Too Much Fun

by rockinroller

The '60s exterior conceals a state of the art bowling alley, complete with high tech light and sound system.

We went on a Monday night, paid a $9.00 cover charge, then paid only 50 cents a game for bowling and 50 cents per draft beer - a lot of fun for not much money. The staff is friendly and helpful. They even give you a free pair of socks when you rent your bolwing shoes.

• Pros: clean rest rooms, inexpensive, fun

not a fun place to bowl

by gdub823

The technology is good there, the machines don't get stuck, the lanes allow pretty good hook, and they even have radar guns to show your bowling speed, BUT...

I think its the only place where you can't pay per game (a few exceptions). Since they charge per hour everyone tries to get as many games in as possible per hour. So all bowling courtesy is ignored there. As you're bowling, the person in the lane right next to you will go at the same time. Lastly, you may be in the middle of a great game when your hour runs out, and you can't finish it unless you pay for another hour.
