Valley View Lanes — Attraction in Garden Grove

UPDATED REVIEW: My original review was 3 stars and very critical of the lack of staff to handle food orders there. The staff was always nice so it's nothing against them, but sadly there's always just one person handling food for the whole place...on a weekend! We were even encouraged to go elsewhere for food once because the wait was gonna be so long. (I actually appreciated the staff's kind honesty in that moment and I felt for them as they were so backed up) I just felt more staff were desperately needed to help with the food. I still feel that way after going there literally 3 weeks in a row for 3 different parties. However, I was pleased to see the management's response to this review so I decided to up it to 4 stars because the place really is a fun environment for kids and families. It's updated and clean and doesn't feel run down at all like bowling alleys can often feel. It's a really fun atmosphere for kids and I'm sure we'll be...

Pretty cool little place to go do some bowling. Not the best bowling alley I have been to but it for sure gets the job done.

It is quite small inside and there are only like twelve lanes or something like that. They also have a few arcade games setup towards the entrance and a few air hockey tables, as well as pool tables. They even have karaoke rooms which I did not expect. Pretty good time and they have something for everyone. Mind you, we only played one hour of bowling but it was still fun. The place is also pretty clean which is always welcome and the music they were playing was decent. A lot of stuff from the 2010s but it's all good haha.

I liked how they have free water too. You can get a water cup from the food counter and they will even give you a pitcher of water to take back to the lane.

Overall, great experience, had a good time and the workers were also really kind and made us feel welcome...

This place is more like a boutique bowling alley. It’s pretty small compared to other places, but is decorated super cute and trendy. It is still the soft opening so there are definitely things that need some improvement. Bowling next to some people that bowl a lot, they were mentioning that the lanes are smaller and everything is just more compact. They also did not like the strings that operate and control the pins. For the food, they definitely need some improvement. The pizza was sad and the tater tots were underdone, not to mention they do not have beer yet. For the prices they are charging, once they figure everything out, it will be a pricey but fun outing. I’ll...
