Joseph Flury

Charged us 3 dollars for water in a plastic cup. Wouldn't help us with a stuck ball in the gutter before we even started.

Baby P

Jerry Rogacki

website said they have lottery went there and no lottery there good place to go if you like to bowl that's about it

Sandie Snyder

Place is usually clean and not too bad a shot on the lanes.

Mason Mest

Very very rude employees, bad pool table,very over priced,and very unwilling to help.

casey robertson

Cool place to hangout and bowl

Ryan Bradley

It's not a bad place to bowl, the price is higher than other lanes and the food/beverages have a decent selection. However, avoid the pro shop. Especially if you're new to bowling. He's just there to sell anything and caught him sleeping a few times when I had a question about the ball he sold me. Never again.

Ronda James

Friendly customer service and we had a good time

Robert Hasselbeck

Good atmosphere inside. The staff was very friendly. Cost per game was expensive.

Thomas Woods

Friendly staff, easy-to-use scoring computer, and clean facility.

Jen Cruttenden

Their pizza is surprisingly delicious

Sarah Nichole

Loved bowling here in the 2021 NYS Queens tournament. The place was clean, the lanes were taken care of, the overall layout was very nice. Highly recommend if you are looking for a nice place to bowl!

Tristine schmidt

Expensive

Cameron Moore

The Prices are high (for pro shop as well) and the lanes are not good. Food is good and nice relaxing lounge. Rather go anywhere else but not bad if your bowling for fun

Angela Martin

Groupon coupons are great! Staff is friendly. Place is old but clean

Carl mcclure

not really a play you go to hang out. they only want you bowling, not eating or playing other games. not child friendly and no diversity in the staff. food is bland prices are spicey. you could have done so much at another bowling lane with better food

Hunter Irwin

The bowling alley is fun, but the pro shop was the greatest. The man in there is full of wisdom to help all bowlers

Edward Popp

Great lanes for all types of fun, drinks and games are a little pricey but fun nevertheless. The food takes a while to come out but is good enough to justify the wait.

Karen W

So much fun!!

Nicholas Fuller

Place is very nice and clean, lack of affordable snacks and the prices have gone through the roof.

Splurgoth

Very friendly and helpful staff. They loose a star because their food prices are overly expensive. My kids just finished a Summer league there, and I'm signing them up for a Fall league. So if using their services is any measure of how I feel about them, I'm happy.

Steve Olender

Pricey, but fun. Staff is helpful and friendly.

Daniel J. Meyer

Packed

I went bowling with my friends. I was bowling then it shut off. I went up to counter to find out why. I did the 12.44 for unlimited bowling. When you hear unlimited bowling you think unlimited for after 8 or the time on the poster. Heck no it means 3 hours at this dump. I was furious so i told them it said on poster unlimited. The manger then said it always been 3 hours. I would not be giving this a review if i known it was 3 hours. I would have known what i was getting into so there is no need to be mad. I was just mad the poster in the middle of the darn lanes said unlimited without saying for 3 hours. I thought it was in the small print. I was wrong it did not even say it there. So if you want to go to a place that lies to their customers then go here to bowl. If not I recommend going to any other lanes then amf. I know it was not the employees fault so sorry on that. I was just mad that there were no way to know that. I asked my friends and the manager did not told them either. So to end this review out shame on AMF. Also shame on the manager for not let anyone know. Lastly shame on the higher ups for creating a scummy rule in the first place.

Elaine Ladd

Was a little more expensive than I anticipated and not much else to do since we couldn't get quarters for the little arcade games they had.

Ethan Karalus

Bowling is always a fun way to spend a few hours. This AMF location is a reasonable stop for anyone who'd like to bowl. Lanes, tables, and seats are all perfectly clean, especially when compared to other bowling alleys. There are plenty when it comes to the selection of balls if you do not bring your own, and the rental shoes seem clean and sanitary. The only reason it gets 4 stars, is because of the prices. The food, and the bowing itself is WAY overpriced for what you get. I understand that they need to maintain the facility and turn over some profit, but do you REALLY need to charge $6.50 per game per person? There can't be THAT much oil on those lanes. But don't let my rant discourage you from going, as the 'late-night' bolwing they do is both fun, and significantly cheaper. Overall, it's a fun time, but unfortunately, this fun does come at a price.

Donna Duchene

Helpful staff, fun place

Julie Campanella

We love it here! Have been to many AMFs in the area and they are by far the best one! Staff is great. My fiance and I bowl here often.

amanda eppolito

Clean bathrooms. Friendly staff.

Aaron Bourke

Went for a 7 yr old birthday party. Observing the interaction between the staff/management and the mother of the 7yr old, they were great. Very accommodating and helpful. For a bowling alley the food was pretty good, bbq wings, fries, moz stick and pizza. I didn't get a chance to partake but the bar had a great selection of games, a couple of pool tables, darts, video poker, and sand shuffleboard (haven't seen that since 6th grade at my local community center)

Shawn Janas

Good lanes with modern controls, reasonable bar prices and organized bowling balls by weight

MATTHEW BARCOMB

Love going there though I can't play much anymore due to health issues still like to try and throw the ball down the lane and the people that work there are very nice.

Eileen Lorenz

Nice bowling alley. New shoes. Floors in good shape. Nice Bar area

Sandra Halik

Bowling is good. Good and drinks are expensive and mediocre.

Brian Bookmiller

They have upgraded the actual lanes and boards which is nice...But drink prices are worse than downtown..Food menu reduced to nothing...

Teresa Melonson

Have many house bowling balls for kids to use. Decent lanes. Full service bar has extremely high prices.

David Macholz

Had to wait a while to get a lane as it's first come first serve so I suggest getting there early for Saturday night bowling, but the staff was pretty awesome!

Daniel Krzywick

Ok service and may run into either a mechanical issue or bad food or bad service if anyone is at the counter upon arriving. They open too late to plan a birthday party.

Chad Lancewicz

Had my daughter's birthday party there. They were amazing. Far above what we were expecting from a bowling alley.

Sarah Young

Love it!

Sarah Kinseher

I know they have done a lot of fixing up of the place, but I really wish they would take care of the nasty ceiling.

Matt

This is one of my favorite bowling alleys in the area. I've always had a good experience here.

Jenn Moore

They are well priced for moonlight bowling

Jordan Gaiser

Nice bowling alley

Claudia Hill

Jim Reese is a great Pro man! Really helped us out! Thanks Again Jim!

Sean Gibbons

Had a great outing with coworkers for a good cause. They were great.

Jennifer Barczykowski

Fun place to bowl

Kristen Herr

Nice time but not for the money. Lanes were fine and we had a nice time but bathrooms were very cold, dirty and smelled of urine (girls bathroom). Seems like alot of money for some fun time out of the house, especially if the facilities make you cringe.

Michael Robinson

My kids and I had a great time. The staff was friendly and helpful!

Dave Kirsch

Nice house. Lots of room. Alleys are in great shape.

Bogdan

Great place to bowl, play pool, and relax on a weekend night. Open atmosphere and many lanes to chose from over 30! Plenty of food choices and drink specials. Lot's of discounts and coupons available for the week. Excellent atmosphere to spend time with family or with a league.

Ariel Erlijman

Great place to go bowling. Recommended

Alan Zawadzki

Fun times bowling. Had to get my ball redrilled for my fingers and only took 20 min!

John Caligiuri

They provided a great kids birthday party. Everyone had a great time.

Yon Bochinkusweskoloff

My favorite lanes!

L Moon

Rug by thr lane was sticky and ruined my friends bowling shoes. The prices for a bud light beer is 4.50 which I find rediculous for a bowling alley especially if you are in a leauge. I went to buy one of those warm pretzels and they were over $5 each and looked they there were sitting there for a while. Their food menu is just expensive small quantity fried foods. Close to home, but if you want good food, cheaper drinks and a clean place to bowl go to Transit lanes!

Homemadevideo1

Great place for bowling

PAUL INDELICATO

Clean. Covid precautions in place. Good fun afternoon.

Kim Morse

Had fun here. The guy at the desk was really nice, and helpful. Wish I knew his name so I could compliment him here! :) will hopefully be coming back!!

Andrea Seeloff

Always love bowling with friends here

Username Unavailable

Great place to enjoy a night out. Friendly and helpful staff in a safe, clean environment. Just stay away from lane 18 as it breaks down quite a bit.

Melanie Hidy

Worst business I've ever seen. Don't come here at all costs! MARY at the front counter rudely stopped me and my boyfriend on the way to a birthday party to tell us we can't bring in our unopened water bottle. When we addressed to the manager he didn't care or show any concern. Charged us $15 for one person to bowl for 2 hours and yet we had less than an hour to actually play. $5 a piece for shoe rental so I just ended up refunding it and not bowling. My boyfriend paid $5 for the shoes and then the game timed out after 5 frames. They didnt allow us to continue playing the game everyone paid AN ARM AND A LEG FOR. Save your time and money and go somewhere the employees understand CUSTOMER SERVICE and don't charge you up the @$$ to bowl. Worst business I've ever seen.

Metch

Nice bowling alley to chill

Linda J

My daughter and her friend had a blast! Great deal through Groupon. The only downside was the price of a pop!

Mark Willert

Lanes were in condition as were the shoes we rented. Bowling shirt is getting expensive!

Stacy Doyle

I had fun bowling n I decided to order snacks after bowling.

Ryan Vargo

Madison Weiner

Everything here was of great quality and was so clean! What a great experience. The team here was SO accommodating to my unified bowling team and our unexpectedly early arrival. I have nothing but good things to say!!! ????????

Jamie

Bowling is fine but it's a bit pricy

Hudson Dake

Cool

oof oof

The food was good quality and served in a timely manner. The allys were in good condition and had no breakdowns. The personnel treated my guests well. The only hitch was that we brought a few chips and popcorn items, which they wouldn't allow us to use. This was unexpected. Other than that, it went very well..

duuell

Wicked alley! Sick place! Fun time! That's all you need to know

Ian Buchalski

I didn't bowl but it seemed like a good place to do so.

Best bowling alley in town. They've put some money into upgrades and everything looks great. The Gatorades are touch pricey though....

Len Dobucki

Great

mary Lou Miller

The lanes are always in good working order!!

Taylor Doom

We are extremely impressed by our experiences here at AMF Lancaster Lanes. Being competitive bowlers we have traveled to many lanes and the manager Sheila is in a league of her own. She provided a great experience and terrific service, even though it was incredibly busy she was extremely accommodating.

James Whalen

Very friendly staff

pocbass b

Well maintained. Too expensive.

Samantha Rollison

Great family fun....Great prices!!!

Patti Clark

Very expensive.!!!!!! Only played one game. The food was as expensive as the games. The pizza is way better made at home. …

N Smith

New everything! Very nice, but did run out of some food items..?

Rob Adamberg

Ally shoes were scuffed and well worn out. And the games were $5.80 a piece. A friend and myself played 3 games each, and we had 2 pitchers of beer. Our total came to $68.50 which is outrageously, overpriced!

Christine Labby

Lanes are nice food is great. Staff is very friendly and professional.

Deborah Wesolek

Very pricey and attendant not friendly at all

Jeff Wilkins

Nice bowling alley. Hardware is pretty up to date. We as a family are casual bowlers, but we have a lot of fun here. Food is a little pricey but pretty good.

Brian Keitz

Very nice

Steven Michalski

Havent been here in 25 years. Think i will wait another 25 before going back. Bartender was the only bright spot.

Korie Maund

We've visited a few times for moonlight bowling, and have always had a great experience overall. The last time we visited, was the first time we ordered food, and we were very disappointed. We ordered the large chicken wings which is (10), there were expensive, but more importantly, they were absolutely disgusting. They were not normal chicken wings; they had some type of thick breading on them (think KFC). This was not advertised on their menu, and they made no mention of it at the time of our order. We ended up throwing them all in the garbage after tasting them. If this was something that was advertised correctly, we would have ordered something different. We also ordered a large fry and soft pretzel with a side of cheese; both were normal, no issues. We'd love to get a refund or gift certificate for the value of the wings to use on something else during our next bowling trip.

Jeremy Butts

Covid needs to end

Patrick D

Maybe a little pricey, but for a clean alley, 36 well maintained lanes, you can't beat Lancaster Lanes

RL haungs

Great place for new year's Eve with the family! Very helpful and friendly people and very clean too!

William Thourling

Great place to have FUN!!!

Joseph Doxbeck

Bowling good need drink specials

Mike Yesis

Nice place but very expensive. Yet again all your AMF Centers are expensive

Aiman Binmadshall

Great place Why are you guys closed on sunday though?

Rohan Edwards

Nice bowling spot

sean refermat

great atomosphere as a patron and an employee

Ty Haak

Had a great time midnight bowling with some friends. Started at 8 which was nice, and the price was only 18 dollars including shoes for 3 hours of unlimited games and the beer wasn't too expensive either

Mariah Rice

Been there 2 times and in short terms, very unwelcoming. Beer was watered down. Will never go back. look out for the bald ones.

brian martin

Always polite and accommodating. Clean. And clean bathrooms. Great for families.

Jack

Not bad. There is a small video game room if you're not into bowling with the rest of the party. Food and drinks available.

H3Al pickle

Loved the place

Daniel Warren

Place was clean, a lot of lanes. Somehow we played 1 game, 3 adults with 2 small children and it was $58 with shoe rental, which seems quite high. Price was my only complaint.

Ray Lotz

Love bowling there. Friendly staff treats you well

Jillian Merriam

A blast for kids of all ages, including the big kids like me! We love the summer passes that we've gotten each year. It's a great deal for 3 games plus shoe rental. Otherwise, bowling can be quite expensive. The kids love a good competition and they get to expel energy, especially on rainy days when normally they would be stuck indoors.

greg reggie

Way overpriced.

Wendy Gee

My son bowls in a league here. Bowling is great for all ages, it’s hard to find something that the whole family can enjoy together. The staff, go out of their way to make sure you have a good time.

Ric Michalski

Too expensive per game.

James Pfeiffer

Shot sucks, beer is way overpriced

Quann J

good service is bad

Alizabeth Dobiesz

It was a fun time. But extremely over priced. I would not go there again because the prices were ridiculous.

Michael King

Fun!

Juan Rodriguez

Had a great time and the hostess was very inviting and very nice to my children help us pick out the right size shoes even gave us Lanes away from everyone so we could enjoy ourselves with the kids I like the atmosphere of the lights were down in a neon lights were on it was a great place to go

Jess Wruck

Always a good time, the staff are very kind while the food is delicious.

Ryan Fisher

Our lanes turned off and the guy at the desk was very nasty

Lauren Cook

The best AMF in the area that I have been to. Very clean and organized. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Jennifer Fuer

My Girl Scout service unit had a bowling event there today. They were phenomenal and I had a ton of compliments on how well run it was. I did nothing but give Sheila names and troop numbers and she had them all set up on lanes. All I had to do when they got there was tell them what lane their troop was assigned to. She brought the pizza slices to each lane so the girls didn’t need to stand and wait. Our troops definitely want to go back!

Andrew Bucholtz

Awesome place to bowl and service and managers I wonderful

Rebecca Krakowiak

We go for the deals. Tuesday night, $2 games,etc. Frustrating sometimes because leagues have first dibs. May not have open lanes until late night, even if the deal starts at 8. Seems like they're doing some updating which will be nice.

lucas zappia

Clean..not much decor... almost no signage..place looks like it could close in a moment's notice. Was busy after 9...

Mike Borrello

Lanes were clean, restrooms clean as well. Large bar area with pool tables. Food was overpriced, and bowling was a little expensive but not too bad. Overall a decent place.

Michael reukauf

New lanes oil moves quick. Food and drinks are ridiculously over priced. Good place for moonlight bowling.... New discovery inconvenient, still disappointing. We tried to get a leauge @ Transit Lanes (close to home). Do all Amf facilities suck?

Steve Gane 3rd

Very CLEAN friendly Staff!

Fanny Murdock

The price is highway robbery.

eric leach

Chris Davis

A little expensive but overall a good time. Gave it a three because of price. Food was great

Thomas Szwed

Have a Christmas Eve tradition of bowling, tried here.....first words greeted with was 'Can bring your own coffee in'....we'll NEVER go back!

Justin Bunda

Good atmosphere and friendly staff. The bar was well-stocked and the drinks were well-made.

Jeremy Marini

Grew up bowling here, very friendly staff

David Griffith

Very nice bowling alley. Friendly staff. Good food and beverages. Well maintained alleys.

valerie pankiewicz

Friendly staff. Lanes are always in tip top shape and great to bowl on! Jim Reese Pro shop on the other hand is a hot mess.. very unorganized and Jim Reese has about zero personality and isn't helpful at all!!
