    I'm cheap and .75 extra on a burger for extra lettuce seems excessive. Did not mention it when I bought it.

    What a fun, busy place. The upstairs, main area is where you will find the bowling lanes. With that…read morefamiliar bowling ball bounce noise with the clatter of the pins falling. Bar up here to serve you your libations. If you come here for an event, it is most likely in the downstairs area. If you are come for an event, use the other entrances to enter. I had no idea about this until I had gone upstairs and they directed me to the area. Your best bet, stay inside here as much as you can. Outside has an odor, so yeah, keep yourself inside, that's the only bad thing about this area. I guess the odor all depends on which way the wind blows. The downstairs portion of this place is huge. Offers a lot of options and is a great place to hold an event. There is a bar down here as well serving up your drinks. But there are more activities down here than just the bowling lanes upstairs. Darts, pinball, karaoke, pool tables, and probably the better of the floors here. Not taking anything away from the lanes upstairs, but you can only bowl so many games. If you are looking for a place that will offer you more things to do to fill your entire night.

    3.5 overall…read more Another visit to Vernon Lanes for both bowling and dinner. We were there on a Wednesday night and even at 7 PM, we were the only lane reservation. It was quite some time before we saw any other bowlers. I do wish that you could rent (during some of the weeknights) by game instead of by the hour. It's really tough to get in a full game and paying for two hours of bowling isn't always in the budget. Otherwise, no issue with the bowling lanes or shoe rental. Food was hit or miss this time. The buffalo chicken dip was a hit amongst several of us; however, my husband only ate a few bites of his fish and said that it was much too fishy. The burger also received mixed reviews. We didn't realize it came as two patties. While it was a very hefty portion, half of the group felt like it was boring. Service was quick and friendly. The parking lot does get quite full, especially if there is trivia downstairs. You may need to locate a spot along the street rather than their parking lot.

    The guy that measured and drilled the finger holes into my sons new balling bowl was GREAT. He was…read moreexpertly efficient making sure to not only measure accurately but measured more than once to make sure he was exactly precise. He was extremely fast with the entire process taking no more than 10 minutes at best, even measuring more than once. You can tell he loves what he does and takes great pride in his work,as he should because he is very good. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

    I've recently developed the "Bowling Fever" and so it was time to get away from the house balls…read morethat the bowling alley has and upgrade to a ball of my own. I chose this location for a couple different reasons: - This place is located within the building of a really nice bowling alley. Really nice interior and good exterior appearance. I know how that sounds and I won't get into the studies of why this matters. But more customers, slightly higher prices because people want to bowl here, made me hope that this would mean a more experienced/knowledgeable bowling shop staff. - This building is located within a really large plaza that also has the gym I go to. ( Check out the LAC review). So this place was convenient to go to right after the gym. I went to this place on a Thursday and having never entered a bowling shop before, I asked for help. The staff explained the difference in the bowling balls and after I had chosen the type of ball I wanted, I was shown similar balls of different manufacturers. This was a good experience. I wasn't pushed to buy the most expensive ball though those balls were shown, but shown to a good ball based on my experience. Buying a ball has free drilling for finger holes but I didn't have time that day to get that done. I paid for the ball and went back the following day for that process. There were already a few customers in there and a few came in after me but the one person working there did an awesome job in handling the crowd. He attended to everyone; answering everyone's questions, taking down names and notes for people dropping off balls for service, etc. The person doing the drilling was very thorough in taking my measurements of bowling fingers and doing a couple different "tests" and measurements to ensure the ball was perfect for my hand. It's pretty neat to see a ball drilled specifically for you. So the experience was great, the shop is really clean, has good lighting, and has nifty looking shirts, shoes, and accessories. I ended up buying a bowling bag...because how else am I going to carry that heavy ball around right? Prices for bags were good and comparable to a couple other places in town- I had called a couple other locations just to make sure. I also looked at a few different websites for the bowling shoes I ended up choosing and this place was actually less expensive by several dollars. I'm happy I chose this location, definitely a 5 star experience for me. Glad I was able to add this business to our wonderful Yelp world.

    If I could give less than a star I would. Awful trashy place. Do not go there and don't take your…read morekids there. Disgusting. I got there and used the bathroom, the first stall had poop all over the toilet (unfortunately people are gross so I didnt blame the place). I reported it. I went to the bar, had two drinks, ordered food, got the food, ate. Went to use the restroom again before playing games and there was STILL POOP ALL OVER THE TOILET AN HR AFTER REPORTING. Games dont work. Sanitary pad on floor. Empty drinks everywhere and trash. Bunch of kids working that obviously dont care. Manager Nick Clue immediately gave me my money back- did not try to remedy the situation which tells me he doesnt care either. Such a crap way to spend my mothers day AND anniversary.

I often see coupons for…read moretheir game cards (buy $20, get $20) and you can take advantage of their deals for bowling and games. I've also found it helps to set the timer when hanging out, making it part of the day instead of the ... main event. Many games earn tickets and redeeming them has typically been fast and easy. My teen son enjoys grabbing candy. If you're not interested to eat off the restaurant menu, we appreciate the pizza. It's not life changing but we enjoyed it as a quick snack. Huge parking lot so never an issue to find a spot. Service at the counter to purchase game cards and bowling times runs well, even when the line gets long.
