Great Bowling Alley! There aren’t too many alleys left anymore but this one is just amazing! 24 lanes with bumpers if you need them! TV score screens and tables to sit at make the experience great! Food service also so you can eat while you bowl! The food was tasty! The staff were friendly! The prices are reasonable! House balls and shoes are available if you need them! This is a great bowling alley!!

Great fish fry. Generous portion. Nice sides. Tuna in the macaroni salad. They didnt have to, but they did. A glutinous delight. You can also get drunk and bowl. Is this heaven or just a bowling alley with a good fish fry?

One week we had two youngsters running to the bowling line next to us while I was starting my approach. This week I asked the attendent to Not put young kids next to our group of Sr men. Only 3 of 12 avalable lanes were in use. 15 Min later the attendant assigned a family with 2 kids to bowl in the lane nearest to us. Just not listening to customers when their request could be easily accomodated - Poor customer service.

This is my favorite place to go bowling. Between the large beer/drink selection, delicious food, and well kept lanes, it’s hard not to like this place.

Clean. Great food. Friendly, courteous staff. Very good neighborhood no problems with theft or criminal element. Limited seating due to covid-19.

Ok....its a bowling alley but the food is good and on Fridays you probably have to wait for a table but the wait is worth it. Love their fish....

Amazing lanes and even better beer, with service to match. Covid ammendments are more than adequate.

A shockingly good place to eat. I never knew how good the food was here. Think high quality diner food but in a bowling alley. I was brought by my wife to meet up with her family. I was not enthusiastic about going there. Not did I want to wait over 40 minutes to be seated.Wait to be seated???? Yes. The place is busy and well liked/ loved in West Seneca. The fish fry is that good. My wife was just as delighted.

Definitely recommend. We had a large party that was not coordinated and they worked with us to give us lanes so we could accommodate the late comers. They also have good draft beer, as well as good wings and pizza. A great experience for someone from out of town.

I went midnight bowling which strikers makes really cool and fun. However, our lane had broken down multiple times causing us to have to wait. I do not mind this and I know it happens however, when it happens about 10 times in two games, it seems a little excessive and something should be fixed. One employee was pretty rude, he also never explained that midnight bowling was unlimited games until a certain time. I wish I would have known that instead of paying them and not knowing what I paid for. At least, I found out how it worked later. The food was pretty good also. The only reason this is a 3-star review is because the midnight bowling was fun and they had cool lights and throwback music.

We come here once a month for pizza and wings and ALWAYS have a great experience. It was an obvious choice for our sons birthday party and the crowd of 15 kids had a BLAST! The staff were super accommodating right from the start! They made it super easy for a busy family to celebrate Highly Recommended!

Craved a reuben tonight on St. Patricks Day, so happy we chose Strikers! Never been disappointed with any food Ive ordered there. Sandwich was so good! If you can get there tomorrow during their Irish Specials, do it! Highly recommend this place.

Went bowling here a few years ago and had a great experience. However, this time, the men at the front desk were rude for no reason and just had bad attitudes in general. The bartenders were also rude and pretty sassy. It seemed very unprofessional. There was only one staff member who was friendly and kind. When people wait an hour and half, with no complaints, for a fun night of bowling, you would think that staff members would treat their customers with respect.

Usually like going here but my experience the other night was awful. The only reason they’re getting a 2 is because the bartenders were much nicer. When we walked in for midnight bowling not many people were there but our group had friends of our that were bowling already with 5 lanes next to them. He gave us our lane by the time we noticed so I asked hey can we move down next to our friends. At first the older man kept saying “he has you at 18” and I would say okay but is it possible we move down here with our friends and he just would repeat himself. He did so in a rude and uninterested manor. Eventually he asked the kid behind him and he just said no kind of like he just didn’t want to bother. We also ordered fries and they were all burnt but honestly much less of an issue than the rudeness. Lastly when we left we had someone forget a jacket and call back in the morning to see if it had been placed in the lost and found. It wasn’t, it was a men’s jacket and the only people there were a family and the workers. The jacket was also pretty well hidden that’s why it was forgotten. So we believe it’s possible a worker may have just kept it for themselves when cleaning up.

Review №27

The two women bartenders were very rude. The bar was pretty busy and crowded. As I was waiting at the bar, the one woman rudely told me to back up and give her some space. I backed up as much as I could and I said sorry. She then went on to complain about how I was in her work area. I also had a tab open and she had asked to see my id again. It was busy so I let her know about my tab and she rudely stated that she doesnt care and to give her my id. I had no problem showing my id, but the way she had asked was completely rude and uncalled for. Very bad attitudes from staff members. If you are looking for a FRIENDLY place to go bowling, I highly recommend AMF lanes.

Just an overcrowded bowling ally with impatience workers and broken equipment. Gave us a hour + 1/2 to play three games, that they had to stop 4 times due to technical difficulties and cleaning. They ended up cutting our time short on top of that. Dont even get me started on there undercooked food, only good thing about this place was there price on beer

I only gave it a one star so I can post my review. Based on my own experience today and in the past I would never go there again. Very rude and when asked if they have a lane available for my daughter in wheelchair was told if I checked their website I would know to call ahead for special things. Website didnt state that. We enjoyed ourselfs at AMF today.

Review №47

The absolute best place around to get a fish fry. They offer it the traditional battered way or you can get it broiled in lemon pepper or Cajun. The girlfriend and I also opt for the broiled, they give you a nice amount of Mac salad and coleslaw and your choice of potato salad or french fries. They offer call ahead for take out which I strongly suggest and for dine in, the earlier the better because the place fills up. Even if you do have to wait its not usually that long, theres a bar in there as well if you want to pass the time before youre called.

This place is great. I am here multiple times a week. Love their pizza and wings daily deal. Their Habanero wings are the best!What really attracts me to Strikers is their beer selection. It is constantly revolving. So many good choices and a great value.

Its a bowling alley with a bar and kitchen or a bar and kitchen with a bowling alley. We met up with another couple for chicken wings. They are really good. Made to order extra crispy and the right amount of sauce. Add a few beers and we had a great meal and conversation.

Went to Strikers today with my handicapped niece in a wheelchair . we inquired about a handicapped lane with a ball ramp. We were told we needed to go to the webrsight to make arrangements for special needs and it isstated to do so. There is nothing on the websight that we can see. Poor poor customer service to the disabled and very shameful as a business. Will never recommend this place for anything. Go to Transit lanes thet are very welcoming to everyone!!

Review №59

We had their beer battered fish and it was really good. I like the fact it was skinless under the batter. The only thing Im not crazy about is the tartar sauce was sitting out on the table and its warm, it shouldnt be left out. They should bring it if requested because its taking a chance on it going bad by leaving it out. The servers were really nice and came back to make sure we had everything we needed. Id definitely eat there again.

Usually go there with some friends at night for bowling. Its a fun place, but weve tried to order food or drinks from the bar and the bartender has been charging us more than what he should be (total is $11 something and the computer says it, but hell ask for $12), wont let us order almost anything, and has had such a nasty attitude. The first time this happened, I let it go. This keeps happening and at this point its beyond absurd.

Review №65

Employee was very rude and discriminating against my friend with one arm. We asked nicely for bumpers so it would be easier for her to bowl and he very disrespectfully said that it’s only for little kids and that she shouldn’t use that as an excuse. If you know my friend, she never uses that excuse. He continued to say that we should not mess around. Obviously my friends and I came to bowl and have fun. We did not have any intentions to fool around. The conversation was very unreasonable uncalled for and in front of the whole alley. This is completely ridiculous and very unprofessional.

Me and my friends went to go bowling and have fun tonight. right from the start the guy wasn’t being nice, his name was kevin. i personally have one hand and he was mad because we asked for the bumpers since it is hard for me to aim the ball. he told me i shouldn’t use my “handicap disability” as an excuse. I never use my one hand as an excuse and he was being discriminatory against it. it was uncalled for, i left in tears and deserve a refund!

They dont take reservations for lanes so dont bother calling ahead. Terrible for families especially since they have league night on Fridays. The place has a strange smell that they should probably try to do something about although I dont think they can.UPDATE:I want to appreciate the response for the owner. Thank you for reaching out, its because of your response that we will definitely try coming by again. A little customer service goes a long way, and its much appreciated. Best of luck! See you soon.

Was friendly but a little disappointed that their grill closes at 1. We went in after a Bachelorette Party thinking we could wind down and have a bite to eat before going home. However there was no food service. Theyre open until 4 a.m. so we figured their grill would be open later also. So we sat and had water and watched people bowl.

Review №95

I want to start by saying this review is not based on my overall experience at Strikers. Normally my experience is good when we come to enjoy the bar area, food and open bowling. Unfortunately my first time having a birthday party here was less than satisfactory. It was my daughters 5th birthday and we had a pretty large party which the party coordinator was well aware of. Since this was our first bowling party we had no idea how things worked. Due to what seemed to be the alley being under staffed we had no guidance or help on what to do. The computer started the lanes on time as explained in our initial phone call but not every one was ready to bowl. I had to figure everything out for myself and had to constantly look for a worker to help with food and drinks. I would have much rather been a part of my daughters party versus running around the alley the entire time. The party hostesses were great when they could be available for our section but as I said it just seemed so under staffed. At one point they pulled our waitress to work the bar area when I needed her for our guests. Maybe, hopefully, it was just a fluke and bad day but we will definitely be trying somewhere else next time.
