Polar Bowl — Local services in Alaska

It's your typical bowling alley for a base. Nice and big, plenty of lines with standard prices and specials. Nice for a family outing or league play.

Food is pretty meh, not the greatest experience. Bar was decent for liquor and bottles, but draft selection was pretty bad. Prices for a pitcher are really high.
