This was my first time back at this location fo 2 hour bowling. I noticed some management changes. They did a great job with upgrading the electronics on the lanes and had great music. Prices are a tad bit higher but well worth it. I’m happy to see Adam and Carol are still there. All and all….Good vibes!!!!

You yelled at a childs coach because the child left an honest review of the terrible day she had there. Shame on you. I hope she leaves it up.

We had a family bowling party here. The first time in a few years. We had the whole alley to ourselves.

Small vintage and relaxing bowling alley. We had a good experience. The two employees at the counter were very accommodating and friendly! They helped us with everything we needed and we will definitely be coming to this alley more.

Had my nieces party here and it was a blast. We ordered pizza and had soda, rented 2 lanes out for 2 hours. There was approximately 10-12 people so 6 & 6 worked out perfect. At the end it was really nice of then to give her a bowling pin 🎳 that was decorated with happy birthday and her name. That was really appreciated. The guys behind the counter were really nice and helpful. The music was a great mix of genres from different decades. It was great 👍 and it was easy to fall into the fun.
