What an interesting concept! Throw a football at bowling pins while hanging with your friends. Simple and fun but harder than you think. There is a large parking lot for car loads of people so unlimited spaces for all you guests. It was $15/person, you get a lane to play in for as long as you want! You can bring your own food or have food delivered but alcohol has to be purchased there. They have this beer machine that fills your cup from the bottom so there are these signs that say font finger your cuphole that I just cracked up at every time I seen one. The reason is because the port will leak and you will lose all you beer. The staff was friendly, and the establishment was clean, even the bathrooms. we only played two games. My football skills are not like they once were. Great place for any occasion. Reasonable price for a great night out

Went for a team building event with my colleagues... had a great time! I suck a fowling, but it was a blast to just observe. Drinks were great and the ambiance was such a blast! I did finger the cup hole... and learned why this sign exists! Lol.. my poor friend felt the brunt of my poor choice!

We had a great time! There were lots of lanes available to choose from. We came for open play, so it was $12 a person, which is pretty reasonable. Having a bar there definitely made it more fun Staff was very nice- even when we accidentally stayed past closing time. This would be a great place to come for an older kiddos birthday party, or even a work event/party.

My family and friends met me here for my birthday. Never heard of this place or this sport but my sisters really wanted to check it out. We had a group of maybe 20, ranging in ages from 8 to 72. Luckily there was a full bar because this would've been a short lived activity. After everyone played a couple games we made up our own game(s) and just ran around in general. It's worth checking out, but I don't think I'd ever come back.

Some friends and I went to the Fowling Warehouse over the weekend to check it out and have some fun. We got there around 7:30 on a Friday and we were able to get an open lane right away. They have two sections each with about 18 lanes. We paid at the front and then someone explained to us how fowling works. There's no scoring, just whichever team knocks down all the pins first wins. There are a couple more rules but it's a very basic game and simple enough for anyone to pick up. The actual technique of throwing a football to hit the pins is a little more tricky, especially once there are only a couple pins left! We all had so much fun, even though it's not always easy as the football can bounce unpredictably at times. There is a large bar on each side of the hall and we never had to wait for drinks. They are a little pricey ($7 for a Tito's and soda) and can definitely add up quickly. Pro tip: keep an eye on your drinks and put them in a safe spot - we had multiple casualties from drinks being hit by footballs! The people working were friendly and quick to mop up the spilled drinks. There is plenty of seating in the bar areas if you want a break or if you bring in food. I had so much fun fowling and would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to do something a little different with a group of friends. It was awesome to see the diversity of people all playing this silly game and having a blast.

A large group of us came to open Fowling and really enjoyed it! The staff is very friendly and the place is setup nicely. There are tons of "lanes" and 2 large bars on both sides of the warehouse. Thy advertise that you can bring your own food or order delivery. We noticed a lot of people having pizza dropped off while they were playing. They take pride in having 150 types of beer and they also have large TVs to watch the games while you play. Overall, this is a new concept that finally made its way to Grand Rapids! Give them a shot.

Fowling lanes

I had such a fun time at the Fowling Warehouse! There are a two side of the facility and each side has around 14 lanes. The prices were really affordable, they have a nicely stocked bar, good drink selection and all though they don't have food you can order or bring food in. The space is great for kids and adults, the rules are super easy and the lanes are not too far from each other so even a non skilled thrower can hit some pins! I recommend this place for a group get together spot.

I think they forgot the "b" in the name…read more Since we live in Ada, we were understandably excited to have another potentially good place open nearby. We visited not long after they went live in 2021. It was busy inside and the service was understandably slow. I got the "Homemade Chili", which was apparently made in a condemned home because it was barely room-temperature. I sent it back and had to press my case to get that bacterial culture of a dish taken off the bill. My "Garage Burger" had a bun that was so stale, it clanked when I hit it against my plate. My beleaguered waitress stared at me when I did this and asked, comically, "do you want a new bun?" Why yes, yes I do - preferably one that can't be sharpened into a prison shank, my dear. As the volume in the place progressively increased, I watched another family with younger kids struggle with similar food issues. The dad at that table looked at me knowingly with something akin to PTSD in his eyes and then he abruptly plunked down some cash and gathered his family up and walked out. I paid with a credit card, so it took me a bit longer, but we all left without finishing our meals. I'm not going to say that the food here is a crime against humanity, but I'm going to think it really hard.

Came in around 1 on a Saturday. It was extremely busy and they seemed a bit understaffed. Sat at…read morethe bar and had good service though. Drink specials were good (2 Busch light drafts and $4 wells). My husband and I split the Italian sub which was pretty tasty, but it could've used more meat, especially for $17.

Passing hot food down instead of placing it in front in the one that ordered it. Never refilled our drinks. Then we move to the food. My prime rib was overcooked and completely cold. She did ask if she could prepare a new one and that one was even more overcooked so I sent that back so I had a baked potato and salad for dinner. Potato skins were so overcooked they were hard and tough to eat. My honey's ribs were decent but way over sauced. Never again.

Oh Tommy? What hath thou done with thine wings of chicken???!…read more Yuk! Here's the thing, I've been buying these wings for 30 years. So, corporate events lots of people etc. Then Covid and I haven't been in 3 years. What's happened is they've gone to a heavy batter. It's like you took KFC home. and boiled it in water! Not good for texture, or making friends. Used to be a slight batter, if only a patina on the skin. These things are like an 80 yearold goats wrinkly ball sac. Also, no complimentary celery and carrots? Wait staff person said, 'oh we've never done that.' B S! They Always did this. Tommy, remind your staff of what it's like to produce quality? Otherwise, we're just going to get another pot shop on 28th Street. Your place=weed. Don't let this be.

The $8.99 pepperoni large, add garlic butter crust for $1 is worth it. My goodness it was really darn good. And what a deal. Not sure if that has gone up since my visit several months ago, I mean there could be tariffs on pepperoni, but last time I was there it was $8.99. The Italian Sub was ok. Not the greatest ever but it was ok. The Mozz sticks were also just ok. The Pizza Sauce is really good here, and the Ranch is solid too. The Thin crust was meh, it lacked taste and seasoning. I would skip this. The Garlic Bread Sticks were pretty good, that I do recommend. Overall I enjoy this place and will come back during my visits to the area.

My partner ordered the perch dinner, which included a side salad for $25. The salad was sent back because it was sad. Some of the iceberg lettuce was discolored but the single piece of tomato was bright. The salad was exchanged for coleslaw. I ordered the fish and chips for $19 and a margarita for $9. Both fish dinners were soft, not crispy as expected. Same with the fries. All the food was warm but not hot. The margarita was like the ready-to-drink that you get at the grocery store (quite sweet). I'm glad we tried this place because it finally satisfied our curiosity. The potato chips were damn good.

The menu in the entrance features Rueben soup- a cup or a bowl. No price! Wait until you get the bill --$8.50 a CUP ! Thankfully, we didn't each order a Bowl! The soup was mediocre at best. After questioning the price, our Waitperson assured us that the bowl was chuck-full of Corned Beef, as if that alone justified the price! (And what else goes into Rueben soup?) The $4.00 split charge for plates will not entice diners to rush back! We split the wet burrito. The portion size would justify that added cost, but not in this case! I do have to give them a "thumbs up" on the drinks; but the price points on the rest of the menu are certainly not appealing!
