Triangle Bowl — Local services in Longview

Previous post: "My son and I had an awesome time eating pizza 🍕, playing the arcade games, and getting lots of tickets for fun prizes! He said he wanted to go back for his 7th birthday! I'd say it was a hit! 😀"

UPDATE: As promised, we Returned to triangle bowl for my son's 7th birthday party just last night. Cons: *They were unusually busy and understaffed. Which resulted in us waiting for pizza for over an hour. By the time we got it, It wasn't nearly as good as our last visit. Undercooked. I paid a $150 for their arcade package about 2 weeeks prior, so I figured everything would be quick and planned for. But when I arrived they Informed me that there was another $35 remainder. Customer service never informed me beforehand. *They did not allow us to bring the pinata that I paid $30 for so I ended up having to take that back. Since all they had was at 7 PM Reservation time, ended up having to switch around the whole party itinerary due to the pizza coming out so late. With young kids 7 PM is sort of late for a party. Some of these issues were out of their control and understandable. While some of them were not. PROS: My son had an absolute blast! It was a perfect venue for the kiddos and they had a great time picking out prizes with their tickets they won! The table space was ample enough room for our whole party. Although they were packed, It was great to be in a local business that was full of ppl of all walks of life. Old and young, families; all under one roof with tons of smiles and great times being had! We need more businesses like this in our...

It's nice & clean inside. There are 2 reasons why I didn't give it a higher rating though...

1. you can pay to rent a lane for an hour ($30 if I remember correctly). But if your hour is over when you are in the middle of bowling your 10th frame, they turn your game off! They've done that to us twice! 1 of the times there was mechanical issues on their end that delayed our game about 5min & that was never factored in.
2. I have a broken foot & had to have surgery on it. I'm still not allowed to put weight on it after almost 4wks. All of that to say, they DO NOT have their handicap restrooms noticeably marked. They are at the complete other side of the alley from the "regular" restrooms & they don't have a sign on the outside of the "regular" restrooms letting you know that there are handicap restrooms. It's not until you are leaving the restrooms that you would see the sign, as it's on the backside of the door. Other than that, there snacks that they serve are good. Plus if you have children you can never go wrong with the summer bowling...

Me and my family decided to try and have a nice family night together, so we drove to Triangle Bowl. Once we arrived at this bowling alley the first thing my family and I were presented with was several half dressed (practically nude) women surrounding a man drinking alcohol talking about getting drunk. This scene was displayed on multiple projector screens along the back wall. This is not what I need my family exposed to. Very disappointed! For those parents that are trying to raise there children in the nurture and admonition of Jesus Christ and all who don't want this same experience, I strongly recommend you do...
