TL:DR- the bartender was ABSOLUTELY out of line and wouldve been fired if it was my employee. The management didnt seem too concerned about her actions. Long story: I went to fetch 2 beers. First time in, the bartender played on her phone for 5 minutes, then went into the kitchen. Didnt even notice I was there. So, I left to bowl a frame. Come back a second time. Asked for two beers after finally being noticed. She said ID was needed by both people. Ok, no problem- let me go get him. Third time in we both showed ID and asked for a beer. "Stout please" I asked. "Which one?" "The one on the left" I responded. "I dont know which one because its new" while mumbling you f****** d****" as she poured it. She rang us up for 19.48. Her unprovoked and unprofessional attitude warranted nothing more for a tip other than the change. I told her to keep it, so she gathered it up AND THREW IT AT ME. Seriously? I asked for a manager over her actions. He seemed to not be too concerned over the situation. "Ill review the video tape and look at her body language" to which he never came back when we were there there for another hour. Its almost as if he sided with her over this. Being a business owner myself, this would ABSOLUTELY be a termination over the way she acted towards a client if one of my employees did this. Completely unacceptable. Understanding that what I received was completely not my fault, I went back in and told her that whatever issues she has in her personal life is effecting her, to not take it out on other customers...... And she STILL defended what she did as if it was justified. Blown away. Just blown away.

Honestly this place gave me the creeps. First thing I noticed is how many sketchy people were just sitting in their parked cars in the parking lot... maybe they were waiting for the casino portion of FLB to open? Anyway, it didnt give me a great initial feel. Walked in and was ultimately confused with the setup. This place shares a building with a bar, a casino, a barber shop and a bowling alley, but they all have different hours and there is really no sign or person to help you decipher when each individual place opens or what actual services they offer. I found myself standing in the middle of their establishment with no idea where to turn. The inside is pretty old and drab. You also get a full view of the back of their snack bars kitchen almost as soon as you walk in. There is no barrier, so a young kid could literally just bolt into the kitchen under the nose of the kitchen staff. We walked in to check it out and immediately walked out because of the crappy setup and vibe. I gave it more than one star only because the food did smell good and it looked like the few families that were there were having fun bowling. Still, not my scene or a place I would feel comfortable bringing kids-- but to each his own I guess. I can respect that there may be some people who like the idea of a place like this, Im just not one of them for the reasons listed above.

I was a league member going with my wife and three girls. I would spend 80 to 100 dollars a week there, but all of a sudden they told me I could not bring sealed bottled water in because of the health department. I called the health department and they knew nothing about it. The staff was rude, and embarrassed my whole family. And now I get a letter in the mail saying I owe them 113 dollars. Not going to happen. They wanted me to drink water out of their dirty cooler which anyone could stick their hand inside of it. The staff and Folsom Lake bowl should be embarrassed of how they run that business.

I love FLB, the place has undergone some great changes over the years for nothing but the better. The bowling alley can be pretty busy at times but they usually get you a lane as quick as possible. The sports bar has changed dramatically over the years and now has a ton of TVs. Its great for sunday football or UFC fight nights as just about any seat gives you a great view. They have some great bartenders that are very friendly and have a great attitude, something that you dont get just everywhere. The food is pretty good, prices can be a bit high but its not bad for bar food.

The place was nice but the staff overcharged our party. We came in before 6 pm and reserved a lane with a quoted price of $15/hr. Another lane opened up and so they gave it to us forgetting to tell us that the rate on the new lane was $25/hr. When the error was discovered, the person at the register informed us that there was nothing he could do and would not allow us to speak to a manager. They should have informed us of the price difference or accepted the loss which was their own fault. Very disappointing.

This place has an interesting identity crisis. It is most notable for its bowling alley, but adjacent to it is a seemingly fully stocked bar and carnival-esque play area. These are not bad things, but I usually see them in separate venues rather than within the same complex. Either way, this is a great place to get friends together and drink beers over bowling

The casino isnt the gamble... its if the arcade machines are going to eat your money or not. About half the machines are our money and the staff acted like it was a burden for us to ask for our money back. Very unprofessional. Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere else for family fun. This place has really gone down hill.

Ive been coming here for years. Management and staff is on point and always friendly. Theres a lot to do under one roof. Get a top notch haircut from Luckys Barbershop, go bowling, play blackjack and poker, get some good food, and of course get a few drinks, play pool and watch whatever game you want.

Good drinks and Sunday Funday is always a great time. The service is good and the staff is very friendly. Cecilia is so-so as a bartender, but I think she could probably use a frontal labotomy or maybe shock therapy. The poor dear seems to have some severe mental issues.

This place is surprisingly popular and gets packed most weekend nights! The nightlife in Folsom isnt overwhelming, but it has become a popular place to hang out. If youre going to take your kids here, its probably best to do so on a weeknight.

Bowling alley is very dated. Graphics on the monitors are old and cheesy. Number of lanes are limited and it can get really busy with long waits. Try driving a bit more and go to Strikes in Rocklin.

Ive been going here since I was a kid. Has that old school bowling alley feel, which is just perfect, but all the modern amenities youd expect. Great beer selection and tasty bar food too.

Its great during the day and for special events, but it has a very specific crowd at night that is not worth it. Theres a lot of "bros" and it gets pretty trashy

Just an all around fun place to be! So many activities here all the time. Kids can bowl and parents can gamble or hang out in the over 21 "adults only" area...
