These young adults that work here are very respectful! We love to come here because they are never overcrowded like Waxahachie! We have never had an issue with anything other than the grands not wanting to leave. Thank you guys for always making our experience (for old folks like us) great!

We had a super fun time here. We went during the slow hours and played 2 games. When were done they only charged me for the shoe rentals. I couldnt believe it. They were so friendly. The place is a little dated but it is a great place to go bowling. They have a bar and serve food here also. The process are very reasonable. There is an arcade for the kids as well. I highly recommend for some good bowling fun.

Its a bowling alley, what can I say? A little run down, but still a good place to spend some time with family and friends. Snack bar was good, and beer was cold

I wish it made the money to revamp itself. But hey if you want to feel like you are in the command center of the Houston space station as the first moon landing is happening. This is the place.

The place is alright. I always get put on fried lane conditions from open bowlers so I can never actually get a feel of how the lanes are. The place either feels understaffed or the mechanics/machine technicians in the back dont hear the calls for pin setter issues (like pins on deck/double feed or scissors/forks dropping pins) or ball returns whith you ball spinning in the back on the ball wheel getting chewed/scuffed up. We had to wait about 10-15minutes for a tech to hop onto our pair to clear a double feed in one of the pin buckets that was causing the lane not to have a full rack of pins. They could really use an update on the scoring computers. I understand that alot of the machines there are running on legacy hardware (used to work at Corsicana Park Lanes as a mechanic/tech and had the same pinsetters Brunswick A-2s) but the scoring machines/computers/software could definitely use either an upgrade (there are different scoring machines that work with the Brunswick A2 pinsetters) or just some general maintenance. The scoring computer I was on had the keyboard face falling into where the hand rest is and made it difficult to hit the enter key and another button was obscured that I couldnt even make out what it was. Id love to bowl on a fresh pair there to see how it is though. Maybe next time.

Lazer tag and bowling are the only decent things. The arcade games are outdated and the drinks + food is super expensive . Not great tasting and not allot of alchohol for the price you pay

We celebrated my sons 9th birthday, and it was awesome! The staff was helpful, the price was more than fair and the 14 kids and all the adults had an excellent time! Thank you All Star Bowl for an excellent time!

Review №18

They have bowling, laser tag, arcade games and a concession stand. The food is alright only complaint is that the wait is long. There is usually not a lot of people there so great for family events. The laser tag arena is big so thats good. The arcade is okay there is always a game out of order and the credits are super expensive.

Went for a birthday party and had so much fun! We played lazer tag which was really awesome(had no idea they even had lazer tag) and played a cheap game of bowling. Cute little place but its a little outdated. They need more bowling balls but other than that it was great.

The lanes have some sort of maintenance problem every time Ive been there and the scores hardly ever show up right when you bowl you have to keep fixing them yourself, its frustrating when your trying to have a good time. Wont be going back.

We had my daughters 16th birthday party here with 30 teenagers attending. The staff was awesome... very accommodating and helpful!! The kids had a great time and it was a great experience! The pool tables and arcade games were a hit and they had a great time bowling. I felt that it was reasonably priced for that many kids.

It is very frustrating when a Google Search shows the hour to open is 4:00PM, yet the Bowling Alley website says open at 12:00PM. I called the Bowling Alley at 1:10 and there is no answer.I called on Monday to as what time they opened on Tuesday and the answer was Lets say around 1:00.

If I could give zero stars I would, first the people at the counter were very rude to me and my family. Then at the end of the night after we got done bowling we had been there two hours and they were charging us for 28 games. That means 1 game every 4 minuets, if that is even physically possible someone please let me know because you are magic.

Our group ranged in age from 8 to 66, and all had a great time. The ball return kept malfunctioning, but staff patiently unclogged it each time. Food was a little slow but there was only one person working the snack bar and she was working very hard.

Living in a small town like Ennis, Tx theres not much entertainment for families but Ive lived here my whole life. My own grandmother even worked here for many years! Today 6/3/17 my family and I, went to All Star Bowl and let me tell you, this is a COMPLETE DISGRACE to are community!!! The owner is a complete jerk, he should NOT be working the front or even owning a business, if hes not happy with whats in front of him!! Rude, disrespectful, seems Racist, and tries to over charge for rounds played at bowling!! We were there for 1 hour and he says we played 9 GAMES, Hows that even possible!?!? One person working the concession, which took a hour for nachos and a Sierra Mist! DO NOT GO HERE!!! This place needs to be SHUT DOWN!!! THIS man brings a bad name to our community and should NOT be owning a business!!!

When I came here as a kid, it was an awesome experience. When I got older and coming here with friends, it was still awesome. When i became a man and came to bowl in leagues, it was still as awesome as it ever was. Fast forward to now with these new owners. I must say...this place isnt what it used to be. For a Friday night it was slow. More than half the lanes were still open. I saw no kids...Maybe 2...I had fun but thats just because of who I was with. The bowling ball retrievers need work. The ball switch needs recalibrating. Some of my throws wouldnt register. The ball vault fan doesnt work. The bathroom smells like someone pooped on the floor 20 years ago and it was well preserved and maintained its aged stench. None of the employees seem to care about themselves and didnt even smile at me once. One of the girls behind the snackbar was rude and disrestpectful. The arcade games are ridiculously overpriced! Why does throwing some basketballs cost 3.00? Why does this crappy wak-a-mole knock off cost 3.00? Why does this 4 player fish impaler game cost 3.00 per person. Thats $12.00 in like 60 sec. Its insane. These little games like this used to cost a quarter...Maybe .50...but $3.00? Who can afford these high prices? Rich kids? Why would they want to come to this nasty joint? If youve ever seen that movie called Lean on me with Morgan Freeman, the school was nice once and then it changes to 20 years later and it is complete garbage. Im calling OSHA. This place cant be up to code. I wont be going back.

They have a deal on a website that says its $1 to bowl a game and a dollar rental for shoes! So i was going to play from 10 to 12. at 10 when I walked in the website says the place closes at 12 which I live about 25 minutes away when I get in there to get shoes he said well it looks like you got about 30 minutes left I get there at 10 he goes well its not cost effective so were going to have to close in about 30 minutes! I said i drove from Hachie he was like its (its cost effective!).... So i was not totally sure why youre website said 12 and he said (its just not cost effective) Again.... what happened to honoring your word and staying open till 12 even if its not cost effective! whats funny is my sons birthday is next month and Im going to another bowling alley for his party.

Very disappointed the last time i went. It seemed like most the people that work there acted annoyed when asked for help or service. My family was told no lanes were open when only a few lanes were being used. We asked to play laser tag since we were unable to bowl. They told us laser tag was closed. Ok......we still atleast wanted to let our daughter have fun so we asked for game cards. 3 game cards one for me, one for my husband and one for my daughter. We always do this then let her use the points to get a prize. Most games were broken and out of order. We tried to make the best out of what they had available. After playing games we went to get her a prize. The bowling alley told us they wouldnt combine our points for her to get a prize, which was upsetting. My husband and I are adults. Why would we need toys? I felt like we were treated very unfairly. Theres only been one nice guy working there that actually seems happy and happy to help. His name is Gary. Everyone else we have delt with there seems mean and unhappy to work there. Even though we live close to that bowling alley we will probably choose round one in Arlington over this places. Its allot more organized and not so run down with good customer service. Its definitely worth the drive after this horrible experience.

First time there, and we wanted to pay separately, and specified just for me, and the guy at the counter says, Thats what separate means. Altogether, we had fun, but avoided the employees in account of them being awkwardly rude and snarky.

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!!! Ennis All Star Bowl is now reopened by the Cathey family owners of Red Bird Lanes in Duncanville. Billy Joe and Lauren Cathey are trying to build the lanes back into a family center. The lanes are clean and well maintained and the arcade is being upgraded. Building up league bowlers and clientele takes time. They need bowlers to fill their new leagues. My wife and I drive from Duncanville to bowl league there each week.
