The staff, particularly the Co-Manager Elise, are friendly, welcoming, and efficient. Elise was very accommodating during a lane breakdown during league play and extremely attentive to our needs! Very Grateful!! read more

A non-friendly staff they're making changes and not for the better.. they keep it pretty hot in the Bowling alley and sweat your ass off trying to have fun... to change the menu I don't think for the better... doesn't look that clean in the kitchen read more

Everyone here is lovely! They're very helpful and fun! I've joined a league thanks to Ariana and Tony who work there! I always enjoy coming here! read more

Harley's Simi Bowl - Bowling Near Me - Simi Valley, California

They have two options for how you can basically play a game here. The options: $60 for an hour of unlimited games (not sure if they still charge the $5 on top of this for shoes or not) or $8 per person per game +$5 extra for shoe rental per person Anyways, this place was pretty fun and nothing really special. Their bathrooms were clean, their employees were nice, and the lanes were well taken care of, so there are no complaints here. I will definitely come back again because it was fun and seemed reasonably priced in comparison to other places. read more

Harley's Simi Bowl - Family Doubles League! - Bowling Near Me - Simi Valley, California

This location is easy to find and has ample parking. Upon entering I was greeted by the staff. Despite not having any reservations, I was given a line right away. My kids and I had a great time. I would definitely return to this location. read more

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel like other parents deserve to know what I went through a couple of weeks ago. I tried booking my son's birthday party online here and honestly it was a nightmare. The system kept freezing, nothing was easy to find, and it felt like there were a million steps just to get through the process. It was super frustrating and honestly stressful when all I wanted to do was set up a fun day for my child. After wasting way too much time online, I gave up and called the bowling center to see if I could just book over the phone. Nope. They told me they only take online reservations. At that point I was done. If the website doesn't work right, they should at least let you call and book with a real person. I ended up taking my business somewhere else that made it quick and simple. Parents already have enough on their plate without fighting through a broken booking system. Definitely wouldn't recommend unless you want the same headache I went through. read more

We've been bowling in leagues that Harley Simi for 10 years now. You couldn't recommend them any more. Tony and the rest of the crew are amazing and take care of their leagues like no one else. read more

Cosmic bowl was awesome but MIA was exceptional! We ordered our food from her Whatta pleasure she was. Great attitude super helpful. Just an awesome chick. Pizza was bomb too! read more

The female bartender at the bar is evil. Horrible customer service. Ripped my drinks out of my hand that I paid for! Ridiculous. She should be fired. Every time I go, I try to have an open mind, but every time she never fails to piss me off. read more

The female bartender has been rude to us every single time we have been there. She literally snatched mine and my friends' drinks out of our hands without saying anything to us first. so rude and cranky read more

Walked in to get a pretzel. Pretzel was good, cold in some parts. But I tolerated it because I don't expect mush from a snack bar at a bowling alley. I walked the around to check the place out to see if it would be a good place for a date. Some man named Troy approached me about him going into the lady's restroom. He seemed off so I started to walk away from him and he followed me. I could not leave the place fast enough. I don't know if he was a customer or an employee but watch out for Troy the creep. read more

Very fun bowling, when you get to the arcade, the key master machine is rigged with a little give in the bottom at the key is not 90 degrees so it's impossible to win. read more

Harley's Simi Bowl - Rigged key - Bowling Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Great family fun and wonderful costumer service. Enjoyed family and friends time. Pizza was great!!!

We had such a great time here for my daughter's birthday party! Our party hostess was on top of everything, from setup to drinks to bringing out coins for the arcade. When we arrived half an hour before the party, the tables were all decorated and ready for us to set out cake and snacks. The pizza came out on time during the party, and it was really good. The kids all had so much fun bowling and playing in the arcade. We would definitely recommend Harley's for your next party for kids. read more

They are very pleasant people and very accommodating. My daughter is vegan and she was allowed to bring her vegan food. Thank you.

** I have updated this review for clarification. ** Their bowling alleys used to be fun and accommodating. But beware... they have now implemented this ridiculous rule that you can't bring "ANY" type of food or drink into the building. This includes a plain old water bottle, or your own water from home! You can't even bring in a candy bar from home! Why? They won't tell you. They will just remind you with their warnings that are plastered on every entereance to the building. As they have told those who bowl there regularly, we are welcome to purchase a bottle of water from their machine at the reduced price of $1.00 per bottle. Costco sells the same thing for 25 cents. Or you can get a small cup of water for free from their Igloo jug in the bar. Sodas, and other drinks and snacks, from the machines average around a few bucks each. I've bowled at this house, and Camarillo for over 20 years and never have they ever mentioned such an insane policy or told people directly that they could not bring in a soda or water. When it was mentioned about the choices they offer and reasons why the new rule does not make sense, it seemed as though there was some understanding. But that was short lived and the enforcement was reiteratted. Apparently communication and compromise is not something the owner's understand. I can understand not allowing outside food. But it would be nice if there were more food options available at the alley besides $35 pizzas and $12 french fries. In addition, the drink choices are minimal. Not everyone likes Pepsi. And there are only a handful of non-alcoholic drink options, that all include Pepsi products. Not everyone drinks alcohol. And some people don't even like drinking plain water. With the choices offered, some may not be able to drink anything they have to offer. And what about someone who has special needs? Can babies have their formula if their parents bring them along while bowling? Can a toddler have a juice box? Not according to the new rules! I would remind the owners: League bowlers pay $20 - $25, or more, a week in fees for league bowling. Many purchase food and multiple bar drinks. On top of that, add the cost for practice games and just bringing the family to bowl. Multiply that by the hundreds of league bowlers throughout the week as well as the casual bowlers who visit daily and pay upwards of $35 an hour to bowl and you have and ask yourself, Is it worth risking alienating your customers and incurring a possible loss in your primary revenue just because you can't be flexible over someone bringing a soft drink from 7-11? A drink that you, most likely, don't even offer. And not allowing someone to bring their own water bottle from home is just ridiculous! It just makes it look like you are nickle and diming your customers. And that typically doesn't work out well in the end. It would be in the best interest of the owners to be upfront with their customers. Why are they implementing this policy? Is there really a huge problem with people bringing in outside food? Are they bringning in their own alcohol? Whatever the case is, let the customer know to help them understand. But also think about how to prevent those issues by offering better choices and prices instead of strong-arming everyone into compliance just because of the faults of a few. read more

We had an awesome time here! I it's a little pricey but not too crazy, but that should be expected. They have great customer service ! Staff was amazing and super friendly. We would come back again in a heartbeat read more

Great spot to bowl...kinda pricey but a good local atmosphere. Nothing fancy. We payed for 3 games for 3 people on a Saturday around 3:00pm. Was cosmic bowling at the time. Total cost with shoes was approximately $85. read more

We needed something to do with the kids and thought why not bowling. We looked up bowling In Simi and had no idea this place was around. Booked my lanes online. When we arrived it was not busy at all for a Friday night. Staff was friendly place was clean. I think we found our new cousin night spot for the kids. Recommended for sure read more

So glad they survived the pandemic, and wish I had been a more regular customer beforehand! Took the family here last week and my kids had a blast learning how to bowl. Everything was nice and clean, staff was friendly, great beer selection and amazing food from Rock n Roll Pizza to top it off! Looking forward to more visits in the future. read more

Looks kind of sketchy on the outside but pretty nice and clean interior with helpful staff. My family loves bowling. We make up for how much we suck with our enthusiasm, I would say. Harley's is one of our favorite places to bowl. They have a pretty good deal on the weekends, where you can get a lane and shoe rental for two hours for 40$ (it's called family night or something similar). They have quite a schedule of events and different deals throughout the week - things like college nights, cosmic bowling late at night, and also leagues. They have a little arcade that accepts quarters but it doesn't seem to be really well maintained. The lanes are nice and well maintained, and the staff is very helpful. The scoring system is easy to set up, and you can set automatic bumpers for individual players only. They also serve alcoholic drinks if you really can't handle being with the family without one. Great place to spend a couple hours with a group! They take same day reservations. read more

Harley's Simi Bowl - Bowling Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Diseases galore at this dump!! I made the huge mistake of booking a party at this place. It used to be owned by Brunswick and was great. It's now Rock n roll pizza and it's horrible! No one wears masks, no one cleans anything, the staff is rude and the pizza is like cardboard!! I dropped $400 on a party that was a nightmare from beginning to end!! We arrived to find everything filthy! We are in a pandemic and this place is spreading germs and it's filthy! We bought Lysol wipes to clean the area...they were turning black with dirt!!! We were supposed to get bottomless drinks for 20 people! Waitress brought 4 pitchers and never returned. She brought us dried out nasty pizza and never checked to see if we needed anything. We hunted down to order more food that never showed up! I asked to talk with the manager about the issue and she was worthless and disrespectful to us. To make matters worse there are some very scary shady characters hanging out here and gang activity happening behind the building. Not a place to bring kids and families!!! read more

Food is good and the place was very nice and music choice is perfect for kids and service is so good

Bartender REFFUSED to open a fresh bottle of wine for us. I said we would take any red to make it easier and she still refused? Those bottles cost less than one glass of wine that you're charging me for. Wont be back. Appreciate your locals and stop forcing your customers to drink stank wine. Come on. Very disappointed. read more

I've only been here once, and they were having a special for bowling Labor Day weekend. We ended up getting two games in, moved pretty quickly since it was just the bf and I. However we did have to wait for a lane to open as it was super packed that day. It was fun, I lost cause I'm the gutter ball queen.. but all good. Will come back to play some more. **If you need a lighter ball, you'll have to grab it when you get your shoes. read more

we came here for my sons 4th bday and it was the best money spent. when we arrived the had the set up perfect- purple table coverings with the cutest bowling cups and plates. the staff went above and beyond to make it so wonderful. My son loved the real bowling pin he received as part of his birthday package. we ended up not using the adult lanes and they were super understanding and only charged us for the lanes we used. the pizza was delicious and they allowed me to bring in an ice cream cake (which they also prepared the plates and utensils for read more

This is a great place for families, friends, business team building and dates. Prices have increased a bit, but they offer many options for affordable fun. The bathrooms are clean, the lanes are kept up nicely and everything is done electronically. They have the ability to provide bumpers by player! So kids and adults can play on the same lane without effecting either party. Lots of fun, clean bowling alley and they have a great little bar area. read more

Harley's Simi Bowl - Simi Bowl Cosmic Bowling - Bowling Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Very short staffed. Our bowling league starts at 4. You can't get any food or drinks before, because food isn't available until 4. Then if you want to wait in line for 20 minutes , you might be able to get something. Next time I will just bring in my own food and beer. It not worth waiting in line all day read more

Since I live on the Westside of LA during most of the week, going to Simi Bowl is worth 5 stars in my opinion. Let me tell you the quick reasons: 1) Every bowling alley in metro-LA is owned by AMF, therefore extremely high rates to bowl, 2) Generally grumpy staff. 3) The bowling-bars serve expensive drinks. 4) Horribly long waits and time limits. A little more detailed: The food at Pepy's Galley at Marvista lanes is amazing, but the food at Harley's doesn't disappoint either. In fact I've enjoyed everything I've eaten here, the wraps are especially good. Shout out to Jacky who works the bar on Thursday night, our night of choice, you are awesome!!!! I'll take one of your Lindsay Lohen's please. Thanks for putting up with our ridiculous drunken stories! In fact everyone who works during the week at Harley's is laid back and friendly. I've been on the weekends, and let me tell you I prefer the week. There are less yahoos screaming, getting plastered and jumping up and down. Although the outside is like a giant lump of beige concrete, the lanes have recently updated to new systems, with flat screen TV's for score keeping, which definitely takes away from the retro vibe, I miss the blue screens! But I've gotten used to them, and the easiness of their use. I'm not sure if they're owned by AMF yet, (even though the recent lane computer systems look like AMF gear) but so far they've kept their low and reasonable bowling rates, and special nightly events the same which is beyond fantastic and appreciated! This is the only place I can say, I love to bowl, that I actually bowl well at and that I won't ever pick second!!! read more

I called ahead to ask how busy they were, and they said they consistently had 6 lanes open all day, so we should be fine. We showed up and they had 10 lanes open, but they were taken because a league was about to start. I understand that that is a part of an alley, but I would have appreciated a heads up that the lanes would not be open for the 20 minutes it took us to get over there... They directed us to the other bowling alley on the other side of town, and gave us all a voucher for a free game, but I would have preferred an initial heads up. read more

We wanted to go bowl and do something different than going out to eat and we decided to go there. Place is very outdated and expensive. For 3 to bowl it was 60 bucks and I honestly don't think it deserved that. The lanes are old, system is old, shoes are old. Also the place was packed with a tournament which made the place extra loud. Place needs to major changes and they need to look at other pricing structure, I've bowled at places close to Hollywood and other places and they were significantly cheaper and much nicer. 60 for 3 for an hour of bowling is NOT good. read more

Harley's has a fun laid back atmosphere! I bowl in leagues regularly and all the staff and people are awesome and some of the leagues end with tournaments in Vegas and Laughlin. They have a bar with pool tables and really affordable drinks. They also have an arcade for the kiddos and their food is typical Bbq/snack bar it's good but overpriced. If you're looking for something fun to do in Simi Valley grab some friends and bowl a few games or join one of their leagues! They also have kids leagues, senior leagues and college nights. You can have birthday party's there and there is also Jeff's pro shop where you can buy all your bowling gear. If you are a first timer to leagues you get a free custom ball! read more

We had a great time at Harley's Bowl. We had a group of 10 (including kids) and Jenna at the front desk was amazingly helpful in booking our lanes and package. She really was a big part in making our Sunday bowling a hit! I recommend to sign up for Harley's free membership - there's a discount on the 2 hour rate as well as emailed coupons/specials. I do wish Harley's would get those metal bowling 'ramps' for kids. Even though there's bumpers, we'd prefer no bumpers and a ramp instead for the children in our party. read more

great place for parties and to hang out. staff is well organized and helpful. highly recommend

We did a birthday party here last night and from emailing to reserving to helping the guests they were awesome. They were super patient with our 2year old exploring the lanes for the first time and so were the people bowling next to us (thank goodness) great family environment on the lanes. Also good pizza served as part of the party package, the bartender was a little short with us at first but he made great strawberry margaritas and inexpensive so highly recommend tipping him because he's worth it, he was a great host after that as well. We made some great memories and the whole family had fun (2yrs-52yrs). Thank you to all the staff there. read more

oh where do i start!? well long story short, i went to harley's to bowl out, i even covered my exposed toes w the groovy lookin shoes. after i finished smoking my comp i decided to test my luck at the claw machine. usually i'm a great grabber but THIS CLAW MACHINE IS RIGGED!! i clawed the little blue shark and i was ecstatic, i was trying to win it for my significant other;). me and my s/o were very agitated to see the little blue shark fall right before it reached the exit hole. yes bowling out was fun but THE CLAW MACHINE IS RIGGED. SANDY DOES NOT APPROVE!!! read more

I haven't been bowling in years but I'm so glad my family added this to our Christmas tradition. The staff was friendly and the lanes were set up so that the bumpers could be deployed automatically for our younger bowlers which was very nice for my little niece and nephew. The big bonus was the adjacent pizza spot that served us an amazing set of pies and some of the most delicious chicken tenders that I have ever tasted. I look forward to stopping by here my next time in Simi. read more
