Nice lil bowling alley not to crowded a nice assortment of house balls the kids liked the arcade (lil over priced) The only down fall was the kitchen guys a little slow and food lacked a little flair but it a bowling alley I'd give it a try it was fun for the whole family read more

I've left a review on HiWay Lanes in the past, however, since then, there have been a few changes. One of those changes being to the Pro Shop. The current pro shop is called: " SJ BOWLING PRO SHOP " -- It's run by a gentleman named Shawn. (317) 384-2212 He is informative, helpful, knowledgeable, and overall just a cool dude that loves to talk bowling & loves to help others that are interested in bowling, to find the right ball for them, the right shoes, accessories, etc. I definitely recommend checking his pro shop out if you're looking for a new ball, shoes, etc, or if you're just in the alley and want to drop in to say what's up. He has a great selection of bowling balls in stock, and if he doesn't have the one you're looking for on the shelf, he can order it direct to the store and drill it for you on the spot. read more

I really like this bowling alley. It has everything you could want in a bowling alley except free daycare for toddlers. I'm kidding about the daycare but everything else is A-OK. On weekdays before 5 pm, games only cost $3.75 Food and beverages are available. Score keeping systems are very up to date and fun. There is plenty of parking in their big lot. They have a very nice mini Pro Shop here where I got my bowling ball's holes adjusted by re-drilling one of them to fit my grip better. I bought a bowling ball "suitcase" from them which I did not know even existed until I saw them. It is a bag to put your ball in, plus a side pocket for your shoes and another pocket for a towel or whatnot and the whole thing had two wheels and a luggage type telescoping handle so you can wheel it from the car into the building. But it also has carrying handle if you prefer. Austin's Bar & Grill is inside. They have a large menu. If you order food they will deliver it to your lane so you can continue to bowl while you wait. There is a game room, lockers and Tom & Jerry's Barbershop. The barbershop door is located inside the bar area. The game room is being updated and will reopen next week. read more

I am a very casual bowler (VERY) so this review is from that perspective. I've been here for a handful of kids birthday parties, which is perfect for the ages we've been here for (5-10) and I'm sure older kids would enjoy it as well. The pizza is great, staff is friendly and helpful when there are issues. We've been once as a family and it was a little more expensive than I expected with shoe rental, but I can't say I know exactly what the normal cost would be. But the experience was still great, so as long as you plan ahead you'll have a good time. I've never seen the place too crazy busy, but maybe we're just hitting it at the right times. Overall, really nice place to spend some time as a family. read more

I would give this place a higher rating if they replaced their general manager! he's an absolute jerk. always in a bad mood & very disrespectful. Carter is fantastic! always polite & helpful. lanes are new but the pin setters are in desperate need of replacement. read more

Hi way lane is a fun bowling place in Franklin, IN. Lot of bowling lanes, friendly staff and decent selection of beer. They also have cocktails and Pepsi products. They have a decent menu for food but don't expect great good it'spstly finger food and ok quality. Had fun time playing and also stays busy on weekends so plan your trip accordingly. read more

Hi-Way Lanes - Bowling Near Me - Franklin, Indiana

Terrible customer service. Easton had a horrible attitude from start to finish and was extremely disrespectful the entire time. Instead of handling a simple lane mishap professionally, he chose to argue with us and give nothing but attitude. We tried to explain the situation calmly, but he refused to listen and kept being rude. Completely unacceptable behavior--would not recommend dealing with him at all. read more

The new arcade area is a great touch to keep the little entertained! Love the new addition read more

Great lanes the food is good as well the drinks are good also you'll have a great time it's a perfect place for big parties!!!

Kids were cussing and complaining about having to be at work at 8 and 9 am.. staff not very friendly, don't think any of them smiled. Bowling was fun. Was here for party, but wouldn't come back with kids. read more

My wife and I came here with my brother and my sister in law. We had a great time, and enjoyed the food, but the real highlight is the people running it. The manager (I think) was kind enough to run through all the deals he had to help me find the best value for my money. I didn't even ask him to do it. When I thanked him, he said "we like to treat people right." It shows. Hell of a place! read more

So we call to reserve a lane and told 1st come 1st serve. And at 6:00 they are at an hour and 45 min wait. We watched loads of people walk out.. all upset. So I ask you. How is your business plan working for you?? Cause I guarantee they will not be returning!! Myself included read more

We just had my 6 year olds birthday party. It was an excellent value and the price was great. The staff was great and the equipment was up to date. For a Saturday afternoon it was not busy and it was very clean. We did the birthday party special and had two pizzas, two pitchers of soda and my son got a bowling pin to sign. We had two lanes with 14 people. It was an awesome value and experience! read more

This is a very well run bowling alley. From the very personable staff to the hi tech facility, the evening is always fun at hiway. The place is packed on Saturday nights during cosmic bowl and we usually close the place down at midnight. Family size food is just perfect for sharing and the food quality represents the owners desire to provide a value to the customers. What a gem! read more

As far as bowling alleys go, this place is tough to beat. Perfect example; every wedensday night is college night at highway lanes. Its $5 for bowling from 8-1 in the morning. All drinks(soda) and pizzas are buy one get one free. You can get a large for $10 bucks. Basically, get a couple friends togther and for $10 bucks you can get a pizza,bowling, and something to drink. Also the alchol prices are pretty fair as domestic beers range from $2-3. Lastly, Highway Lanes is really clean and has two bars. One inside the bowling alley and one seperated from the building with a putt putt course, pool tables, darts, and your typical bar entertainment. Overall a great value and there are almost daily dollar game specials during the midday at Highway Lanes. Overall: GO! read more

its an okay bowling alley, but some employees give you wrong hours and if there's open bowling or not. i asked what time their pro shop was open someone told me 3-7 monday-wednesday when i go from indianapolis to franklin since southern bowl closed, and find out monday its open 12-4 so i was given wrong hours. nothing wrong other than some employees give you wrong hours read more

This place is great for group and family outings. We have been here twice for my boyfriend's birthday, and everyone always has a good time. Last year, I was able to make reservations for our group, but this year I was not able to do so because of the high demand for bowling on the weekends. I'm assuming that since a Greenwood bowling alley has closed within the past year, more people are flocking to Franklin to knock down some pins. We had a 2-hour wait for three lanes on a Saturday night around 7pm. I would give this place 4.5 stars if I could simply because of the miscommunication with staff when I was asking the best time to come in. If you want lanes after 5, then get there AT FIVE to put your name down on a list. Bar food and drinks are great and very recommended to pass the time. If you don't want to commit to more games than your arm/fingers/shoulder will allow, then you can pay for each game individual after you finish the one before. Overall, great place, great food, great drinks. read more

Great bowling alley! Great kids leagues! Good food! Lots for tv's, and music. Cosmic bowling, jackpot, leagues! Birthday parties! read more

Don't order a water at the bar, they will charge you a $1 for a fu*#ing foam cup! Should be 10 cents.

Best bowling complex in the area!

This place is always clean and the staff is always nice! We had a great time bowling and we had a group of all ages. Good prices and you can always catch a deal or coupon. read more

This was by far the nicest bowling facility I have ever been too. I came here from out of town, and was visiting family. Brought my bowling balls with me. The staff was first class and took time to size my kids up for a ball to use. They didn't like it so much, (meaning the bowling first time short attention span) but I enjoyed the time I was there. The place is incredibly maintained, wasn't all smokey, and they weren't blasting the music like other places I have been. I wish such a nice place was in the St. Louis area where I am from I would of continued bowling on leagues. They really make sure you feel welcome. Thanks for a great experience. read more

Great place for our 7 year old son's bday party. There were 34 children ages 2-12 and about 14 adults. There was plenty of pizza for everyone and more than enough space for seating and hanging out between frames. The bday party package was a very fair price for the number of guests we had. The manager was extremely friendly and attentive to us. He frequently checked on us and made sure everything was going well. read more

They have a clean venue, good food, great drink prices, and lots of savings to help you with games and shoe rental. I don't come here often but when I do I always have a great time. The staff is super nice and helpful (especially Tim!) and always make sure everything goes smmothly. I was just here for a birthday party and we had a blast! read more

This is a very well maintained, owner/operated business. My family has always had a great experience when visiting here and the owner is an extremely accessible and friendly man! read more

Called to ask if they had open bowling, 'Yes all night'. Showed up with my family to use their Groupon and all the sudden they had 2 leagues, large parties and several bookings.. The guy we spoke with was very rude, plus he made an older gentleman leave because he brought in a McDonalds cup. Needless to say, we left and will not come back, as well as mention our experience to everyone that asks about bowling in the area. Terrible Customer Service read more

Being in Columbus IN, this is the best possible place to go for bowling.... I have been there more than twice, and thoroughly enjoyed the bowlong there. read more

Very friendly staff! I've been here twice now and all the staff is very friendly and helpful. I always call first before coming to make sure there will be a lane available due to it being a small alley. read more

Pure excitement. Well maintained lanes, great food, friendly staff and good looking patrons. I bowled 203!

"Hi-Way Lanes is a great place for family time. They are one of the most affordable Bowling Alleys I've ever seen and the facilities are very modern. We also enjoy the pizza and food options. We don't let the kids play on their electronics while here so it's a great way to catch up on our week/month uninterrupted. Best of all, the ownership and staff are very friendly and helpful. Jason" read more

I absolutely love coming here every week. Wednesday's are awesome because they only cost a dollar a game. Plus the pizza here is surprisingly good. read more

Great place to take family the staff is friendly and they seem to always have a deal going to save u some money

I like this bowling alley... It needs a bit of sprucing up being an older place but still always fun there... Staff has always been pleasant... Will return again read more

Every time we have been here, everyone has been friendly and nice. We used the Groupon here and were pleased with the deal. The facility is nice and clean. As for the food, it's decent for bowling alley food. Anything we have ever had has been fresh and hasn't clearly been sitting there for a while. We have been here on a few occasions and have always enjoyed it. I would definitely come back. read more

We had our son's bday party at Hi-Way! You can't beat the specias! Always a good time. The only gripe is the music.. the kids put on crappy music and it is play too loud.. But if we didn't have the bday party, we probably wouldn't had noticed it... read more

Terrible business. Was made to feel uncomfortable and unwanted the entire night by 'Chuck'. Well worth the drive to Greenwood for a pleasant and fun experience. read more

A great place to take kids !! Also a fun place for adults to have pizza and beer while bowling. Friendly staff and reasonable prices.

Our family loves this bowling alley! Great, friendly staff and they always have great specials going on. My kid love it because the staff treats them like people, not annoyances. It is a perfect size, they have plenty of lanes, but I can still see my kids when they run from one end to the other! read more

I brought my large family and got two lanes. We had a great time! The music was good, the bowling alley was very clean, the shoes were clean and appeared to be pretty new, there were plenty of balls to choose from, and the staff was wonderful! All in all, we had a really awesome time and will definitely be back! read more

Our son had a fun and very happy Birthday party back in September. It was very convenient having the all inclusive Birthday package. It is the cleanest bowling alley I've ever been to. I would recommend that when someone makes an online party reservation that a confirmation email be sent back to the customer. read more
