I had the Matchmaker- a sweet cherry cider and my husband had the White Castle in the Sky, his had a very unique flavor and the bartender recommended he sample it first. The ciders were very good. Bowling is by the hour and includes shoes and bowling up to 6 people. We did not have an hour to spend here, and they graciously offered us a 30 min rate. This was a pleasant surprise, we stopped in for ciders, but ended up enjoying bowling!

It has a game room and one prize is a crockpot so adults and children should play. Had a Jack and Coke, average. The food gets good reviews but we didn't eat. The people there seemed friendly and like regulars. We didn't bowl as we were there to support and no open lines. They had clever names for lots of things and areas. Punny names which was fun and clever. So clean, friendly, booze, and a sense of humor. The only big downside is size but I don't know how popular the place is overall and while booked solid tonight that was due to league.

Likewise, the bathrooms really smell bad, or there is the lingering ghost like smell of cigarettes past. So when I visited the Wawasee Bowl last month, this was what I was expecting to encounter. However, when I walked into the place I was really amazed. My friend Jenny told me the bowling center had been completely renovated over the past year, and it looks very bright and fantastic to say the least. The automatic scoring has been replaced, and the lanes were completely redone. Sadly, I didn't have a chance to bowl at Wawasee, but I can tell you the food is excellent! When one thinks of the culinary offerings at a bowling center, greasy burgers, pizza, french fries, and heartburn all come to mind. In fact, I was feeling apprehensive since I didn't bring any Alka-Seltzer with me. So I decided that since it was Friday, I would try their fish fry, and I was very happy that I did, as it was very good! Jenny, told me that the Wawasee Bowl also serves up some great lunch specials. The next time I go to northern Indiana, I plan stopping in and trying them. The only reason I didn't give this review a 5, is because I didn't bowl why I was there. With that said, next time I will bring my ball and shoes with me. This place is what every small town bowling center should strive to be.

There were plenty of open lanes, I had a great selection of shoes and there was so little noise you could literally hear a pin drop. My only complaint is that the place seemed understaffed and there really wasn't enough light in the building to see my ball roll down the lane. I felt very safe when I looked around the building and saw not just 1 but nearly 20 police officers on duty protecting us from the various threats of Columbia City like rioting, street gangs, Isis, and many others. After our second game, we saw what we thought was the mystery machine from scooby doo pull up outside. But instead of a couple of awkward teenagers and a talking dog, a bunch of black storm troopers hopped out of the back. I kind of like Star Wars so I wasn't really complaining. It was kind of cool to see the reenactments in person and I'm really surprised the bowling alley of such low, fair price could afford a Star Wars reenactment right before the big premier of the new movie this year. The performance even ended with a life sized R2D2 that actually roamed around on its own! SO COOL! Overall my experience was something I'll never forget. I've never had so much fun on a memorial Monday before! 5/5!
