There are a few different bowling alleys in town, and this one is the oldest. My siblings worked here as teenagers over 25 years ago, and the place hasn't changed much since that time. It's got an old-school vibe, which is nice, but it's got a few more rules than everywhere else. For example, they only let very small kids use the bumpers, and they only let very small kids use the lighter bowling balls. The other places in town don't have those rules, and our young tween kids appreciate the lighter bowling balls and the ability to use the bumpers elsewhere.

If you need balls lighter than 10 lb, you need to ask for them behind the counter. This is important if you have small kids who struggle lugging around let alone bowling with a 10 pounder. The staff here though was fantastic! Really friendly, extremely helpful, and clear with expectations on wait times and prices.
