SistasofPraise777

They took the cafe part out. So only food is vending machines. Don't nobody wanna sit, bowl and not eat. I'm highly upset I won't be back no time soon.

Scott Soucy

Took the family out for a few games of bowling for my daughter's birthday. Nice staff and close to home.

HoneyHoney

Great place for family and friends

Kamonu Tucker

The place is still great. Clean, good bowlers there as well. My only qualm was the heavy oil pattern, however it proves a great challenge. Check it out if you are near by. I've also decided to add my opinion on price here. They are just a little to expensive as far as prices go. It was $24 for just six games. Bronco offers $9.50 for the same amount. Be cautious if you are bowling on a budget. Thank you Owner for seeing this review. I went on the weekend and had one other bowler with me. She did need shoes as well.

T'Challa Bryant

no one showed up for family bowing night

Shanita Brown

Food prices to high especially during these hard times for folks who's trying to get back out into society just for them to go broke on four wings and fries. Not good not good. Ijs

Eli Lee

Don't let your children no matter what age come in here by themselves. They will rip them off as long as they don't have an adult and as long as they don't know their thing. I have experienced it first hand as a kid and now when I talk to other bowling alley about it, they also said the same thing.

Darlin Menace

Cash only everything

shataysha kelley

Cool place to bowl late

dylan noland

Mike Bivins

Come and enjoy yourself

The Bubble Monster

Great place

Dyle Kavis

Cops show up as civilianized and harass bowlers/drinkers the same while they themselves enjoy a beverage or 4. Makes for an unenjoyable enviornment

Tiffany Howard

Affordable prices but kids can't bowl past 8pm if you're with 17 and under family. They took forever to make my grilled cheese and fries. Then she only gave me one napkin and my cousin only got one when she ordered cheese sauce on the side! You know she is going to need more than that to wipe her hands. She gave the non POC a bunch of napkins for mozzarella sticks and fries for her daughters before my food was ready if course. Who takes that long to make a grilled cheese sandwich? ????

Becky Johnson

Sucks no one is nice

Visit this place every Sunday with my sister who has her league there. Always have fun, food last time visited was not as good, order was wrong. And took them over 1 hour to make it. Then when I went down to find out what was going on, they forgot about me and just started it. But any other time I have had no problem.

kei e

It was cool

Michelle byrd

Great place for me to practice!!

Wayne Blount

Very friendly house, Luv it ???????????? !

bob Detroit

This is the most ghetto place I have been in, in my life. It is dirty, the carpet should have been replaced in 1979. The carpet is FILTHY, and it is frayed. The staff is rude. It reeks of weed. I have never had one of my shoes held captive while I bowled. I woul not even give this ran down dump a second chance. Your employees could use a class in customer service. F----

Dakota Huyghe

This place is extremely professional. Dan (the owner) is extremely rude, Leigh (main manager) doesnt comminicate the schedule for employees until maybe the day before their shift, and both Dan and Dee (long time counter employee) smoke in the office in back during business hours and on the concourse once the place closes. If youre seeking employment here I would highly advise looking elsewhere.

Gloria Taylor

Had a great time reasonable prices.

Janis Lee

Great house neat and clean great staff.

Cutie Pie Love Girl

Dated interior, and hot/humid inside

Malika Jackson

Good place to go to love bowling

Nelly Marie

Absolutely cannot stand this place! Got here at 6:30pm on a Saturday, and there was no music being played. The bar was closed & the food took way too long. Any other bowling alley I've been to has not been like this. I don't understand where all the good reviews are coming from. This place used to be good a few years ago but recently it's changed dramatically. I came here because another alley was closed at the time & the only reason I gave it two stars was because the price was cheap. Oh, don't forget your cash, since it's a cash only establishment which is also annoying. I'll never return!!

Mathew Kellogg

The workers were very friendly as well as fellow bowlers, the prices were very reasonable and the place was kept very clean.

Nikita Strickland

I will never go here and bowl again. The management and his staff were horribly rude. I thought it was a little costly. Not to mention you can't use credit or debit cards but they have a ATM machine near the counter. I really think this establishment needs to be shut down we took my family from out of town here to enjoy family bonding and almost left. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone!

Greg Swieczkowski

Good prices. Great staff

Ben Griffor

It's cool

Jasmine Adams

Over priced at $28 ($20/hr/lane) for 2 on a Monday.... and NOT Covid friendly. No one has on a mask and no distance between bowlers. I won’t return.

Renee Reid

love this place great people

Conrad

sylvanus thomas

Bar closes early and the kitchen they close at 12mid on sat

Beth Hall

Proper use of masks and social distancing. $20 an hour no matter how many people.

Sue Osborne

Not happy. Lanes had not been cleaned up after a party. Scoring needed correction constantly. Scoring would not let us finish a game, the lanes turned off even though we paid ahead. Bartender busy on cell phone got the feeling we were bothering her by ordering. Had a good time with my group, but not because of the house.

Jason Mackey

Great atmosphere will be bk ????

D Hill

Great service. Fun atmosphere

Markeetta Harrell

Didn't even have the chance to even go because when I called to just get pricing, the lady was sooooo freaking rude it irritated me so bad. And let's be serious, who wants to go to a place with rude people?

Heather Jaqua

I called to inquire what their open bowling hours were and I was told after 8:30 on Saturday’s. We showed up with two children and leagues were still playing, which we thought they’d be finishing up, however, the desk clerk told us it won’t be u til 9:30. Meanwhile, six of us are uncomfortably hanging around the very small gaming area and encroaching on the league player’s space. We asked if we could sit in the bar area, where there are open tables and we wouldn’t be in the way of the league. We were told yes by an employee, so we settled at a table. We then went up to the bar to order drinks and asked again if we were okay with kids in the area and , the woman bartender rudely told us we were not allowed in the bar area with children. Her curt behavior was uncalled for, considering we were conscious of asking and we were trying to be considerate of the rules. So, back to the crowded area where we are waiting over an hour for open bowl to begin. The place needs new carpeting. Drinks are high priced for a bowling alley. I’ve been here 20 minutes and I’m not yet impressed.

Arlester Jefferson

Had a great time... at the Men's Day fundraiser for Bethel Baptist Church, East

Athena Williams

This place is pretty cheap and reasonable the only thing is it needs to be updated. I guess that’s why it’s so cheap to bowl ???? here but the staff was very friendly. It says EVERYWHERE that they only accept cash so don’t be upset when you go and they don’t accept debt/credit cards.

DeJohn Tripp

Really crowded and parking lot full of potholes. Good bowling balls

Robert Hoover

Best pro shop in town!!

Joyce Seefeld

Nice place people are friendly

Elaine Jackson

Dirty. The parking lot needs to be resurfaced. I hate this place. Missing Hazel Park

Spot Light

1.) 1st and last time coming. You all take CASH ONLY sounds like a mean case of tax evasion. That is the most unprofessional trait of a business saying cash only when i had to pay a fee at your atm! 2) we ordered an extra onion ring order and you all played like we only ordered 1 instead of 2 . It took forever to get our food. You all had NO NAPKINS (ARE YOU KIDDING ME). Then you all day NO REFUNDS VERBALLY! I know contract law and the word NO REFUNDS must be CONSPICUOUS, don’t wait until after we complain about no refunds. 3) i domt understand why the tables are MOUNTED DOWN BLOCKING THE COMPUTER SO WE HAD TO STAND TO PUR IN OUR NAMES. YOU ALL SHOULD HAVE MAPPED OUT THAT IDEA BEFORE DOING THIS WHICH IS VERY INCONVENIENT. 4) the bowling was ok place pretty clean 5) security guards available for comfort. Won't be coming back and the food was very dry and had no flavor.

Susan MOSES

Good price, nice lanes, friendly service
