At first blush, it looks like a beautiful place but upon closer examination it is clearly not maintained properly. I nearly fell across the foul line several times because the approach was sticky and no amount of rubbing made it better. It also appeared as though the lane hadnt been properly oiled so the ball didnt react as expected. We gave up on bowling after just one game because it wasnt worth the high price tag per game for such a poorly maintained lane, and we decided to play pool instead. Unfortunately, the one pool table on the premises was one of the worst Ive ever played on. One of the corner pockets literally lifted up from the table when we took a ball out and another pocket had a wrinkle directly in front of it that may have interfered with play. The table was filthy, and clearly hadnt been brushed for a very long time because it was covered in debris and dirt. Also, its located out in the open in the middle of the establishment and people who were waiting for lanes kept getting in the way. There wasnt a piece of chalk in the place for the cues, and it was desperately needed. There were only two pool cues on hand so we had to keep sharing them back and forth. Despite all those issues, we werent given any deal on the $15 hourly pool charge. The only reason Im even giving the place two stars is because I liked the screens across the alleys and the arcade looked cool. I wouldnt go back to either play pool or bowl, but I might try the arcade if I have nothing else to do on a weekend

Went here Saturday night and was incredibly disappointed. Upon arriving around 9:30pm at the front desk, we were ignored by all 3 employees for about 5 minutes. They did not even acknowledge our presence, but werent too busy to do so. One was on the phone, but hung up within seconds our arrival, the second was cleaning shoes but looking out in our direction (we were literally standing in front of both) and the third came out from the back, spoke to the two girls and went away. Finally we were told there werent any openings until 11. We decided to go to the arcade for a bit and then hit the bar. The arcade was the only decent part of the night. The bathrooms were filthy and had no paper towels. We waited at the bar for about 15 minutes of being ignored completely, and decided to head back to the front around 10:15 because the place had cleared out a ton and there were at least 6 lanes open at this point. Again, we were not greeted, but my husband just asked the girl who was standing there if we could get a lane now since it was emptying out. She looked him up and down and hastily told us they had "at least a 10 person wait list." We looked around, and there was literally one guy sitting on a chair with his coat on waiting for something. Everyone else was bowling, and there were 7 people sitting at the bar, 6 of them were part of couples and the 7th was sitting with one of the couples. It was clear that, for whatever reason, they did not want our business. Very disappointing.

Every five seconds they asked me if I paid my tab yet. It took us a half hour at the bar to order anything because nobody came over or paid attention when we tried to call them over. The bartender tried to force me to pay before the food came, then gave me an attitude when I told her Id pay when the food got there. She got in my face and accused me of calling her shady. After that we were completely ignored at the bar and it took us 30 minutes to order another drink. Once we got a lane the waiter came over once and I had to chase him down every time we wanted something. When we were done bowling and walking to the register we were again harassed about our tab and whether it was closed out yet. We wont be going back.

I really want to give Bowlmore more stars. The place is nice and clean, the bowling is fun, the arcade area is good, and to be honest, the food is shockingly good, with amazing variety. The problem I have is the cost. I took my wife and nephew to bowl 2 games and have 3 appetizers and 3 sodas. The bill was well over 100 dollars. We couldnt believe it! Maybe Im just behind in the times, but its just not an affordable option these days for less than an hour of entertainment.

$2 game, yet the shoes are $12. Who charges that much for shoes? Rather go to AMF than this place again. They actually do the $2 game and $2 shoes. Sucks because my husband and I go every week and we thought this was closer AMF to us. BTW- The food was also nasty and overly priced.

Seemed like a great atmopshere, nice waitresses and stuff. I was on a date there, my date got a diet coke and I got 2 heinekens and we played 3 games. the bill came out to 78 dollars! We were there maybe an hour and a half. I guess bowling is a rich mans sport now.

The staff is so disrespectful! I have a cupom and on this cupom didnt say anything about when I could use! Only said that I could NOT use an event group! When I got here they said if I got earlier I could use. WHAT????????????? So they say when I can use or not?

Great experience. Ridiculously outrageous pricing. $6 for Shoes, $9 per game bowling. 2 kids and 2 adults over $80 dollars with Cokes for ONE game. Again, not commenting on lanes or service, which were good, price seemed absolutely absurd.

The alley is great for a little escape, offering a wide array of snacks and drinks. The only drawback, at least on my visit, was that the bar was not taking cash for drinks- which was odd. All in all a good time and very clean overall.

Fancy alley, lots of big projector screens and music playing. The game interface is pretty advanced and tells you which pins to aim for with clear and descriptive graphics. The food and drinks were expensive but delicious.

I love this bowling alley. Great atmosphere, nice staff. Food is good. Staff is also very accommodating. I had a birthday party here and adjustments were made to enhance our time.

Nice place, went for a corporate team building/celebration and the staff was excellent. The managers on staff kept checking in to make sure we had everything we needed.

Richie Martini

The lanes are not well maintained, the approach to the four line is not the tiniest bit slick. A little overpriced but the arcade is very nice

This places was recommended. Ample bowling lanes and good food selection. We went on a weekday but found the staff were in limited numbers.

Nice place to bowl. Went for a birthday party for a friend. The food was ok, dont expect too much at a bowling alley. Good event.

Lanes were way over oiled and the food service was terrible. Everything was wrong and took too long to arrive. Go elsewhere.
