2nd year in a row coming here to do the kids bowl free summer program. Such a great price. My kids never want to play for more than one hour or one game. So $35 for 4 kids for 3 months only paying for shoes is a steal. They have a great selection of food for adults and kids. Really wish they’d have more selection for deserts (just ice cream bars—they melt really fast). For a while we would get grilled cheeses, bust stopped since most of the time it was burnt. I have little little kids, so the dragon slides they have for the bowling balls are really helpful. I’d like to call out certain people that work there for positive feedback, but nobody wears a name tag. I like the cartoons on the monitors where the kids can make silly faces to go with the cartoons. We will definitely come and do the kids bowl free summer program again next year if we are still here.
If you want to avoid the rowdy crowds noisy atmosphere of off base bowling centers, this is the place to go. If you want to have a family / work event that won’t drain your bank account, but still have fun bowling, this is the place to go. Where else can you find great food, great staff, and clean / updated lanes. Thank you for hosting the Wounded Warrior Project, everyone had a blast.
Great place to bowl with awesome food and inexpensive drinks. The prices have gone up over the years, but on Tuesday they have $2 games.
This place is the best kept secret of dining experiences on Kirtland AFB. I found it by accident but am not unaware to the hidden secrets of bowling alleys on military installations. Give it a try if you have to come out for a while and have some free time. Foods great and very well priced, and they have beers on tap.
Kids from school had a great time and the new manager Pat went over and above to help us out. He also kept checking on our group to make sure all was functioning correctly. Kitchen staff also did an outstanding job in having all the food ready!!

Family-friendly bowling, great food, and affordable fun on Kirtland AFB.
