Reviews of Lakeview Bowl (Bowling Alley)

Nick E

Dark. Uncomfortably so. Wooden lanes, absolutely zero backend. 5.50 a game is a bit expensive

Lakeview bowl is a great place to bring your family for a nice day out. It has clean music, disco balls and a place to get food. Which in case you're wondering is overpriced just like any other public eating area. Lakeview bowl doesn't offer anything special but doesn't do anything wrong and that's why it gets 4/5 stars.

Seth Hannah

Lovely staff, and cheap to bowl! I played 5 pin, but about 1 in 10 resets one of the pins would fall down without anyone touching it. It was frustrating, but other than that my experience was amazing! Strongly recommend it if you're not too serious about bowling!

Ian Evans (TBB)

Good setup

Alex TenWesteneind

It's a great time but just make sure you have cash on you for the bar. Also the bar has limited liquor options. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They have no issue using their debit machine to give cashback. But seriously... get a debit machine or at least an ATM. Cosmic bowl is a lot of fun and the place is clean.

Michelle O'Connor

Very busy, fun family environment!

Joerg W

Nice place , good food , I bowl every Tuesday here with our league.

Lawrence Haddlesey

Great family fun

Taryn Grieder

Fun time, lots of lanes that dont malfunction too excessively, the food actually isnt bad either

Sean McComb

Best bowling place on this side of Kingston! Very affordable, 10 pin and 5. Try 10 if u haven't!

Tim Hynd

Used to be in leagues here, and it was fantastic! Still love stopping by to play some games every now and then. Staff are friendly, 'Rock and Bowl' time in the evening is a fun twist. Be sure to wear white if you go for 5 pin after 7pm!

Good bowling alley, everything seemed very clean. Straightforward, there wasn't anything that really stuck out, good or bad. Just a good place to bowl!

Birthday party fun!

Shey 007

Great place to take the kids week nights or on the weekends. My son enjoys bowling there. Awesome for adults too; great atmosphere. For any kind of day/weather.

Lots of fun

fink einhorn

Old but good

Jeremy Pajot

Very nice bowling alley.

Jonathan Poole

Awful. Lanes all broken. Staff seem upset that customers had the nerve to visit and pay them for poor quality lanes and service. Do not recommend.

Jason Chesebrough

10 pin madness in a clean, well kept alley with a friendly staff and some retro decor to boot. There's a massive 5 pin section for the wee ones, luckily mine have grown to hold a 10 pin ball (and they love the game so much more). Decent bar to grab some bevvies while you play, good tunes and an overall well stocked pro shop.

Jim Young

Super friendly staff and lots of fun.

Pete Clark

Been bowling here for several years. Very nice facility. The staff are excellent.

Shaun Hawkrigg

A great experience from start to finish! Excellent customer service and friendly staff.

Tracy Ford

I havent been in a while but always enjoyed going

Candace Wells

Lots of fun. Clean and great staff. Only complaint was the AC wasn't working in the 5 pin bowling area so it got quite warm.

Justin Shaw

Great hangout spot for bowling and pool. $12 per person/per game for 10 pin which includes shoes. $2 per game for pool, with good quality tables. Pool/Bar area recently renovated, which is much more open now, with restaurant style booths.

Miaandu

Really fun and you can bowl in the dark!!!

Anna Ferguson

Owners and staff are very friendly and helpful.

Florance Ekman

Love the way the bowling made change

Amy Schroter

This is a classic alley with all the right vintage touches. From the food to the pool tables to the glow lights, bring your polyester and a sharp moustache. This is great fun for the family, friends, co-workers! 2 games was only 11 dollars …

Lee Townson

Great place. Prices are good.

Connor

Caleb Hunt

Classic bowling alley vibe; it's almost like stepping into a time machine but that's what makes these places so fun. Strikes & gutters, man.

A.E.N. All Everything Now

Awesome place to bowl. Wonderful staff. I especially have an amazing time when a member of the staff.. his name is Nathan.. I think. He is so encouraging to new players. Makes it so much more fun, even if you suck lol

DreaminMachine

I placed two games here yesterday with my cousins and I found this facility to be overall good. A strong vintage vibe and fair staff. There's a lack of front desk attendants for some reason, but the pricing is good. For something like nachos, its a bit iffy with price, but alright.

Ryan Wakelim

Always a good time, place is like a time machine!

Diane Corrigan

HARACK REACTS

Great place to bowl good prices and facility

Great quiet place to get your bowling fix

Gina Constantini

I was there for a childs birthday party today. None of the staff was smiling and all looked annoyed to be there.

Warren Lepp

I always have tons of fun

Robert Krueger

We Love it at Lakeview.....It is almost our second home!!! With having a special needs child they are always ready to help...Shawn is always very helpful and tend to go when he is there. It is also very good that they open on some holidays so there is at least something to do on boring days

Jake

I'm not much of a bowler so it's difficult for me to rate this accurately. The place looks a bit stuck in the 70's. Poor lighting and an awkward food bar in the middle. It has two- rooms. One for 5 pin and one for 10. The 5 pin bowling is really basic and kind of gross to be around. The 10 pin area is much nicer. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but other than that there's not much that was outstandingly positive. It is also sad to note that there's no wheelchair access, as you climb two flights of stairs to get up.

Imthiaz Ahamed

Great atmosphere. Good for family and friends!

Ed Morrison

Best burger ever! Or no.... Those were chicken wings.

Jessica Hoflick

A great bowling venue. I only wish they would renovate the bathrooms. Other that that would be 5 stars. It's a great place for kids to bowl as they have bilumper bowling on the 5 pin lanes and bowl assostors for the really little ones

Greg Parris

Reasonable prices

As a handicap person, it can be quite difficult to get inside. Once inside its fine. As long as you can do stairs you will be fine though. I suppose not a lot of handicapped bowlers though, lol. I usually walk the stairs slowly and just use …

A great place for family parties

Judy Edwards

dont ever leave a good pair of boots in the coat area. We were 10 pin bowling on Friday night and when I went to get my coat and leather winter boots, the boots were not there. The group that left before us, and only one group , obviously liked my boots better than the ones that they left behind or it was an honest mistake and picked up the wrong boots which are similar but newer and more modern style. The management said they know the group and would contact them. They have apparently left messages on FB but have not spoken to these people. I feel that management is very negligent in not asking the group to come in and look at the boots that were left in place of mine. Very costly night of bowling !!!!!!!!!!!

Visited for the first time the other day. Myself, wife and 2 boys aged 3 and 6. We had some snacks, bowled 5 pin and had a great time. Will definitely be going back again.

Isaque Coelho

Kinda dirty, but decent prices, and it's bowling. They only have two pool tables which is kind of lame. Went there the other day to play foosball but couldn't because some people were playing pool (in a league apparently). Can't complain really if you just want to bowl.

Jennifer Head

My family goes here every March break. We’re never disappointed. This year we went twice in 24 hours. The staff are awesome. Polite and very accommodating. One family member suffers from a seizure condition and the staff were great about …

Kids loved it, pretty quiet both times we went, reasonable prices, friendly staff, good quality food, some beers available for the adults; good way to spend an hour or two...in Market Plaza, go up the stairs near the corner...parking lot can be sketchy, lock your vehicle!

Chris Knight

Looking for a good time come to Lakeview Bowl

Michael Peterson

Great place to bring the kids for 5 Pin bowling and for a date night out for the adults. Only problem I had was shoes for a little bit dated.
