Been living in Upland for years and finally got a chance to try out this Bowlero location. Our…read morefriends wanted to go bowling and kindly invited us to tag along. Always plenty of parking here and the location is super easy to find. When we arrived there was a long line of people, but our friends were already checked in and we just had to get our shoes. The lane we were given was a decent size, couch on either side for each lane. I do like the surfboard tables, but they were kind of in the way and narrow with the table next to us every time we got up to bowl. Especially since the other table had pizza that was sticking out and I was nervous to knock it over every time I got up. We did unlimited games for 2 hours, that gave us enough time to get about 3 games in. I noticed plenty of balls were already in the ball return, so not sure if people go grab balls, or if they are just placed there to grab from. There were plenty of size options for the balls BUT I hate that we had to share with the lane next to us because they were eating pizza and grabbing the same balls and every time I went up the ball felt super greasy and gross. Cosmic bowling was really cool! Fun music videos and movies and other videos being shown on the screens down the lanes. I was expecting it to be darker inside though and having the black light pop out more. Inside also has a bar, food to order, arcade area, bathrooms and saw some people celebrating their birthday. They go all out with a neon sign and you're given a bowling pin that everyone signs. So that's cool to know if you plan on celebrating here. The manger was also kind and gave our friends coupons to come again and bowl two free games on their next visit so I thought that was really nice! All in all, I haven't been bowling in a minute, but it was fun to get together with friends, have a beer and just have fun!

My girls had a great time here. We were greeted right as we walked in by a nice young lady. She was…read moreable to take my Groupon vouchers for our bowling and also arcade game card. My kids bowled with their friends for 2 hours and had a fun time. They play MUSIC VIDEOS, which is cool but also distracting and some of it not age appropriate in my humble Christian opinion. Maybe turn the music videos off or make them in less screens. I probably could have asked for my screen to be off but the kids were not paying too much attention to them I guess. We had a nice server checking on us and she asked if we wanted anything to eat and we could open a tab. It was nice to be waited on so we didn't have to leave the kids to go order. I'll come back again and bowl here it's clean and convenient (although our station had some little trash and table wasn't wiped, i asked and it was promptly cleaned ). Thanks Bowlero upland!

It was crowded with league players for…read more2/3 of the lanes on the east side and there are maybe 8-10 lanes free for individual bowlers to play on the west side. So if you plan to take advantage of the $4 per game deal, either come early or stop by later (we're outta there by 8 lol). There are always fun events advertised at the front desk! Next up is a Dodger watch party on Saturday April 25 at 4!

Holy molium, it's Bowlium!...We were at another bowling alley that was busy hosting a tourney, so…read morethe staff recommended checking this place out. It's a striking building to look at especially during the evenings. A blast from the past with the smells to go with it. 32 Lanes as it proudly states out front, and we were given lane #26. Plenty of the lanes available too, and with that a large selection of balls. The lights were dimly lit in the place, and folks of all levels were playing that night. Fancy high-powered spinning and frequent gutter balls, we were squarely near the lower end of that spectrum. Different game modes on the screen included cartoons/animations of bowling pins, sea creatures, and comic book characters, which added some charm to an otherwise similar experience. At one point, the guys on the lane to the left gave us some good pointers, though I cannot say I will bowl enough to retain any of the muscle memory. All in all, a nice way to spend the evening.

We had a large, impromptu family event at Big Al's with about 19 people on a Saturday. We had…read morereserved four lanes, and some of our party was running a little late. The manager, Craig, was able to shift our reservation so the rest of our party could arrive without losing any time bowling together as a group. After we finished bowling, we decided to stay for dinner and let the kids play in the arcade. Craig was very willing to help us secure an area in the open seating so we could play games with the kids and have a home base for all 19 of us to gather and eat afterward. All in all, the staff at Big Al's was very pleasant and accommodating. Craig specifically made everything so much easier for our party, whether it was adjusting our reservation, helping us secure a table, or simply checking in throughout our visit to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely come back for future family get-togethers, purely based on the wonderful and attentive service we received.

My friends and I came here tonight to celebrate a friends birthday. We started our night with an…read morehour of bowling and the server and food was fantastic. We decided to switch to shuffleboard and that's when the issues started. We had originally ordered micheladas with modelo negra with our server, however when we started ordering from the bar, the bartender stated that they didn't have that beer. Not an issue but it just seemed weird since someone else from our group had ordered one 10 minutes before that. Then the bartender had an attitude when my friend tried to order 4 drinks for our group because apparently every single person had to be there to order their own drinks, even though we had already ordered with our server. Also not an issue but the attitude we were receiving was unwarranted. Then the real issue started. We went on with our night and they announced at 10:15 that this was last call and the last drink would be served at 10:30. We go to order a final round at 10:19 and the bartender says that last call is over. We think that's weird but finish playing our last round of shuffleboard. At 10:30 the manager announces that last call is over. My friend went to speak with the manager about the bartender lying and being rude and we were met with even more rudeness from the manager. The bartender yelled at my friend that he would meet him outside (I'm assuming to fight). Two of our other friends stayed back to try to speak with the manager and the bartender lied and said that what happened wasn't the case and that they were out of tajin (which wasn't asked for) and that we came after 10:30. Not once did the manager take anything we had said into consideration. After seeing how low the reviews for this location are in comparison to other Big Al's locations, I'm not surprised as to why. Not only do they have staff members that threaten physical violence, but they also have managers that think that behavior like that is acceptable. All in all, if you feel like you'll have a good time getting lied to, terrible service, and threatened, this is the perfect place for you. If you care about your family, I would not recommend coming here.

Round 1 Experience Review…read more I'm extremely unhappy with my experience at Round 1. I took my kids there to get out of the heat and was told the wait for bowling would be about 30 minutes. We ended up waiting over 2 hours for a lane and never even got to bowl. At that point, we had no choice but to leave. I completely understand that places can get busy, but giving customers an estimated 30-minute wait when it turns into more than 2 hours is extremely frustrating, especially when you have kids with you. This was a very disappointing experience, and unfortunately, we left feeling like our time wasn't respected. heat

The kids absolutely loved the bumper boats, and they had so much fun with laser tag and the go-karts too! We also spent quite a bit of time in the arcade playing a bunch of different games. The entire place was very clean, spacious, and well kept, which made the experience even better. One of my favorite things was that it wasn't packed at all when we went. We barely had to wait in lines, so the kids were able to go from one activity to another without spending the day waiting around. Overall, we all had such a great time and definitely left happy! It's a great spot for families looking for a fun day out. We'll definitely be back!

But it sure does let off a lot of steam! Finally got to go on the new track, oh it's pretty cool to be able to go up a ramp instead of just doing the normal turns. Mini golf is always fun, outside courses need a little love, but that Western that got turned to cosmic, and now back to be an amazing Western theme *chef's kiss* I live for that. I would love to see the rest of the building after it's done with renovations! Okay food, holy cow, that was unexpected. The boneless wings were perfect breading to chicken ratio, the crunch was perfect, and the flavors were great (I wasn't even very hungry so that says a lot about that). Later in the day, we got more boneless wings, because I now have a problem, and we got some pizza. That pepperoni pizza had that perfect crispy bottom, while still being fluffy, the flavors were surprisingly amazing. Honestly, date night, self date, any kind of outing, (we did a bachelor party) just go, trust me it's a lot of fun! Even though I live in the OC, I'm still going to make the drive out there because it's fun!
