They were impressed with the music and picture display that added to the experience. The day of the event all of the staff were hardworking from the bartender to the bar hands and cleaning staff. Very organized! The manager even came over after to thank us and compliment our reunion. We appreciate your support in making it one to remember! Special thank you to Lauren and Brianna for helping with months worth of planning. They always responded quickly to our questions, offering different packages to fit our group. In addition, we enjoyed the tasting to figure out the menu and tour of the longue before the event. They represent Pinsetters Bar and Bowl so well. I highly recommend this venue to host your event!

I've been coming to this bowling alley for years back when it was Playdrome & the The Big Event…read morewith my family, and we've always had great experiences until now. The new ownership has completely changed the atmosphere for the worse. Tonight, after spending around $300, I tried to order a large pizza with a pitcher of soda and an additional pitcher of water, and was told that they "no longer serve water" and that I couldn't even get both pitchers. Absolutely ridiculous. How does a family establishment deny basic water especially when customers are already spending good money to eat, drink, and have a good time? The new rules and lack of customer service are beyond disappointing. On top of that, they're gouging us with $5 water bottles. Beyond disappointing! This used to be a fun, family friendly spot, but it's clear the new management doesn't care about loyal customers or basic hospitality. We won't be returning until things change.

First time visiting this bowling alley since it changed to Lucky Strikes. Positive was the front…read moredesk was very nice and professional, but it ended there. We've been coming here for years and it was always a great, affordable time, but not the case anymore. Our family of 4 spent over $300 bowling and eating their disgusting, overpriced food. We had a waitress for about 2 minutes who got us drinks only and then wanted to cash out and get her tip since she was leaving. We debated on going bowling or to a 76ers game. We picked bowling because we thought it was the more affordable choice, boy were we wrong! We wont be back!

It was $19 per person for one game and I don't believe that included shoes. Madness! I didn't pay for my first experience here, so it was definitely surprising. I am sure they run a special on Sundays for group bowling, according to their website, but the cashier never mentioned it. It would have at least made the cost somewhat affordable.

We've been here about a half dozen times before but tonight we got a broken lane. We paid for 90…read moreminutes but wasted a lot of that with the lane (#43) having mechanical issues. It wasn't a good sign when we started out with it dead with the bar laying across the pins. Someone finally came to fix it, but then it the pin mechanism would routinely drop pins. We never had a whole set of 10 to begin with on any given frame. If we were serious bowlers we would have been really pissed, but we're terrible so we just laughed it off. At one point all the pins dropped out and the lane lost power a second time. The staff was supposed to add time to our 90 minute allotment but that didn't happen. We were tired anyway so called it a night. They really need to take better care of the place.

Is Westbrook going to wow you with food, drinks, atmosphere, and style? Highly unlikely for the…read moreInsta era crowd, but for people who are there to bowl, it's easily 5 stars, and one of our favorite places to frequent for league and practice. Since bowling is our primary reason for going, 5 stars it is! The equipment isn't the latest and greatest, but the lanes are taken care of and the staff are quick to fix any issues that come up, and it's a really affordable way to spend the time (especially if you have league bowler pricing...so feel free to join a league!). The front desk staff has always been outgoing and friendly; becoming even more so as the staff have quickly recognized us as repeat/regular customers. Leagues are great and run well. A far cry from how leagues are run at our previous bowling alleys in Philadelphia. There are leagues for bowlers of every level, from extremely serious sanctioned leagues to really fun beer leagues. I don't drink when I go to Westbrook because I'm typically driving, but they do have a full bar with TV's (as well as TV's near each lane). I've never eaten Big Swerve's BBQ but there's a pop-up there (with mixed reviews from those I know who've tried it). Otherwise, you're looking at soft drinks and snacks from the vending machines that are always available. Another big reason to check out Westbrook is Big Jim's Pro Shop. Jim is really friendly, and is highly respected. The shop is almost always busy, crowded with folks getting new balls or regulars just hanging out and talking. The prices are more than fair and the drilling is exceptional. Just beware that it's a legit bowling alley focused on the game. Which means that even if there are 42 lanes, you might want to check ahead of time for availability. It's not uncommon to show up and encounter leagues or high school teams competing on the weekdays or run into a tournament on the weekends. If you can slip in during the weekday hours, it's a nice chill place. We're just glad we finally found an alley that we really enjoy with a great pro shop, good conditions, friendly staff, and fair pricing. We definitely recommend it!

When bowling, my younger son needed the support - if one person needs the support, everyone playing in that lane will have to use it.

Have to make some adjustments. But I think they cater to the casual bowlers and families making it a fun time for a group of friends. They have a downstairs bar, a small arcade, and about 12 lanes. Upstairs are a few more lanes and what appears to be a private party area. Would probably be a good time! Plenty of tvs that were showing playoff football, and a good playlist that many were jamming to. We got the Spanish tots and Caesar salads. The salads come with mini grilled cheese croutons, which is what sold us, but they weren't as exciting as I'd hoped. The tits were fantastic with peppers and onions and a nice dipping sauce. We got lucky with street parking right outside, YMMV!

However the food is NOT worth a dime. I'm a foodie so that's important to me. My sister and I took my brother here for his bday and we spent over $300, how do you even spend that while bowling? I ordered two orders of the wings, two pizzas which taste like cardboard and an order of chicken tenders and tatter tots, it was like 9 tots, along with drinks(4 sodas) only three adult beverages...$268 like how???? Our server kept forgetting stuff like naps and straws, at one point I actually went to the bar to get napkins because I didn't want to feel like I was bothering her. Would I go back, of course, just don't eat anything from there unless you are desperate. Very clean and spacious. I will recommend if you go with a large group reserve two lanes.

Being located upstairs and off by ourselves was aHUGE help in keeping them all ion one place with no interaction with the other, older visitors downstairs, so thanks for that! Finally, I would like to note as we prepared to leave I saw Manager Arturo dash past our group and out the front door and I figured maybe his car was being ticketed....only to find out he had run ahead of us to help the students cross the intersection of Swanson Street and Oregon Avenue. It's things like this that endear me to a tour venue!
