    Closing??? Noooo. You will be missed Brunswick Zone. These are always a good time. I hope this is an isolated closing and not the beginning of mulitple closings or worse.

    If you've never been to a BZ and like bowling or have kids, then you should definitely check one out near you!

    Sad, tried to take my kids there today---perhaps I should've checked Yelp first before going.....didn't know this closed. So much fun, this had rides, an arcade, plus a little restaurant and lots of lanes.

    I'd been going here since around 1988, maybe longer, sadly bowling is just not considered fun by some anymore. :((((((((

    This is my favorite bowling alley mainly because of proximity, but they also have good deals on bowling.  I'm sad to receive news that it is closing down *sniff*  This location will be closing on February 29th.  Goodbye old buddy old pal.

    Just a regular, crowded bowling alley with cosmic bowling in the later hours and teens with nothing else to do. The only complaint I have is that our group was told to wait 30 minutes for some lanes to open up; after 30 minutes, they told us to wait another 30 minutes. One of my friends finally went up to them, complained, and got some lanes right away. What the...!?

    Not a big bowling fan in general, but headed here for my sis-in-law's birthday. Everything in the bowling alley is new and updated. There isn't a ton of seating by each lane, so if you're next to a large birthday party sharing 2 lanes, like we were, you might have to squeeze to find a place to sit. Plus, it's super loud, but I guess that can be expected at any bowling alley.

    The best part for me was the bumper cars! I thought those were only around when a carnival came to town. My in-laws, husband, and I all went on the bumper cars at the same time, which was really fun because we were the only ones out there during that time.

    There's also air hockey, laser tag, a plane-type ride for kids, and other standard arcade games. My husband's favorite was a game he used to play all the time in childhood - X-Men.

    Overall, a good time.

    FUNNNNNESSS!!!
    I went here with my softball team and we bowled. Which reminds me of all my pitches that touched the groud. But despite my horible memories of awefull pitching, we had an awesome time. And then later my cousin had his party and we laser tagged like there was no tommorow!!!! And then...arcade! And there was actual bumper cars! I thought those only existed in cartoons! Awwww... Crashing into people you hate, without getting a ticket...

    Bowling can be pricey, but if you sign up for their Brunswick Bonus Zone they will e-mail you coupons frequently. I actually got one in the mail via those Value-Paks and four of us were able to bowl for two hours for only $19.99. That included shoe rental and a free pitcher of pop. The condition of the lanes is superb and everyone had a great time.

    There's also a huge arcade, laser tag, and a few small rides on site. Just beware: the air hockey stinks because the puck keeps sticking to the table. Other than that, I highly recommend this particular Brunswick because it's smoke-free all the time unlike the other Brunswicks which are only smoke-free during certain hours.

    Bowling alleys are the same for me.But it was the hot spot from my boy's high school years. It still is the hot spot in the area apparently. All the lil teenagers were def there making me amused to see them and feeling all mature like an ancient oak tree. The scoring system was electronic, it worked, the drinks/bar was average, the prices were what you'd expcect without suprises.

    Been going here over 15 years and the staff is great.  Enjoy the game room and bowling.  My son has been participating in a youth league and gets some great coaching from the staff, too bad he still blames it on the "crooked" alleys when he gets a gutte ball.

    It's your basic alley. Music is a little loud... clientelle on our Tuesday night visit was 90% teenagers... but none of them were obnoxious. There's food. One of our party had a Burger and didn't complain. There's a bar, too... but none of us were drinkers, so we didn't partake. We found an awesome coupon that for us in for 29.99 for 6 people 2 hours of bowling, including shoes and a pitcher of soda.
