    I won't ever go to another bowling alley in Gainesville after visiting Alley Gatorz. I enjoy bowling, but always felt like it was so expensive after shoe rentals and games; not at Alley Gatorz. Almost every night they have some crazy special where bowling costs close to nothing! Wednesday nights: 50 cent night: you pay a $5 cover and then everything is 50cents games, shoe rentals, 10oz beers, hot dogs..its a great deal. I go bowling once or twice a week now. Alley Gatorz is great.

    The bar is the actual star here... yeah, there is bowling and such - but the real fun is in the bar. There is a pro shop too, Rusty runs that. He rocks.

    Thursday night is trivia, they do a poker night and a karaoke night, there is a pro shop and one of those digital networked jukeboxes...

    But really. Its all about the bar. Especially when Kim is behind the bar.

    Oh, and the grill isn't bad either. Juicy burgers, decent fries and more.

History

Established in 2005

This was originally another bowling center in Gainesville.  This was the busiest bowling center in Gainesville for years.  The business was closed for several years before being reopened as Alley Gatorz.

We have had the privilege of hosting the Professional Bowlers Association Southern regional tournament in July of 2007 bringing in almost 100 of the best bowlers from the national and regional professional ranks.  We are once again hosting this tournament July 3,4, and 5, 2009.  We look forward to seeing the great professional bowlers and invite all of  you to come out and see some of the best bowlers doing what they do best.

Meet the Manager: Pat R.
