Black Friday bowling... yes please! we walked in around 1pm and barely anyone was there.. perfect! This place is modern, clean and fun! I have to say bowling prices now-a-days are high. So that's not cool but we made it work- we got 2 games in with the kids. Something really cool here-they can set bumpers up per player! When the kids names were highlighted showing it was their turn the bumpers popped up on the lane. Really liked this aspect. Also, there were small dragon or dinosaur ramps to help the kids push the balls if needed. Small arcade and small concession but just what we needed for this type of day/outing. read more

What a lovely bowling alley. I haven't bowled in years and I was very impressed with the cleanliness of this establishment. I went there with friends, and found out that the bowling for 2 hours was 13.00, including your choice if hamburger, hot dog or grilled cheese with French fries and a drink. The bowling by itself or the meal was that dollar amount. They even delivered the food to our alley when it was done. Food was typical pub fair, but good. We had a great time bowling. It's come a long way since I have bowled with automatic scoring. Parking was plentiful. Bathrooms were clean. There was even the added bar where we could get a drink and take back to our alley. This bowling alley had it all. Shoes were clean. They had multiple weighted balls to pick from. read more

First time here for me and my niece. Place was very clean and well lit. There is also a large arcade. Woman at front desk was friendly. Being bowling novices, we only bowled for 1/2 hour. Will definitely come back again. read more

Service was poor to say the least. The man working behind the shoe counter was rude and unreasonable. Would not recommend.

I went the distance to bowl at this place yesterday (i.e., 30-minute drive time). The place is easy to locate with a big parking spot, the staff is friendly and attentive enough, the crowd is decent and place is clean. Lanes look well maintained and I hope they stay that way as I've read this place has been recently freshened up. Cosmic bowling starts at 830PM. We came with a Groupon for up to 6 people and it was worth it. However, the cheese pizza that came with it was very doughy. It's like eating bread with grated cheese that melted on top. Then again, I was not there to review the pub. Speaking of pubs, I did see a good selection of beer on the board -- with Arrogant Bastard, Pumpkin, Banana Bread varieties. Even if I am not a beer drinker I had to try the banana one. Only one drawback: the piped in music was blah. They should tune in to an R&B/hip hop station if not a decade station with fun, dance-y tunes, say 80s or 90s . Heck, even 70s. Something that grooves players on. All said, I'd go back. I wouldn't be embarrassed bringing guests over to this place. read more

Amazing place to bowl good drinks great atmosphere and good staff highly recommend you come here

Wow! Who would have thought that would we would be going bowling but there we were on a Sunday evening in Woonsocket bowling with a group of friends. 1 of our friends had suggested it and we agreed to go along and try it although I do not bowl because of a disability but my friend did and he thoroughly enjoyed it. It is so different from the old bowling alley days that I remember. This place was bright and clean and comfortable. Nobody kept score because the computer did that. I know I must sound old and I am but I was so surprised at the technology involved in bowling now. They had a bar and a snack bar with all kinds of foods and we could eat right at tables near where we were bowling so it was very comfortable. We could also bring the beers right to our tables which was nice. On Sunday evenings they have a special for $13 you get 2 hours of bowling and a Cheeseburger, French fries and a drink. You really can't beat that for an evening of entertainment and we found it very entertaining. We will be back because it was so much fun and the people were so nice. read more

Great family friendly place. Nice arcade and bar area. They are a decent price and the Tvs above the lanes advertised some great deals, like Sundays 2 hrs and a burger and fries for 12 bucks! read more

Came here with a group of four at 11:00 pm. We had a Groupon for two hours of unlimited bowling, shoe rentals and two pitchers of beer for a very reasonable price. The place was clean and staff were very friendly. Everything was well maintained,and the carpet looks like it was installed recently (no crazy color explosion circa 1991). There's a bar attached with good beers on tap, three beer pong tables, and karaoke-- although the MC likes to perform most of the songs... read more

There are not many bowling alleys around anymore. Many of the new ones that are popping up are trying to be super trendy and there for expensive. Walnut Hill is a great area bowling alley that is clean and a great value. On a weekend afternoon you can rent a lane for an hour with shoes for 2 for under $30. we played a little of 4 games in that hour. The food is pretty good too. Best of all the attached bar offers super inexpensive beer to add to your bowling experience!! I have never been here for cosmic bowling but if you are looking for something to do on a weekend afternoon, I would highly recommend Walnut Hill. read more

Had a great time bowling with my son. $21.99 got us 70 minutes of bowling minus the shoes. Not a bad price for 2 people, we bowled 5 full games. They offer some great deals throughout the week for kids and families. read more

Bowling center is clean, and huge! We ordered a chicken bacon wrapped, which was simple but good. The fries are seasoned well! The gentleman at the front desk ( we went on a Sunday around 3 pm) was helpful and polite and really concerned about our 3 y/o having a good time! Would definitely come back again read more

Don't get me wrong this place is GREAT! And the majority of the staff is great. But they also have some low lives working there. It's sad when the maturity level of the drunk patrons is well above those running the place. I was enjoying the lanes the other night when I had a laser beam in my face. I have very sensitive eyes and suffer from partial blindness in one of my eyes. I wear soft contacts in order to see and NEED to have the best sight I can for my job or else I will lose it based on the profession that I am in. I cannot believe that this guy...can't tell if he's 21 and a junkie or 40 and a complete loser, would shine a laser at a patron enjoying their night. Very sad and inexcusable. He is very lucky that the beam didn't damage my eyes or contacts or else I would file criminal charges against this half wit as well as numerous civil actions for harassment, bodily injury, as well as for me losing my job because of this piece of dirt. I love this bowling alley and would love to speak with management further about this incident because I intend on screaming this out to the world to avoid this awesome place solely for the actions of this long haired, beanie wearing hippie. I hope this message finds them all well and they regain their professionalism and understand that nobody deserves to be assaulted like that as well as have their careers and future jeopardized because some dud thinks it's funny to shine lasers at innocent patrons. read more

It's difficult for me to write a negative review for a place like this, but I need to get the word out. My advice - come with caution. I'll start by saying that I love sitting in the bar. The bartenders are all very friendly and very honest about their opinions on what could make the establisment better. They show a lot of frustration and love for the establishment that they work at. I've been here twice. Neither time was pleasant. First, we came to cosmic bowl on a Saturday night. The place was practically empty. I looked at the website and it said the price was $15.99 per person. We showed up and were told it would be $47. What?! They have a three person minimum. I asked to speak with a manager because it does not say that on the website (and it still does not if you want to look yourself). He said that the website says *prices are subject to change*. It does not say that (and it still does not if you want to look yourself). So, as a business law major, I mentioned that the establishment made an "offer" by placing the cosmic bowl advertisement. Even if there were a disclaimer about the prices, there were no changes in prices but the change was with the "requirements". Which means I could sue for false advertisement (not that I would bother). He then explained that the owner was responsible, that he would make an exception for us, and that it would be done only once. My boyfriend and I drop A LOT of money when we go out, and I think that the three person minimum is dumb as it makes couples feel unwelcome (which would explain why the place was empty). We intended to buy a pitcher of beer. They don't sell beer by the pitchers (unless, as the bartender explained, we purchase a groupon). Second time I came here it was because we won a three game coupon from our previous visit. I knew this was going to happen but I was trying to be positive. There are no disclaimers on the voucher that says when it is not applicable. Yet, we arrive for cosmic bowl on a Friday (which was still not started an hour after it was supposed to because the leagues were still going) and learn from the cashier that we cannot use it because is is not applicable for cosmic bowl. I then remind him that it does not say that on the coupon, to which he responds that the cashier is supposed to tell you that when he issues it to you. (The law states that an offer in the form of a voucher must have all conditions written on the voucher itself). If I used it 30 days later, how am I supposed to remember that? Well, I used it a week later and I remembered that he said nothing of the sort when he handed it to me. In fact, he said nothing at all. Then, the cashier tells us that if we wanted to do the cosmic bowl, it would be $47 because there was a three person mimimum. UGH! So a visit from the manager (who was drinking at the bar while we were going through all of this) fixed things up and we again got to bowl (not three, but two games) with our coupon. We had a few drinks at the bar first since cosmic bowl hadn't started yet. Let me advise you, draft beers we buy (like IPA's) are $7. A Jack and Ginger drink is like $6. Save your money, don't buy beer. read more

I was pressured by my boyfriend to go bowling for his birthday, so we decided to check out this spot. We just moved to the area, and our old bowling alley is a little far away for us now. We brought our friend along, and this is how it went. It was a little busy when we arrived, but after all the league people left, it was better. The pricing was great, we were charged $15 for the three of us for unlimited bowling from 9p-12am, including shoes. It would have cost $30 at our old spot for the same deal. We enjoyed the seating, as well as the way the computer scored the games, but the fun ended about there. The lanes were very greasy from the wax; we kept having to wipe off our bowling balls to be able to bowl properly after every frame. Also, later on in the night, there was a large group of 20-something guys hanging out a few lanes down, and one of them was creeping around our stuff, including my purse and our phones and other electronics. We were finally fully creeped out when who we think may have been a staff member of the on-location pub was wandering around the entire place, hitting on young girls, hanging with the crew of guys, and hanging around our stuff. It was too close for comfort for us, and we left before we could finish our full night of bowling. The negative things could have been worse, so we're going to give them another try. If something happens again, we will be talking to a manager or the owner! read more

Place is awesome. Great staff, great lanes, and a great pub. The DJ on Friday night had the place packed when I went ! Well worth a visit and so much fun. read more

Its alright for where it is located. If you want to get out and go bowling and live near by its a good place to go relax and catch up with some friends. If you are a serious bowler there are leagues that look pretty intense. read more

I was a little disappointed with the lack of "light balls" and the finger hole to ball weight ratio was a bit absurd. but also I was impressed with how well I bowled even with left over food poisoning from a previous location and high probability of getting epilepsy due to the black lights and neon lights. Whoever was on DJ duty props to you! I was feeling it tonight!! "Yeah grease lightning" read more

I go to this bowling alley pretty often and it is always immaculate. I have never had my lane malfunction or anything like that. The lanes are always well conditioned, and the pins seem like they're always new :P I have been to many bowling alleys, but this one is the BEST. GO THERE NOW!!! read more

i love the karaoke bowl held every monday night from 9:30p-12:30a all for $10 shoe rental free kids are welcome!!
