Bowlero is a huge step up from what Strike Zone used to be. Arcade area has good games and bowling area looks pretty cool with the lighting that they have. Great place to have fun with the family and friends but be prepared to wait longer than an hour for a lane as it does get busy. The reason for the 3 stars has to do with the food area. During the first 30 minutes of bowling I decided to order fries for my son and 45 minutes later we had still not received our fries. My husband had to go and ask and they still had him wait. I shouldve remembered to take a picture but it was not worth it. I know its busy but they should be staffed as they should know people are going to order food and if its small orders they should get them out faster; i work at a fast food restaurant and thats what we do. If you dont mind waiting then itll be fine for you but we didnt like waiting almost an hour for some fries.
Got a deal on Groupon $12 get one $25 Arcade game (50 credits). We bought 4 total, limit 2 per person. We were there for about an hour. Games range from 2 credits to 4 credits. When reloading the card, $5: 10 credits, $10: 20 credits, $20: 40 credits, $50: 100 credits +30 bonus, $100: 200 credits +80 bonus. They had a variety of different games. Mario kart racing, ticket claw machine, bean toss, skeeball, hoops, tomb raider, the walking dead, zombie snatcher, etc...there was also bowling lanes. They charge by the hour.
Great bowling alley lanes are really nice good place to have a fun with a good group of people. I felt. Some type of way about how they push me to the side and Help people that were behind me in line like I wasnt there. I cant say they were racist but I can tell you they didnt help the people that were first in line. They helped who they wanted to and then they took care of what was left me.
Wow! I had not visited since it changed owners. We had a great time! It was so nice that arcade was fully functioning! The atmosphere was great. We enjoyed the unlimited bowling and snacks from taco truck. Saldly it was too late for the full menu. The staff was very attentive.
Really like what theyve done with the place! A lot cleaner, better food, and seems to be much more popular hangout. Trying to get a lane on most nights can take an hour or longer but the staff does a good job at making sure if you put your name down you will get a lane.
Fun place. The lighting is awesome and the new arcade can keep you busy for a couple hours. The food isnt bad either
They took complete care of us for my sons birthday! The food was excellent and they even had candles for the cake... Superb customer service and a great atmosphere.
We were so excited to bowl here and have some family fun, it looks so nice since they remodeled. Unfortunately they are only operating about 1/4 of their lanes (on a holiday weekend, no less) causing “an hour and a half maybe longer” wait. Terrible business practice, we won’t be returning. My kids are so upset, I’m upset, now I have to deal with crying kids on the way home when this was supposed to be a fun time for them..
Pretty slow waiting time, about two hours. So me and my friends literally spent our entire time in the arcade. I liked it when it was Strike Zone, not Bowlero.
Great place Im from Stockton and this was a close place from home and it was fun and everyone was nice the food was great. Need more spots like this. With employees doing there jobs the right way. Loved it here!
Great new owners and very nice remodel and pricesThe batting cage is in a state to where I hope that they get it back running or turn it into else since it is sitting doing nothing
When i lost my a.t.m car it was .never found.. Or returned, arcades are a bit pricey, service left a lot to be desired as well.... The food was good, the place looks amazing, arcades mostly kept up with, only a couple out of service.. And no batting cages, what a shame..... They are there just not being used anymore I guess.... To bad, I give three stars
Great bowling, food is amazing and excellent staff. Frankies Pin up pro shop is a real pro shop too.
Best bowling alley/bar/arcade in the valley hands down! Frankies Pro Shop is top notch.
We went unlimited bowling on Aug. 23 and the machine was having issues all night. They gave us 6 free bowling tickets and a month later, we realized that they gave us expired bowling coupons that were good till 6/30/2019. Should have double checked.
Cool place for our kids birthday party. We chose the celebrity package. Not the high end package, but the service was excellent. The manager took the time to check on us and offer to solve any issues.Drink vouchers for adults offer minimal choices.Food was good.
Sorry but ever since the new management took over and this became Bowlero the wait times and service has gone down the drain...the wait times are extremely excessive and service is terrible... get some good management who can run this place better..shame for Manteca
Had a blast love the new updates to the place. More room and the food was good as well, friendly staff and good service
Went for the arcade for my kids. Their update was nice but shouldn’t have to scream standing right next to them to have a conversation. Noise level was ridiculous.
I took my family on a Saturday morning at 11am and we were told no lanes open until 7pm due to bowling league and other lanes were being waxed. We drove from Lodi. Why would they wax lanes on a SATURDAY. So I had my kids just play video games for a little bit and we left. Doesnt matter how nice the place is if their customer service sucks. We wont ever go back. Next time well go to Elk Grove. They have a AWESOME bowling alley called Pins n Strikes.
I love to come here for my home furnishing needs. Staff is always ready to help me if i need it but also not pushy in their salesmanship. Have come in many times just to browse and have purchased 3 separate times. Very good prices and they are willing to order things not in the store to make me happy. They deliver and set up as well!
They are remodelling so hopefully the place will look better. Right now that place is okay but average-at-best. The drinks are water down and and over priced but the food was good.
Came in for unlimited bowling at 11. Employee said ok, you pay after. After we finish bowling we expect it do be 2 sets of the 13.85 unlimited. (27 total). Employee rings us up for 57$ for 4 games for two people!!!! Ridiculous. Never coming back.
Its a great place to have some fun with your friends
Some games werent working when me and my friends where there. The employees took a long time to help us with our problems or arcade cards. All in all we had a great time. Nice location great place to hang with friends. Lovely decorations and them as well great taste in music.
The place is newly renovated. It is clean. The staff are very friendly. The league secretary, Antonnette, is very accommodating, very pleasant and friendly. They also have a lot of good arcade games. The place is very well kept and clean. We will keep coming back for sure!
Clean place. Fast service. plenty of lanes. Nice security guards and decent food for a bowling alley. Nice outing for the family, even if you cant bowl. . . I cant !
Building looked great and inviting. Arcade is Great. However if I could Rate 0 Stars, I would due to...Horrible Experience! Given Multiple False Wait - Times, waited over 2 hours only to be told Youll get a Lane by the end of the night. There were Lanes open during our entire wait - we could of Bowled and Left. We walked out! This Was our First AND Last Visit. Drove over an hour for this. Servers defiantly need to Smile, they all look miserable.
We made a reservation for one of our friends birthday. It was one of the most memorable experience. The manager was very helpful and welcoming and the staff was ready to help us when needed (provided us plates, spoons, and a lighter, which we forgot for the birthday cake candles!)
Really awesome overhaul of the old bowling alley. food was quick and hot and decently priced bowling alley was very clean and not too crowded. The new balls are pretty awesome as well with two different sizes per ball!
It has 48 lanes. Which is good but, the whole place could use update.
The service here used to be a lot better. The customer service at the bar was s#!t. Waited an hour for someone to bring our 2 pitchers of beer to the table, after checking with the server several times. The food was decent. The rest of the bowling alley is pretty nice.
Really cool place to go bowling. Lots of lanes. Comfortable seating. Great specials. Fun place.
Huge place. Lots of Lanes. Even during league play Ive gotten in for games. Nice staff. Really cool arcade for the kids or kids in all of us . Little pricey per game but there is an experience factor involved with the blacklights and big screens. Im pretty sure they run specials for late nighters. I know a lot of serious bowlers hate on bowlero but you can have fun and be serious.
The arcade and pizza is so much better now. The service was great and even when the staff wasnt helping customers they were cleaning! Great to see that. We will definitely be back soon.
Dan G was an awesome bartender. Excellent service. Appreciate his care for all his clients.
Very nice family fun place with a new arcade area for the kids and the kid in all of us.
New&improved! Theyve updated the seating layout so its spacious and convenient, the booths are comfy and the kiddies will love the new video games. Cant wait to go back! Ery Sunday between 1 n 3. Call and find out why, dont miss out!
Really cool remodel! Looks great!
Arcade games were fun. I left wait time was to long.
Really fun to enjoy with friends,and Good Staffs
Fun but I wish it was still strike zone
Great new remodel but very slow food service. Took us 45 minutes to get a cookie.
Very nice place and good food also
It was great place to have fun with a few friends and family...freat price and great service.
Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. Definitely will go again with my friends.
Clean good staff, unfortunately the wait time is extreme. Maybe next time.
The lane we were at was broken. We asked the staff if they could do anything but they could only reset the lane which did nothing. If we didnt have a broken lane I would rate it with better stars
Cosmic bowling on Saturday nights is awesome. Took the kids there and for $17 a person we got to bowl all night long. The lights were cool and the music was a good mix. The crowd was also good. Not too rowdy and good environment. Food and drinks were good price also. Got a bottomless pitcher of soda for $11
Cant give 0 stars... Manteca bowl/strike zone was amazing, with great prices.. bowlero not so much... Its new and there will be trial and error but the balls arent traditional bowling balls and the staff could use some serious training in engaging customers.. how much does it cost? I dont know... No one mentioned the cost of a game, rather give us a card to keep on file while you bowl and when youre done come up and well charge you for what you bowled... Really.. I dont remember the last time Ive paid close to what I paid for 2 games and shoes for 4 people.. no rant just a informative review and very displeased customer.
Its a family friendly place.
Great drinks, amazing cauliflower bites! had a great time
Bowlero is the place to be! Friendly staff. Very helpful in Frankies pin shop. Great food and great deals!!
This bowling alley is so nice to have a birthday party at. They keep fresh foods coming, black lighting for fun, and ramps for the kids. The arcade can be a bit of a rip off but that is pretty normal these days.
Very nice facility with plenty of clean, modern lanes. Definitely a nice place to bowl.
Nice place to time pass.
Really did a great job with this new alley.... all games work and lanes are amazing.
If I could give 0 stars I would because I have never been treated so poorly at an establishment. I decided to take my best friend bowling for Mother’s Day and we were treated with the utter most disrespect, it was so unfortunate... first when we arrived, the heat must have been on full blast - even though we are in the middle of a California spring time. Weird to have the heat so high when people are being physically active but we ignored it and continued our night. After we got our lane and shoes we decided to order some drinks and we wanted to get their “Dunk Tank.....” and that’s when the customer service went straight out the window. Apparently you can’t order a drink unless you have 4 people drinking it even though the menu did not state it anywhere and you can order as many shots of liquor or as many beers as you want but you can’t order a shareable drink with only 2 people, blew my mind. When we asked to speak to a manager, the girl -who mind you, had to be 20? Wouldn’t even look at us in the face and speak TO us, she just said “no” when we asked why we couldn’t order it. When we decided on another SHAREABLE drink, she ROLLED her eyes and said whatever. WHO DOES THAT?! And then when they brought us our drink, they literally filled the entire thing with ice and it took 2 women to finish a 101 oz $23 drink in maybe 20 minutes? That also straight up tasted like someone poured pepper in it. When the girl brought the drink to us, she slammed it on the table, didn’t say a word to us and walked away to her “manager” and they began laughing and staring at us and pointing at us like we were in the middle of a high school quad during lunch time. Idk who owns this place or who runs it but they need to get their child employees under control because this is a professional establishment NOT HIGH SCHOOL. I wish that we felt comfortable enough to make a complaint to a “manager” but, we knew our complaining was just going to be the hot topic of the evening and they’d just laugh at us so I hope this review finds someone actually in charge so they can re-train or hire some professional workers. So disappointed, BRING STRIKE ZONE / ROOKIES BACK!!!!And all of this on Mother’s Day, a disgrace.
Nice arcade and lanes are good but way too understaffed. Stop worrying about labor and il have more customers and a better future
Great place but need to turn up the ac in the bowling area to hot
Remodeled looks good new games but exspensive
So much fun and atmosphere was amazong
Overpriced for fun activities (not the same as before)
I am in a league there and they are great. Great people. The only thing that I would like is that the food isnt as good as it used to be, due to new owners
Great Food, but bad lanes wasnt getting much help with bumpers for the kids
Nice beautiful place to share with your family
Bartender was very very rude. We (4 of us) ordered the dunk tank and he began to scream at us about their rules and regulations with purchasing the bowl. We were then upset and he told us if we didn’t have a positive attitude he wouldn’t sell us alcohol.
A great place for bowling, and chillin.
Ok so I dont go bowling much. Alright its been years and years, but a lot of aleys I have been to are a bit dark and seem dirty. Manteca bowl is neither, its bright pretty clean, has a good sized gaming area and a large party area that is closed off via doors. Otherwise it seems fairly modern and they have bowling balls that are drilled such that adults can use lighter balls for those of us that dont bowl that often.
Everything you want for an evening with the family, the guys, or the work crew. Food is sub par.
Use to be fun, country night with dance lessons especially. Now? Lol I think they even got rid of a few people when they decided to change.
Batting cages are always broke. Seen an increase in maintenance on the Arcade, so thats good for the kids. Bowling is average, though I havent been to the Cosmic bowl in a long time; Ill update next time I try it. 3 star average experience I would say. Leagues take up a lot of Lanes on good bowl times! Still the only option in Manteca for bowling, so will continue to go on occasion!
Went to Manteca Bowlero today for a last minute party for my daughter. Vanessa E the party planner over the phone was so sweet and set up the party for us last minute. then arriving at the bowling alley Chris the manager was extra sweet and accommodating to me. Made my daughters party super fun. the new look and games is wonderful. the other manager and two staff that delt with my family and party guest were awsome as well. there was only one staff at the end that was not so sweet or helpful but overall chris and his team made the party and experience worth every penny. I will be booking here for every bowling event moving forward. 5+ stars
Clearly the bowling alley is old, but with new management you can tell they are trying to make things better. The staff is really nice and the manager Chris took the time out to talk to me and see how my day was going and welcome me back. He told us that it is changing to Bowlero and we should be seeing many upgrades to come. We look forward to seeing this and cant wait to come back!
Family friendly place. They serve a ton of food if you order so definitely worth the price. Just wish the facilities were a little more up to date.
Its fun and it has an arcade
The new bowlero upgrade is really nice and a lot more open
This is a fun place for the whole family. With an arcade, food and bowling along with a restaurant/ bar all under one roof. Staff is attentive and friendly. Place is clean and organized. Prices are very reasonable.
Well the food was kinda expensive and paying alcohol prices 4 a rockstar and diet soda that cost me $9 and some odd sense and a $14 burger with fries prices can go a little lower would be nice at the end of the night I went out to the truck and put my backpack in the back of the truck and waited for my partner to come out he didnt come out so I went inside and found him in the game room so I went back outside and my backpack was lifted from the back of the truck and gone they got me for two bowling balls and a pair of shoes and miscellaneous items in the pockets and that was the experience I had other than that the bowling was fun.
Over the phone they told is $13 and when we went in person they told us $18
The service was wonderful. The staff was great! A total fun zone!
Best bowling in the area. They have good weekly specials, are never crowded and very clean.
Had a great time recommend for a family outing
Clean. Friendly, helpful staff. They offer military discount
Lots of lanes and very updated with lots of food choices.
Its now all remodeled and its awesome!!!
Fun and happy experience for both adults and children. Clean and awesome experience. Staff was great. Food was good. Lanes were available when we came in. mornings are a Not so busy time.
Very clean environment, better than the Stockton one
Clean place, cool sports bar, arcade for the kids...fun for the whole fam
I will not return. Bad business, bad customer service. I had purchased a groupon for the arcade cards for my children. I called ahead of time as it is an hour drive for us and was told they would honor our expired groupon from April 11th. The manager wouldnt make eye contact and said there was nothing she could do. Not even give me what I had paid. Waste of time and money. I did purchase a dollar card and put $10 on it which was 2 games for my kids, half the arcade games were not even working. Very disappointing.
Lanes are tough if your a avid bowler and want to work on your game best times to bowl early morning or after 9 pm Saturdays they have Monte Carlo its a blast sat mornings they offer a great jr program. For the kids great coaching . Senior leagues something for everybody
Lovely place, clean, friendly staff, lots of Lanes to bowl.
They are getting better... Now they are tranistioning to Bowlero and investing money into the facility its starting to look and feel nice again
No longer Manteca Bowl - this is now Bowlero and they are sure making a difference. We bowl here every Friday night now for the past month and the changes they are making are fantastic. New flooring, new lanes, new games and game area. All new fresh paint on the walls along with very cool screens. Heidi is the best customer service person and thumbs up for Manager Brianna Hardesty as well. The wait staff are all really attentive as well. I highly recommend taking that family and friends and bowling a few games.
Prices are too high when you have a family to try to bowl
It was a nice place
