We went here to bowl and grab some "junk food" for lunch. We didn't get to bowl but that was ok it…read morewas a last minute decision and it is a busy place with families on vacation. We were pleasantly surprised at the food! It was DELICIOUS! my gkid said this is probably the best chicken strips and bowling food I have ever had and we agreed. We all three got different things and it was all great! I pointed to some men that had come in from work on their lunch break just to eat. I told my gkid, see they know this hidden secret about the food here. They are just here for lunch not any of the games. They have TV in dining area for sports. They have and arcade and bowling and pool tables. We ended up playing pool with the gkid showing him how to play. We had a blast. We were pleasantly surprised at all they have to offer and food was great! A definite come back next time we are in the area!

Great family place. I would highly recommend this for an indoor diversion. Friday and Saturday is…read morekaraoke night from 7-11pm. It will start later if the crowd is thin. After 8 it was busy and the tables were full of singers and their friends and family. This timeframe would make an excellent location for a teens bday. The kids seem to have a blast. The adult beverages were reasonably priced. They had bowling, an arcade, pool tables and a big covered patio area. Go!

If I would've written this review yesterday (6/25) it would have been a one star rating. Family…read morecame into town to celebrate a birthday for a grandchild. After a day of swimming and go-cart racing, they wanted to end the day with bowling for two separate parties or families but it did not happen due to lights going out as soon they sat down to play. They waited for an hour but no electricity so wanted a refund but none was given. The worker (Lisa) who acted like a manager, was rude, slamming a phone and other things around when she was told a refund was wanted- two separate refunds because it was paid separately for two separate parties ($70 each) but she said she could ONLY give gift certificates then she was trying to combine the $140 gift card then she got more violent with the phone and other things when she was told it would have to be separate. So today 6/26, I came back with the one party with the gift certificate. We were treated very courteously and very well by both Lukas and Collin. They let us know Lisa was just a worker there and was too lazy to reimburse the money. Then the one party who was already on their way back to South Dakota, called in and asked for reimbursement. Collin let them know if they came in and if he's on shift he would happily give the reimbursement. So with all that being said, I am torn in giving a four star and five star for this review. It depends on who's working here but if this rude worker (Lisa) was still here today I would give the one star and would not recommend this place but thanks to Lukas and Collin it will not.

$81 for five people to play two games?? How does this place stay open? It was over crowded and…read moreunder lit. We got a lane right next to six teenagers who acted like it was their first time out without parents. Obnoxious is the nicest way this old fella of 37 can put it. More than once the pins didn't reset properly and all the balls in the building (the ones we could find) seemed to be the heaviest they had. Fine by me, but kind of made it frustrating for my kids. BUT, the kids had a good time and didn't seem to pay any attention to the overwhelmingly loud and chaotic atmosphere. Also, they didn't have to pay so there's that. Glad we got it out of our system, but that was the first and last time we'll stop in. Seemed kind of exclusive too, not very welcoming to "outsiders"; like every lane was a league and we weren't members. No big deal though, you live you learn.

First and foremost, there is not much to do in Mt. Pleasant! Considering that, Pleasant Bowl is…read morepretty awesome and entertaining! This is an older bowling alley, nothing fancy, outdated computers (90s?). I kinda of enjoyed the outdated feel, it took me back to my childhood! It appeared as clean as can be expected of a bowling ally. They do have a smoking section in the pool area back in the back.From the lane we were on (7) I couldn't smell any smoke drifting into the non-smoking section (thankfully). They have a small bar (beer, shots, and a few mixed drinks) with great drink specials! They also offer snacks and drinks. If you come on certain nights they have bowling specials. Unfortunately, we did not come on one of these days! We played 3 games, the more games you play the cheaper it gets per person. 1 game is $5 per person. Shoes are $2. We didn't know the pricing was per person, so our bill for 3 games was way higher than we had originally calculated!! We will be back on a discount night from now on! Overall, if you need something fun to do while in Mt. Pleasant, this place will hit the spot!

WARNING: Unfriendly staff at Cosmic Bowling…read more I have to leave a one star review because of one old woman working there. She was rude, needlessly hostile, and enforcing an INSANE stipulation -- bear in mind, she is not the owner. As far as I understand, she had zero authority to do this. It truly seems like she was making this up and targeting me for some indiscernible reason. I went with my husband and his friends to watch them bowl, as a spectator. She came up to our table and demanded that I pay $10 to be there, even though I wasn't bowling myself. I've never seen this at any bowling alley and the friends we were with said they hadn't seen it either. Thankfully, we got this lunacy circumvented, but it put a damper on the night for me. What a way to make someone feel unwelcome. I even bought a drink out of their vending machine before this happened. I wasn't completely loitering. Unless this woman changes her tune or is fired, we're probably never coming back.
