Was a busy Friday night at Cedarvale lanes that's for sure. I called ahead to make a lane reservation and was a bit frustrated they didn't take reservations on Fridays. They also told me they had league night which in my experience is a bit strange for a Friday. They assured me they'd still have a lane open when we arrive at 830Pm.
Upon arrival they had a huge line and waitlist and everyone had to wait until league got out at 9pm; felt further frustrated. We got onto our lane at 905pm, not the worst as we got a round of pool in prior to playing.
From here, the night went nice and smooth. Prices were a lot higher than I remember, $27 a person for 2 hours, but that's the economy I suppose. Got 3 games in, in 2 hours between 4 people. Ordered a couple pizzas, which were okay but a bit underwhelming. Years ago I remember this bowling alley having quite good pizza but it seems they downgraded their kitchen, at least after 9pm, and they only served personal sizes, no large pizzas.
Regardless of the frustrating wait, and odd and underwhelming pizza, I enjoyed a nice evening of bowling with friends. read more
