Matt Jarratt

Nice place to go for the afternoon . The bathrooms are a bit stinky but your there for the bowling right!? Lol, have a beer and forget the smell

Alex Poly

Overall a pretty good experience, minus some of the equipment being old. 4/5

Alexander Forbes

Went for a birthday. Staff seemed very disorganized. Told us we could bring in pizza and cake from outside when planning as they dont have food. Then we were told the opposite once the food arrived. Also were given a per game price and were then told after we started playing we'd have to pay per hour, which was more. We eventually were allowed both the food and original price after some arguing.

p moghrabi

Well organized and cheerful

Graham Scott

Thank you. That's all I can say.

Toms Metal Kitchen

Not a bad place to go for a group birthday party.

Marina Turner

Great fun place to have a good time. Safety measures and appropriate cleaning procedures to keep the public safe. Definitely will go again ????

amber macneill

2 floors of bowling lanes. Staff is always friendly. Prices are compairable to other bowling alleys.

John Wheeler

Cheesy bowling fun

Valerie Ward

Very fun place

Steven

Good place to go to for cheap bowling. Decent selection of beverages. It has this 1980/90s vibe to the whole place. Overall pretty decent!

Jimmy Co

Affordable but the areas kind of sketchy.

Chris Rothney

Not a bad place to bowl. No real food to eat.

Jess W

Had never been here before, was so much fun! The glow bowl was on all day which the kids loved. Was a great way to spend a cold afternoon. Music was awesome as well!

Samah Dahrouge

Going late at night is the best time to enjoy a quite date night with good music!

Linda Lawrence

Made room for us on a busy night, excellent service even when fast paced and decent price for flat rate timed bowling!

Curtis Pruski

Nice vintage place to bowl. But the staff wasn't so polite.

Monty Ross

It was fun place to visit! Very busy and the service was a bit slow. Our balls kept getting stuck but they always came right away to try and solve the issue.

Dean Laue

Love the neon

Vanessa Rae

You need to wear your mask the whole time but they had the lanes spaced out and were still serving drinks and food. Everything was clean and the music was fantastic 90% of the time.

Richard M

Kids had fun... Needs a reno.. Looking tired

Aidan Villa

I grew up around Bronx bowling so my opinion may be a tad biased but I have to say I really do love that bowling alley. I still frequently go there and I have a good Tim every time.

Mark Hubley (Farmer000000)

Older bowling alley with good prices. Check it out

Abuk kuer

Had fun when I went there for the first time.

Holly Bruneau

Fun, a little pricey and not much for munchies.

Swann 2120

A friendly fun place to go with the family.

Silvio Filice

One of the better bowling alleys on the north side, clean, well priced bowling.

Jody T

Excellent customer service

Alanna Mazekulua

Needs renovations badly

Taylor Garstad

Definitely a dated bowling alley, but the staff is friendly and the price is right for a family or group of friends to head out bowling!

owen k

Great old school 5 pin bowling.

Mariah McGregor

A little outdated and some maintenance needed done.

Daniel

Good place for casual 5 pin. Balls on our lane were chipped, and staff seemed rather disinterested. Casual atmosphere, good location!

Jana

Such a good time! Recommend for friends and family

omar kabbani

my family and I went there and has lots of fun

William Mitchell

It's easy to forget just how fun bowling is if you haven't been in a while- but you'll remember as soon as you come in here. Friendly atmosphere, fun times to be had. Great for an evening or afternoon with some friends!

Chris Varga

There was no bowling here it was all Balls

Eric Larocque

Love this place

Mario Avalos

Is a good place for kids of all ages

Josh Le

Old-school, but incredibly charming 5-pin bowling. If you ever get the chance, try bingo bowling - such a fun, but challenging experience.

Sexy Rexy

I don't think I was there

Desseri Ackerman

Quiet bowling alley. However, with so many open lanes, was not impressed that someone without lane etiquette was put right beside us.

Adam Patterson

Excellent pizza!

Brooks Brown

Great place to hold work party bowling parties and birthday parties!

its zoe

super fun place to hang out! really nice worker and i love the glow in the dark theme. not to mention the cost was quite low.

Najma Jafar

Great for families and friends.

Juliette McLean

Reasonably priced fun, but some additional updating and an expanded menu would be nice.

Heather Baier

Had my son's birthday party here. Couldn't have been better! An hour of bowling and an hour in the party room was perfectly timed. Super fun and easy on the parents!

Marcel Godin

Fun

Caitlin Higgins

Great spot, it want busy when we were there but hear it's best to call ahead about Lanes. It is very old school, but seemed in good shape. Highly recommend

Rose

Great!

Melissa Farrell

Fun night out

restie tooke

Only 5 pins available

dhruval

Went there for christmas party from wprk , was good place but its more for kids , recommend for teenagers as well.

Stephen

It's a bowling alley that has the feel of a bus terminal.

Stevie Jakkson

Had fun. Still prefere ten pin bowling. Is there a ten pin bowling facility in North Edmonton? Thanks

Pankul Chawla

At weekends this place outshine in colour blue! Feels too amazing, a nice and budget friendly place to enjoy bowling sport..

Will B

Went tonight not busy then it died. But it was 10pm by then. We ordered a LG pepperoni and fountain drinks. The pizza sauce could have had more flavour and please serve the drinks with ice? All in all my family had fun. Would definitely go again and recommend for family fun.

Mike Kasper

Typical bowling alley. Went for a work function and had fun. Guy at the counter was helpful and tolerant to 8 drunk guys. Had a fun time, no complaints. A bit dated building and decor, but you pay to bowl... not look at art.

Danny Cripps

Not bad for a family. The weed out side of the premises gave me this review. ????

Rodney Dean

Fun for all!

Ivy

Very fun and pretty quite mostly

Michael E Wifladt

Had a blast!

Maxwell

Flavoredspore71

Do not come here at all Bad system waste of money with all the money they make make it god dam better like

Silvio Jimenez

Love this place

Orrey Metz

One of the best bowling alleys in the city. There staff is friendly, beers are well priced normally have a short wait time (If any at all). Would have rated five star but they cant make white Russians.... How are you suppose to reenact the big lebowski without them.

Lizzie King

Classic fun bowling!! ????

Trevor Kirk

Great night out for family or friends

Teady Bear429

Good times

Darren Donahue

Definitely has a bit of dated retro charm! The glow bowling lanes downstairs are well air-conditioned, clean, and the lanes are smooth and well-maintained. Staff were super friendly. A fun & affordable way to spend an hour or two. Don't forget to wear socks!

SilvioJ 11

Love this place

Cindy-Lee Samuel

A lot of fun! Neon bowling was a first for me, but I enjoyed it. Definitely reserve a lane on a Friday night, as it was fairly busy. At 8 bucks a game, shoes included, a very affordable option!

Rob Anhorn

One of the few remaining 5-pin bowling alleys in Edmonton... A bit run down, but functional. Licenced for alcoholic beverages. Black-light/neon bowling times. League bowling available.

Truong Huy Nguyen

Not too much crowded, it's really fun to spend your time with friends here

Kent

Great classic atmosphere. Friendly and quick staff. Lots of fun.

Aaron Gayle

Great spot and prices are good

R. Barry Hunt

Fun night out!

Shay Butter

Staff seemed a little busy with their phones but I mean the place is usually pretty dead on weekdays which Is awesome because you can sit down with your family and have a nice quiet night of fun. We tried to goto a different ally at 7 in st albert and the wait was until 9 so this place is definitely a good choice if you have some bedtime restrictions. Also throwback to when I was like 8 (18 almost 19 now)

Omar Hajar

My whole life I've been going to Bronx Bowling because it's the only bowling place I know that offers glow-in-the-dark bowling. I've gone there for birthday parties, hanging out with friends and family, and the atmosphere there is always great.

Patrick Cruickshank

Came for an event with Co workers

Kevin B

Bowl in a Sunday night league, it was a struggle to give it a 3/5... The cleanliness of the washroom is atrocious, multiple maintenance issues need fixing, also they don't serve non alcoholic drinks. Other than all that stuff, It's a decent place to bowl.

Frank Black

Fun

Jeff Miles

A little run down, poor quality balls, but still the cheapest option for bowling in the area and a good time nonetheless.

Marcel Godin

Fun

Aman Ubhi

The best ????????????????????????

balighy

Thisisn't Myrealname

The kids had a good time.. the guys behind the desk gotta work on their people skills

Matt Ayres

A nostalgic north side bowling experience! It's retro and probably requires some renovation and better maintenance of the restrooms but that's also part of its charm. Keep your expectations low and your tolerance for fun on high. Also, be sure to have cash for the juke box and rock all night to Paradise by the Dashboard Light!

Keana Shadows

Great place for all ages

R2M3

Good to go there

Taylor White

An alright place to bowl, definitely not a hang out spot though. The place is incredibly dated, but that kind of adds to the charm. My issue is that last time I went I paid to use the lane for I believe half hour and my pins got stuck. I needed to find someone to fix the issue and wait for it to be resolved. This took almost 10 minutes, I was not given any extra time for the inconvenience, so I was down to 20 minutes bowling time. As a result we decided to not stay any longer and leave.

Green eyed baby boy

Had my sons birthday party n it was fun we ordered pizza n allowed to bring in the cake everyone had a great time. Staff were great n friendly

karla zenchyson

Very clean and comfortable setting ..had a great time with the family affordable fun .. Great customer service..

Aaron Clifford

Our kids do the bowling league on Saturdays here. The lanes are good, the staff are nice and it's really affordable.

Leah Mackechnie

Nobody around to assist us. Left after waiting 10 minutes. No one at the counter. Door for upstairs locked with a note downstairs open only.

John Vogelaar

Not enough balls, too many loud children. Least attentive staff I've ever encountered.

CANADA

Fun spot

Gary Meldrum Music

Went here for a year end school party. The people seemed to care about what was going on and stepped in the fix any minor mishaps.

Amanda Henderson

Stinky downstairs, over priced. Loved the jukebox.

Jubillee Cardinal

Good little place to go on a date. Have a few drinks and listen to some music while bowling. Its a good environment to be sober as Well. Looks a bit old school but it gives it character and makes it a cute place for a date. Would go again.

Evan Watson

It's ok

Lizzie King

Classic fun bowling!! ????

Jordan Jennings

Was fun but had a huge issue with the service. The blonde lady working last night grabbed her backpack and left for an hour? We had no service , no way to get drinks. She finally comes back around 930 and I go to order 2 drinks. Sign on the counter lists all the drinks, mostly all 5.50. I got a rum and come and a cooler. Should have been 11 bucks but she said 13.75. I had asked how much the cooler was and she said 6.5. okay, so it should have been 12 dollars all day, why is my total 13.75? The sign literally right here says 5.50. She then replies "oh the prices just changed im sorry." I then replied with right this second because the sign literally says 5.50 right here. She then has the audacity to say yes, right now and grabbed the sign and removed it. This is absolutely ridiculous and horrible service. The fact I waited an entire hour and then she didn't honour the price listed, horrible service and brutal experience.

Starlene Boymer

Even though I bowl here every week, the alley is not very clean. It is known that if you can get a good average here, you can bowl anywhere. They could stand to change the fluorescent lighting out at the back of the lanes for the new LED tubes on the top floor. It could also use some new paint to brighten up the walls and ceilings.

Peter Tan

Despite its location, the bowling alley is well kept and is clean.

Solomon Yifru

It was my first experience playing a 5 ball bowling...

Rebecca V

Bronx doesn't have bells and whistles but the facility is well run, the bowling is fun, well priced, and lots of different snacks and beverages to choose from! Our friends come here on the weekend for glow bowling and it is always a blast

Audrey Styre

It is great for kids birthday parties black light atmosphere. We went as a group of adults not realizing we would be down stairs I have to admit we had a great time

brandy carty

This place is great. It's a small facility with a very clean bowling area. The staff were great about helping get the kids settled. Love the neon bowling on the weekends. Added a new level of fun!

Emily Hansen

Went for family bowling night and won’t be back. The place is very run down, smells of sewer and not just the bathrooms. The music was insanely loud my kids were crying; and the most inappropriate sound effects of people having sex came on. Blaring through the speakers. They didn’t stop it, didn’t lower the volume ; but the two men behind the counter just laughed. They claim to be a family bowling alley; and yet have 1 unsturdy, home made bowling assistant which we share between 3 different lanes of strangers. We will not be back. Don’t waste your money.

courtney bowers

Old school bowling lanes. Wicked little spot

Ryan Russell

The lanes are clean and in good condition. Lots of lanes.... an upstairs and downstairs. The building is extremely old and could use a bit of a reno but I'm there for the bowling!!!!!!!! Good times!

Jay B

Overbooked and understaffed

Grant Moore

Had a great time glow bowling . Great to go and kill some time on a sunday evening

Haylee Chorney

Favourite place for spur of the moment bowling, always go and there are lanes available! Family friendly as well!

Gurbax Lotey

Fun place very friendly staff

Cassandra Wade

Nice, well kept bowling lanes with all the options, like glow and bumper bowling.

Jennifer Brown

Literally the best place I have ever been in my entire life ever

Peter

Lots of fun staff very easy going and cold beer!!

Ana Sabo

Not a great experience. The only time I went bowling and left with greasy black hands. Service was slow and the place was unclean. Wouldn't recommend.

Margaret Batten

Just had a 4yr olds birthday here. Great experience! Signing up both of our boys to their bowling league.

Larhyssa Kruger

Such a fun atmosphere and reasonably priced!

Dylan Bier

Have been coming here for years. Decently priced. Lanes are in decent condition. Some things are a little "dated" but overall a decent experience usually. Why the 4 stars? The smell. Not only the mens bathroom but the lane areas aswell. Defentily something not right.

Arrol Bernard

Great place to bowl. Good price. Best 5 pin bowling in town!

Jayde Gravel

The bowling itself was fine, service was standard and the worker tried to accommodate our needs. But was disappointed to see that their idea of being wheelchair accessible was affixing a couple ramshackle ramps on the stairs. This left out some people in our group which was very disappointing for them. There is some very uneven sidewalk in front of the building as well making it very tricky for those with mobility needs to get in and out of the building. Also disappointed as the building was called beforehand and the group was told that the building would be accessible. Please DO NOT tell people the building is accessible. Just an FYI with those with mobility needs- this may not be the place for you to attend: -Stairs to get down to the bowling area -Ledges to get up onto the alley -Uneven sidewalk entering building -Ramps provided are STEEP and unsafe

Chris Woodward

Such a fun place! Prices are decent music is good. Shoes are new. When you want to do something different, give this place a try! Btw my high score is 179!

Darood Sandstrom

Taking a couple stars away, as I enjoy bowling here, BUT the washrooms STINK. Especially the downstairs, they don't keep up with these like they should.

Darren Forchuk

Good price and fun place

Jon Dorian

Rolling, Rolling, rolling

Dayle Wilson

Cole Deitz (Fake_Pandas)

You all like bowling. Just don't bring your cousin Roman.

Ryan Kliciak

Friday night glow bowling. Place gets fairly busy.

Michael Smith

They have glow-in-the-dark bowling upstairs! The guy that was working was really friendly and helpful! It was a lot of fun!

Michael Tchir

Fun.

Mister bungle Bungler

Good grungy vintage bowling alley feel

Glad

Nice place!

Rana Asfour

it was fun

Janine Sweitzer

Terrible service. We had lanes 7&8 which are connected, and the balls were constantly getting jammed, and since they are way understaffed, we spent a large majority of our hour waiting on balls. We didn't get to finish one game in our hour time slot. Staff weren't apologetic, they blamed it on the fact that they were busy, etc. We weren't the only ones complaining, either. There were quite a few other unhappy customers, and really- if the staff were better with their customer service, this place has the potential to be great, but sadly, this isn't the case. We won't be back.

Cory Thorn

It's a dated alley in need of some updating, but the pizza was shockingly good, way better than most bowling alley pizza.

VMC

It's a nice place to bring your friends and family and enjoy bowling. Would be really nice if there's more choices for food tho.

Aaron Benoit

Fun place adult bevys make it best

Chris K

Very outdated. The monitor was glitching out and sometimes the pins were missing. Thankfully the game was free.

Cj Everson

Pretty tight space, a guy was drinking next to us yelling at his children and they have old shoes that hurt my feet but second pair wasn't bad. Also kept running out of balls I had to ask someone playing in the next lane for some of theirs.

smith joe

5 pin bowling in the basement. Had fun with friends. Kinda divey

Jimnat Schneider

Staff is good, lanes are good but the balls are in very poor condition.

Ida S

2nd time going, had fun! Staff were always friendly and attentive! They are working hard, clean establishment! Music was good, have not tried the food yet. Definitely will be going back!

Leanne Dumas

They are doing a great job with Covid protocols!

Carl Boon

Great place and people. Haven't bowled in years. Felt really welcome.

Glenda Hamilton

Had a great time with my grandson

Sandy McDonald

Fun time

Neil Papke

I'm on a league for Sunday night there. I must say there are some issues with the pins, lanes & the general condition of the place, it's old & in need of upgrades to keep up with the maintenance. Bowling is fun, & can be frustrating at times tring to maintain your average. Just tonight 4 of the lanes were closed cause they weren't working properly.

Melissa Pritchard

Lanes weren't working properly. And management didn't care. Friends we're talked into paying more money than we needed to.

Nonah Yousef

????????????

Paul Hibbert

It's fun

Greg Walsh

I love bowling and crushing beers

It was ok. Not enough ramps for younger kids. A little pricey for a single mom taking out kids for family fun. Staff was friendly

Katarina Penfold

Staff Christmas party turned out to be fantastic and a great venue for this event

George Jetson

fun place to go bowl

Aura Esmeralda Torres-Magana

Great for the little ones, but if you are looking for an upbeat bowling experience, I would look elsewhere.

Sandy Davey

Good place good people

Mason Huffman

As someone who does regular league bowling I found the lanes sub par, but for just a fun outing its definately a bowling alley!

Trecito Gansan

Fun game....
