    What an interesting concept! Throw a football at bowling pins while hanging with your friends. Simple and fun but harder than you think. There is a large parking lot for car loads of people so unlimited spaces for all you guests. It was $15/person, you get a lane to play in for as long as you want! You can bring your own food or have food delivered but alcohol has to be purchased there. They have this beer machine that fills your cup from the bottom so there are these signs that say font finger your cuphole that I just cracked up at every time I seen one. The reason is because the port will leak and you will lose all you beer. The staff was friendly, and the establishment was clean, even the bathrooms. we only played two games. My football skills are not like they once were. Great place for any occasion. Reasonable price for a great night out

    Went for a team building event with my colleagues... had a great time! I suck a fowling, but it was a blast to just observe. Drinks were great and the ambiance was such a blast! I did finger the cup hole... and learned why this sign exists! Lol.. my poor friend felt the brunt of my poor choice!

    We had a great time! There were lots of lanes available to choose from. We came for open play, so it was $12 a person, which is pretty reasonable. Having a bar there definitely made it more fun Staff was very nice- even when we accidentally stayed past closing time. This would be a great place to come for an older kiddos birthday party, or even a work event/party.

    My family and friends met me here for my birthday. Never heard of this place or this sport but my sisters really wanted to check it out. We had a group of maybe 20, ranging in ages from 8 to 72. Luckily there was a full bar because this would've been a short lived activity. After everyone played a couple games we made up our own game(s) and just ran around in general. It's worth checking out, but I don't think I'd ever come back.

    Some friends and I went to the Fowling Warehouse over the weekend to check it out and have some fun. We got there around 7:30 on a Friday and we were able to get an open lane right away. They have two sections each with about 18 lanes. We paid at the front and then someone explained to us how fowling works. There's no scoring, just whichever team knocks down all the pins first wins. There are a couple more rules but it's a very basic game and simple enough for anyone to pick up. The actual technique of throwing a football to hit the pins is a little more tricky, especially once there are only a couple pins left! We all had so much fun, even though it's not always easy as the football can bounce unpredictably at times. There is a large bar on each side of the hall and we never had to wait for drinks. They are a little pricey ($7 for a Tito's and soda) and can definitely add up quickly. Pro tip: keep an eye on your drinks and put them in a safe spot - we had multiple casualties from drinks being hit by footballs! The people working were friendly and quick to mop up the spilled drinks. There is plenty of seating in the bar areas if you want a break or if you bring in food. I had so much fun fowling and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to do something a little different with a group of friends. It was awesome to see the diversity of people all playing this silly game and having a blast.

    A large group of us came to open Fowling and really enjoyed it! The staff is very friendly and the place is setup nicely. There are tons of "lanes" and 2 large bars on both sides of the warehouse. Thy advertise that you can bring your own food or order delivery. We noticed a lot of people having pizza dropped off while they were playing. They take pride in having 150 types of beer and they also have large TVs to watch the games while you play. Overall, this is a new concept that finally made its way to Grand Rapids! Give them a shot.

    I had such a fun time at the Fowling Warehouse! There are a two side of the facility and each side has around 14 lanes. The prices were really affordable, they have a nicely stocked bar, good drink selection and all though they don't have food you can order or bring food in. The space is great for kids and adults, the rules are super easy and the lanes are not too far from each other so even a non skilled thrower can hit some pins! I recommend this place for a group get together spot.

We wanted to watch the playoff games that were happening that night and thought a sports bar would be a good choice for doing so. There were tons of TVs and the place seemed a little empty, but that could be due to weather. We had already eaten a delicious dinner and weren't really hungry but were down for a nightcap. We sat at the bar, the place was not busy for a Saturday night. We needed a waitress to get the bartender to even talk to us and take our orders, as our attempts at waving him down failed. When I tried to order an espresso martini, he said, "We don't have espresso but I could make you a coffee martini, but please don't make me go and make coffee for you". I've been on the receiving end of late night orders that cause you to dirty up appliances you have shut down for the night, but this order was at 9:30 pm and they closed at midnight. I decided not to order it since he stated he didn't want to make it for me and decided on a mocktail since my choice of cocktail was vetoed. I understand his response if it was close to closing time and I also wouldn't have ordered that close to closing time. I ended up getting a mocktail called the "Midwest Fog" and it was unique and tasted good but my partner and I were taken aback and annoyed over our encounter and treatment.

    I think they forgot the "b" in the name…read more Since we live in Ada, we were understandably excited to have another potentially good place open nearby. We visited not long after they went live in 2021. It was busy inside and the service was understandably slow. I got the "Homemade Chili", which was apparently made in a condemned home because it was barely room-temperature. I sent it back and had to press my case to get that bacterial culture of a dish taken off the bill. My "Garage Burger" had a bun that was so stale, it clanked when I hit it against my plate. My beleaguered waitress stared at me when I did this and asked, comically, "do you want a new bun?" Why yes, yes I do - preferably one that can't be sharpened into a prison shank, my dear. As the volume in the place progressively increased, I watched another family with younger kids struggle with similar food issues. The dad at that table looked at me knowingly with something akin to PTSD in his eyes and then he abruptly plunked down some cash and gathered his family up and walked out. I paid with a credit card, so it took me a bit longer, but we all left without finishing our meals. I'm not going to say that the food here is a crime against humanity, but I'm going to think it really hard.

Talk about DISAPPOINTED.... Partner agreed. Won't be returning. The food quality downhill, which is sad, since the Brann's family all but retired now. Different mgmt. running the place.

    I visited Uccello's during a work trip, and it really hit the spot when we were craving Italian…read morefood. The concept was a pleasant surprise, it has more of a sports bar atmosphere than a traditional Italian restaurant, but they still offer a solid selection of pastas, pizzas, subs, and other comfort food favorites. They also have a full bar, making it a great place to catch a game. We started with the pepperoni rolls, and they were easily the highlight of the meal. The garlic butter and Parmesan on top made them absolutely irresistible, definitely a 10/10 appetizer. For my entrée, I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken. The chicken was well-seasoned and had a nice crispy exterior that added some texture to the dish. The Alfredo itself was good, but fairly standard and nothing particularly memorable. The garlic bread was also solid and complemented the meal well. While this isn't the best Italian food I've ever had, it was satisfying, reasonably enjoyable, and exactly what I was looking for that evening. I'd happily come back, especially for the lively sports bar atmosphere and those pepperoni rolls.
