    I love bowling here! I actually grew up bowling at these lanes, as it was close to my high school; however, I think I have enjoy it now even more as an adult! Bowling here was a great activity during Covid, as it was not super crowded. Most of the evenings we went were on the weekends around 7 o'clock, and we only had to wait about 20 to 30 minutes for a lane. One of my favorite things about this place is that if you need a lighter ball, you can ask the front desk. They keep 8 pound balls in the back-- Super light, but it does not hurt my back (also great for my 81 year olds grandma who still bowls!!) There are also tons of ball options all around the interior of the building. Lots of lanes--24, in fact. It's super casual--kind of has an older bar-like feel. You do see lots of families playing together, teenagers, and an older crowd who are practicing for their leagues. It's not expensive--and it's a great place to just stop in and practice. I wouldn't call this place fancy--but it does exactly what it needs to do without the crazy crowds or prices. Do note that the weekends and anytime they have leagues will be more crowded. Check their website for deals, as one day during the week they have a two hour time slot where you can bowl all you want, as well as get some food. You do have to rent bowling shoes, so don't forget to bring your own pair of socks!

    The place is falling apart and the lanes are in poor condition. The focus isn't on the customer experience and I probably won't return

    Fun bowling with the lights out and black lights on and having essentially half the alley to ourselves. Also good pizza and wings.

The woman kindly said cupcakes were fine and gave us the best hours for our group. I ordered $60 worth of gorgeous cupcakes from Molly's Cupcakes (highly recommend, always stellar) loaded up our cars with gifts and balloons and rolled up to Mason Bowl. Walking in, i saw the sign prohibiting outside food and drinks, and was walking to the counter to make sure we were still good to bring in the cupcakes; there was a male employee (bald, late fifties, miserable expression) who appeared to be in charge. Before i could open my mouth, he said, "You can't bring that in here." "I was just going to ask you about that! We called Friday night to get your hours and the woman told us..." He interrupted me and said, "No one who works here would tell you that." So now i am a liar and a rule-breaker?! "Do you sell cupcakes?" I was prepared to buy them from here if they sold them. It's my friend's birthday, we really wanted him to have the whole experience. He flatly told me NO. I understand how businesses work and they need to make money if they offer food. Totally get that, we support independent businesses and that is why we chose to try this place and also called for clearance. The cupcakes are melting in our trunk and based on the (mis)treatment, this is probably my last visit here. A polite explanation that was accusation-free would have helped. Super disappointed... here is a pic of those beautiful Molly's Cupcakes...definitely check them out!

Pizza is delicious- highly recommend ordering one while you're there. Prices are fair and they offer a kids bowl free program during the summer months. Restrooms are a bit small but work just fine.

I attended a children's birthday party with my two kids, and an overall party of about 16. These young kids were sitting and crawling on the floor as kids tend to do, and I was mortified because the carpet is very gross and unkept. I have a bad feeling it hasn't been cleaned in years. The equipment is dated, no animations or anything to hold the kids' attention on the screens like some of the more modern alleys. There is clutter everywhere, with folding tables, packages, supplies and equipment crammed in wherever open space had been found. The lanes were pretty full during this Sunday afternoon. We had two lanes with little kids (3-6 yo) and adults playing. I saw the ramps that kids can use to roll the ball, stacked in their lounge/bar area. There were two employees behind the counter, very busy serving drinks, food, assigning lanes, shoes, etc. I waited in line to ask about the ramps, and since they were so busy, simply asked if I could grab a ramp for the kids to use. The gentleman that answered me said, "Yeah, go ahead". I went in to get a ramp (about 3 feet tall, large plastic dinosaurs) and a couple were pretty beat up, so I was rearranging them to look for one with no cracks or holes in it. During this I noticed and odd stare from an elderly gentleman wearing an overcoat from about 20 feet away. As I carry the ramp out from their bar/lounge/storage area, his glare intensifies toward me, and I just look at him confused. He said something about knocking people over, but it as loud and I couldn't tell what exactly he said. I looked at him confused and just walked past him to head toward my lane, when he raised his voice and repeated himself (which again, I couldn't hear with pins being knocked down and the ambient noise). I turned and walked back toward him so I could hear what he was saying, then he very sternly announced "I'm the owner!". I said, OK, what's going on? He mumbled something about his staff would take the ramps to us, and I shouldn't move them myself because they don't want anyone knocked over. I'm just more confused because, I didn't knock anyone over, and why's he being so rude. He didn't say "Hi, let me help you with that." Or "Let me get someone to move that for you". Now I'm getting defensive, so I told him I waited in line and asked if I could get this, and was told, go ahead. He asked who told me that, and then said "I'll go talk to him" as if he believed I would appreciate this kid being yelled at or something. He went over and started talking down to the employee, so I followed and just said, I appreciated the staffer's help, and I can move the ramp myself, or if one of them wanted to, great, but I didn't see any problem. The owner gave me another quick explanation that they didn't want anyone to get knocked over, then both stared at me for a couple seconds before I just walked off, still carrying this ramp. I take it the owner doesn't really care about safety, he likely just saw me in the area and wanted to play tough-guy owner. I was annoyed and uncomfortable the rest of the time there, and of course, now all I can see are all several things around the business that the owner should concern himself with instead of worrying about me doing an employee's task after asking to do so politely. Tears in the dirty carpet, rusted ball racks, broken mirror, bathroom in disrepair, no trash can to be found, reset pins button not working on one of our two lanes, and clutter in various places including heavily in the arcade area, where the games have faded screens and are in disrepair. If you want that old, bowling alley atmosphere, try Madison Bowl near Oakley or Stone's Lanes in Norwood.

    Dishonest Staff and Terrible Experience…read more Avoid this place if you value your time and your kids' feelings. I booked 4 tickets for the Holiday Hologram on 12/23/25 at 3:00 p.m. for a family Christmas outing. We drove over an hour to get there, only to be told by a "manager" that our appointment was canceled due to overbooking. The staff then lied to our faces, claiming they were "down to only 3 headsets" and couldn't accommodate us. Meanwhile, we were literally looking past them into the VR room where a family of FIVE was currently playing with headsets on. When I pointed this out, the young girl claiming to be the manager just kept repeating "you're canceled" with no explanation. It was unprofessional, disorganized, and frankly disgusting to lie to a customer in front of their family. My grandson went from being incredibly excited to completely crushed. We are local reviewers and will be sharing this experience with our community. Absolute mess of a business.

They don't tell you that you're half hour would be cut short by answering questions within the half hour. Not worth the money! The management just kept saying oh take it up with verse, they're the provider as if they have no say on what they are hosting in their establishment. Would never come back here again.
