We held a milestone celebration here for our construction crew, what a great experience!…read more First off all the staff were friendly, helpful and hospitable. This felt like a classic bowling alley- no gimmicks and no silliness. This place features a bar & grill, two pool tables, a fair amount of bowling lanes, and a small arcade. The dining area seating is plenty and the touchscreen displays at the lanes make setting up your games very easy. This place was clean, professional and didn't feel "corporate" if that makes sense. It definitely took me back to when I was a kid, bowling in a league with my uncles, very nostalgic. Our host gave us a quick rundown and rules which was great for anyone who had never been bowling before. Our party was pretty big (I think 30-40 people) but the staff was great in keeping up with our hungry carpenters. The food was good, I definitely rate it better than all bowling alley food I've ever had- but not quite "sit-down-restaurant" quality. That's OK, we were there to bowl and have fun. Everyone had a fantastic time. I highly recommend for group events, parties, dates or family fun. I leave one star off for parking- there is very limited parking and maybe I missed something but it seemed like the closest option was meter parking or up the block, most of our guys parked a block away in a public lot.

Bowling shoes were disgusting. Completely worn down, ill fitting, and looks like they haven't been…read morecleaned or replaced in decades. Not only that but the staff was rude, and were inconsistently enforcing wearing bowling shoes. Other bowlers had regular shoes on, but our party was told to wear their shoes or leave. When pointed out, staff said we were wrong. The lanes were inconsistently oiled, the balls were all chipped and low quality. Music was so loud, could barely hear my friends and I speak. Weird policy of charging credit cards at $50 increments. So a $5 dollar water is a $50 charge with a $45 dollar refund. Weird and strange policy. Added 1 star because the pins weren't held up by strings. Probably won't be back unless major changes are made.

Although I did have trouble trying to book a…read morepackage with the events team since that is the only way to book for larger parties I was stressed out if this party would happen or not since I did not hear back. But maybe it is also because I emailed them too late? Besides that, my friend and I tried to do a surprise birthday party for my partner on the weekend. Come prepared because the wait can be long! The grand star for making this even happen is Melanie, she was super helpful and empathetic hearing my stressful mess as this was a last second resort. She told us 2 lane's aren't guarantee to be next to each other since there was a long wait but would try her best, understandable it is the weekend. Thankfully it all worked out we played for about 2 hours before our arms gave out. My partner was so happy to be here and spend it at Highland park bowl. Our server Carlos was also fantastic and gave us recommendations on what to order. They had this peach pizza that was so divine, can never go wrong with a classic margarita pizza. For a bowling alley I honestly did not expect their menu to be this tasty! I will say their drink menu is decent. They have a nice pool room with some arcade games, so you can never really get bored at this establishment. We all had a great time here no complaints we will be back and try again with there party email.

Note: This review is for the dining experience only. We did not bowl…read more I came here for the first time ever, and left wishing I came sooner! Hands down, without a doubt, best bowling alley food I've ever had in my existence. I'll start with the pizza because pizza is my favorite food. I was hesitant because I was at a bowling alley and I guess I've never had good food at a bowling alley until now. But when I looked around at all the pizza being served to different tables I just had to try it. I ordered the pepperoni pizza, and honestly it was sublime. I loved it. It was thin, crispy crust, good sauce, good cheese, good pepperoni. I devoured it. This pizza is better than most pizzas. I enjoyed it just as much as I have enjoyed Wildcrust, possibly enjoyed it more. Simply put, Highland Park Bowl makes a great pizza. Also got the calamari. Truly didn't have high expectations, maybe because I was at a bowling alley, but this calamari was shockingly good to me. Way better than expected, and would 100% order it again the next time I'm here. Additionally it was a pretty good sized portion. My wife ordered the burger and fries. She loved it. I tried it. I loved it. Fries were amazing. Would order it again for sure. The ambience is very cool. Had no idea this place has been around for like a century. Loved the vintage feel. So much character. Staff were super friendly. Although I think they may have been short staffed when we went. It seemed like there was only one server taking care of the whole place. She was really nice though and our food came out surprisingly quick. Came at 5:30pm on a Thursday and parked on the street right out front. Street parking is 1hr up until 8pm I believe. We were in and out of there in less than an hour. I timed it haha. Loved coming here and will be back sometime!

Bowlero is a pretty dated bowling alley but you can tell they tried to modernize it a bit. We were…read morethere for a holiday party and overall had a great time. The food was better then I expected. The pizzas were a thumbs down but the wings, salad and mozerella sticks were all quite good. The server who was our main contact was good. The manager on duty was very nice and helped me get a heavier ball from the back for my other half. My one complaint would be the gal behind the bar could have been friendlier. There was plenty of parking in their lot. They are located behind Islands and across the street from Panda Inn.

It was a busy night apparently, but the lane next to us was empty for the duration of the time we were there. Interesting, but whatever. My cousin, who competes in local competitions, said the lanes are kind of whack as the pins go down a bit too easily and reward the crappier players. Not sure what he meant by that, but I did bowl better than my usual average of 65. Prices are decent and we took advantage of the 3-game special where the third game is half-off. Balls are in pretty decent shape and they have small to X large for everyone. Pro tip: there's a pretty good bar in here, sort of a hidden spot for locals here. If the usual popular sports bars are too crowded when a big game is on, I usually just come here. Lots of beer on tap, the screens are pretty large, and their burgers and fries are pretty good. Their cocktails are pretty solid as well. Happy rolling!

Not bad. We did like the place, we just did not like that it smelled a bit funky inside (not…read morebecause of the shoes and etc) Stuff seemed pretty nice, plus they offered water.

It has cool neon and they have specials all the time so check their webpage. The lanes are great and everything is very clean. Now, there is not a ton of space between lanes so you may be sharing a table with the guy next to you. That is fine. The people are very nice. I love the service there. It is not a huge wait for anything. Parking is in a lot for a fee. And we love the food. We have had dinner there more than once. They have a great selection of snacks and some great food. You can order a little or a whole tray of food for sharing. Their Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla is the bomb. Try this place. I have such fun there.

My first time at Action Lanes within Midway Plaza in El Monte was through a Yelp event. Glad I was…read moregiven the opportunity to enjoy bowling. Thanks Yelp! I came back on a separate day to offer my patronage and support. Parking is plentiful. Interior has an old school look and feel to it. Quite nostalgic! Very clean and organized, but not super bright. Most house bowling balls were old, dirty, and chipped. I don't use a house ball since I have my own personal bowling ball. They may want to invest in some new balls... just saying. Their bowling games were $9.50 per game that Saturday night. I ended up not bowling. I would love to return to take advantage of their Early Bird Special at $4.75 per game which is a great deal from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM on the weekend. League rate is $5.00 per game which is a steal, too (please note league must be hosted by Action Lanes to qualify). Bowling shoes are $5.00 per pair which isn't bad, but I have my own shoes so I don't need them. Please check out their other rates and promos online. When I was here, I had a wonderful conversation with Caleb. He was working behind the counter. Super friendly and nice young man. He gave me the scoop on which nights have leagues and when it was best to come here for best deals. Thanks Caleb! I didn't want to leave without supporting them. There's a boba shop inside the bowling alley, but they were closed at the time. I ended up buying one A&W Rootbeer from the vending machine. It wasn't a lot, but it was something. Quite a refreshing drink! I love bowling so I'll definitely be back to bowl. Thanks Action Lanes!

They have different set prices all days of the week so be sure to cadvantage of those if you're an avid bowler or want to come here with a group. The food here is actually decent. My husband and I ordered the popcorn chicken to share. As you can see from the photos, the attention to detail was there. From the golden brown color and seasoning on every piece. This was a perfect snack after an hour of bowling. I would order this again! Parking is shared with the other businesses in the plaza. It is large so you won't have to worry about not finding a spot. The business wasn't as busy when we came here during the week. There were a few lanes still open when we arrived. Overall, I recommend this spot. Whether you're a novice or a professional bowler, it's a great place to hang! If it weren't for the Yelp Elite Event held here, I wouldn't have thought to come back. Thanks, Action Lanes! See you again soon!

We came here for a birthday party and the kids had a blast!…read more The party is a 2 hour window and they let you now what time your laser tag games will be. Make sure your whole group is together before start time so you all play at the same time and no one misses out. Our group was a bunch of 5/6/7 year olds and the group they played against was 10-12 year olds so I felt like that was a little unfair but no one got seriously hurt so that's all you can ask for. My least favorite part was the arcade. Some of the games weren't working so that's a bust. Our kids were too young to use the VR game so it would have been nice if they got to ride the bumper cars twice instead of just losing out on that. On top of that there was only one person staffing the VR game, the mini bowling and the bumper cars so it was like 10-15 minutes between each option and there were only maybe 8 bumper cars so when there's a line the kids had to wait about 20 minutes just to ride the bumper cars. There were lines for the bumper cars and the VR so no one used the bowling because there wasn't enough staff. The pizza was fine, I believe you can order other stuff outside the party pizza if you want.
