They were full with league bowlers when we arrived but the employee offered us a free game and told us where the next bowlero was and was so helpful.

Love this place since I was a kid bowling there with the Boy Scouts and the YMCA. I had a team that I brought in the YMCA in the Summers as 4 through 8 year olds to give them a great safe place to have some activity in the hot summer. Now my daughter bowls there as part of her High School. Lots of great memories that I get to share with my daughter couldnt be happier.

Nessa and JG are an amazing team!!! The customer service and great welcoming attitudes were on point!!! Hats off to Sage for making all the wonderful food!!! My nephews birthday was a success because of this team! JG kept the drinks coming...Nessa decorated and made us feel right at home!!!!! We will be back every Sunday and look forward to cosmic bowling as long as these 3 are in the building!!!

The bowling alley is observing social distancing guidelines, 100%masks. My issue was how long our food took and that some of it was cold and other parts of it were burnt- the young man running the concession stand was left alone with back to back orders. Customers can see that kind of thing..

$38 with tax for two people last hour on a Saturday night. Just long enough for two games and my other half to finally whoop my butt two games in a row, finally lol $22 through Groupon for 2 hours of bowling not valid Saturdays after 6:00 p.m. Have fun!

I just celebrated my husband’s birthday there yesterday evening and we all had such a great time! Nessa our waitress was amazing! She was attentive to our needs, tried to make sure we got the most for our money, and made it convenient for our guests! She interacted with group and was super friendly! I really appreciate all she did for us! Gil the manager was also very friendly and willing to accommodate our needs and requests! We will definitely be back!

The snack shop wasnt open. 6 workers and only 1 guy literally that can run the grill. Lights on only during league, no other times. Lane condition was very dry. Has to be worst location for bowlero. Highly suggest a corporate visit to this location.

Very low key bowling alley, they have great weekly specials. I loved that it wasn’t over packed or long wait time for a lane like other places (Main Event).

I’m from Chicago and came to San Antonio to celebrate my birthday! It was a Saturday night and we received top notch service. Our server was Nessa I never had to find her she was always there making sure we had what we needed! The setup was also a plus. It was nicely decorated with a sign that had my name. I would definitely recommend this place especially for a party!

Review №24

Rip off. The guy at the counter said 5dollars a game. Not 5 dollars per person. Although he was quick to point out 4 dollars for shoes per person. Spent 50 dollars for 2 little guys to bowl an hour. Wont be back.

I was sort of expecting this place to have had a make over. Aside from some upgraded games in the game room ,a new coat of paint and different food ,its pretty much the same. Their Tues bowling special coincides with league night so good luck getting a lane.

I held my sons 12th birthday party here. It was surprisingly enough cheaper to do a party for 5 (birthday boy+4 friends), than to pay for everything separately. Our server, Nessa, was amazing, and made the boys feel very grown up. When she realized his cake was DJ Marshmello, she added to his birthday sign, which he loved! She was very attentive to the adults as well. We had a blast, and wouldnt hesitate to have another party there, or just go and hang out again. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was great.

Had a great time with my family. Had a hard time finding a ball that fit my fingers. Would had given 5 stars but they did not clear the balls from previous bowlers. They should do that. There were 12 balls left. Did not eat this trip.

Review №34

Welcome to a 90s bowling alley. All thats missing is the smoky scent with archeic score keeping software, and music.Expensive all around. If your just there to bowl your good.Dont expect healthy options for food either.Pasteurized alamode.BOWLERO PRICES WITHOUT THE EXPERIENCE.

Mi
Review №35

Definitely an old building but the lames are maintained very well. The balls are a little different since they have two sizes for your fingers and I did not notice it at first. The food was actually pretty good and the fries are definitely on point. Prices are good and if youre military the prices are almost cut in half. I will definitely be going again.

Review №36

I was so glad that they are going to continue to have bowling leagues there in the fall. Smart move. Thats how you keep your regular bowlers to come back and bowl in the fall league and also your open play bowling.

Came here with my family last Saturday and will not be back.. Got HORRIBLE food poisoning. Pictures on menu did not look like the food when brought to us either. If you plan on coming here, I would recommend eating beforehand. Disgusting.

We went with a group of 3 on a Saturday night. The prices seemed fair. A little over 5 dollars per person per game and a little over 5 dollars each for shoes. The place was clean and not terribly busy. Lots of families and no knuckleheads. We ordered the Alley Sampler and it was amazing. I cant wait to come back and bowl again.

Over $5 for a Stella (beer) and made me wait 15 minutes to get it. There were 2 people in front of me. Got skipped over and chose to give drinks to the people behind me. Its all blacklights on the bowling alley floor and the balls provided were sub par. 3 stars cause the person working the front was friendly and helpful.

I absolutely love bowling! Having a drink with that makes it even better. The bar tender JG was perfect, he knew exactly what I needed to have a great time. He was professional but kept it fun! I love the ring games at the bar too! He let me play every one there! Let’s just say I rock at them

The other day I went and one of the managers named Lee was being extremely rude to me and my husband. Also while I walking to the arcade area, I overheard him saying incredibly rude comments to his employees. Extremely unprofessional and rude.

First time bowling in awhile, the staff was incredible! Nicole was extremely helpful and patient. My 5 year old son and his friends had a million questions and Nicole was kind enough to answer all of them! My son and his friends loved her so much they want to go bowling every week! I would highly recommend this bowling alley based on the staff alone! I will definitely be brining my son and his friends back often! A1 establishment and kid friendly!

This was my first time visiting this bowling alley and to my surprise I had an amazing customer service experience. The kind you expect to receive anywhere you spend your hard earned money. The staff was just awesome from the beginning, in fact it was good to see that managers still take part in the overall success of their operations. When I came in I had questions that were immediately answered with positive attitude, I was a little worried as I had younger kids with me and felt I needed to prepare for bumpers and instructions to get them settled. One of the staff members Jessica, which I later came to find out was a manager, was so helpful and extremely professional. She even helped me carry my shoes as the kids ran off. She let me know where everything was on the way and helped me set up. This was by far the best experience Ive had in a bowling alley and strongly recommend it to anyone wanting a day out. It was such a fun experience. The food was cooked to perfection and I had no issues but great comments about the staff there.

I enjoyed my time here. The bowling would have been more fun had we been able to see the lanes (they were lighted by black lights). The next time we bowl here we will ask that our lane have the lights turned up. A pleasant outing nonetheless.

Nice, older bowling alley. The people were friendly but a little slow on the service. The place is well maintained and has a great old school vibe that we really enjoy compared to the big mega bowling centers. Prices are also very reasonable.

Fun place to take the family or a good date night idea. I wish they had a few more bowling balls for people with thicker fingers at different weights. All and all a great place to blow off some steam and have some fun.

They really care about everyone. They took my girlfriend and I out of the cold and gave us a whole pizza and allowed people to give us donations. In that said, we were able to get a room for a couple of days with that money. Thanks to whoever donated. God bless you and I hope and pray that yall are blessed ten fold and all your hopes and dreams are fulfilled.

Review №85

The bowling alley was clean but very dark. The staff was friendly. I cant really comment on the price of bowling because I dont bowl so I cant compare but I will say that the price wasnt a lot. There was a problem with our scoring machine and when I pressed the button for someone to help no one came. However when I did stop an employee, he did come and help. We only bowled 1 game because the shoes (and probably the weight of the ball) caused my ankle to hurt. We didnt try the food or restroom. The alley was not crowded on a Saturday afternoon and while the cashier was a little slow she was helpful and friendly. It was a positive experience and good family fun.

Review №97

Decent pricing if you get the unlimited rate. Free refills on Soda. This alley has been around for a long time. Its very basic and hasnt changed much over the years however it also doesnt get jam packed very often which I like. They recently upgraded their arcade room and the pro shop seems to have a decent selection of merchandise.The only downfall about this location is the bar. 2 visits ago we ordered a round of drinks, the liquor was very watered down and bland. The bartender was also drunk and attempted to take our order and another persons order at the same time, it didnt work out too well lol.
