Our go to bowling alley near Lancaster! The staff is always friendly and attentive and the bowling alley is attached to a restaurant/bar called Hennigans so you can get drinks and food while you bowl (one of the best perks in my opinion). They even have quarter game night on Sunday nights, which is perfect for date night!

Went on New Years Eve for bowling event from 6-9. Kids had a great time with "early" countdown to new year. When/If there was a problem with your lane they were there before having to be notified. Staff was great! They also have a bar if a cocktail helps your bowling score!

I've always enjoyed coming here. Fun, relaxing atmosphere, didn't get hassled by covid restrictions. Recently renovated, place looks great. Super clean, excited to try the new virtual golf they are building.

Staff had masks. Not a single person wore a mask other than staff. I don't fault them as they don't get paid to tell people what to do. Staff is great, lanes are average, food is good. Customers are terrible.
