Lightning Strikes Bowl — Attraction in Fort Myers

We experienced this alley for the first time this past weekend (04/21-04/22), for the Pepsi Tournament. The overall establishment is completely outdated. There were many malfunctions of the pin racking system along with the scoring system. There was so many malfunctions, I would estimated a total time of at least 30 additional minutes was added to tournament play due to the continuous scoring errors, pins needed to be re-racked, and ball returns called to the back.

The temperature Saturday was extremely cold inside, almost to an unbearable temperature. Sunday was much better and more tolerated.

The tournament staff/volunteers was very attentive on Saturday in regards to any needs on the lanes. Sunday was a little bit of a different story, as tournament staff/volunteers were noted to be standing around not paying as much attention, creating more delays in helping the bowlers than what was already occurring.

Bathrooms were disgusting and needed a deep clean. The smell was also radiating outside of the bathroom entrance.

Great job to the staff working behind the grill. For the amount of people they were serving, they kept up pretty well, food was hot, and also taste pretty good considering it was bowling alley food. The only recommendation I would make is to get the cashier a credit card machine so they don't have to continuously run back to the back to process payment. This may help speed along your ordering process.

This establishment might be fine for normal league play or fun bowl, but I would avoid for tournament. Some money definitely needs to be put back into this place for some much needed...

This was MY HUSBAND‘s And‘s first time in Fort Myers Florida and we were lucky enough to go to lightning strikes bowl and we went and an area to eat because we were very hungry. We met very nice manager of the place name Ari and an excellent server/bartender name, John, the atmosphere was very electric. They had a lot of TVs and they were playing every game. MY HUSBAND and I both appreciated. That drinks were super good and when I say that, I mean the liquor was in them I hate all these places that water down drinks and charge you enormous prices my husband had a chicken sandwich that he claims is one of the best he’s ever had and I bit into it and I would have to say the same First Things first it was huge that yummy crispy chicken was all outside of the bun. I think we could’ve had three chicken sandwiches out of that 1 it had good fresh fries. I could tell that they were not frozen. I had a BLT that was good as well , what I was told it served on potato bread because I asked what is this delicious bread .. ( yum ) so they have some fancy things going there .

so you can bowl there eat there and watch the football game and have a good drink and there was plenty of parking when we visit Florida again a place we will definitely go back to ask for the bartender John. He was awesome thank you so much for making people from California. Feel good at Lucky...
