Great prices and very nice people that work there. Ive been in league here since 1996 and its still just as fun now as when I first started. Im teaching my son to bowl and Ric in the pro shop is more than willing to help with lessons and equipment. He can get you fitted for shoes and a ball today. Tell him Friday sent you

Had a great time here. Only minor problems I had were that the shoes were a bit dated and the lane could have been slicker. The staff was very courteous and addressed any issues quickly and with a smile. The game room had a nice blend of skee ball, air hockey and video games for the kiddos. My family left very happy!

Went here on a company function. We all had fun. Lanes were responsive. With they had a better selection of public balls. We had some great pizza and we drank many pitchers of beer. This is decently our go to place when in town.

Very disappointed in the quality of the bowling alley. Normally when we come everything works great but not this time, we had to switch 2 lanes twice because of faulty equipment. And balls were full of chips,spent almost $150 to have a bad experience thanks. TIME FOR AN REMODEL. QUICK UPDATE : IT IS now 8:17 and we were forced to get only 1 and 1/2 hours because we close at 8, only for some one to start bowling right next to us at 8:13.

I had a great time bowling here.This particular bowling center has a very outdated interior/decor and costs along the same prices with the newer spots. That could be debatable, though (?)It smelled very smoky inside. That was very disappointing, too.It has been a little over a decade since I went bowling, but this antiquated place is certainly for those of you who find nostalgia over smoke scents and that old and outdated appeal.

Fun time for a date or family. Check for league play. Older balls but hey they are free to use. A little more expensive than I am use to but its was a while since I bowled. The employees are very helpful and knowledgeable.

We went here a few weeks ago but when we walked in there was a really strong smell. I thought it was cigarettes or maybe they used to allow smoking somewhere in there. We ended up leaving to go to another bowling alley.

We were there last night the staff was very friendly while we were paying. The kids got bored bowling so decided to play the arcade games. While two girls in our group decided to take pictures after the machine printed pictures from the group before them so they explained to staff and were reimbursed. They tried it again thinking it had just malfunctioned because no one stated it was out of order. After taking the pictures and waiting for them to print the assistant manager Christine walked over and told them with an attitude that it was out of order and grabbed whatever had printed. One of the girls mentioned no one asked for an attitude she replied with no one asked what you asked for. So I went to address the issue with her and got the same attitude. I told her if she had an issue with people’s children she should take it up with the parents because I do know how teenage girls can be and she should know as well being she’s probably in her early to mid 20s. She had an attitude and smerked the entire time I talked to her. I asked her how she would like it had I corrected her children and her response was that’s not going to be a problem because I’m not reproducing. Another costumer heard her as well and also got offended being the fact we were in basically a child’s establishment. Worst experience ever. Will never take my business there again. If that’s the best they can do with management they are definitely in trouble!

Staff is horrible lanes need to be updated! Had a good time until dealing with Christine. Some people definitely shouldn’t be helping run a business. So disappointed!

Some friends and I went for my birthday to bowl and paid and got our shoes and lane and everything. After we got to the lane, we realized we forgot to ask for the bumpers up, as none of know how to bowl, we just find it a fun activity to all hang out. After going to speak to the desk, I was told that we could not get the bumpers up cause they were only for kids, and there was nothing she could do. After finally trying to convince her to give me a refund, I got one, and took our business elsewhere. Just be warned that they give you attitude and do no accommodate whatsoever.

Have been here in the past but the recent visit was not the best experience. The lanes need some repair or maintenance. They are not as smooth as they were,. However its a good place to come and bond with kids.

First off this was my first visit to this establishment but not the first for my friend who went with me.Right from the start we had issues my friend went over to the juke box to play music and was approached by an older lady trying to tell her she can’t play music the Landy by the way doesn’t work there. Then is approached by an employee who then tells her they arnt supposed to play music on tuesdays and Thursday because of a group of elderly people who rent a few lanes for a league.there are no signs about this and is not fair to the rest of the people who are trying to bowl. Then we ordered nachos they took forever to get and they were stale and the cheese cold. Then we tried to bowl I say tried because the lane we were in was so torn up and old it was hard because we kept Tripping then our lane malfunctions and we called for help and no one came so we finished what we could we couldn’t see the score on our screen and we decided we weren’t staying any longer.

Great bowling alley with nice things and more adult (although kids have plenty to do) than the other one in town (owned by same people). Maybe its the nostalgia of it being around since I was a kid.

Extremely overpriced for a dated bowling alley. Bowling with adults and kids, the bumpers have to either stay up or down unlike newer alleys that you can program bumpers according to bowler. Will definitely not be returning

Review №57

Their hours are wrong on their website and on their signs out front. They advertise that they close at 3am on saturdays and they run a $64 special from 12-3am where you can play for an unlimited amount of time. Went at 12:30 with some friends and we were kicked out at 2am. So, we paid about $10 more than we should have seeing as we only played for an hour and a half thinking that we were gonna be able to play until 3am. I won’t be returing. Will be taking my business to Acadiana lanes which is a lot nicer and updated.
