Renaissance Bowling Center - Bowling Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

This is the best deal ever. Friday night (I heard maybe Saturday too?) UNLIMITED bowling from 7pm to 1am for TEN dollars. I don't caps much, so you know I mean this deal. Oh it includes shoe rental. Came here last night with some friends. The people working are super nice, very friendly and helpful. The lane are well-kept and the shoes we got were in good to excellent condition. We got there at about eight and it wasn't that busy but quickly became a bit more crowded, though by ten o'clock, only less than half the lanes were full. They tended to put people in lanes near each other, which is kind of annoying since you have to wait for the people next to you to go, but the crowd had varying degrees of bowling ability and were very supportive of each other haha. The bar is tiny, and if you're looking to get pampered, this is not the bowling alley bar you should go to. There are only a few people working so you may have to wait for a drink if the lanes get busy. Mixed drinks come in rocks glasses and the pour is pretty heavy, so they're very boozy. I had a beer - selection seemed limited but they had what I wanted - Miller Lite! Didn't try the foo because we already ate, but it looked tasty and appropriately greazy. Unfortunately only bowled two games this time, but I am almost positive I'll come and stay until 1am one day. If you ever needed to just practice your game, weekends here would be the perfect opportunity! read more

I had an event over the weekend with over 50 people and Steve and his staff were professional. They helped in setting up the score board and making sure everyone had their bowling shoes and just being nice. Everything was excellent. Renaissance Bowling help my event go out with success. Thank you. read more

Great place came here to bowl and invited family to enjoy the experience you should go here.

Note: I bowl a lot...hence, my many reviews of bowling alleys. Renaissance Bowl is pretty cool. It's not ritzy or glamourous, just decently modern. I mainly frequent Renaissance Bowl because it is minority-owned and I like to see good Detroit businesses thrive. That being said, the prices are pretty cool. You can get a game going for roughly $3, which is so cheap you can play numerous games without breaking your pocket. Roughly 50 lanes, so you could get a small group gathering going... but call ahead first. I think the hours of operation are only afternoons and nights. read more

Renaissance Bowling Center - Bowling Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Came here with a large group from work, we had made reservations for 16 people to come bowl on a Wednesday at 5:00. When we arrived, there was a big commotion because apparently they had no record of our reservation. Over half of the lanes were free, but because there were league games starting THREE HOURS later, they said they could not put us on any of those lanes, even when we promised to be done in 2 hours. So the 16 of us were squished into 3 lanes on the end. The man running the lanes and getting the shoes was also apparently the bartender (hope he washed his hands), so we were unable to get drinks anytime there was an issue with a lane, or a new few people dropping in. But, once he heard we were from a school and were celebrating our Christmas get-together, he basically was free with the pours for the rest of the time there (literally, free...as in, we no longer had to pay). It probably helped that the majority of our staff are lovely ladies. :) Not in the best of neighborhoods....but what are ya' gonna do. read more

$10 for unlimited bowling and shoes on a Saturday night? I'm in! Typically they do cosmic bowling on the weekends but when I asked them about it, they said it was too busy. This place was packed! I don't go bowling very often, so maybe I have no idea of pricing, but my partner and I ended up playing like four or five games, which I think for $20 isn't bad. I guess I am used to Garden Bowl prices. This is a black-woman owned business which makes it that much more rad. She was there sitting to the side of the cashier. There are some news-clippings taped around the cashier station with some history of the spot. There was even a photo of the owner and Oprah. Pitchers of beer were around $10. A dude bought me a beer even though I was there with my husband and he "didn't care if that's disrespectful". That would typically piss me off big time because who thinks it's cool to be disrespectful, but I was having such a good time, I didn't care. Thanks! You were right, the bottled beer DID taste better than the draft. But maybe because it was free. I hope next time we go they will have the cosmic deal going. read more

Every time I have been invited here by my friend that lives near it has been a very uninviting experience by Steve the owner after spending over $300 each time as a group which my friend alway invited many of us for different communities to patronize this local business Steve is not very CUSTOMER friendly nor kid friendly we will no long patronize this local BUSINESS in our community read more

My husband and I have events each month for our married couples. It's a group of us, each month we go somewhere different. I figured, it's February black history month, lets go to a black owned business. We decided bowling... Steve is the owner. Ok so I called and scheduled for my group to come. I stay in Clinton Township but i had to come to the place in order to reserve space, had to give$100 deposit. The deal was 9.50 ppl for 3 hours of bowling, shoes included. Cool. However, that's the same price for kids like 6 and under. WHO DOES THAT??? So I'm like I have to pay$10 for a3 yo? , she bowled two frames and was done. Then I asked for a basket of fries and nachos as we like to give our couples a little something on us... They couldn't do a basket, I had to order the small portion at 2.50 per, then the nachos at 3.50 was nasty cheese and a small bag of nachos.... $18.00 for uncooked fries and bagged nachos with "what is it" cheese. Ok that's cool, I get it.... But then I ASKED FOR A PITCHER OF WATER.... I was told they didn't have pitchers.. Upon my surprise it was a wall full at the bar. I was then told, no you have to purchase a beverage like pop/lemonade in order to get a pitcher..... The water however is on the counter in a dispenser with cups next to it.. So what's the difference in me taking five cups of water and a stack of cups and a pitcher... CUSTOMER SERVICE IS KEY. I'll NEVER GO BACK, will NEVER SUGGEST IT. Sometimes it just takes a little extra. You just never know who'll talk about you. As a Business Owner... You HAVE TO TREAT PPL BETTER THEN ALRIGHT. They are your bread and butter... They decide if you eat or not... Aaaaannnnnnnddddddddd I'm trying to support my ppl. This is why its SOOOOO hard supporting #BlackOwned read more

This bowling alley is horrible. The only positive is on Saturday you can bowl for $10 a person with your shoes included until they close. They will charge you a fee to use your credit card. The staff is very unprofessional and rude to their guest. If this was the last bowling alley to go to, then I will not patronize them. This is a black owned establishment and very poorly ran. read more

Omg this place was awesome. Haven't been bowling in forever but my niece was here from Tennessee and she wanted to bowl. Didn't know where to take her and we drove by renaissance bowling center made a u turn to check it out and it was the best decision ever. Clean, friendly good music. I want to have my birthday party there. read more

I visited this bowling alley for the first time tonight with a few friends. I arrived around 10pm on a Sunday night and was immediately stopped as I entered the building by a "security guard." He told us we had to wait by the door until the line near the register cleared. I thought this was odd but I complied. Once the party in front of us completed their transaction we were allowed to approach the counter. I attempted to read the signage surrounding the counter to look at pricing and general information yet I was told to hurry by the cashier. This rubbed me the wrong way seeing as this was my first time here and I knew nothing about the alley, the prices, etc. I told the cashier that we had two friends already here and we would like to join their lane so we only needed to rent shoes. He told me no you can't do that. This confused me since I've been to many alleys before where this was allowed me. I re-explained myself and asked what was the cost of just shoe rental. With an attitude he told me it's $10 for everything, you can't just rent shoes and you have to get your own lane. At this point I became frustrated and said fine I don't want to bowl, I'll just join my friends. The cashier then said well that's $5. WHAT!? $5 to sit and watch someone bowl. At this point, I stepped aside and let my other friends pay for their lanes and shoes. The cashier legit would not complete their transaction until I paid. I gave the man the $5 so that my friends could bowl and so that I could see my other two friends I hadn't seen since moving out of state. As the night progressed, there were constant issues with my friends' lane so they had to continuously go to the counter and request for the lane to be fixed, the pins to be corrected, or the power to the lane be cut on. It tuned out that the cashier was also acting as the mechanic so they had to wait until he was free to fix the lane (not to mention he was the bartender as well). After at least 4 issues with the lane, one would think he would offer to move them to another lane. Too much like right I suppose. Turns out that the cashier/mechanic/bartender was also the owner. I grew very upset when I found that this place was minority-owned since I like to support local and Black-owned businesses but unfortunately this was my first and last time here. Words of advice for the alley: Be patient and respectful to your customers especially if you're going to make outlandish rules (i.e. no sharing lanes and $5 entry fee). Train your employees so that they can handle the cashier, bar, and the lanes so that you can actually manage the place and customers don't have to wait 10min for a 30sec fix. Read a book about customer service, your business needs it. read more

I called to check on a private party that was being held here. The management was incredibly rude and even hung up on me. I would NOT recommend this place to anyone for private parties in the banquet room or for bowling. I have been bowling for over 20 years and I have not encountered worse service anywhere in the USA. Very unprofessional. Very rude. Very arrogant. Do not recommend. read more

The worst customer service ever!!!!!! All the employees Steve as well as Fred are extremely rude the website is not correct they don't open when they state they're going to be open horrible experience tried on multiple occasions they even charge a cover to get in on the weekends read more

A decent house for 3 and 4 person leagues. It is very tight for 5 people league there is no where to put your equipment and no where to sit. It is hard to feel comfortable in such close quarters. The lanes are pretty good not many break downs. read more
