    I was excited and elated knowing Bowlero has opened. It means I get a chance again to take out and play with my balls again. And ya hmmm, funny how when the word "bowling" gets left out of a sentence, people's thoughts goes immediately to the "gutter" LOL. Moving on...Bowlero has occupied the same building of the former "Bowl America", which I have went to bowl many, many times years back. Renovations transpired a facelift on the outside and inside of this building. And from what I understand, more renovations inside are still up the plate, such as... - Addition of an Arcade Station - Addition of Video Boards to the main wall - Closing off the cafe and adding a Bar Station - Addition of High Top Tables to the main floor Exciting times coming for sure and I'd love to be in it. I foresee Bowlero doing big things. So get out here. Grab them balls... bowling balls that is.

    I always forget this bowling alley is here. I met with a Meetup group to celebrate a birthday. All of the lanes stayed full, but we were able to get a lane quickly. We were on lane 2. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, but our bowling balls kept getting stuck which slowed down our game. Several people ordered food in the group. The chili fries did not look appetizing. One person ordered a chicken fajita and she was given 2 steak fajitas. She also ordered a cocktail which she seemed to enjoy fairly well. This definitely is not the best bowling alley I've ever been to, but if someone wanted me to meet them here for a couple games, I'd accept the invitation.

    I will start and say I purchased a Groupon so I didn't get suckered into any bs prices as there is none on the screen at register. Smh. My Groupon was for 2 hours 2 people and 2 shoes for $30 and it was a complete score! ($70 at register before she scanned my coupon) on a Thursday at 1pm. We had a blast!! My daughter and I bowled maybe about 8-10 games in those 2 hours. The pretzels with cheese sauce isn't bad either.

    The total I paid

    We walked up to the bar downstairs. There overall wasn't a lot of people. The bar seats were full,…read morebut it's not like there was a lot of people that needed drinks. We asked for red sangria, and the bar tender told us to try the bar upstairs because she would have to make it and "it would be a little bit" before she could make the drinks. We tried upstairs and they didn't have it either. We came back down and told her they didn't have it either, she told us she would make it for us. She made her version of sangria. Which wasn't too bad. But we seemed to be an inconvenience overall. I don't really have a desire to return to this bar.

    Duck Pinz is a blast! My family and I (three folks total for this visit) had a wonderful time here…read moreon a Friday afternoon. It's a cute location in a cute area; it had such a fun, authentic vibe outside and in. We came in and wanted to get straight to bowling, and the staff member who set us up was helpful and friendly. The alley area is pretty small, as it's only four lanes. But while I'm sure that could be a disappointment on a crowded night, we found the small size to be conducive to chatting with each other as we played. It's definitely different from standard bowling: you don't wear bowling shoes, the pins are attached to strings that pull them up (as opposed to freestanding pins at a standard alley), and you use smaller, hole-free balls. You also get three throws per frame as opposed to two. I'm not good at bowling, and I'm -- so far -- not good at the duck pin variant. But I didn't find it frustrating, just fun to learn and play! I managed no strikes and a whopping one spare, although I did find the advice posted on the walls helped me get a bit better. I think there is a type of person (someone who takes bowling seriously, or maybe too seriously) who wouldn't enjoy this, but it's really entertaining if you can go in with a good mindset. And not having to find shoes or bowling balls that fit is a huge plus. As far as timing, it took us about an hour and 15 minutes to play two full games; we didn't rush, but we didn't daddle, either. They charge by the hour or half hour, and we paid for our first hour then added a half hour to finish out a second game. A couple who came in about halfway through our visit managed to just squeeze in 10 frames in 30 minutes. We didn't explore the (intriguing) upstairs area, but I did get a fabulous drink -- the Saturn -- at the bar. While I felt like the bowling was a little pricey (not unreasonably priced, to be clear, just something I couldn't afford quite as often), I was surprised at the great value of the drink. Plus, it was delicious -- super well-balanced -- and the bartender was lovely. Even outside of the bowling fun, I could see this being a regular hangout for me if I lived in the area. But even though it's more than an hour from home for me, I'll absolutely take family and friends up to visit when I can. It's an awesome place to have in the region.
