I don't go bowling very often but when I do, i have a good time.  This place was no different.  It's kind of hard to rate a bowling alley, because the way I see it is, how much fun you have depends on your company.  

To be honest, I have no idea how much it costs to play here.  My friends and I went here for an organized event by a club at our school so I couldn't tell you if it's a good deal or not..  I can tell you we got our shoes right away, the employees appeared to be very nice, they had a variety of bowling balls (including my newly favorite/lucky 11lb green one)!  They also have this candy machine where you try to fish out candy...that was more addicting than the bowling...at least I got some candy after i played!  ha ha

The only weird thing was, when my friends and I were waiting around for the rest of the people to show up, everyone just seemed to be staring at us as if they've never seen a group of girls... a little uncomfortable.

I wish there was a bowling alley as sweet as this one in my neighborhood!

I was here a couple of years ago for my little cousin's birthday party and it was a blast.  They've got a great snack bar (pizzas, sandwiches, etc.) and lots and lots of lanes!

We came back after a visit to the Buffalo Inn.  I'm not a great bowler (okay, okay, I suck) but I had fun anyway.  I think I bowled my worst game ever.  Woo-hoo!!

$56 for 4 players (including shoe rental) on a Saturday afternoon.  Steep, but well, its a Saturday afternoon.  And we had a hell of a lot more fun than we would have at a movie.

I'm total crap at bowling, but I happen to every week or so with some friends to bond.  I used to like going to this place because prices were cheap on Wednesday when we'd bowl($4 flat rate, 25 cents per game).  Now the manager there decided that $9 bowling from 9 to midnight would be a total bargain, but I think it's dumb.  I'm sure they have better deals on other days, but I like bowling on Wednesday.  

It's a bowling alley.  It's got lanes.  There are bowling balls.  It's clean.  My only other complaint is that they play horrible music.  It throws off my game worse than it already is.

During my senior year of college a group of lady friends and I formed a bowling society that met every Monday, and this was our locale of choice.  The number one reason?  Dollar shoes and dollar games EVERY MONDAY NIGHT!  The special begins at 8:00 pm, and it's best to get there early because the line gets real long real fast (because, let's be honest, WHO would want to pass up a deal like that?).  But even if you have to put your name on the waiting list, they have an arcade with a fairly good selection of games and a bar/lounge where you can hang out until some lanes free up.  The bartender, Angel, is... well, an angel.  We befriended her quickly, and she not only gave us cheap drinks but would even put in a good word here and there with the cashier to help bump us up on the waiting list (shhh, don't tell).  If you're feeling daring grab an order of cheesy fries or a pizza from the concession stand, but prepare yourself for a potential stomach ache.  Then bowl bowl bowl away, for as many games as you can stand (because they're only a dollar!), and don't forget to jam to the guilty-pleasure music videos playing on televisions at every lane.  I honestly don't know how I would have survived college without this place.
