I am an active bowler and have worked at a bowling center in the past and I can appreciate that its not a cheap sport and can understand charging $5 a game in some scenarios, however, this center has no business charging anywhere close to that. While they do have automatic scoring their system is ancient with flickering monitors and even with just 3 lanes operating you could hear the constant squealing of unoiled machines. I had stopped here planning on bowling for a few hours and after my third game I had enough and decided to leave -- and Im extremely glad that I did when I found out that my bill was $16 for those 3 games! I ended up going to AMF Centereville Lanes and had an absolutely enjoyable experience and for only $10 to bowl for 3 hours. If youre looking for somewhere to bowl I would recommend you drive a few extra miles to another center and avoid this one if at all possible.

We had 9 people to play originally and the rep told me we could have an extra lane when we have 10 or not people when I asked for 3 lanes. So, I brought a person and asked for another lane, then the same rep said he never mentioned exact number but you can have another lane when I have 12 or more people. WHAT A LIER thinking Im a dumb or something? Smh. Im not coming back to this old country style bowling place with WORST service Ive ever had. ALSO, the balls are not coming out. The lanes I had were 19 and 20. Literally, this place just sucks from its service to everything else lol. Enough said.

This bowl America is ridiculous and not in a good way. I called the day of with hours in advance of when we were to go bowling. About 15 of our friends were joining us so I asked to reserve lanes. The man I talk to on the phone asked for a $50.00 reservation fee. This is outrageous all the years Ive been bowling never have I had to pay a reservation fee. How I fixed this problem. I called the bowl American in Manassas on Mathis Avenue. They did not ask for a reservation fee. They were the kindest helpful people. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AT BALLS FORD ROAD BOWL AMERICA!

Bunch of shady a$$ mother suckers with no idea whats going on. Treated us like lepers bc one of our party got sick in flu season! HAD 7, YES SEVEN "security officers" stop us on the way OUT!!!!! Only to call the cops on us?! Super glad we spent $500 dollars here. What a complete waste! And we were treated like complete trash! Would never go here again. Ever. Ever.

Based on the reviews we were not expecting much of an experience, but to our surprise, a Saturday afternoon with the toddlers was extremely enjoyable! Great snack bar, with plenty of options on food and drink. Friendly check in staff, very accommodating for family fun! Great memories for our two 1st time bowlers! Thanks Bowl America!

This place is garbage. If you have somewhere else to bowl, do yourself a favor and go there. The shoes and balls are trash, they wont let you use slide rite bc they believe it will damage the lanes, which is bull, and the bar cuts you off way too early. The staff isnt very friendly either. Not an enjoyable experience at all.

Kids love birthday parties here. Im not really a bowler but the staff is very nice. Its not really my kind of place but everyone seems happy there when Im there. Losses a star for cleanliness and food quality but it is a bowling alley...so if you like to bowl, I think this is a pretty good place.

It is your standard bowling alley. Nothing feature packed or extravagant here. Great place to take kids for an affordable and fun evening. Just make sure it is not a league night as they do not have any available lanes those nights.

Great deal Monday nights for All You Can Bowl! Never had a problem here! Love their French fries! Not the cleanest but what can you expect from an old bowling alley where everybody touches everything.

A great rainy day activity for the kids. I took my three year old and ten year old. We had a great time. The place is clean and the staff is friendly and helpful.

Everything is old, but the beer is cold and the lanes (mostly) work, and $6 all you can bowl is great deal any way you slice it.

A nice and well maintained bowling environment. With food and rental shoes, as well as a shop for the more experienced folk.
