King-Pin Lanes is an extremely dated, run-down and old-fashioned bowling alley in the suburb of Fox…read moreRiver Grove, Illinois. We stopped here with my family because they wanted to play some bowling and had heard this place was good (they're very competitive bowlers). This place is run-down PERIOD. Water damage on the ceiling, scratched up lanes and balls, and no computers (you keep the score with a piece of paper). The main positive was the staff, who was only one woman. She was very friendly and accommodating. They do have a SMALL bar, but not many options -- mostly sodas and chips. We did enjoy playing pool after our bowling matches, which is only $1 to play. We eventually left because there's a musty/smoky smell and we felt a little bit like we were bothering the worker -- they're clearly short-staffed. My opinion? This place is a cute time capsule to old-school bowling, but past its prime for sure.

When we arrived, the guy at the counter seemed confused (lots of mumbling and no eye contact) said we needed to pay extra because their online prices hadn't been updated. Told him it was their problem and we had already paid. He had difficulty processing this and another employee finally stepped in and told us it was fine. We had pre-paid for 1.5 hours of bowling, but they shut out lane down 15 minutes before the time was up. I guess they needed the extra $3 and were determined to get it one way or another. NEVER coming back...

Proceeded to show up not even 20 minutes later, the place was packed. We walked to the front counter to ask what the wait times were, and a woman and man at the counter looked at me like I just told them I totaled their car in the parking lot. They proceed to say that there were no open lanes for the day in a spiteful manner. It amazes me how someone can work a job like this, act like a complete crude, treat people with disrespect, all while not even doing their simplistic job correctly. Good luck to those people and this venue at ever prospering!

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!!

As we entered through the door, the smell hit us immediately. The entire hallway, bar area, bowling area, and banquet area smelled like a musty and moldy basement. The entire place was extremely dated. Most of us had to wear our jackets the entire time because it was so cold down there. The bowling alley area is old, broken, and just plain horrible. $20/hr for a lane, not including shoe rental. You have to write down your own score, as there aren't screens to display anything. There weren't proper dots on the floor to help you figure out where to stand, so you kind of had to guess where to stand to prepare to throw your ball. The lanes did not appear to be properly maintained, as the bowling balls would take funny curves when thrown. Bowling balls would constantly get stuck and have to be retrieved by then gentleman who worked there. Most of the bowling ball returns would trap the ball (they were covered in duct tape and the wheel would stop spinning), and it would take the next ball crashing into it to get it unwedged. The balls themselves were in terrible condition, with large dents and chips in them. We have a 3 year old, and needed a lighter ball and bumpers. They did not have balls for smaller children, so it was near impossible for my son to push the ball down the lane himself. The bumpers were merely long pieces of soft Styrofoam that were set in the gutters, and not flush with the lane. This caused balls to become stuck in the gutter/bumpers and the ball needing to be retrieved. It really was a shame that much of our paid time was spent fixing constant problems. The soda guns were having problems, and our first couple of drinks were highly concentrated with syrup. My daughter ordered two waters, and both had unknown speckles in the bottom and in the ice. All-in-all, the few staff members were friendly enough, although not very engaging. I do not recommend this place, and will not return.
