If you have a birthday party, this is the perfect place. You get great choices at great affordable price. The host was so nice. We had such a good time. Thank you for the great service. This place is highly recommended.
Took over an hour to get the pizza. Checked on it several times and they said in about 10 min, in about 7 min. 20 minutes after our 7 minute promise they paged us to let us know they were out of sausage. When we did get it the outside edge 1/6th of the pizzas were burnt. The. Young lady that took my family in for laser tag was rude. Very short with all of us. We are a sweet nerd family. Truly uncalled for. I will never take my family back. Family of 12 will take there business somewhere more friendly for sure. Front desk people were nice. That is about it. Dont waste your money.
Had a blast at cosmic bowling! Good family fun! Pizza is tasty, video games are fun, plus theres laser tag. Cant go wrong bringing the kids here!
Had a great time. Cosmic bowling was great. Ever other lane is open, great social distancing.
Delicious pizza in great bowling alley and arcades are cool too great laser tag
Awesome place..good wings..and they didnt mind dirtying da blender fa my white russian.. blended not stirred!! And thanks for the free meal..I jus asked for a discount..God bless you
Love the older gentleman who is funny, sarcastic, blunt and fast. Set up screens were easy to use and understand, music was varied and just enough. All areas were clean and had easy access. Snack foods were freshly fried and drinks were great. Definitely recommend the mini corn dogs
Friendly staff. Clean facilities. Most important family had loads of fun playing laser tag.
Always a good time here. And love the little arcade they have now.
Great service at this location. The only reason Im giving 4 stars is that one of the lanes kept getting stalled. And we had to wait for reset. Otherwise, nice service, fast pizza prep, clean facilities.
Nice lanes, pin setters work.
Very nice bowling alley that has $9.99 bowling for 2 hours on Thursday-Sunday after 9pm. Lots of bowling balls to choose from. Has a pro shop, bar, Cafe, laser tag, and game room.
Great family friendly fun. Food is good, we had the pizza hit the spot. My daughter had an excellent time she landed her first strike with bumper assist! We havent tried the laser tag yet do to my daughter only being three but the arcade was fun as well. Would be a fun place for kids birthday parties
Always a great time, definitely would recommend. Always very clean and good food aswell! We love the fried pickles.
We bowled here with our Church & the employees were friends & helped us get anything setup! Done a great job considering the number of kids we had!
Great bowling alley with a great game area for kids. They really have done a lot to stay relevant.
Its slot of fun great night for family time
Love this place. Bowl on several leagues and feel like Im part of the in group with the employees.
Good time. Oil was good. The score keeping sensors on lane 1 kept showing the 10 pin. Kinda a pain.
Had a wonderful 13th birthday party for my son. The whole family had a great time.
The atmosphere is great. Bowling, an arcade area, laser tag.Pizza was great, beers all around. Bring a group and have a great time.
Love the laser tag, went on a company outing and will be taking my kids with me next time
Great atmosphere!
Love it there. Cant wait to get back to bowling with the grandbabies!!
Staff is friendly...The place is clean...especially the restrooms...Just wished the laser tag was open while we were there
Always fun and good customer service too! Pizza very tasty!
Very friendly staff. Nice and fun. Full bar. Kid friendly. Lots of video games and laser tag. Clean enough. Pizza was okay. Paid at the end.. family of 5 on two lanes cost us $84 for two lanes. We were there about 2 hours. A little pricey, but I haven’t been bowling since I was young, so I’m sure there’s a reason prices have gone up.
Did great with my toddlers bday party! & plenty to do besides bowl!
Nice place. Was there for kids bday party. Kids had fun and had laser tag games and bowling.
Lazer tag is fun. Bowling is fun. Food is undercooked. Messy.
Nice bowling alley that had a good variety of food choices. We did not eat there this time but will definitely try the food next time as the menu looked good. We opted for a savings package that included bowling, shoes, and a pitcher of soda. Less than $10 a person which is a great deal. It was clean and the staff was friendly, not much more you could ask for.
I came on a day when this place was packed. However even though it was busy, I was able to come in the door, pay and get setup in my lane. They offer a nice bar secluded from the bowling lanes, and they serve good food and play awesome music. Staff seemed nice
Went on a Saturday evening. Arrived at about 5:45. Two adults and two kids (15 and 8). It was 55 bucks for the lane for an hour and a half, the shoes, a large pizza and a pitcher of pop (after 6 PM I think the price goes up by like 6 bucks). Guys at the counter were really friendly. The guys at the concession stand were really friendly. The girl behind the bar was really friendly. Oh yeah, tall Bud light was $4.50. Might have been more cost effective to just get a pitcher honestly. But still reasonable. And the lane attendants (the guys who come by and clear trash away for you and clear the lane if a pin pops out too far) were quick and friendly too. At the time we went, I would say it was about 50% families with young kids, and about 50% younger people on dates. Towards the time we left, it did seem to be filling in with more groups of just older adults. And it was really busy when we went, but they kept things moving more than reasonably quickly. All in all it was a fun night out with the family. And the cost seemed really reasonable, especially when you compare it to several of the other bowling alleys in the Dayton area. Well probably go again.
This bowling alley is really great! Big, clean, and it feels up-to-date compared to many others Ive been in. If youre looking for family fun, besides the bowling (with some of the pins being fun neon colors) they also have a small arcade (8 to 10 games) laser tag (which we didnt have time for but looks cool) and a laser maze! The employees were nice and I was also impressed that they were holding a huge fund raiser for Big Brothers/Big Sisters that day.
Lazar tag is ok, bowling is good, arcade is good. But my burger was undercooked and the littel food area was very messy.
Had an amazing time. Fun and clean
Seeing my grandkids have fun bowling
Great deals on Sunday, blow the competition out of the water! Arena is very similar to others locally, equipment is lightweight and comfortable.Great management who cares about the safety of their customers!See you soon!
Best... Great place for the family.
Good tournament and good bowling alley food
LASER TAG! great atmosphere Had fun. Thanks!
The workers were very helpful and accommodating for our party size and the atmosphere was great.
Fun place, nice lanes. Not super clean, but mostly just when its really crowded.
Friendly, staff gave us free socks. The dinner has cheap food and friendly. Bowling is a little pricey.
Great bowling alley, I paid 10 bucks a person for 2 hrs and shoes. Lanes and balls in good condition. Beers pretty cheap, they have jello shots! The food is meh. Theres an arcade but it only takes card, not coin. And theres laser tag. Ive been meaning to play but my friends and I always get there after it closes. Staff are friendly. Would recommend.
Love it. Too bad our league has been cancelled until further notice
I called this place two weeks prior to my sons birthday party and spoke with a young lady regarding a party package.. she explained their deals and i booked three lanes that included pizza and soda .. she took my name and the time i wanted my family and friends to come .. at the time she seemed very helpful. The day of the party the manager or owner or whoever the guy with the white hair and glasses that was running the place was very nasty to my guest that showed up earlier than i did .. once i got there to confirm we had a party the guy told me “ILL SEE WHAT I CAN DO” which was very confusing because all he had to do is look up our name.. i gave him my first and last name and he came back and said “nope i don’t have any party for you maybe go to Wilmington location people do that all the time” (the person i talked to obviously screwed up and didn’t put our reservation in) and he walked away .. i asked if we could still bowl because all of our guest were headed to that location and he said that all he can do is give us maybe two lanes and they were gonna separate us. The whole time he didn’t seem concerned or even helpful.. we called the Wilmington location while standing at the counter and they got us right in with cheaper deals, better set up and better service. I’ll never give this place my money.. i couldn’t believe he would just allow us to book at another venue when the problem was their fault.. bad deal, bad customer service, and bad for business..
Great pro shop! Very helpful, friendly, and informative.
Love the cosmic bowling and sunday special. Staff r great.
We have so much fun at Woodman Lanes! The employees are always so friendly and go to extra lengths to make my kids feel special. We order from the diner every time we go, and always love our food. Its a perfect place to go on hot days, on rainy days, or just any time we want a fun time with the family!
Great customer service and majority white people but we didnt feel any negativity coming from staff. Definitely would go back.
I love that they added Lazer Tag here, my kids have a absolute blast between bowling, the arcade, and Lazer Tag. Only downside is my Kids cant get enough lol so it gets expensive, but very good place to go with kids. I enjoy it a lot myself
Great staff, all very friendly. Had my daughters birthday party there and everyone was great, helpful and patient w/ the group of girls we had.
We went there for a field trip with a group of special needs children and the staff were very accommodating and helpful!
Went for a party and it was super unorganized. The party planner was so completely lost and unable to do her job. Some of the staff was rude and it really just wasnt good for the kids.
My favorite part of my experience here was when I walked by the desk and overheard an older man with white hair and glasses (Dana, I think someone called him?) talking about a woman with “big boobs” and how she looked. That’s really awful to hear in a “family friendly” place. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll be taking my kids here again:(
Bowled and played laser tag with daughter and granddaughters.
This is my favorite bowling alley but, I havent been in awhile. Does anyone know if we need to call in advance to schedule a lane? TIA
Lights on Friday & Saturday are cool!!
What an awesome place to take your family! They have wonderful food and the prices arent bad either. Do call ahead as leagues fill many nights of the week and lanes are limited. There is an arcade as well as a laser tag for the children as an added thing to do or if bowling isnt their thing, theres plenty for them to have fun with. Dana at the front desk is always very friendly and cooperative and goes out of his way to make sure you have a good experience! Bruce as well! Jess in the bar is very friendly and helpful!! This is definitely a very family-friendly place to enjoy!
What a place ! I dont get to good ole Woodman Lanes very often, but it is still a really nice bowling venue. I used to play pinball for hours and hours on end in the Sixties, Woodman Lanes looks better than ever !
Before buying the gift card special, I specifically asked the gentleman before hand what time cosmic bowling started and if we could still buy the family deal during that time which he told me yes so I purchased it. Got here at 930 pm a Friday night to then be told we couldnt do that. So instantly went from $50 to $75. Not to mention the guy at the front was not kind about this situation. Another thing, the alleys were so oiled up they left a grease residue on our clothes just from touching the balls. It was almost dripping from the balls. We sat here for an hour with us and 5 lanes in the entire place being used all cramped into the corner. We used lane 40. Lanes 36,37,38,39 and our 40 were the only ones being used. Why not spread people out? This place is not a good place to go on a weekend night. Also would like to point out, the family deal special says after 6pm on Friday or Saturday- add $6. Was told tonight that meant up until 9pm. Maybe that should be written in the deal fine print.
So much family fun! The kids love it.
I came in to make a reservation for a birthday party for my 10 year old son. The two gentlemen at the counter were extremely helpful and courteous. They answered all my questions. They also provided me with information for me to take home to help me decide what package to choose. Needless to say, I put a deposit down to reserve the party. The service was excellent!
Tha k you for your service and help with the tournaments
Excellent place to just casually have some fun or have a little competition. Did have to wait at the counter for some time though.
The machine to bring the balls back kept screwing up and not bringing ball back, we told the desk person and we changed lanes same thing kept happening so we told him again he said “well that’s a problem that’s just gonna keep happening” and laughed... but the problem is it was only happening on those two lanes everyone else was getting their balls back fine... food was great though only plus side to this place.
Love the new things they have done!
Great place for family outing
Great bowling alley, with friendly service, kept clean and well kept lanes. Good fast food and drinks. Plenty of leagues and special events and theyve opened a new laser tag section to their building that is reasonably priced and has specials as well. Good fun for family and friends.
Know that most prices dont include shoe rental. It was fun, but could only justify coming once a year with these prices.
Clean place but now that the food is weighed you get very small portions and there arent ever any beer specials ($18 for a bucket of 6 is over priced).Edit:Im aware your buckets are 5 beers. 5 beers for $15 Is still the same price per beer as 6 beers for $18. I always bought six because I bowled with 2 friends. Regarding the portions, when I bowled the summer league in 2016 we got considerably more food than when we bowled the summer league in 2017. Would have been nice to incentivize more people to join the league by offering specials on beer, food, etc.
This is the best bowling place Ive ever been
Great family oriented place. Good eats, too!
We had a birthday party here and they some of the nicest staff we have encountered. They continued to check on us and even took the time to talk to my 4 year old at the desk when she had a question while a huge tournament was going on. The outside may look a bit down on the outside but the inside has a new arcade and a huge laser tag area that is two storys. If you are looking for a great place to have a birthday party or just a night out with your loved ones, go here its worth the money.
Good place to go bowling lots of good deals
Great for parties.
Poor management, Great place to come and have a good time but wouldnt recommend working here. Was scheduled to work 4 days but that suddenly got cut to me working 1 day..
Clean and well presented. The staff is friendly and quickly accommodate to any issues or requests. The laser tag is superb, the best I’ve been a part of. It has a decent arcade and a laser maze as well. The ticket amounts for the gifts are very well done. The only thing lacking is the bar does not have a dart board. Not a big thing but a bummer for me personally.
Great lanes...hesitant on the 5 stars as this particular location offers no deals to talk about for the High School Bowlers but its counterpart location on Wilmington does as does Capri Lanes also offers amazing deals. 5 stars given as the staff are amazing and staff member Bruce has a heart of Gold when it comes to helping the youth achieve greatness. He is a 5 star man all day every day and twice on Sundays!! Very loveable human being and they are lucky to have him on board. Place wouldnt be the same without him.
Nice bowling alley
If i could give zero stars i would. the guy rang us up wrong and so we didnt play a full second game somehow, and then he got mad when we pointed out his mistake. he rang us up for two games for two people even though there were three of us and he rented us three pairs of shoes. so when we played with three people the game ended four frames into the second game. also, he charged us 32 dollars for two games for two people and three pairs of shoes, which not only makes no sense but is also a terrible value. also all the arcade games are bad and not worth anyones time.
Very nice staff. Clean atmosphere. And Bob at the pro shop has to be one of the best.
Fun bowling. Education specialist from Kincaids Music.
Ridiculous rule of only having bumpers under the age of 9. I paid money just to watch my ball go into the gutter. Im not playing professionally, just wanted to have fun.
Awesome bowling alley. Reasonably priced. Lazer bowl is really cool. All around good time
A bit of an older bowling alley, but the staff is very friendly and helpful. They have the typical fried junk food and beer selection. A fun place to spend an evening.
Workers are pleasant and plenty of lanes
The workers here are very nice and willing to help. This includes the front counter, laser tag guys, and kitchen.I would definitely recommend trying the laser tag and eating some fried potato cheese balls.
Had my sons 13th bday party..our helper Emma was amazing,it was an awesome time!
Love the friendly atmosphere. The workers are great. Enjoy bowling there
Ot was a birthday party
Its always good to be their employees are very nice
