Founded in 1958, this place is a near-Northside institution. Unfortunately, the place hasn't been…read moreproperly cared for nor kept up cosmetically. The lanes are tough, so if you want a 300 game, you're gonna have to keep traveling west. They are a challenge for real bowlers, but real bowlers are among a select few who bowls here. This place is relegated to a few sparse leagues for fun and children. Birthday parties are a norm on weekends. However, because they have like 30 or 40 lanes, there is always availability. In other bowling houses in town, league nights leave no room for open bowling. The only new additions come by way of juke box and video games. The bar hold regulars and has cheap prices on corporate brand beers, per the expected. The food is decent, but the appearance of the place makes one a little remiss to order anything that is going to actually go in your mouth. And most importantly, use the bathroom before you come; if it's an absolute emergency, and it will have to be, use the experience to work on the "how long can I hold my breath challenge" while you're in there. On the up side, should you have a lengthy number two, there is an ample amount of graffiti in the stalls to keep you occupied reading for quite some time.

One word: hilarious!…read more This is your typical bowling alley. Renovated not long ago so everything looks nice and new! Staff were really friendly. Shoe sizes run large. It was busy on a Saturday evening with a lot of groups with children. Pool and air hockey games available. Typical bowling alley food with a bar option. High tech screens for bowling and boy were they funny! You can take different pictures of yourself as a player and it displays on the screen. They do all sorts of silly cartoons with your face every time someone takes a turn. It was so funny and had our group laughing nonstop! We had a lot of fun there. Definitely recommend for groups and especially children!

For no particular reason, perhaps it was on a whim, I decided to drive the 20 minutes for me, down…read moreto Bloomington and check out their only bowling alley. It's the only one I'm aware of and for a city of this size, I would think there would be more than one. A Yelp search returns this location as the only bowling alley in Bloomington. It does not list the one on the IU campus probably because it is for students and not the public. The location was not so easy to find even with GPS. I missed the first turn because it didn't look like a street but more like a driveway. Eventually arriving close to my destination, I found the building is located behind a row of buildings on a main road and then set back out of sight on a side street to accommodate a large parking lot. Upon arrival I saw half of the overheard lights turned off making it rather dark inside. The counter person gave me an open lane sandwiched between two sets of young children. Out of 32 lanes, everyone was crammed into the last eight lanes all bunched up together. The other 24 lanes were empty on a day when no leagues were due to bowl per their website. Could I not get a lane without having to share the ball return with people that don't know proper bowling etiquette? It is customary to wait for the person next to you to take their turn so they have no distractions. This was not the case with both sets of people on either side of me, including the adults and the children. Then someone turned on the music on these large speakers mounted every ten feet or so. It was so loud people had to shout to be heard. I happen to be on a phone call and had to step outside the building to talk. I could not hear them and vice versa. If it was later in the evening I could understand but it in the middle of the afternoon. I wasn't there to party, I was trying to practice my bowling skills which takes concentration. I found it too difficult to concentrate with their blaring offensive music. Then there was the snack bar. It was closed! There were no alternatives. No vending machines providing liquid refreshments and a big sign on the door that said no outside food or drink is allowed. Is bowling a sport? Hydration during sporting events is not allowed here? I bowled four frames and left; never to return. I donated my remaining games to the children next to me.

After trying both Maillard Wood Fired Kitchen and StrEAT Kitchen, I think Social Food Hall deserves…read morea review of its own, because this place is much more than somewhere to grab a bite to eat. Located at 110 S. Main Street in downtown Elizabethtown, Social takes the food-court idea and gives it a serious upgrade. Instead of everybody in your group having to agree on one restaurant, there are multiple kitchens under the same roof. Currently that includes Maillard Wood Fired Kitchen for Neo-Neapolitan wood-fired pizza, StrEAT Kitchen for smash burgers and other street-food-style dishes, and Wasabi Bistro for made-to-order Japanese food. We've already tried Maillard's Italian Meats pizza and a bacon smash burger with Parmesan fries from StrEAT, and both were fantastic. So the hardest part may be deciding which direction to walk when you get hungry. But the thing that surprised me was everything else inside. There's a full bar and self-pour tap wall, plus duckpin bowling, pool upstairs, arcade games and pinball machines. And we're not talking about only new arcade games either. I spotted some real old-school machines, including NBA Jam, Fisherman's Bait and Track & Field. If you grew up feeding quarters into arcade machines, you may forget you originally came here to eat. The building itself is really cool too. It's a big open industrial-style space with high ceilings, exposed brick and plenty of different seating--from regular tables and long communal tables to more comfortable lounge-style areas. There's enough going on that a family or group could easily make an afternoon or evening out of it rather than just eating and leaving. I also like the concept because everybody doesn't have to want the same thing. Somebody wants wood-fired pizza? Done. Somebody wants a smash burger? Done. Somebody else wants Japanese? They've got that too. Then everyone meets back at the same table. That's a pretty smart setup. And based on our visit, the atmosphere was peaceful and enjoyable and the service we received was awesome. We never felt rushed, and it was the kind of place where you could hang around after eating instead of immediately heading for the door. Social Food Hall gets from us. Come hungry, bring some friends, and give yourself some extra time. You may go in planning to eat a pizza or burger and come out having eaten both, played NBA Jam, gone bowling and somehow lost half your afternoon. That's not a bad way to spend a day.

The Social is a two-story warehouse style eatery with multiple restaurant options, a game space…read more(upstairs) and a pull-your-own beer station. The space is open and welcoming. Decide what you want to eat, order, and find a seat. They offer a variety of food types - Pizza, Burgers, Asian, etc - so there's something for everyone. We chose smash burgers from the STREAT Kitchen. I got the Street Smash and upgraded my chips to tater tots. The burger comes on a large, Hawaiian bread type bun which holds up well with all that's going on in between the bun. The sauce they use is very flavorful with the pickles, cheese, and lettuce enhancing the taste of the burger. I highly recommend. Hubby got the American Smash and really enjoyed his as well. If we were staying in the area longer, I would come back to try other food and play some of the games.
