back in when it's your turn. A fun and pleasant time at a reasonable price.
