Beaver-Vu Bowl — Attraction in Beavercreek

This bowling alley was okay. We got a lane right away, that’s fine. I took my daughter and her friend on a Saturday afternoon. It was very busy. No issues with that, just thought it must be popular. We did the 1 hour of bowling. Took us a long time to find the right bowling balls. I finally had to get the kids the bowling balls from the front desk that were a size 6 because they do not have 7 pound balls. I finally found a ball for me and it was bad actually. The shell moved around when you put your fingers in it. I went to ask the front desk how to do bumpers for the two 11 year olds. I was told they only let people have bumpers for kids 9 years and under. This shocked me! I have never been anywhere that has said that. Basically the kids had a very bad time after that and just wanted to leave. We left 25 minutes on the clock and basically had to force them to just play one game since I paid for it. The food was okay. I got a small pizza that was good. The kids got chicken strips and fries. The chicken strips looked very strange. Just not right. The girls said they were terrible and so are the fries. They were mostly cold (not cooked all the way through).

I really wanted this place to be awesome but it was not. The staff was nice and that’s about it. I will stick to the base bowling alley that lets any player have bumpers from their computer system you control. Food is good quality and cheap. If we bowl on Sunday I would prefer round one. Since the base is closed on...

As far as the facility, it is plenty big and kept clean including restrooms. The restaurant has GREAT food. I have gone there just to eat lunch several times. The restaurant staff has always been nice. The above lane monitors are older and getting pretty dim. I'm sure the next round will be flat screens and should be nice and crisp for a long time. My problem with this place is the front desk help and more than likely the ownership. They act very greedy and stingy. They seem plenty busy and should be making plenty of money but they nickle and dime you to death and never side with the customer. They don't let kids bowl in socks and force everyone to pay extra for shoes. Extra money there. Then we had the same issue 3 times with their inaccurate pricing. The Sunday night college 2 hour bowling was priced one price online, another in the screens inside place, and a third price on the flyers inside. The front desk guy argued about it and said it had been that price - the highest one- for a year. Then get everything to match. Then give the customer the cheapest price on display. We are talking about 3-4 bucks here, but you don't act this way to customers...like it's going to make it break the business. This is why we stopped going. 3 strikes was enough. I was there today to drop someone off and decided to check reviews. I agree with the others that have had issues with front desk employees. They just don't act like they want...
