Great place to bowl. The day we went it wasn’t too busy and we were able to bowl right away. Price wasn’t bad and their staff was friendly. 

It’s also a great place because they have pretty much everything there bowling, mini golf, arcade games, pool tables and a casino so you can do a bunch of stuff on the same night. 

The place was clean and the arcade side is not busy at all so you aren’t waiting at all to play games.

Extremely disappointed with our experience here. Reserved two lanes for a Friday night. When we arrived it was about 10 minutes to our bowl time which we thought should leave us plenty of time to grab our shoes and get started. There was a long line up, two people working the computer/shoes and many other employees aimlessly walking around. Could possibly get another till to expedite the long line issue. We finally got to the lanes and our systems weren't ready for us to set up, so had to walk back up to the front desk to request they do this... by this time is was 10 minutes passed our bowling hour had started! On one lane, we didn't even make it through the first frame and our lane was already getting stuck. This happened FOUR Times before we were even on frame 3. When we went up to inform them of the lane getting stuck again, the employee actually accused us for the lane breaking down, saying it was because we were bowling it too soon.... I thought this was a ridiculous accusation and ignored it. On my turn, the lane got stuck again after my first throw so it proved that it wasn't me 'bowling it too soon', went up to inform them AGAIN that the lane was stuck and the same employee was argumentative saying it was my fault why it was stuck. This was now the fifth time and they finally only then gave us the option to move lanes. As we were bowling with friends we had to move our whole party (with children I might add) As compensation, they gave our one lane 10 extra minutes due to inconvenience and shut our other lane down when the hour was up. All in all we didn't get to bowl together as a group and we were not offered a refund when we asked because we barely got to bowl and paid full price. We didn't even make it through one and a half games in the hour.....! I would not recommend this place to anyone if you actually want to bowl:(

The balls here are god awful. Service is good though price is normal. Typical bowling lane, but again balls are not good.

Nothing like paying for bowling and not being able to bowl 🤦🏼‍♀️

We had a baseball tournament celebration where people came from out of town. The place looks great. We were excited for some drinks, snacks, glow bowing and fun competition. But after the first person went, the pins got stuck. We went to get help, and the employees said "oh it's just delayed". After the second person bowled it wouldn't move, they came to reset it. The guys were on frame 6 before we even completed the 2nd frame. After complaining and asking for help 4 times, they finally moved us. That lane was not working either. You'd knock pins down, it would reset and all the pins would come back but if you knocked the standing ones over, you'd get a zero. So we needed to ask for help 3 more times because of the lane, and the scores not calculating. The guys were into their second game before we even hit frame 6. We stood waiting for help, but they were busy, and were told to find someone with a walkie talkie... which we couldn't. After waiting another 10 minutes we asked for the manager, Eric, because we couldn't even bowl, the hour was pretty much up, and the staff was way too swamped to even look at us. We asked for a refund, he said yes, then changed his mind and said he would only give us a refund for 10 minutes since we only had 10 minutes of our time left, and "it's like going into a store, consuming something, and then asking for your money back. You can't do that". We asked why we were being punished because the staff was unable to help us, he said we weren't being punished, we just weren't getting a refund and he would talk to his staff after and we really should've just come to him sooner. $114 for 2 lanes, including shoes, and we had the worst time. He finally agreed to a partial refund "but we don't do this, how about you guys come back at a different time so we can take care of you better instead of a refund". When he agreed to the refund, they shut the guys lane down too and wouldn't let them finish their time... but wouldn't refund us for their time lost. 

It's bowling. I don't expect much. But if your lanes aren't working,  your staff isn't equipped to handle it, you blame your customers, and don't offer a solution, you're a crappy establishment who needs to pick their game up. Super disappointed. We were planning on competing, and ordering more drinks but they clearly didn't want our business. Next time we will head to a bowling alley that has The basics figured out.

Arcade, Bowling alley etc. There is a main problem of when you go to a lane and then a employee will come up to you and tell you to move to a different lane since apparently people on wheelchairs have the right to take the place of anyone already on the lane. My friends and I have had to move 3 times due to this and ultimately decided to leave. I would recommend the Chinook Bowling Alley instead.
