Reviews of Patel's Kingston Lanes (Bowling Alley)

Fazeela Khan

Very nice family friendly place. I like that its clean and the restroom as well. I definitely recommend anyone to go here.

Chris Brennan

Really nice, lots to do, not to expensive.

Maggie D

Fun

Jenn Lane

Had a great time here, it was a blast. A great place to take the family

Benjamin Pinsky

Great bowling alley. The lanes, machines and arcade are all updated. Drinks at the bar are cheap and they have a lot of beers on tap. The bar is cash only but the billowing alley accepts credit cards.

Karen Hance

Nice place and friendly staff, but games are $4.50 each and they have a minimum of $5 to use a credit card, this being against the law if you accept MC and Visa there can be no minimum charges. They do not have much seating and there is no ball cleaning machine. The pro shop doesn't even clean balls. Very disappointed, as my son is bowling in a tournament here and they do not even discount finalists. This is the most expensive bowling alley I've ever been to.

Christine Russomanno

Great family fun

peggy slater

It's a great place to have a lot of fun with the family or bowling in a league

Sandip Mehra

Clean, nice great fun, amazing value in the arcade, kids loved it.. If you enjoy bowling this is a great place to go too..

Gian Starr

Bowling was good. Place was clean. Arcade leaves a bit to be desired.

mason dent

FUN! Lots of lanes, good prices and yummy bowling alley food.

Michael Daubman

Arbitrary and inconsistant enforcement of rules is frustrating. Group of 8 and 9 year olds using ramps and not throwing balls...can't use bumpers. Next time we're there... bumpers for teens. Management was rude and dismissive vs try to work with the party group of mozed kids to make it work. There are better places to go. Should mention a party of mixed ages and special needs. Rules are good. Inconsistent enforcement and unwillingness to talk through special case is not. Rudeness always unacceptable.

Katie Runnells

I basically spent $50 on food, drinks, the broken arcade and one game to get heckled by the owners child about how horrible I am at bowling, dude owns a business and can't afford a babysitter. What a joke.

Tomas E. Valines Rosabal

Great place.

Kenny

Great place to go bowling and get your bowl drilled and to buy balls and asesories the gentleman in the pro shop is great and knows what he is doing he fixed my ball and am bringing another one for him to drill for me

mink

Great family fun!

Jonathan Barney

My son loves bowling and we go here all the time. Staff is super friendly and treats my son great and helps us out constantly.

lui- g

Feels sticky when you walk inside.

Darryl Clark

I took a camping trip to the lanes to play. Even though they knew 200 people were coming they didn’t open their concessions stand. You could only get things from the vending machines. No hot food or sandwiches. Other than that all else was good. The kids had a Ball.

Elliot Wilser

We had some issues with the lanes, and the people were not the peasant.

david oahyon

not sure

Benjamin Healey

Good family fun. Prices are reasonable.

Nigal Gahtham

Great bowling and always full of people cause it's popular

Tom Morgan

A good modern facility that puts down a high scoring house shot. Clean and well maintained, the best place to bowl in Ulster county.

Mary Lee

The best place to hold a kids birthday party! My kids love laser tag!

Kevin c

Great fun with the kids

Carlos Osorio

Awesome. Modern and comfortable. 2 thumbs UP!

NY HUNTERGUY

All though I'm not from there I travel a fair amount to different Bowling Centers and it is always nice to go to a center that is clean and well run , when arriving don't be fooled by it's rough looking exterior because when you walk in it's a whole new world , if you have kids they and you will be impressed with there game room all in all this is a fantastic place and would highly recommend this place from the tournament bowler to the family just looking for a place to have fun

Aaron Bryant

Google has to fix the address to this place on their google map profile. If it is still only showing E Chester St, Kingston, NY 12401, just add 644 to the beginning of this address.644 E Chester St, Kingston, NY 12401

AV Club

Very enjoyable!

Just Gerri

The Real Deal 12401

So we just had daughters 3rd birthday today. It was great my three-year-old and her little friends had A-blast at the bowling alley. From Dan at the desk Booking my party to our party host They were both really nice gentleman. We had our own private Room the only book one party up at a time which made me feel a little bit safer during our new times. All in all it was a really great party and we will be back again. Thank you guys so much for 1st of all let me bring my own juice for the babies. That was even better. Thank you for making amelias baby shark birthday just that much more special. Doo doo doo. I highly recommend them for birthday parties the prices were so reasonable.

Matt DeBenedetto

Tyler Weiss

Patrick “Patty G raps” Gieseler

Very very nice Bowling Center

Lady Mardy

Fun place, clean and easy to find

John Halter

It's fun u got bowling and pool and a bar

Nickie Friedman

Fun night out

Imre Beke

Your average bowling Lane. I prefer the cosmic uv bowling lights off, which they did start with. The employees were helpful when issues came up. The rental process was simple, 6 of us payed 12 dollars each for 2 games in two lanes. What stunk was that there was no way to change the names in the games to set up a bracket system. For a Saturday night, it didn't seem that busy. Overall, not a bad place to blow two hours.

Lori Walter

Kids had a blast at their end of year Wrestling party.

Maddie

A ton of fun as always!!!! Friendly staff, food, drinks, a full arcade, and of course wonderful bowling !!!!

Tim Light

Lanes are nice, equipment is up to date and scoring system is accurate.

Steve Marin

Nice bowling alley. They have cosmic bowling on the weekend, which is neat. Nice bar area and the kids like the arcade.

William Artist

Great time bowling and lazer tag !

Travis MacFarland

My favorite bowling alley, nice and quiet and the music isn't to loud. You can actually enjoy your company

Kimberly Schneider

This is the cleanest bowling alley I have ever been to. It's a very low-key building from the road, but well worth a visit if bowling is your thing.

Alex Ellick

Every single time I come here I am surprised by how rude and dismissive the staff is. It seems like any group larger than four is met with confusion and frustration. Prices change depending on who your asking. The bar has insulation falling from the ceiling; nobody accepts anything but cash; they genuinely don't seem to want new business. Cosmic bowling is really cool but the times and prices change depending on who your talking to. Would be really cool to have a local place like this that wanted people to come.

Mehul Shah

5 stars all around. If you're in the area and looking to play bowling with friends and family. This place offers it at very affordable prices. Large place, so many lines. They sell tasty food and drinks resonable price. Have plenty of parking space. Nicely done for all COVID-19 safety measures. I love this lanes. Recommend to all.

Jake Warner

GREAT PLACE WITH AWSOME CUSOMER SERVICE

Dej Monterrey - Calderón

Sarah Rankin

yousuckcock

Cheap drinks . clean

Mahot12

Great place to have fun

J WaltDuhs

The lanes are way to greasy and the service is subpar the drink machines are over priced and the bathrooms are scary. The balls are chipped and the weight is not right. The food service is really bad.

Vijay Trivedi

A must stop in Kingston for fun loving crowd! Par excellence amenities n great personal attention by the staff! We thank you all for your services we enjoyed yesterday on our way to Rail Explorer, Catskills, NY

Chris Kivi

Here for a tournament, it's got nice lanes, open feel. Seating area is a little non existent outside the lane area. Bathrooms could use an upgrade, but the people are nice if that counts.

Abhinav Kapur

good time with the kids

Nolan Palmer-Smith

Had a great time with the kids. Easy atmosphere with arcade games, bumper lanes and affordable beer. All in all a great way to spend a hot summer day

Mckenzie Bishop

Great place to bowl, affordable and quiet. Great place to bring kids. Only kids under 12 can use the bumpers though, so it's time to up your game!

Diana Valek

Staff is extremely helpful. Prices are reasonable. I would recommend this bowling alley to others.

David Kwak

Good fun times. Food was good too.

Tara Montgomery

The girl behind the counter was rude and when I asked to speak to the manager she got an attitude.

Daniel Edwards

Support Animal Friendly

Samuel Williams

I have no complaints about this place. Which is rare for me.

Will “Billaylalaylalay” Bruce

Bowling here is so much fun. The new owners really stepped up the atmosphere with rennovations to the bar and restrooms. Family friendly place where you can have a beer and relax with friends. Bar has good beers. Cosmic bowling on weekends. Great place

Scott Craig

Had fun and it was my only time there. But, unlike many bowling alleys there wasn't any music. While the snack bar smelled great, I never saw a menu of options, so I didn't get anything to eat. I also had a hard time finding bowling balls with the larger finger holes that I need. Plenty of lanes open. Lots of parking available. I'd go back again, but it's not 5 stars at this time.

Cliff Whitaker

Fun bowling

Braydon

Always friendly staff and available lanes and amazing Leagues.

Matt Kehoe

Better arcade than the mall

roo Moura

Kinda cheap and pretty good facility

David K. Bondarenka

Best (only) lanes in town! Beer is cheap too!

Tiffany Adams

Great place to bowl, friendly service and really good food :)

Edwin vargas

It's a fun place to be at. Bowling is always fun but this place makes it way better. It's perfect. Not alot of people in this place. The arcade is also fun too. Low prices. In the arcade there are deal such as, if you purchase 50 credits you earn 10 for free. It's a fun place to take kids and it is wheelchair accessibility. The staff is friendly as well as the food. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Ace Austin

Looks a little rundown outside, but is classic inside... someone fund this place to bring it up to a better look

Tim Dittfield

Very nice bowling alley.

Erica Ruger

So much do. Always a fun time. Great Family fun

George Wells III

Clean friendly environment. All NYS/CDC Covid guidelines followed. Masks mandatory. Sanitized balls wrapped for are protection. Many hand sanitizing areas. Clean bathrooms. Overall a safe and fun adventure for you and your family as long as you follow all social distancing guidelines.

Joe Forte

Came for a party, was a very good deal, Lazer tag was a blast. Pizza could have been served hot though. But otherwise a great time!

Frank Brunetto

Excellent fun for family or just yourself, very clean and staff was super helpful with sizing and getting shoes, very polite. Snack bar was not open when I arrived at 12:30p , Patel’s opens at 12p. Played 3 games with rental of shoes $13.

Samantha Harris

Place needs some updates, the arcade is okay but the prizes are a bit lacking. The kids love it though. There's not much in Kingston, so compared to other things you can do in this area this place is tops. However it doesn't stand up well against newer bowling alleys and arcades. If you're looking for something fancy and modern you'll be disappointed. However if you are just looking for a place to hang out or some simple family fun time you've got it right here.

Charles Phillips Sr

Clean and nice game room good snack bar most of all friendly people

steve stanton

Good place to have a birthday party.

Harrison Kessler

I really enjoyed playing here. It's very nice and has been updated recently. Not expensive either.

Matt S

Good lane conditions, great arcade, best $2 bowling socks. Only complaint is the seating on each lane is a bit awkward. Would rather have the classic bench style seating.

Perl Me

Amazing! Full room of fun arcades! Lots of bowling lanes always one available! Well priced! I spent 3 hours there on a rainy day!

Shannon Wittman

Had a great time with friends. We didn't wait long on line and the place was busy.

Kristi Person

Good deal Tues. 3 games and shoes $12. Haven't been for years. The system is updated and I must say they have a really good ball selection.

Martin Hancock

My family had a blast. Good Prices. Good Customer Service.

Kelly Edwards

Bruce Hansen

On 3/16/21.at approximately 12:20 pm I finished league bowling with the Kingston senior league.I than approached the counter and asked for a lane to practice on. I was told I would not be able to bowl till 1 pm. When I came back at 1:10 pm I observed 3 people bowling, one of them was bowling against me during league play. When I asked why the different rules, the employee lied and said they got done a lot latter than I did when in fact I bowled against the team earlier and we finished at the same time.The other 2 bowlers were non league bowlers.They also started at 12:30.If the counter person would have told me 12:30 I would have waited.I don't appreciate being lied to or him trying to deceive me.THAT'S NO WAY TO TREAT A SENIOR!

Andrew W

Place was clean, ran efficiently so they had enough staff. First time bowling in years like almost a decade so the interface to type in the bowlers names was nice and easy, plenty of balls to choose from. I would definitely go again if not for the bowling for the Lazer tag.

Corrine Ellish

Patels hosted our son's birthday party. Everything went smoothly. The staff was attentive. The communication was excellent. Everyone had a great time. Thank you!

THOMAS FOSTER

Lots of fun! Interior nice, (looks like it was recently updated).

Anthony Lalli

I'm here for a tournament but the lanes are really nice and looks well maintained and recently updated. They also have cosmic bowling here for fun entertainment. Also they have an arcade room at one end of the bowling alley.

Terri Jornov

Great place for a fun family night out. The place is modern and very clean

jon hendrix

Horrible experience. Took my girlfriend and her 10 year old son here on mother's day. Trying to enjoy ourselves and have a great time. Both my girl and her son have never bowled before. The girl at the counter refused to let them use bumpers because the kid wasn't "8 or younger" So instead they got to bowl gutter balls for 3 games straight and struggle to score above 30-40. Just ridiculous considering the fact we gave this business 45 dollars to have a GOOD TIME. Why would u not want your customers to enjoy themselves?? Come on PATEL

Wesley Thorne

Fun place,

What a face-lift this alley has undergone in the last few years! Not the same alley I went to as a high-school kid ....let's just say.. several years ago. Clean, great arcade and even laser tag. Excellent for parties or just a game of pool at the bar. My kids love coming here

Chris M

The lanes are good but the people who work behind the counter can be real jerks..

Mary Quin Roller

I dropped my kid off with some of her friends, and the snack bar was closed (I did not know this). My kid and her friends ordered pizza when they were hungry. There is a "no outside food allowed" rule, but they were very hungry and didn't have any way to get to a resturant besides walking. My child said that they forgot about the rule when ordering the pizza. They weren't allowed to come inside with the pizza because it was outside food. They sat down on the ground in the parking lot. Also, the workers barely even let the kids throw out the pizza box inside (supposably). They were basically kicked out when they came inside with the pizza box. I believe they should have let them eat inside since the snack bar was closed. I wish my kid called and told me what was happening.

Arthur Sheeley

Decent prices for family bowling, however you have to pay a dollar a song at the jukebox otherwise you're bowling in silence.

Sarah Brooker

Fun place to bowl. Updated look. Great food served by friendly people.

Jim Perkins
