4/5, would bowl again.
CHILD HAD FUN, ALMOST PUT A BOWLING BALL IN THE CIELING ????
Great there
Went bowling here with our nieces and nephew and had a blast. They have new shoes from when we went last, casual seating. I also enjoyed the lighting and tvs that are playing the music. We had a very enjoyable time.
You got the glow bowling, the music, food, and drinks. What more could you ask for? Awesome place! Great team members. Have been going here since day 1. My family and all. Definitely will continue on going back.
Fun place to bowl
Fun
We found out that our session to "book 3 lanes for 2 hours" was actually only for 2 games. After 2 games that's it, you're done. This wasn't actually advertised and we all felt like we wasted our money. Go elsewhere!
It was ok. I was booked from 1pm until 2 pm. Showed up early because we were meeting another child there to bowl for my son's birthday. Was there 10 minutes early but explained to the lady at the desk the we were waiting for another little boy. She assured me that the time wouldn't start until we actually started bowling.. the other little guy showed up at 1:05. At 145. It flashed on the screen the the lane was going to automatically turn off in 5 minutes? ? We hadn't been bowling for 45 minutes yet?? I had to go up to the desk and explain to the same lady I spoke with at the beginning that I had paid for an hour but yet the lane was going to shut down way way earlier.. after talking with her she did indeed set the timer to the correct time.. but I just thought it was stupid. . Not a very good first time.
Good staff up to date and following current guidelines for our safety during this pandemic feel safe here
Glow bowling
Nice place, polite staff
Friendly staff, clean facility
Great fun and atmosphere
A great place to bring the family. Really good food too.
Place was friendly, but staff can be a bit ackward.
Nice place
Good for kids and adults. Restaurant serves up good food and is licenced and you can bring your drink to the alley with you. Banquet room downstairs for events like windups and birthday parties as well.
We had fun!
Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and a really non-judgemental environment. Before today I never knew this place even existed, especially given the location, but overall I rate it a 10 out of 10, and I will definitely return. I love the lights, I love the music, and it's just a good time, absolutely.
Super fun, everyone followed mask rules which was nice
Well done
Four of us paid for two hours, but they gave us only two games. Even after asking their manager simply refused to accept that we paid for two hours. It was terrible service and the worst part about it was it was their manager who did that. I use to go there quite often, I will never go back there. I prefer louise location far better than that!
I would prefer louise location far better than that. Their manager took money from four of us for two hours after 11pm and he gave us only two games after asking he just refused to accept that he we paid money for two hours. The worst part about this was that it was their manager himself who did that. We will never go back to that location again. I just wanted my game time and he simply asked for more money! If owners of this location are concerned please contact me. It was so frustrating!
Great place. Good food friendly staff. Excellent service.
Great customer service, clean friendly environment.
Super fun. Went for the Kids Bowl Free and it was great.
Decent facility that has been upgraded over the years. They have black lights and shiny paint as well as light shows and music. Fun for kids of all ages.
Pizza was not well cooked
Friendly and helpful staff. Our lane area (tables, buttons) was sanitized between uses. Music, bowling, fun!
We always go here.
The team at Obrians had a good time here today. Good pizza and drinks too!
Fun atmosphere and friendly staff! Great way to get together with friends and family that's affordable fun.
Hour of bowling and breakfast for 10 bucks ,I upgrade to omelette for a buck, and its really good.
Neon lights with music videos playing in the background while you bowl, this place reminds me of a typical 80s bowling alley so I highly recommend this place.
Very Pleasant and Fun environment... Cassian loves bowling here...
We had some problems with our lane breaking down early on in the night they were able to fix it after a while but was well worth the wait as the staff was great and comped us all a free drink. Over all it was a great time and we plan on going again.
Had a good time, staff were nice in person and in the phone. Nice place to spend time with family!!
Best times being active... definitely be back
Lots of fun and prices were reasonable.
Nice place to go bowling. It has both ten and five pin lanes. The staff seemed very friendly too. It was an all-round good time.
Very friendly and helpful staff
Great bowling
Lane 14 and the first time visiting this location and I have already written this place off. I'll never come back. Even after the wonderful staff member came out and cleaned the lane, you know, by the foul line where you're supposed to slide, I was still unable to slide in that entire area. Thinking it might have been my shoes I tried to slide on the way back from the foul line and sliding was achievable. I bowled on a league for several years but have never encountered a lane as terrible as lane 14.
It's something to Do, the staff is good. I always have fun here with friends and family. It's a clean place a bit older looking but it's a good environment.
Have enjoyed every-time I have gone!!
Bowling was awesome for the 2hrs my buddy got
Great environment with good music and lights, enjoyed the evening throughout.
It was a nice experience. Me and my friends had fun even though it was for an hour before closing. Overall great place to hangout with friends and family.
I booked for ten pin and got five,, disappointing. if you're not sure about what u have check your times and bookings. Cool place overall though the seating is kinda cramped and we had our space taken by another group :/
Lanes and bowling balls very dirty...I was hoping they had hand sanitizer in the lanes my hand felt so dirty. Waitress was very slow, earlier 20 year olds bowling were acually throwing, shot putting the bowling balls down the lanes and no employees noticed! Very uncomfortable atmosphere for children.
Actually hype but they need the animations for strikes, spares, and gutter balls
Good atmosphere and a fun place for family and friends to get together
Fun times
Beautiful building, superb staff, delicious drinks, and perfect pizza!
It was good but expensive
Good prices. Lots of space
It was aigh aight i ate at the lounge. Didn't bowl. 2 entrees gets you free appetizer. We got Nachos they were so good. The cute young waitress gave me a 2 free games pass. Told me about bowl and breakfast for the kids sounds like a hell of an idea. I believe its a weekend thing. Over all a good experience.
Took our daughter to go bowling and she was sick so we didn't end up staying long. They offered us to come back and play free our next time. This was very nice
My son and I decided to catch a quick game one day during the Christmas break. We decided to check out glow bowling. We had so much fun!! The staff was very friendly, the establishment well kept. My son and I bowled 2 games and really enjoyed the glowed experience during the day! Decided to order a beverage and a plate of fries while we were there. They were awesome!! Perfectly seasoned, crispy! We will def be back in the future to catch another few games. Happy to see this place in our community still even after all these years!!
Went here in the cold just to realize that the place was closed. Totally ruined my whole day. Need to update their hours for sundays or something cause Google doesn't say anything about the hours being different.
The staff were courteous and very friendly. They were very helpful when I asked if I can change my shoes coz the one I got was a biggie. Thanks HFB. We had a great time.
It's was so awesome! My first bowling experience and it was great! The mood and music were right on point and they sold meals as well!
its a good place to bowl, just dont leave nice shoes by the door as their is a thief, not the business fault but still be careful!
Great atmosphere, downfall is that in family day they only had 1 person working outside of the front counter, so drinks and food service was lacking and slow.
Nice bowling alley. Very comfy lanes
Meh, felt rushed out after we were done. Rows of tables in the bar and they were all reserved so we had nowhere to sit and finish the food we ordered. Wasn’t a very fun place. I won’t go back.
Great fun for Labour Day!
I had an incredible time here
Like the place... cozy and romantic...
Very rude!!!!
Fun
Not happy about the front desk since they started the time without telling us it was actually started. Plus, the girl was not friendly at all!
Very well kept establishment. As far as lanes go, the pins don't malfunction nearly as much (due to age of the machines) as other alleys in the city. And when they do, staff is swift to fix. Oil on lanes are nice to bowl on. Staff is very friendly. House balls are nice to use.
Very nice and cozy place. Nice music playing. Staff is very good, knowledgeable and helpful. Kids under 18 can play free all summer (registration required). The lockers are available for public use. Enough parking for public use.
They do a great job hosting birthdays for kids, and they take care of everything. Just bring the cake and they do the rest!
Awaome place for parties of all types.. Amazing youth bowling program. Fantastic Freindly staff Restaurunt/Lounge has great food at reasonable prices.
Great place to bring the kids for some good old fashioned fun!
Good bowling alley, they make running a party easy.
Friendly staff, good food. The restaurant is the only part of the main areas that isn't wheel chair accessable
Could use more staff and seemed disorganized but overall pleasant experience.
10 pin bowling!!!!!!!
Good place to share with family & friends and Enjoy the game
Love league bowling , been going to Fairhaven Bowl almost 20 years now !!!
Great place, great staff, great music played. Kid's love it
Good staff and fun environment.
Good family fun at a great price. Have free bowling for kids in summer.
Fun times
Great bowling arena, had a blast.
A full house and all 10 pins taken. Here we are asked to wait for an hour or play the 5 pin right away. Nick is the man, he spotted that a lane was opening up as clients were leaving and he switched us with out even us asking for it. Now that is called superior customer service!! Super happy with the service we received from Nick. You will enjoy the atmosphere and guess what snack lovers, they also have pizza by the slice now available!!! This is now our favorite bowling place to go to in Saskatoon!
Had a great time & very friendly people.
Love the bowl and breakfast!!
Nice place
Outstanding experience
Enjoyable but party rooms need better access for people with mobility issues
Fun place, friendly staff, and a good way to spend time with friends! The cleanliness could be improved! Parking can be an issue too!
Great place if you want a fun night with the family or to hang out with some friends. Bowling lanes have been renovated and the atmosphere is fun. Both 5 and 10 pin bowling available. I recommend the bingo bowling on 5 pin. Lots of fun and more fast paced. Don't sleep on the Wonton soup and poutine that they serve here.
I bowl here every week. Sixteen lanes of five pin bowling and eight lanes of ten pin. Table service for food and alcohol from the restaurant which is supposed to be rather good. When the restaurant is closed there is a kiosk selling beer and soft drinks as well as a machine. While the bowling alley is wheelchair accessible the restaurant is not.
Lots of fun glow bowling. The food platter was great too.
Small balls , great for small hands or hands with nails so they don't break in the hole
Fun fun fun
Great family place lanes were excellent
Love the summer Kids Bowl Free ????
Noce place for friends and families. Make sure to call in and book your time first. I go there once every quarter and I always enjoy it there. Nice staff, and nice food.
We had loads of fun during the bowling afterdark..will definitely visit again
Fun place to bowl. Glow bowling is a must. Bumpers for kids is always fun as well. 5 and 10 pin options.
We went to blacklight night, super cool. We we're accidentally over charged but it all got fixed.
Friendly staff, shoes are in good repair, and they take reservations! Glow bowling is great and of course, love the automated scoring. Five pin bowling only, so as long as you're ok with that, book, and go!
Nice place
Fun with big balls & beer. Had a great time with friends.
Lots of great updates. Very nice now!
Regular bowler and my kids do to. Great people always friendly and helpful, foods good and priced well.
Amazing team who cares about their patrons. I'm also very impressed with all their covid protocols that have been in place since before i started attending in September
Best place to go bowling in saskatoon
It was pretty okay as I haven't gone bowling for a long time.
Lots of fun had by all, pizza looked good.
staff was awesome and the food was as well!
It was awesome
Had a party with great food and service, the people here are awesome! But the lanes are built poorly and seem to break really often. Still a nice place to go though
I have not bowled for ages... My scores proved the point Lol. The breakfast deal we had with an hour of bowling was great!
First time at this place, and we loved it. The pizza was also good. The atmosphere was excellent. We really enjoyed this place and highly recommended it.
Awesome ???? night, so much fun and the staff is great
Good food great prices. Good family fun.
Environment is great. Glow bowl, wear white. Could use culturally diverse food menu
Very helpful staff
Time goes so fast when your having fun!!!. Food was great tooo
Always a good time
great food and a goodtime
Great Place to bowl
Great staff and fun for the family.
Good fun place. Really nice staff. The only issue we had which wanted me to give them a single star was they couldn't manage the people who were being rude. We were a group of family with kids with us and they first asked us to move from the tables when they were giving a lane to a couple of guys. There was a guy who was drunk and we didnt mind him bothering initially but then he started to use foul language in front of the ladies and kids. We tried ignoring him and he started getting more aggressive. We finally had to leave in between our booking because it was getting out of hand. The staff was helpful but they should have kicked him out a long time ago which would have diffused the situation. Probably one of our worse experience in Saskatoon and would for sure be careful next time when we book an alley.
Quick and friendly service with clean facilities. Great family environment.
Kids had a great time bowling. They also enjoyed the game projected onto the floor.
Just had my stores Christmas party at this location and was a ton of fun. Would recommend to anyone.
We had a great family bowl today. Upbeat music videos playing while we enjoyed our time. Wasn't too busy, either.
Always go here during the summer. The kids bowl free program during Summer holidays is a great way to get the kids out of the house and doing something active. This place is always clean and staff is super friendly. They always have the dance lights going and the music pumping. Alot of fun for a casual outing or kids birthday party. Great place to go!
Service was good and quick for how buzzy it was
The best bowling alley in town!
Whether friends, family or work, it's a fun atmosphere and an economical way for all to have a great time!
Great fun at affordable price !
Best place to enjoy with friends..Food is good too
Great staff!!
Super fun and super glow bowl
Friendly staff. You saw them cleaning the kitchen washrooms periodically and the lanes after use. It was great fun too!
My experience sucked and the workers where rude
Clean family fun!@
Great food and service...fun place to bowl
Decent prices and quality. Both 5 and 10 pin bowl options. Leagues also available here too. Kitchen and bar with limited hours
Good people
Awesome
This was a birthday party we were at. Lots of fun and laughter. Was somewhat expensive for the 2 of us(+/-$50) for 2 games and shoe rental. When bowling(5 pin) it seemed like the lanes had ruts in them, where the ball would be going in 1 direction and then get caught in a rut and go a different direction. My opinion is that the alleys need a good sanding and refinishing. The food was good, nothing fancy, good sized portions, but waaaaay too much salt and pepper used. If you order, just request no salt no pepper and you will be good.
Went we went there today and it was a total disappointment. The lane we were in wasn't working properly, it made us waste so much time of playing and we got changed to a different lane when we only had 20 minutes left of playing. It was really bad for the money we payed. But thanks for the staff that tried to help ????
Go try the breakfast and bowling! Breakfast 9.99. Kids 6.99 and you get 1 hour of bowling. We got through 2 games with 3 people! Fun Morning
Awesome fun place
Great as always
Very nice place for family and office recreation
Horrible conditions during the pandemic. They had five to a lane, which is illegal during the pandemic, and when I asked about it I was told it was “special circumstances”. I was also told that it I had to wear a mask unless drinking and eating, but the lanes around us rarely wore masks. On top of that, the server was rude, they double booked me so we couldn’t get bowling until 11 like was promised to me. Don’t go here, go to east view instead.
One of our lanes broke down and the staff worked vigilantly to repair it. After they finished repairing the lane the came by and offered to buy everyone a free drink, even the people on the other lane.
Great staff and good food.
It was a blast, had a ton of fun very nice atmosphere
Worth trying once a week
Clean and lots of space between groups. Was lots of fun!
Staff are amazing!! Food is great!! Brooklyn, Emily, Jan, Nick and the rest of the staff are all super friendly, helpful and a joy to deal with. I highly recommend for your birthday party needs as well as just every day fun!!! Oh and the food is amazingly good, not what you would expect at a bowling alley!!
Hunters will always be the best.
Great place and fun
The website hours need to be updated for summer .
Good
Great for a weekly night out. Friendly front desk staff. Good selection of house balls in different weights and finger sizes. Fair pricing and shoe rental is included.
I find it a bit challenging to aim properly because the alley is super dark with just the black lights on.
Great place for family fun
Arranged a Birthday Party for 20 5-6 year olds for 2;30-4;30. There was a Men's Provincial bowling tournament going on (( these Professional Bowlers ))) there were some of the bowlers that threated to throw the kids off the lanes if we couldn't keep them under control. (you try and control 20 excited kids when they have to wait) Paid $200.00 for the party the kids didn't get on the lanes till after 3;00 and only had time to bowl 5 Frames. This is crap THEY KNEW there was a tournament going on they should have mentioned this at the time of booking or NOT Overbooked or booked us later
Fun. Good COVID-19 protocol. Great way to get out.
Good timr
Booked 5 pin and a 10 pin lane. We were told the 10 pin lane was broken so we resolved to just bowl the 5 pin lane. About a game and a half into playing, we were told we could move to the 10 pin lane, which we did but this lane continued to break and resulted in us changing lanes yet again. The company waived the shoe rental fee for the trouble. One person in our party with a size 10 men's shoe tried mutiple pairs of shoes as he felt they were sticking and he was unable to slide. Overall, not a horrible experience. Just room for improvement.
It was awesome
Great place to have fun with friends.
Great service by the people serving my booth and the bowling was alot of fun with my family. A bit pricy on the lanes 32$ just for me and my wife my son was free so that's alot to literally throw a ball down at some pins hahah
Great league bowling. Lots of lanes and various group rates and family rates.
Fun time Excellent staff
Renovated since the last time I was there, really enjoyed it
Clean shoes provided and comfortable benches to sit on.
Great place! Fune game and the price was amazing! I cant believe 6 people bowled for 2 hours for less than $20!
Good
Good platters
Fun, standard bowling alley
Cheap monday-thursday 9-11. Lots of fun! Clean and great staff. Drinks are a little expensive
Nice and clean, so much fun
Team Christmas party.
Went here after being treated crappy at the alley a few blocks from here. Fairhaven bowl was great... Great service, great atmosphere, and friendly staff.
Very nice staff and everything is very much good ????
Nice bowling alley, decent food with well kept lanes and equipment.
Went there for some team building and I have to say it was fun. The staff suggested some game ideas and we all enjoyed ourselves.
Lots of fun, very friendly staff.I'm a terrible bowler but had a blast!! P.s. the food was very good!!
Nice bowling alley. Been here many times. If you go on a cheap night the price is right. Very fun
Good service great food.
Great staff. Had my bachelorette party there. Great times
This business is so incredible. The staff are so kind and supportive. The kids I work with want to come here every week. The owner has taken time out of his busy day to chat with me. He is so supportive and caring. He loves it when kids come in and have fun.
Staff was rude and slow and didnt get my drink order right overall wont be going back again
Not bad .
Fun times will be had by all
Exactly what you'd expect from a bowling alley, nothing crazy but no complaints.
I like it.
Great entertainment value! Lots of lights for glow bowl, projector screens for music videos and full couches for comfort. The staff is friendly and helpful.
Awesome staff and facilities. We all have a great time and the kids really like the music videos!
You gotta try bingo bowling
Everyone is very nice and the service is great. Multiple employees were sanitizing, which was comforting.
Fun place with a great atmosphere. Was nice and clean and when we were there it was packed. They would of gotten five stars, but we found the service was slow. It was better for us to get drinks ourselves. And the lane we were on kept resetting a pin which was frustrating. I do recommend the place as the service may be better on slower nights and I doubt the pin resetting was normal.
Awesome place for a good game of bowling. Had fun with the bumpers on the side, not used to this for bowling, but it put a fun twist on the game. Good service. Clean and place. Fun family fun and good tunes
Not specific about if you pay for amount of time or number of games. An hour in, we'd finished two games and were told that it was expected that two games would have taken two hours
Great food.
Fun family atmosphere, great service very accommodating.
Awesome place fun for the family or get togethers.
Nice place for family and friends, nice pizza.
It was a good time!
The staff was helpful and very accommodating. The place was clean and inviting. We had a great time for very little cost. Definitely going back.
Great place to go bowling, join a league or just have fun with the family! Both large and small ball bowling and great service while you have fun or sit in the lounge! Cant say how good the food is but portions are large and it does smell great!
Best place to bowl
Fun!
Super fun
Great place to bowl an have fun
It's one of the better place to bowl in town. But if you have thicker fingers, your options for 10 pin bowling are limited as I've only ever seen one ball there with the extra large holes and it's one of the heavier balls.
Friendly staff, great place for family fun!
Great service. Friendly staff
So fun! What a nice family outing!
They offer glow bowling which is a big hit with the kids.
Awesome time. Great food, lots of fun
Nothing but technical issues, horrible covid regulations.
Full fun
We came to bowl at 8pm being told we had the lane booked until 11. Upon arrival we were told we could only bowl until 9pm because at 9 they were “at capacity”. During our hour we saw a lane with 5 people together, (even though me and my 4 …
Loads of fun, great price, just kind of a confusing area if you are driving
It's a fun place for the kids, adults can enjoy food and beverages as well.
Hey Guys. I felt responsible for leaving this review for this location because we had such terrible time when we went over there for our daughter's birthday party. Her 6 friends and parents came. We we promised the party room which was downstairs and our party was booked for 2 hours. First hour for cake and presents and 2nd for bowling. When we went there they actually moved the cake time from 2:30 to 3:30 without asking even though I called in the morning of the day of the party to make sure everything is in place. They assured me that everything is okay. And when I told them that they made the mistake, they didn't give me the birthday party room which is downstairs, they moved our party to the bar upstairs. Where everyone was in and out holding drinks and kids were running around and going upto the bar also which was so uncomfortable. One guy almost spilled the drink on the kid. All the parents seemed unhappy with me since that isn't the environment for a 6 years old to be in. That bar had two entrances, one from the main door outside and one from the bowling area. And people were in and out every second. It was crazy. We were not able to enjoy the party at all. Since we had to make sure that kids are safe. Lighting was obviously wrong for the occasion. It was so dark. The photos and videos came out not good at all. The food was late since they booked it on the wrong time. Kids were sitting hungry. The passes were not given also which came in the package. think they like to entertain the big party only , if you are just someone like me just with 6-7 kids coming to the party, it might not be the place for you. I wish I had read the reviews first. When I called the next day, talked with the manager, he was understanding and asked me to come and get the refund but I was too busy to go. Then today I think it was the owner of the place , he told me that the manager overstepped his boundaries. I really didn't care about the refund otherwise I could have rushed to the place, it was the tone of the owner who just called me. He was rude and demeaning. He asked me what is so wrong if the kids were having party in the bar area. And they can actually move the place of the party. When I said that I wasn't informed that the place isn't available anymore, he said to me, "but you still celebrated your daughter's birthday here right?" I was surprised. I asked what else could I have done since I booked that place and kids and parents were coming in. I couldn't change the venue 5 mins prior to the party and he laughed and said that he doesn't understand any of this. He said if you book the place, it is an unsaid thing that that they can change whatever. Clearly he is unapologetic, rude and demeaning. I felt disrespected just talking with him on the phone. After every sentence he kept saying, " What else" ? Like he cant seem to understand the problem . So he told me that place and timing can be moved. If you are going there, you are on their mercy even though you are the one paying.I don't even want to give one star to this place but can't do that. I will obviously wont go there and give this mean and disrespectful guy anymore business. And warn my friends and family as well. Like they say "every penny counts".Save your money, time and peace .Thanks for reading
Fun date experience playing bowling. They also have a separate bar area to sit down and relax.
Lovely
Seems a lot newer than Eastview. I guess they don’t have servers come around anymore though.
Horrible service, lady literally picked up a mop when we're about to order. After she was being all fast and pleasantly nice with numerous people before us. Never again.
Way too noisy. Otherwise good.
Great league, friendly staff... wonderful breakfast & bowling promo in weekends.
Poor customer service from multiple staff members. According to the website, the restaurant is open Monday-Friday from 5:30 to close, but when we arrived at 6 pm, it was closed. We asked a staff member if it would be opening and she explained in a rude tone of voice that "Obviously it's closed until the new year." The 10 pin bowling lanes we played on had multiple issues and made numerous errors. Very disappointed in this place.
