Nice facilities. Took my two young grandchildren for a Saturday outing. The staff was friendly and welcoming. My older grandson managed to throw several gutter balls (the gutter guards were up). The staff was accommodating and understanding, and retrieved the stuck bowling balls without complaint. read more

2 older ladies at the front desk gave us attitude as soon as we walked in.. then when two of our members werent wearing bowling shoes, we were told to NOT bowl unless we got shoes yet there was people around us BOWLING without bowling shoes as well and WE only got told something.. I dont want to call it but we were the only people of color at this place.. call it what u want but on my part I saw this as racisim. read more

Overall I enjoyed bowling here and the cost was comfortable. Great thing about this place, they allowed us to make a reservation ahead of time and did not have to put a deposit down. When we started bowling, I noticed the bowling balls were greasier than other bowling places we have been too. The people next to us brought in a small towel to wipe them down. We will be doing this next time, as I was a bit worried about staining my clothes because I wiped my hands on my jeans every time it was my turn. After speaking to one of them, they mentioned that happens when they go through the chute. Area was clean and they sell beer and food. Breck Palisade peach Beer was great but did not get to try their food. My only issue was that it was so hot. I am not sure if their ventilation system failed, but even if they were to open the doors, this would have helped. read more

Centennial Lanes - Bowling Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

We did a last minute bday party here are really appreciated that they were able to squeeze us in. the staff was wonderful and the bartender kept telling us how to order to get the best bang for our buck. This place is old school but clean. read more

This is a classic bowling alley right outa the 50s. It's clean with just the right amount of grease everywhere. The staff is competent and slightly salty. The lane electronics work well and have a classic old school look with oddball cartoons built in. There is a small arcade. There is a decent pool hall. Didn't get food but I'd expect greasy-spoon quality (perfect). Double rum and coke was $10. It is old. Everything works. It is clean enough. It is classic. It's hard to find places like this anymore. Totally freaking love it. read more

A friendly and clean bowling alley. Staff was great. Everything was in working order. My family had a great time. We will definitely be back. read more

Centennial Lanes - Bowling Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

This is a Longmont hidden jewel! If you remember the days of League bowling, video games in the back, and a plate of nachos covered in jalapeños at the counter constituting a solid bowling alley than this is your place! I'll take Centennial Lanes and real bowling over the overpriced Summit or Dave and Busters any day of the week. Centennial is what a bowling alley is supposed to be! read more

Holy cow, buckle in folks. There's a lot to report here. First off, the remodel is AWESOME! I've been coming to these lanes since I was a kid and I have seen it in various stages of acceptable, awful, and omg ewwww. Since the remodel they've upgraded the lane seating to these great booths you can eat and drink in and idk how they did it but they were able to purge out two decades of heavy smoke, beer spills, and questionable cleaning/hygiene from the ambience. Well done, Centennial Lanes! Second, (and this is a hot tip) be nice to Carol the manager. Is she surly? Is she brusque? Yes on both counts, but just go in there knowing that! Be kind, be cheerful, know your shoe size and keep things easy and Carol is not a problem! She'll get you shoe-d up and down to your gorgeous, clean, new waiting lane lickety-split. Which leads me to hot tip #2- call ahead!! They take reservations now, so there's no waiting for a lane! Is this McDonald's? Because I'm loving it. Next up: the snack bar. I gotta say after years of experience with not only this bowling alley but others, I was hesitant to order anything. But my crew was hungry and we were filled with an ebullient, devil-may-care joie de vivre that can only bubble up from an open Saturday afternoon where we were able to get a lane. So why not? Why not, indeed! The snack bar crew are super sweet and I'm not ashamed to tell you that the cheese curds were on point, the fried pickle fries were so good I'm writing a review, and the hot dogs! Holy mackerel, the hot dogs! The bun is toasted up and the dogs are scored, these are legit awesome hot dogs. My only gripe would be: more condiments. For hot dogs this good only ketchup & mustard aren't enough. If they upped their condiment game (I'm looking at you: mayo, relish, and kraut) these could be the best hot dogs in town (watch out, Marco's)!! But for the price, I will not complain there wasn't a condiment bar. Super yum. As for the bar... well... just be prepared to wait a bit. Which can be anxiety-inducing as you know it's your turn coming up or Dangit, RIGHT NOW, and ugh, you've paid for the lane by the minute so every minute waiting is a minute you're not ensconced in the action in your fantastic little booth. But just be patient. The bartender may be new. He's definitely not used to slinging drinks from multiple people. They have a nice selection of beers, but we were at a bowling alley sucking back hot dogs and sticking our fingers into holes only god knows who else have touched-- we ordered a pitcher of Bud Light. It was perfect. All in all, for a fun family afternoon at a reasonable price in Longmont, this place was awesome!! Will definitely return. read more

The new remodel is AWESOME!!! Much cleaner and fresh! Atmosphere while bowling great! However, the manager (Carol) who was running the front desk, was by far the most hateful person I've encountered at a business in a very long time. Really to bad, the first encounter with an intolerable and rude employee set the tone to ruin family time! I would recommend spending the extra time and driving a little further to be treated like a human human being, and with a little respect and kindness! read more

Overall clean place and a good place to take a large group. A friend and I had an interesting interaction with an older male employee while standing at the snack bar. We were standing off to the side waiting for the man to take the order of the couple, but they were still looking at the menu so we came forward to start asking for a refill and he snapped at us and said that we could not get service until the couple behind us ordered. The couple then can forward and said that we could go first, but he still insisted that we would have to wait. read more

They told us that we couldn't have bumpers because "Bumpers are for little kids, not you ". The amount of disrespect on my friends birthday was crazy!! Do not go here they are rude and disrespectful to the people who pay to be here. read more

Bowling Business Centennial Lanes isn't really my cup of tea. This establishment will have you pay after your done which I don't find very nice. I wanted one game since I have kids that enjoy tossing bowling balls around but when the 5th pain is up, they aren't as interested anymore. We got to the end of our first game and was wrapping it up but my son decided to start a new game and rolled the ball down the lane. Once that happens, you gotta pay for that new game you played. Sneaky sneaky. Why don't they just take my money and end it after the game(s) I paid for?! The price is reasonable. $3.75 per person per game. They don't mention it's for every person you add on the screen so be careful. I was pretty peeved about that. Shoes are free for kids but I'm not sure of the age or size limit on that. Adult shoes are also about $3.75. They also have a little snack/bar area where you can grab some munchies and brews. Not the best place to eat or drink. The food is your typical fried food and appetizers. You can't go extremely wrong but it sure isn't gourmet. The pricing for food is on a high side but you can always order a pizza from a local joint. I think you can even have "Blackjacks" deliver. Never tried it but other people seem to do it especially for birthday parties. Beer is another story. If you must guzzle, go for it! The prices can be pretty good. The staff I've encountered was pretty nice. There are a few that can be a little rude and not so personable. Nowhere close to being my favorite place to get my bowl on but they are local! read more

Centennial Lanes in Longmont is your run-of-the-mill bowling place, greasy food and annoying emcees and all. The bar here is seriously a joke. Nonetheless, the cheap brew flows like water here: ahoy budlight! On the positive side, this place is big enough so that I've never had to wait for a lane, and the prices are decent so you get 3 stars. read more

Centennial Lanes - http://www.centennial-lanes.com/images/Centennial-Sign2.jpg - Bowling Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Lanes were really short and the ball return was a little wonky, balls kept getting stuck. The kid ramps were really worn down and never sent the ball straight. The 7$ pizza was burnt and not good at all and took like 25 minutes. The good on the other hand are the bumpers coming up automatically for certain people is cool, the staff was very friendly and games/shoes were very cheap. 3.75$ a person. read more

Centennial Lanes - Bowling Alley - Bowling Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

If i could put 0 stars i would. My friends and I went out on a friday night (03/26/2021) did an hour of bowling and had some beers afterwards. The "manager" as she calls herself constantly kept eyeing us as if we were doing something wrong and then came up to us took our drinks off the table (while they were still full) and demanded for our IDs after already showing them when buying our drinks. She ripped (literally ripped ) our IDs out of our hands and walked away with them. She didn't even bring them back someone else had to. She was very rude since the beginning from renting our shoes to leaving the building. I would not recommend coming here. Definitely not coming back. read more

Maybe reviewing a bowling alley without being able to review the beer is silly, but I am a nerd and I like bowling for bowling's sake and this alley is cool! First of all, they had a 13 pound ball, which is rare - usually alleys only have 12s and 14s. This intermediate-weighted ball caused me to bowl a ridiculously uncharacteristic 208 in one game. The machine never malfunctioned, the scoring was always right, the computer didn't screw up during those spare - one extra roll tenth frame thing that computers always screw up on. The lanes were even. The setup was easy. The dude behind the counter was nice to us even though we didn't know how many lanes we wanted or how many people in our party. And it was Easter... and they were open! read more

Really? Go anywhere else!!!!! Drive to Louisville, Broomfield or even Loveland & save money! What a rip off! Whatever you do: Do NOT add additional people to your game they will charge you like crazy, per added bowler! I played 3 games with 1 other person and they charged me $42!!!! Also would not cut me a break for not knowing they did this... Horrible customer service! Don't waste your money go elsewhere! In Denver you pay for games not people playing.. read more

Came here for a family fun event! Our young family of four loved this place! It was clean, employees were super nice and the machines worked great! We aren't league people but for a family outing this place is great! read more

Centennial Lanes - Great ball selection and clean well oiled lanes - Bowling Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Great Bowling Alley! I have been going once a week for 7 weeks now with my Son. If a lane is not working right..... they get down there and figure it out ..... cheap entertainment! read more

Friendly, clean bowling alley. They have a decent kitchen, and offer various fried foods including my favorite, fried mushrooms! Good portions for the price, and made fresh to order. The lanes and everything was in good working order, and had a great time. Great place to bring a family! read more

I wouldn't choose any other bowling alley over this one. Service is great, the food is great, and everything works great! Definitely my favorite bowling alley. read more

The man up front was truly, truly atrocious. The bowling balls kept getting stuck which caused us to lose a good 20 minutes in our game which led us to having to buy another game while losing the one we were on. We asked what we could do about this and he basically said "oh well." This happened twice. Lost about $20. One positive was the woman working the food was great. read more

Centennial Lanes is a big bowling alley, 32 lanes, and is usually pretty busy although we've only had to wait once. The lanes are well taken care of and the facility is clean and family friendly. They run heavy oil on the lanes, more than any other local lane so be sure to bring a ball for those conditions. The food is fine. The beer selection is pretty weak given Colorado is craft beer heaven but it's probably what the locals ask for so I can hardly blame the owner although I'd definitely like to see better beer selection there, even if they had to pour it from bottles. I've edited this after bowling here a LOT and I think this may be one of the best bowling alleys in the northern front range. The owner really cares about the bowlers and goes out of his way to make sure you're having a good time. Amended my review to 5 stars. A further amendment. They've gotten a selection of local craft beer as well so, seriously, no complaints. Best bowling alley I've bowled at. read more

Yeah, I'll say it - I've become a regular. After trying out the few other bowling alleys in neighboring towns, I decided Centennial Lanes was my favorite. Friendly staff, well maintained lanes and machinery, clean, and cute funny graphics that come up on the screen after each bowl. Plus, best prices around. read more

By far my favorite bowling alley! My family is very into bowling (lots of leagues and tournaments). We would not go any where else!

Family owned and operated, awesome customer service and friendly employees. Great place to grab a quick burger. Enjoy a game of pool or play some pinball or video games. Parking or lane availability in never an issue. Don A. took a few minutes to give me some bowling tips since I had not bowled for quit a few years. read more

I give this 6 stars, it's the best place that I have ever been!!!! The boys there are so hot, atleast last thursday they were. I would eat all the food if I had money and I love how all the balls come in different colors. The shoes there are great, they even had my size and I just love this place. But i hated the color of all the balls. they were hot pink, yellow and blue. how ICKY!!!!! buti got a strike everytime so this bowling ally is the bomb. you should come with me and all m friends, we go every thursday!!! we wear are speedos so u can find us!!!! hope to see you there ~love lilly allen read more

Fist time bowling here and was let down. When we got there they said $5 cover charge per person plus shoe rental. $2.50 per game. Ok so we agreed on that. Once you're done and go pay they change it to $2.50 per game per person. (The flyer they have only says per game) Like really why didn't you say that at first? Seriously a rip off. My brother went the week before with his kids and they did charge him the $2.50 per game not per person. He tried arguing that today and they only called the cops giving him two choices pay or theft ticket. Never this place again! We'll drive the extra miles for steady rates. read more

Worst bowling ally! Chinese owner cussed at us because we didn't know to prepay because no one said anything and then they wanted us to pay $34 for not even an hour!!! Plus 7.50 for each pair of shoes. So unprofessional and ridiculous. We will NOT be returning. And the owner should really learn some customer service, disgusting man. read more

We have loved coming to this bowling alley for a few years. Exactly what you would expect from a regular bowling alley. We did have a poor experience with the service this most recent visit. We ordered a Burger which comes with chips and you can pay extra to have french fries. We paid the extra for fries, and what we received was a raw burger with seriously about 8 or 9 french fries. We went up to ask if we should still receive chips with the meal considering it did not say upgrade or replace, and considering the fact that we received the smallest amount of fries that we had to pay extra for. The lady at the counter was not friendly and just basically said no one has ever complained before. Eventually she gave us a small handful of chips but was not happy about it. We used to receive a nice amount of fries with our burger. So we couldn't eat our raw burger and filled up on 9 fries and a few chips. Most likely will not return. read more

What's not to like, great staff, great lanes (new up to date equipment, they just put in new lanes last year - 2010). Great fun bowling Sat night with all the cool lights. Each lane has pull out bumpers to keep the ball from going in the gutter, great for kids and first time bowlers. Always special deals, just ask. There is a league for everyone, from beer leagues to a very competitive scratch league (avg bowler in the scratch league is 200, with high bowler avg of 240). The better the bowler you are, the more you will appreicate Centennial Lanes. read more

We had a kid bday party last weekend, everyone had an excellent time, pizza and cake were brought just in time... everything was perfect!! Great service read more

If you think their bar is a joke, you haven't been to Centennial Lanes recently. They have done a nice job with their updates and it is a great place to bowl. read more
