    The lanes and bar area are nice but that's about it. The older man running the place was extremely grouchy. He kept griping at people for various reasons. Put on your bowling shoes before you leave the carpeted area, only one person on the wood when you're bowling, stay away from others tables. It felt like you were being watched the entire time and unable to have a good time. If you want your kids to learn to bowl, I'd go elsewhere. This alley prefers to keep the lanes filled with adults. Not tolerant of energy or kids at all. They don't have any real food. Vending machines $1.75 for a bottle of soda and chips/candy for $1.00. They have tortilla chips with cheese too. Our ball got stuck on both our lanes several times. The lane next to us had a pin get lodged & the family had to switch lanes in the middle of their game. They do allow smoking so beware. The man smoking at the bar area stunk up the entire place. Thankfully we had finished our game shortly after he came in. Also, their ceiling is disgusting. Between the smoke & the molded ceiling, if you have kids, asthma or just care about your health, this place isn't for you. There's much nicer and friendlier bowling allies to spend your money and not be watched if you have children.

    I love this bowling alley. It's become my go-to when I'm visiting family in Kentucky. Some have…read moregiven it low marks for things like a smokey atmosphere, unfriendly staff, cash-only, dated equipment, etc, but I am not with them. I disagree about the staff. I've been here three times and they're always nice. The younger guy at the counter made sure my brother and I signed up my nephews for the kids-bowl-free-spring-and-summer promo; he didn't have to do that and could easily have let us pay the child rate for them. He's also helped us before with getting light bowling balls for the kids and setting up the bumpers so they're only on when the children are using the lane. A lot of bowling alleys, built more recently than this one, don't offer that option. Yes, it's cash-only. Know this ahead of time and you won't have to bother with ATM fees (even if you do, though, the prices are good enough that you'll still end out on top compared to whatever other credit-card-friendly alley you were planning to go to). If there's an issue with the lanes or equipment, staff is right there to fix things. I've never had much of a delay for getting a wayward pin off the lane or a ball stuck at the end, or whatever else occurs at older and newer bowling alleys alike. A full bar is available, and the place is also equipped with a variety of coin-operated prize machines.

    So this is my first time here was kind of iffy but definitely will be back again the younger guy at…read morethe Register very comfortable they have a normal play list but he actually gave us a piece of paper and allowed us to write song down and he played them unlike other places the prices was good there was a mixed crowd they close at 2 and there's a bar the parking is good because they have LOTS of parking space the only con was the food ... next time I'll pass is was very black and the chillie cheese fries was tasteless
