Landmark lanes is definitely a historical experience. The lanes are mostly functional (personally had issues with 2 lanes - however, the employees were very kind to refund a game for the issues). Lots of pool tables, fun arcade games, and some bar areas to hang around.
Love this place. Different bars for different types of atmospheres. Love each one. Great lanes
I guess if you're looking for a bar with the ambiance of a bowling alley, this is a good place. Good tap list, nice people. But if you actually bowl and want to partake, stay away. For one, there is barely any parking, so in all likelihood you'll be dragging your equipment a long distance, and it's down 2 flights of stairs with no elevator. Secondly, the lanes were so devoid of oil, I couldn't even keep a plastic ball on the lane without throwing it dead straight, even when lofted. My group had 3 lanes and they were all the same. For future reference this is Thursday night in November, so prime bowling season, and there's no way they've run an oil machine in at least a week.
I love landmark lanes. It’s like a fever dream visit to the past. Truly a diverse crowd and ample space to bring a group for a night out. TouchTunes, pool, bowling, games and karaoke? What else could you want?? Yes it’s underground and yes it has a vintage aura but I wouldn’t love it half as much if it was different.
This place is in the basement , well maintained. 8$ per person per game for bowling, pool table has waiting time on weekends. Beer pitchers are great. Bar service is good. They don’t have a kitchen so there’s no food.
