I recently celebrated my birthday here with my family and manager Jenni and team member Brian made it extra special. Jenni brought me a cookie with a birthday candle, and Brian made an announcement to recognize my birthday which made me feel extra special. I come to Bowlero regularly and this is just one recent example of how the staff are phenomenal and make every visit special. Thanks so much to the LZ Bowlero team!

We had the 2 kiddos in tow for a Wednesday and learned that arcade games at Bowlero are 1/2 priced…read moreon Wednesdays.  Yaay for the lucky kiddos!  Anyway, I also found that the various Bowlero's in our vicinity have different hours on Wednesday, I guess due to local business demand.  This Bowlero opens 1pm-11pm on Wednesday, whereas the Bowlero Mount Prospect opens 2pm-11pm and the Bowlero Niles opens 4:30pm-11pm.  So we trekked up here as the earlier the better it was for us on this hot summer day.   Brian and Chris were the fine and helpful pair of staffers on duty and Brian explained the arcade workings for us as we've never been in a Bowlero (though the kiddos have) - checking the kiddo's card balances, the value of the games, showing us the remaining balance display, unjamming a machine when needed, etc. We had the arcade area to ourselves and the kiddos had an energetic blast for about an hour.  We loaded on $10 for each of them and they also each had about $8 on their existing cards.   So it seemed they spent about $36 in an hour and that seemed a bit expensive to me, especially for a 1/2 price Wednesday.  They did earn some trinklets with their ticket winnings though and these are dispensed from a self-service Prize Hub machine.  For what it's worth I remember getting an hour's worth of arcade entertainment for the 2 at Chuck 'N Cheese for $20, and we now have a basis for comparison anyway.  One of the kiddos said the arcade here is bigger than the one at Niles, and we also heard separately that the Buffalo Grove arcade is quite large also. As far as bowling here goes, they have 40 nice and shiny lanes. Weekday games are $6 and weekend games are $10.  Shoe rental is $6.  I don't see us bowling at a Bowlero but it could fit your family's interest or needs.  I'll go with 3 stars as Bowlero seemed about an average value from this experience, but the kiddos had a grand time in any event.

What a fun idea to have a redhead festival. I think I'd be doing my brethren a disservice by not…read morereviewing the festival. But for me, it was just okay. I think in my head I expected this to be something more. Sure, when redheads pass on the street you give a nod, or silently acknowledge one another. But an entire festival full of gingers? That I couldn't miss. I've always been proud of my hair color because it sets me apart. I was never bullied for it, and as a child I had the bright coppery color that all the old ladies seemed to notice. As I've grown up, it's gotten lighter and is more of a caramel color these days. Still, I'm very fond of it and am happy to stand out. So clearly, I belonged at this festival. But I guess I was expecting something else. I think I'd fantasized something like a dozen gingers running up to me saying, "Grant! You're here! We've been waiting for you." Not really, but I think the point I'm trying to make is that when we're by ourselves, we stand out. We're unique. We're special. But put us all together and we're just another redhead. It's humbling, actually. The festival itself consisted of about 10 booths or so. Mostly alcohol vendors, Yelp, a t-shirt tent, and I think there was carrot cake and popcorn. Aside from drinking (which kind of perpetuates the Irish stereotype, but I digress) there wasn't much to do at this festival other than stand around and talk to or look at other redheads, which got old real quick. No offense to anyone I spoke with. But there wasn't much food, and the entertainment left a little to be desired. I guess this festival just wasn't for me. I hope to see it grow into something amazing in the future.

When driving by it's a rather unbecoming home that is actually the home to over hundreds of sock monkeys. You can either come in and enjoy the activities like build a sock monkey, or shop around and visit the longest resident sock monkey. Or you can go upstairs and visit the museum for a small fee and learn all about the history. You also get the opportunity to complete the scavenger hunt which is no small feat once you start staring at them for a period of time. We had a great time and can't wait to come back and see the new sock monkies that still have yet to be displayed!

When we arrived majority of the lanes were occupied but we were able to get a lane pretty quickly. There is a bar located about 3/4 into the building and a food area at the end of the building next to the aracde. We ordered food: pizza, onion rings, and mac-n-cheese bites. The onion rings we crisp and the batter was not too think, it was just the right amount. The pizze was a thicker thin crust and tasted good. The pizza was tasty which can be hot or miss at a bowling alley. The night was really fun and I am excited about my friend's son and the next chapter of his life.

The next time we're in this neck of the woods we'll be sure to pay this bowling alley and second visit.

I used to go here when I was little. I thought ice skating would be like riding a bike. Nope...not…read moreat all! This was the first time my 6.5 year old son tried it and he was able to use a skate assistant sled. Unfortunately, the usage time is limited for others to use as well. And if a person didn't return theirs in the 20 minute slot, noone bothered going out to get it. So we patiently waited A few weeks later we go back here for a birthday party. I think we had an hour in the room and another hour on the rink. Not bad, but we felt rushed in the room eating & cake. Then, at the ice rink they had FOUR skate assistant sleds for us to use. Now, it's a party with about 20 kids, most of whom haven't skated before. So 'sharing' the sled was an issue. I asked someone that worked there if we could borrow more (because I know that had more & they weren't being used on the other side), but she said we are only allowed 4. Boo!

I came here to try ice skating for the first time in 25 years. Open skating fees and skate rental…read morefees are comparable to other arenas in the area. But, the perk here is that they don't charge more for non-residents to skate, so if you're bringing non-local friends, they won't have to pay more than you (unlike Evanston and other skating rinks). I do wish that they had some sort of pass card though like Evanston and Wilmette rinks both offer. Their website is a bit dated and confusing, but I sent them a message on Facebook to confirm their public skate hours and they got back to me within minutes, which was nice. They also have skate sharpening, which I definitely need before I try skating again (but haven't used that service yet). The rink itself is nice. It wasn't too crowded when I went during the week a week before Christmas, and the skaters I did meet were friendly. The woman at the desk was helpful as well. I'll definitely come back.
