Bear's Den / Meadow Lanes

Very pathetically run business if you would even call it that. called to book two lanes for bowling.. manager informed us it’s all booked up… we get here no lanes in use our entire time of being here. 12 people using one pathetic destroyed lane. Ordered the greatly raves about pizza from the bears den side.. and stale, hard and very minimal toppings for the price. Our juice and pop were filled with stale mildewed tasting ice— our cup have 4 bugs in them I have a video and photo of the facility and bugs in cups. The hostess was extremely pathetic and lacked in all aspects and responsibility’s of her job. We arrived and the restaurant and bowling alley had no one in it. We had asked for a pitcher of water and her reply was “I’ll give it to you when I have the time” in an extreme attitude. We also have this on video. Very poorly ran. I do not recommend this place for anyone in town or coming into town as we are, the establishment has some pretty neat features with decor on the restaurant side, but over all very filthy. I wish I could give it a negative 5 stars. The only upside about our visit is it is child friendly.

Didn’t even wanna give this place one star…. The atmosphere is cute and charming; the only reason it deserves a star. The staff working here are very ignorant, had no greeting when my family and I came in she only slammed down a clipboard and said names. We wanted to get some lunch and play a few rounds of bowling…there being 13 of us we asked for another lane and we’re told they were booked upbeen here for an hour and a half we have been the only people in here apart from a couple that bowled a quick round. The service was terrible, no one is ever behind the counter, received multiple rude looks and snarky comments. She perceived herself to be way busier than she was…..needless to say I will never be coming back to this establishment. Nor would I recommend anyone being their families here till they hire staff equipped to provide basic customer service. So I started out as in a way you can write a review

Food was Really good, sorry forgot to take pictures , visit yourself you will not regret.

Terrible lasagna - layers of plain pasta - yuck. They also forgot our salad dressing after all the toppings were on. Only people in the entire restaurant and they made no attempt to fix our orders. Maybe the cooks should turn their cell phones off when they are preparing other people's food!

Must be nice to open and close as you please. Had family coming for Easter weekend but was told that because Friday was a holiday that they were gonna just close all weekend. No wonder nobody shops or spends money in this town and always goes out of town for things to do.

Terrible experience. The girlBrenda ignored me upon arrival. She didn't ask if we wanted drinks until we were ready to order food. She did not ask once how the food was or if we needed anything else. I asked for a poutine/dry ribs and all I could taste was burnt oil from the deep fryer I'm a chef and the Ceasar salad had no dressing on it it was just leaves, croutons stimulated bacon bits, Parm and a lemon wedge. The meat in the burger I ordered was over salted and with the salt from the cheese, bacon and all the sauces it was almost unbearable. We were sitting afterwards having a conversation and she walked up and put the receipt on the table before we were even done dining. 1/10 stars for professionalism. The people at this establishment should take some sort of training before they're hired because I've never had a dining experience like this in my life and I've eaten at a lot of bad places in the past.

Fantastic home cooked food. Fresh hand breaded Chicken Cordon was amazing and the Bear burgers are enough to fill you up. The pricing is way low for what you get. This is an actual family restaurant like we had before big chains took over the world!

Pretty solid joint! Big proportions and good food. They also got billiards if you don't want to bowl, speed and service was also great. Lots of variety to choose from and the bear theme is very cool.

I am not food critic, but Caesar salad in plastic bowl with artificial bacon and no cheese. Really??? Ribs never touched a grill, they are slow cooked. Well I gave 1 star because there is a nice bear rug in the restaurant. Avoid this place. BP is way better

The best comfort food in town. If you're from here there is no other place to get lumberhouse food. If you know you know. Ham, chicken and cheese with fries and meat sauce for me. Extra mayo on the sandwich. Word.
