The staff was so friendly and professional, making us feel at ease throughout the party! Some tips: I bought an extra hour of time to decorate for a 40th birthday. They give you 20 minutes before your start time to decorate but I went all out with decor so it was worth the extra time! I had a Sunday afternoon party with 60 guests including adults and children. One party platter and 6 pizzas was more than enough to feed everyone and I was able to bring my own cupcakes and pasta salad (you can bring vegetarian options). I covered the bar tab and it really wasn't that bad for a Sunday party. Make a playlist! They can hook up to Spotify so it definitely made the party more exciting with a themed playlist. Tip the staff! They worked hard to help make our day special so we made sure to give them 30% gratuity on food and drink. Wheelchairs can make it through the front door and into the bowling alley! Love the vintage vibe and it's so much cleaner (and not smoky) compared to Saratoga.

I came here for a Boyscout event. I had no idea what to expect. This is an old school bowling alley…read morethat is attached to the former school of the parish. It is a handful of lanes, maybe 8 in total. It felt like stepping back in time. We had the place all to ourselves and it is probably more of a rental than open lane sort of place.

Unfortunately, we will not be returning. While recording my 8-year-old on the zip line, a teenager told their mother we were recording her instead. The mother immediately came up and started yelling at us. I calmly explained that we were only recording our own child, and even offered to get a manager involved. Things escalated quickly when the mom brought her entire family over, threatening to "fight me" -- and I'm currently 8 months pregnant. I repeatedly told her no one was recording her daughter, and when the managers (Carla -- a tall brunette -- and another female manager) came over, I even handed them my phone to show the video for proof. The managers confirmed the misunderstanding, tried to reason with the mother, and ultimately told us she was very rude and kept interrupting them. I want to note that both managers were very kind and handled a tense situation as best they could. That being said, if this is the type of crowd Main Event attracts, I will be avoiding this location in the future.

Pin‑Up Bowl is a small bowling alley with only eight lanes, a big bar, and plenty of seating, and once our leader confirmed the credit card the whole thing kicked into gear with free drinks flowing right away, draft beers and a few cans and bottles and rail liquors, so I grabbed a beer while others went straight for rum and cokes or vodka and cranberry and the like. The food never stopped coming, trays of toasted ravioli and chicken tenders and pizza arriving again and again, and even with ten minutes left in the unlimited window the kitchen was still sending things out, which made the whole setup feel generous rather than timed or stingy. As for the bowling, it worked well enough for a place that has probably been running nonstop for years. Even though I haven't bowled in twenty years I still managed a respectable 125, which felt like a small personal victory. The machinery had the occasional hiccup, nothing dramatic, just the usual quirks you expect in an older alley, like the lane next to us needing to edit their scores a couple of times or a ball getting stuck in the back or a pin landing in the gutter that someone had to kick down manually, all of it adding to the lived‑in charm rather than taking away from the night. It's a neat spot on Delmar, easygoing and unpretentious, and our whole group had a great time, the kind of outing that works because the place doesn't try too hard and instead just lets people relax, bowl a little, eat a lot, and enjoy themselves.

Many decades of coming to many places in the Loop have always been fun, with my kids, and my mom..A lot of the business owners are dear friends for years.. contemporaries. we've fought for a great cohesive community and nurtured it. This woman had gone from being nice and assuring me I was good, to a Jeckel & Hyde thing out of nowhere, contradicting what she'd just said. Threatened me, menaced me. There was no catalyst. We were far away. I understand that people get tired, have bad days, but this was bizarre and highly inappropriate.

It was a bit pricey, $50 for 4 to bowl for an hour. Another $30 to add on another hour. The game went smoothly. Sometimes some of the pins wouldn't be set up right but that was fine with us as we weren't expert bowlers and just there for fun. There were lots of balls to pick from as well and we were all able to find ones we liked. The ball return worked every time. We got a pitcher of beer and some cans to follow up. That service was quick. I didn't go to the bathroom but my friend did and said none of the stall doors in the women's restroom would close and stay locked. There's a pretty big parking lot so it wasn't hard finding a spot to park in. Not sure what bowling costs at other locations in stl but this was a fun spot to come and I would consider coming again.

The pizza was big and actually decent for bar food. Nothing fancy, but greasy in the best way and perfect for soaking up all the liquor before the rest of the night. Prices weren't bad either, so it didn't feel like we were wasting money just stopping through. What really stood out to me though was how different the atmosphere feels now compared to back in the day. I remember when this place used to be PACKED -- more of a club/lounge vibe with DJs, crowds standing around, music going, and a lot more energy. Now it feels way more laid-back and honestly kinda vacant. It wasn't busy at all when we came in. The AC also didn't seem to be working too great because it was pretty hot inside, so we didn't stay too long after bowling. Still, there's definitely some nostalgia attached to this place and I'm glad to see it's still surviving over on Washington Ave.

I would highly recommend and can't wait to come back.
