Reviewing for the volleyball dome which was super cool. Pretty affordable to rent per hour especially if you have a big group. Huge, temperature controlled space with sand and adjustable volleyball nets. We brought spikeball as well and there is plenty of space for whatever. The sand was clean and easy to maneuver on. There are picnic tables and a speaker connected to Sirius radio. If we needed help it was easy to find a staff member inside. We didn't get food from the bar but it was an option. read more

We really came for the brick oven pizza....but didn't realize it is just a walkup window. We kind of thought it was like in the bar in the bowling alley. So we laced up and bowled too! The pizza was worth the trip. The toppings were plentiful, the crust cooked to perfection and I really liked the ranch. We had the italian salad which was good but I'd probably try another one next time. We were there on a Saturday in between league times and appreciated being squeezed in on an end lane. We were able to get a couple games in at a great price. The lane scoring did malfunction a few times and that was frustrating but the employee helped us correct it right away. read more

Great pizza and decent bowling atmosphere! Service was okay. The bar lady was very nice. They also have a 365 indoor sand volleyball tent next door. My company had a happy hour here and we rented the place out for a few hours- we had a great time. read more

Some friends and I bowled here on September 28, 2019. We got there around 4pm. The regular special they had going was 2 hours of bowling + shoes for $50. There were 4 of us, so this was a steal! We bowled close to 4 games in that time! They got marked down because there were already 6-7 balls on the return rack in the lane we were assigned to use. No one had put them up at the end of bowling. The tables were dirty with cups and crumbs all over the place. So that was annoying since we were going to order food. They weren't busy, at all. So I couldn't understand why someone wasn't on top of this basic housekeeping and putting balls back up. Also, it took a long time to get a pitcher of Pepsi. The girl working the counter couldn't find a pitcher. So again, annoying. Overall not a bad experience. We did have issues with the attached pizza place, but I've left a review for them as well under that business. read more

We love, king pin! I've been going since before the days of the king pen, and the original Carrollton bowl. Kingpin has definitely upgraded since Carrollton. The addition of the pizza place is a fabulous choice. The bowling is fun. The staff is always nice to have a very well stocked bar with Gray. Bartending staff. read more

It's a incredible place to eat and bowl. With some great bartenders. Plus they have decent prices and video games

Great afternoon of bowling with the family. Good lanes and great staff! Also very well maintained! read more

Kingpin Lanes - Sports Bars Near Me - Bridgeton, Missouri

Don't play volleyball here. We paid our league fees, won playoffs, and they refused to give us the shirts we won. They also kicked us out of the league because we were outsiders who won. We played the same three teams over and over. Competition is weak. read more

We had a birthday party here for my two sons. The bowling alley wasn't busy so they had no problem getting us two lanes at short notice. I appreciated that we were still able to get the birthday party deal. We were treated nicely and attended to the entire time. The food is always really good for bowling alley food. The attendant on the restaurant side seemed a little frazzled but other than that no complaints. We will be back for sure! read more

I'm a bowler, my family are bowlers, so bowling is a pretty common thing for me historically, but I don't do it as often now as I would like. Kingpin is one of the few bowling alleys in North County and it's a pretty solid bowling alley. I like the set-up and that each lane has an ample amount of space at the lane. 1 thing I really didn't care for is the location of the "house" balls to bowl with. They are located within the bowling lanes, so in instances when there are leagues playing, you have to disturb the bowlers in order to get a ball. Not a fan. Outside of that, overall enjoyed the experience here. read more

I love Kingpin Lanes!!! I am NOT a bowler by any stretch of the imagination...as a matter of fact, I stink at it. However, during our most recent trip to St. Louis, we had a Groupon for Kingpin Lanes and we decided to redeem it during a rainy day and we had such a great time! The place itself is very clean and colorful, the shoes all looked practically new, the music that was playing was appropriate for ALL ages. The staff for both the lanes and the adjacent Brickhouse Pizza Company were so friendly they made us feel totally welcome. We bowled for a couple of hours and were really sad to leave. And as for Brickhouse Pizza Company, that was some GOOD pizza! We loved it, and we are VERY picky about pizza. We were expecting subpar bowling alley food, like we normally get in Chicago - but we got some really good thin crust pizza made with Mozzarella! This made an already awesome afternoon, even better! This place, even though it is a little far from our usual "go to" hotel, will be on our "places to visit" when we are in town. read more

I came to Kingpin Lanes for a work outing, and I really wanted to like it. I mean, it was free for me, and there was food and drink included as well. What's not to like? The staff and the facilities, right? The facilties were just fun. Nothing out of the ordinary. It's a pretty typical, maintained bowling alley. Guess you've figured where that leaves us. The staff. We had a busted lane, and when I explained what was happening to one of the staff there, one of the first things he said was "Well, usually we find these sorts of problems to be user error" with a smug look on his face. So I explained again - the computer on the lane would randomly jump to the middle of the frame, reset the pins on the second bowl of the frame, or God willing, actually work properly. He kept explaining what I already knew like I was an idiot. Yes, I understood what the problem was. What HE didn't seem to understand is that we were resetting the frame as necessary to get on track, and it kept happening. It wasn't something we were doing. It was pretty infuriating. I'd assume if you had a working lane, Kingpin Lanes would be a fine spot, but if you have to deal with some issues, don't expect much help or sympathy from the staff. read more

Had a great off-site team-building day here. Good food/drinks and looks much better (surprisingly better) on the inside....staff was attentive and put us down by ourselves so we could be a little rowdy for 11:30 in the morning.....highly recommend for a place to blow off some steam! read more

I wanted to start this review by saying that I have yet to actually bowl at Kingpin lanes, but it seems like if I did bowl there, I would thoroughly enjoy it. The lanes are well-lit and up-to-date with the most current technology, and the whole place is very clean and welcoming. It seems like the perfect place to bowl, whether you are with a small group or your entire extended family. I also like the fact that there were TVs everywhere with various sporting events playing, including soccer. What really makes this bowling alley unique is that in addition to having a snack bar with your traditional bowling alley fare such as nachos and hot dogs, they also have their very own pizzeria, which has it's own moniker (Brickhouse), and seems to operate independently as a business within a business, so to speak. So, how is the food at Brickhouse, you ask? I would answer that it's good enough to draw me to a bowling alley on several occasions in which I had no intention to bowl. In other words, it's very good. They have a rather extensive menu for a restaurant that operates from within a bowling alley, including a number of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, and desserts, in addition to their pizza, the dough of which is made fresh daily. They seem to pay very close attention to the quality and freshness of their ingredients, and it's this attention to freshness that sets them apart from some other local pizzerias and allows them to stand on their own as a great place to eat. The sandwiches that I have tried so far are excellent. The Tuscan Chicken, made with fresh chunks of chicken, bacon pieces, provelone cheese, and barbeque sauce, was absolutely exquisite, and will definitely keep me coming back. Though I still need to come back to try their pizza. The girls who work at Brickhouse, and the people who work at Kingpin in general are all very nice and friendly, not to mention attentive and expedient. I am greeted cheerily every time I walk in there, and the girls at Brickhouse take my order promptly and make my food quickly and attentively. And the prices are very reasonable, so I will definitely be coming back to Kingpin sometime soon. Maybe next time I'll stick around long enough to bowl a few games and try their delectable-smelling pizza! So if you're in the area and have a craving for something fresh and delicious for lunch or dinner, or if you're just looking for a new place to bowl a few games after work, consider giving Kingpin lanes a shot. I assure you, you won't be disappointed. read more

My husband and granddaughter and I had a good time bowling. This was our first time coming here and we were impressed with the smoke free environment as well as the cleanliness and great customer service. We will come back again. read more

This place is fun. We have an annual trip here with work friends. Service seems mostly good. The lanes seem to play well, but I'm no expert. My friends who play bowling league had different experiences adjusting to these lanes. One liked it better than where he normally played; one didn't. The salad and pizza here are pretty good. read more

Amazing place for great pizza, bowling and volleyball in a dome! The owner is so nice. The bar is renovated and so nice. Great place for the family read more

Kingpin Lanes is the very best place to bowl. Whether you need bumpers for a child or a cool drink they are ready to serve you. My granddaughter didn't want to leave! The pizza and salad are excellent as well! They also have a new dome for sand volleyball! You will not be disappointed. Customer service is tops here! Thank you for making an unforgettable memory for my family! read more

Good bowling alley. It had an older feel to it which I loved for the nostalgia. They had classic Brunswick 2000 systems which they were nice enough to give a tour of. They had older rear projection score display screens which was a lovely 90s touch. The lanes showed signs of use. The bar allowed smoking which you don't see much anymore. I love the smell of smoke in a bowling alley - it brings me back. read more

Kingpin Lanes - Sports Bars Near Me - Bridgeton, Missouri

3 of us went to bowl here today with a certificate that we won from a silent auction for a free hour of bowling and free pizza. We bowled for our hour and then ordered the pizza from the Brickhouse Pizza window. I then stood for 10 minutes to order drinks and a couple of appetizers from the food counter. There were 3 employees running the entire place. One in the Brickhouse Pizza area, one oiling the lanes and one at the front counter. Once he finally came to take our order, I ordered 2 large diet pepsi's and a large tea ($3 each, which seemed extremely high to me). I asked him if we could order food or if they only made food during certain times (this was 1pm on a Saturday that I was asking this question). He didn't seem too interested in making food but said he would (I planned to order chicken strips, fries and pretzels) with the response he gave me I decided to just order 3 pretzels with cheese, thinking that couldn't be too hard on him. He said they would be ready in 5-6 minutes. We sat at a table, the pizza girl brought out the pizza, we finished the entire pizza and still hadn't received our pretzels. NO ONE was in there at this time because open bowling had just ended since leagues were coming in soon. The guy oiling the lanes was now eating a huge order of nachos that he made for himself and the guy running the counter was wiping tables off and talking with 2 guys who were free bowling before their league started. I approached the guy eating his nachos and asked if we could just have our money back on the pretzels that we were waiting over 20 min for. He got the guy who was talking with the league bowlers who said "OH shit", meaning he realized he COMPLETELY forgot our food. He proceeded to get us the money back. HOWEVER, we paid tax on the food that we purchased and were only given the $7.35 back that the pretzels with cheese cost. Meaning they pocketed the 61 cents tax that we paid and wasted almost an hour of our time between the time we waited to order, waited for our food and waited to get our money back. To sum this up, if you want to bowl and only bowl this is an ok place to go. The pizza was fantastic, really good actually, and was brought out to us quickly (the pizza is the reasoning behind my 2 star review- the bowling alley itself would not have received any stars). They are EXTREMELY under staffed. Service in the other food area sucks, really bad. I don't know why it is even offered considering I seemed to be putting them out by ordering. We NEVER even got the food we ordered. To make it right once we asked for our money back he could have offered to make the pretzels real quick. The fact that he didn't shows that he had no intention of ever making them for us. We went here today to celebrate my husbands birthday weekend. What a joke that was! I don't plan to go back. I am pissed that we left money in their pockets (the tax that he pocketed) and angry that I ever bid on that prize at the silent auction we attended a few months back. read more

They don't have enough help,lanes and scoring machines break down, and if your a lefthander do not bowl league there or you'll want to quit the sport. Food is pretty good though. read more
