We get to the bowling alley at 11:10am and as we walk in I can tell the guy at the counter is looking at me weird like I just walked into his personal house. I kindly said "hello, we would like to have two kids and an adult bowl." The man replied in a very rude tone "no you're not". I was shocked he didn't at least kindly say "I'm sorry we're booked". When I looked at him surprised, he said "we have league open bowl isn't until 2pm." Still in a rude, almost scolding tone. I told him that he should put that on his Facebook and he immediately replied "it is!" Then another worker intervened and said "oh that probably hasn't been updated in a while." I should have trusted the other review rather than the business's Facebook!

On a Friday night it wasn't too busy to walk in and grab a spot. You do have the option to grab apps, meals and drink. The food wasn't bad but it tasted average. I had a mushroom burger which was good but I really thought the peppers took away from the flavor. My hubs had the chicken sandwich and thought the chicken was just so-so. Staff was super friendly and down to earth. Very helpful. Overall, we liked our visit and really made for a casual date night. I would recommend a visit!

What a friendly little bowling alley. Came here with the Miss Sarit and her friends…read more The manager / owner (possibly) was super friendly and accommodating; we prepaid for 3 games each, but stuck around for two since it was late and we had been driving all day from NYC to this area-ish. He offered a full refund for the missed game, and even comforted us that it was "no problem! It's perfectly fine!" along with a warm smile. I mean, I would have been satisfied not getting a refund (it was only about 8$ per person for three games total so the refund was like a dollar each.) The bar was understocked, but that's understandable since most of the people here were underage. They do have 7.50$ pitchers of beer which is awesome. Left to my wiles I would have had 2-3! Get drunk and cause great concern for safety at this fun little spot.

We've been to these lanes about 5 times now. It's a very good bowling center. The equipment works…read morewell, the food is decent and the bar spacious. Mostly I appreciate their commitment to operations. Street shoes come off near the front door to avoid tracking wet salty water all over in the winter. Automatic gutter guards are available for kids. The approaches have always been clean. There are plenty of entertainment options here besides the bowling including a TouchTunes jukebox, arcade room and food and beverage options. Overall, this is a more lively and fun place to bowl than, for example, Roseland Bowl in Canandaigua which is closer to us. Also, at least as of early 2026, 3 games of open bowling costs about 4.5 dollars less per person than Roseland Bowl.

Ok! I gotta give this place 5 stars! Few reasons for that! Let's begin!…read more Few weeks back, I was in NY visiting and my last get together with my girls (all girls I've been friends with since 5th grade...1988 lol), my one friend Melissa suggested that we go bowling! I hadn't been bowling in 20 years. So I was definitely down for this. Thankfully, so was everyone else. I live in Boise now and yeah, we have old bowling alleys, but there's one called Big Al's. It's a bowling alley, but is not A bowling alley, if ya know what I mean? If not, it's basically a MASSIVE place! Everything is super modern, entire upstairs is an arcade. Has like 2 restaurants in there, a bar, lol. A bowling alley in my mind is a place like Sunset Bowling! Old school! A place where people used to smoke cigarettes while bowling like it was their job! All while ordering crappy food, pitchers of beer and it was just....fun! Big Al's is fine, but it's not the bowling experience kids deserve. Of course, smoking is banned everywhere now, and thank God for that. Old school bowling is just better. I can see the appeal of these new places. I mean, I was blown away by how nice Al's is, but I dunno, the old school ones just bring a whole different magic, totally different vibes, better vibes. Walking into Sunset Bowl, I was happy to see that it basically looked the same as it did when we were kids. Still had that 90s feel to it. They have definitely renovated since then (I think haha. It's been YEARS since I was last there prior to this most recent visit). But the same feeling of...good ole Americans, regular ole Americans, just having a great time...bowling! Of course there are video games and whatnot, but the main thing is...bowling. The way it should be. Games were dirt cheap. Like $5.75 I think per game. Then you rent the shoes and I ACTUALLY wore them. I did wear 2 pairs of socks tho bc ... bowling shoes...a level of ick that is off the charts! These were surprisingly...not bad and were actually...do I dare say...kinda comfortable? Last time I went here they had the gray and maroon shoes everrrry bowling alley used to have lol. These were in decent shape too. Made me wonder if they were on the newer side. There's a pic attached to show haha. There was the bar..:popcorn on the counter (like back in the day) but "popcorn stays in the bar" Hahaha so lame. I don't understand that one, but whatever. I also do not drink, but went in with one of my friends so she could order drinks. I did get a soda. $3.75!!! Which is fine, right? Kinda standard. However, it's $3.65 EACH TIME!!! Nooooo free refills!! That's some buuuuulllsh_t! Haha! Couldn't believe that. They also still have the little bowling alley diner, walk up counter, with stools. Very old school. Loved it. Fries were like $4 something. So, the games may be cheap af, but they definitely make up their money in other areas. Did that ruin my experience? Hell no. I am huge on nostalgia, as I mention endlessly in my reviews, so visiting here was definitely nostalgic AF for me. Brought me right back to... elementary school, then junior high, THEN...high school. Geneva used to have Town & Country Bowling. We frequented there more often bc it was closer. They had Rock & Bowl too...which was popular when we were in high school. Sunset still has something similar...cosmic bowling, I think they call it? Town & Country has been gone for years. Very sad, but I absolutely LOVE that Sunset is still around and seems to be doing great. Has to be to still be around after all these years. Makes me happy. It's great to see these places still around, with familiar faces. I dunno, again, it's the nostalgia for me. Does me in every time. I love going home and going to these places bc it's like a time travel experience. You instantly get flooded with all kinds of amazing memories. Some bad, mostly amazing. Again, so happy Sunset is still open! Just allow free refills and let people take the popcorn to their lanes!! Hahaha! Thanks for a crazy "trip down memory lane" (old person saying lol, but it fits perfectly here) Thanks for still existing, for being super clean even after all these years, for reasonable prices and people who work there who seem to actually kinda like their jobs. All that adds to the memories being unlocked in a positive way! Thanks for reading, YelperBowleees! Cheers!
