Best bowling alley in McHenry County HANDS DOWN. Family owned since it opened. The current owners,…read moreJim & John (father-son) are awesome. The lanes are constantly maintained & well oiled. Old school feel, (which is how a bowling alley should feel!) cheap beer (8$ pitchers!). Leagues are great and have a family feel to them. Open bowling one time per week (the day changes) $10 all you can bowl from 5-10. John does lessons and also runs the pro shop. Long story short, place is the best!!!

This was the first time I went bowling in along time and my first visit to J's lanes. We were…read morethere on a Friday from 6:30-9:00. The prices are very reasonable: $3.00 per game to bowl, $2.50 for shoe rental. They also have a decent menu for food and cocktails. I had the pineapple upside down cocktail- it was delish!! We also had the burger and fries which was good. They also had a deep fried hotdog on the menu that is wrapped in a piece of crisp bacon that looked tasty. The staff here is very friendly and helpful. You can "practice" in your lane for ten minutes before starting your game, which was great for the group I was with since many of us had not bowled in some time. Very clean place, super clean bathrooms, just overall a great place to go for a low key friendly fun evening with family or friends!! We will definitely return!!

And for the value the kids had a good time. We had food at the bar. Typical bowling alley kinda fare. I had the BLT and deep fried mushrooms. The Hubs had the same but had fried pickles instead. Everything came out hot and as can be expected a good level of grease (I mean that adds to the flavor,no)? Not bad for a bowling alley. Service was friendly and pretty quick. Overall pretty standard.

Bowling there is always fun! Great atmosphere! However I want to caution against taking kids here…read more I don't have any myself, but I'm making this point for kids and also from my personal experience. They don't have ANY balls less than 9 pounds. I can just about lift the 9-pounders, but it's hard for me to bowl properly because they make my arm twist a bit when I bowl because they are so heavy. I feel like the only way children can even bowl is if they use the alligator ramps that they have off to the side for balls to get pushed off of. The second thing I wanted to mention is their ridiculous "no outside food" rule. My mom and I had just walked over from Butterfly after having a late breakfast to meet some of my family for a couple games when a lady behind the counter refused to let me keep my food inside the building with me, even though I literally told her at least twice that it was just leftovers from butterfly and that it would just be sitting on the table. Not like I would have popped it open to eat it while bowling. I just find it ridiculous that she couldn't just make an exception and allow me to keep my food inside there with me, because it forced me to have to go out to put it in my aunt's trunk until we were done. That was just unnecessary in general because my waffle pieces were in a foam container and nothing was spilling out or anything. I just want to warn people that if you are going there to play after eating at butterfly, I suggest either finishing at the restaurant or throwing your food out if you leave your car parked by Butterfly.
