All the workers before were super chill and actually talked to us. Though they hired a new girl I believe sometime in December. I can't remember her name but she's blonde and not the nicest person. I asked for a cup of water and she said the kitchen was closed and I can go to the water fountain. So i assumed all the machines in the kitchen were shut down. So i asked for a cup. Which she replied how she can't take anything out of the kitchen after it's closed. This frustrated me as the previous MANAGER and fellow coworkers would've just either made me a water or provide me a cup. The manager turned the corner and stepped into the altercation and literally made me a water right in front of our faces. After he handed it to me, the girl rolled her eyes and I could hear her talking about me as I walked away. After that, we slowly stopped going back.

She's the owner's daughter and actually helped us out while not one adult was present. Some locals shewed us out of where she sat us, for us later to be sat back down in our original place. (the local league members apologized). My advice here would be to wait at the desk for the actual owner, I can't tell you how long this will take as he did not appear for about 25 minutes after we arrived. Or else you will be move aside by Possessive local league members. Hey, I get it. I'm a native Oregonian whose been priced out by Californians and City folks alike. I can't even move back to my hometown because I married an active duty military man 20 years ago. If anyone gets it, I do! However, this experience was Bizarre, our food from the cafe next door was almost $100 and our son was gagging on it, unable to eat it. It was awful. Eat before you bowl, do not eat at the cafe next door. To top it all off this bowling alley uses the same equipment from the 1980's. Do not be prepared for any fun digital effects on computer screens here. Just the chunky block letters with your name, yep... 1980's equipment! The real surprised will hit you when you leave and you're charged over $50 for a few games in this low budget, long wait, zero service atmosphere. ‍ be prepared folks! They'll hit ya like your in San Diego! With all of this said, I was visiting my most wonderful sister in law who's in college. Her presence simply made this night and awesome experience, but I cannot in good conscience let this guy rip people off pre what is provided.

I've been to some bowling centers where respots and ball returns seemed constant, but this center is not so much of an issue. I do appreciate this center being locally-owned and not of a large corporate ran business.
