When we arrived, it was super busy, despite it being only 10:30 am. The employee working there was very friendly and put our name down, saying it would be a 30 minute wait. There were comfy benches to wait on until our turn. When our name was called, we were given the rental shoes and headed to our lane. We didn't really know how to play or use their electronic scoring system. Thankfully, the employee helped explain it to us. It was very easy to use once we got the hang of it! I really enjoyed the bowling experience and the smaller bowling balls were easier to use than I thought they would be! I appreciated how clean and tidy and well run this bowling alley is! Parking is very easy in the free 2 hour lot behind!

You don't have to be a good bowler so everyone is welcome! It's a really great way to get out and have some fun with friends while meeting some awesome new people. The leagues regularly have a bunch of different teams to meet during and after bowling - the host some after bowling hangs complete with games. There's also trivia during bowling. Overall it's a really fun time and a great way to meet fun new people - give it a try next time they have registration open.

Well, know what you are paying for. the lanes turn on for 90 minutes. when times up, you're done. You will likely get 1 full game and an additional 3 frames. So you are basically paying 11 bucks for a single game. I saw no drink specials. every drink I bought was priced as was on the menu. Last time I was on a bowling league I was paying about 12 / week for 3 games. Everything else was as I expect for a typical bowling league.

Boston Bowl is a classic spot you'd come to growing up in Boston. We came here for an unplanned…read moredate night and had a great time. You can pay to play as little as one game of bowling, or obviously more if you'd like. If you don't want to bowl, they have a billiards room, an arcade, and AR darts. Plus there's a food spot which you can dine in or bring to whatever game you're playing. Prices are pretty reasonable and they offer certain discounts for students and I believe seniors. It was pretty packed on a Sunday night but we were able to walk in and grab a lane. Food was also good, although a little pricey and took like as there was only one woman behind the counter and two in the kitchen. Despite the wait for the food and drinks, the staff were working hard and did a good job. It was fun seeing my boyfriends childhood spot, and nice to see families and friends gathering around to have some in-person fun again. We also got to catch a glimpse of a bowling league in action so that was pretty cool.

I had a great time on each occasion I've come over and I love the senior discount M - F 9 - 5 pm 40% off your games it's a nice benefit for us retirees as bowling these days can get expensive, but it's great to get out of the house during the week and get some exercise. (Bowling is a workout, whew!) They also have the pool hall of course and that includes some new features, they have a video dart game and they have a TV that has the news on it and of course the pool tables. A nice new addition is the new restaurant that offers food and drink that is absolutely delish! The pizza, wings & fries I've tried and I love but the burgers looked wonderful.. will try that next time. My only problem was that a game malfunctioned on us and I did have a hard time making the staff understand that we lost half of our first game on #21 (I'm saying the number in hopes that it will be fixed soon...) it went zonky on us and skipped ahead to our 2nd game.. but eventually they did get my drift and they moved us to a new alley and all was well. No we weren't trying to scam them! (smile) Thank you.

Although there is something nostalgic about going to Kings, I don't think the dedham location is best for small children (7 and under) , not only was it overly crowded, the lightest bowling ball the kiddo's were able to bowl with was a 6 pound ball which was a bit heavy for them. All the other balls available in our lane were 11 and 12 pounds. Regarding the food. It was ok, nothing spectacular....

There was a pretty good live DJ, the place is super clean and plenty of space, the staff is great (a special shout-out to Monica who was super welcoming), and the food is also good. The prices are fair. We ordered the Buffalo wings and they were good! They were drenched in sauce, it was more like they spread it on before cooking and the chicken soaked it in. They were juicy and only a tiny tiny tiny bit spicy. There's a few things to do at this venue including bowling, which we did and top golf (+ other games). The fun is endless. If you go with a big enough group to top golf I think it's worth it, but with a small group it does come out to be expensive since it's per hour ($100 I think) and not per person.
