My favorite bowling alley. I've been here probably 20+ times and it is always fun. The best part is bowling in a cool, quaint, vintagey atmosphere instead of one of the mega-lanes. The woodwork is pretty, the bar is a great place to hang if you need to wait for a lane to open, and it's the only bowling alley I've ever seen with a chandelier. I kid you not, check out the pics. No ugly fluorescent lighting here, nope, this place steps it up a notch.
I do recommend coming at an off time (weekdays), as there are only 10 lanes. Also, call ahead to make sure there is open bowling instead of leagues. But even on a busy open weekend night like tonight, it's worth the wait. There's a restaurant attached to the bar if you need a burger, flatbread, nachos, curds, or whatever else suits your fancy for good bar food. Or just enjoy a cocktail, wine, or the fairly substantial beer list (local and national beers, and even their own brews!).
Did I praise it enough yet? It's always clean, has wooden benches instead of typically bad plastic bowling chairs, the servers check up on your frequently when your glass gets anywhere near empty, and it features 10 high quality, well-maintained bowling lanes, with polished floors. Like, sometimes, almost too well polished, but I'll take slick in comparison to some other junky places that feel dirty everywhere. Overall, a way better bowling experience than most lanes. I'd call it a strike!
