Lucky Strike Orange is such a solid spot for large groups--whether you're planning something with friends or bringing the whole family together. The space is clean, well-kept, and has a fun energy without feeling overwhelming. Pricing is pretty reasonable for what you get, which makes it easy to relax and actually enjoy your time without stressing about the cost. Pro tip: go in the morning if you can--when we went, it was basically empty, which made everything way more enjoyable (no waiting, no crowds, just vibes). Parking is at The Outlets at Orange, so you might have a bit of a walk depending on where you park, but it's manageable. What I loved most is that it really works for all ages--my grandma and my nephew both had a great time, which says a lot. Definitely a go-to if you're trying to plan something easy and fun for a group! read more

All the people that work here are really nice! The lanes are decent and there are plenty of house balls to go around when it gets busy. They do have pool tables here and a full bar which they just remodeled. The food is pretty decent as well and they do play some sports here on the TVs. read more

Stopped in on Father's Day and I met Bryan at the bar working as the bartender. He was very kind and friendly, he got my drink orders served up swiftly. I asked him if they will be taking reservations for the FIFA World Cup games and he kindly directed me to speak with his manager Andrew. He said they do host the games and it would be a great time if we made a reservation for our large table. Andrew was kind and walked me step by step to make an online reservation for my large party of 13. The day of my reservation comes and Andrew was there next to our reserved table as promised. He had one of his best waiters named Brandon who was truly amazing. Brandon was kind and quick with taking our orders, cleaning up our empties and ensuring we had all that we needed. I couldn't be more pleased with the professionalism of Lucky Strike's kind staff. My experience was 5 stars and I'll certainly be back. Thank you Andrew, Brandon, Bryan and Amanda, you guys were truly incredible! read more

It was our groups first time here and I was impressed at the hospitality, they actually answer their phones and the host and food service was spot on. Just FYI these are not competition ready lanes and use strings for reset. Other than that they have a large food menu, a full long bar, and pool tables. There is also plenty of parking the the lane prices are very competitive. Its a fun game spot for sure. read more

Went for a 30th birthday celebration. The customer service was excellent! They were very attentive, food was hot & delicious, drinks were replenished when asked & everyone had a great time. There is a sign indicating no outside food or drinks, but we were allowed to bring water bottles & a birthday cake. They even provided a little decor (HBD lights & heart hands). There were 2 lanes assigned to us with bar stools & comfy couches instead of hard benches. Great atmosphere with a play list/videos that span multiple genres. Will definitely book again. read more

Came in to have some beers and eat and hopefully play pool but bartender wouldn't serve us our beer after 30 minutes of us sitting at the bar waiting, we made eye contact and everything keep in mind photos taken are live photos bar was pretty empty and she then stated to manager saying she forgot, which i find that as a huge excuse. Not very happy with the service they provide here. read more

Came here to go bowling on a Monday night and had a great time. Bowling shoes come with the lane reservation and there were 4 of us with unlimited time. Be sure to bring socks, as I had to pay $3, since I forgot mine. I recommend they should sell cute thick ones with the Lucky strike logo. Not only will it make me feel better spending $3 for random socks, it's a good opportunity for an up-sell and branding. We also ordered some pizza, a was better than expected. read more

After doing a bunch of shopping, we started thinking about what to eat as a family, and while walking to the car fully loaded with shopping bags, realized, why not take advantage of Lucky Strike and make it dinner and some entertainment for the family. We haven't been bowling in a while so it was a cool experience. They were offering a special where it was $20 all you can bowl including shoes for the night. We ended up playing four games and ordered food that included pizza, hamburgers, nachos and tacos. All the food was good and came out hot and we were able to enjoy without the pressure of being on a time frame. There wasn't a lot of traffic as it was a weekday, but our server was attentive and made sure we were good to go the entire night. I never really noticed but the bowling alley pens are actually on strings to help reset them as needed vs the old skool way with the system breaking down in the back. I've seen that before, but didn't realize it was like this at Lucky Strike. All good. Still had a good time with the family making memories is important. read more

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've ever left a yelp review. I don't normally complain or even offer praise unless something exceptionally good or bad. It's a cool place to shoot pool and have a drink. While I know that Lucky Strike isn't synonymous with serious bowling. However, the lanes were so dry I was able to throw a ball with backspin and get it to stop before it hit the pins. They said they oil the lanes once a week on Mondays. I came on a Sunday evening. If you're looking for a buzz and a fun night of billiards it's a great time. If you're the type of bowler who owns their own shoes you shouldn't come here. read more

Great decor! Didnt expect it to be so classy inside. Food was great too. Pretty good variety and unexpectedly had some asian stuff too lol. Got 2 beer towers as well for our group. Bowling was a good deal too! read more

The place is very nice and clean. The staff are very friendly. They offer a good variety of food and drinks. Pitchers are better deal for beer or soda. The pizzas are ok as well. I like the bowling balls here because each has 2 sizes. We paid hourly and we had almost 3 games, not bad at all. It's conveniently located at the Block so you can chill and go shopping around also :) read more

We came here around 1pm. There is no one at the front reception area. There is a sign pointing to the back of the building (past the bar area) to sign in. We checked in and redeemed our Summer Season Bowling pass that we had previously purchased online. We were given our physical passes. We then stated we wanted to play our 2 games and were given our bowling shoes. We had an amazing time playing today. Love the cosmic/dark atmosphere. It is a pretty busy place and fairly loud inside as well. We had someone come to our area and ask if we wanted to order anything. We politely declined this time. It is super simple to set up your game (easy step by step instructions). One con is they don't have enough lower weighted balls (for kids etc). The balls we used today were all too heavy. We can't wait to come back! Make sure to grab a Summer Season Pass! You definitely get what you pay for (and then some)!! The staff members we encountered today were very friendly. Great place for parties, work events, etc. They also have a lot of pool tables to play at. read more

We went as a family to bowl for just one hour and was able to finish the game. Associate was very helpful and supplied a pitcher of ice water. read more

Place is great for a group looking for something to do on a weekday evening. $20.99 for unlimited bowl and shoes was great. We played 3 games and it was well worth it. We also got the combo which comes with a pizza and a pitcher of Margeritas, which was pretty good. A couple pitchers later and we were blitzed. Amy at the bar was super nice, and was really helpful in keeping our glasses full. Much appreciated. The balls are ambidextrous, with holes drilled to fit either hand. Lanes are decent. But the scoring aystem takes a bit of work... or maybe we were just out of it. But they were really helpful and fixed the issues right away. Awesome night. read more

The couches have seen better days but other than that it's a fun place to spend some time with friends. Food is typical bar good. The chicken tenders were very dry. read more

We had a novice group come up in the lane next to us. They had their whole group hovering around the balls gathered around each person throwing the ball. Needless to say it was irritating for us trying to bowl in the next lane. I politely told our server so he can have someone kindly talk to them as to avoid confrontation. The server said he couldn't do anything about it. When I told the manager later he said that he was "monitoring" the situation and it looked like "we" had it under control! Also, our last bowlers last frame ended before he could finish his game and it was before our time expired! Not funnnn at all! There were 9 of us and played 2 games. Really you want to piss off 9 people! read more

Everything was good from the staff to the drinks and the overall cleanliness of the place. The staff were very attentive to the guests. The drinks are all very good as well, overall a very good experience. Will definitely comeback here! read more

Service here forreal sucks. Went here on a Saturday night and the guy in the front for bowling game never text the number we left. Horrible! They said 20minutes wait and 20 minutes went by we came by and the guy acted all surprised that we even came back. $60plus for 1 hour for 2 people with shoes. Will never come back here again. For the experience and service , not worth my time. Should've went to a different location instead like the one on Orange. Smh and best believe I'll leave a bad review. read more

If you like to be price gouged, delayed, disrespected and threatened, then you will love Lucky Strike, because they deliver all of these services. We went there for some bowling and were told that we'd have to wait an hour or so, and that we could wait in the bar and have drinks. After an hour or two of waiting, we were ready to bowl, but they had no bowling lanes available, and apparently none coming up any time soon, and they suggested that we wait another hour or two or more at the expensive bar (presumably so they can make much more profit from alcohol). After a very short moment of explaining that they should be more honest and accurate with wait times, the employees pointed to the Russian guards and threatened to have us physically removed. This was quite the opposite of fun. read more

Lanes were really oily not a big fan but it was a overall good experience I did go out at a weekday so it wasn't too packed but who knows it'll probably depend when you go and costumer service was really good they kept making sure I didn't need any help with anything read more

Had such a great time tonight. The bowling was expensive but our server made it worth it. Hunter? I think? Give that guy a raise. Anyway, will be back if he's here. read more

Awesome bowling alley! Equipped with a full service kitchen and bar this is the best choice for a night out with friends or an evening date with a loved one. Definitely coming back for a modern date spot. They also offer pool tables and private event space. read more

I used to come to this place regularly with friends -- it used to be one of our top hangout spots. Sadly, that changed after a terrible encounter with one of the employees. We were still inside for just a few minutes after closing when the employee stormed in and started yelling at us instead of calmly asking us to leave. The way it was handled was completely uncalled for and very unprofessional. Management should train their staff on basic customer courtesy, regardless of the time. This experience really showed how poorly this place is being run now. If you expect to be treated with even a little respect, I'd suggest finding another spot -- because respect clearly isn't a priority here anymore. read more

I used to come to this place all the time with a group of friends -- it used to be one of our favorite spots. Unfortunately, that changed after a terrible experience with one of the employees. We were still inside just a few minutes after closing, and instead of politely letting us know, the employee came in and started yelling at us like we were kids. It was completely uncalled for and very unprofessional. Good management should know how to treat their customers with respect, even if it's closing time. This experience showed me how poorly this place is run. If you value being treated with basic respect, I'd recommend going somewhere else -- because clearly, they don't respect their customers here anymore. read more

Zero star, I rarely leave bad reviews, but my experience at Lucky Strike was honestly disappointing. (D'ough) I believe was the employee helped us, his customer service was terrible -- the staff were rude, unhelpful, only the bartender was nice!!the stuff seemed more interested in chatting with each other than assisting paying customers. When I tried to ask for help, I was either ignored or given an attitude from D'ough which made the whole visit uncomfortable. It's frustrating to spend your money somewhere and be treated like you're an inconvenience instead of a guest. Management didn't seem to care either, which says a lot about how they value their customers. I was really looking forward to a fun experience, but the poor service completely ruined it. Definitely not coming back and wouldn't recommend it to anyone who expects even basic respect or professionalism!! read more

Good time. Had 4 lanes reserved. Great customer service. The far right lane seemed watered but it could have just been my bowling. Pizza and wings were really good. read more

Really enjoyed this place, wasn't too overpriced, loved the music, the pizzas are small though. Like personal pizzas cut into thin slices, but the rest of the food was great! Drinks a lil watered down. read more

Update for feb1 2025: I have been here 2x before. And don't get me wrong, its a nice place for night with the guys, a date, or even just hanging out for the night. On February 1st, we had a small gathering - a bday celebration. We show up 9pm ... crowd wasn't too large, yet only one bartender. decided to wait, its a niceplace, good ambiance. Like any other time, we thought, what's 5 min in waiting. Unfortunately, that turned into 35 min before we were even acknowledged, and sitting at the bar. The couple to our right had finished a round and couldn't get another order. The man in the wheel chair was pacing up and down the bar, and no attention or acknowledgment was given to him either. Other people showed up and were asking for to be served, yet , nothing. Orders were only being done for the waiters, for literally 30 to 45 mins. We stayed because we had already set up a meeting place. Another man came, but only to help get pitchers for the tables. Once acknowledged, they move on and took someone's order who had only been there for 5 minutes ... yet we had been at the bar seat for 35 min or more. We left, and went next door, busy also, yet we're served within 5 min; food and all. Who ever was managing that location at the time, was a doing a poor job read more

Can't talk about the food since we did not order anything. The service was nice and quick! We were a little bit late due to our lunch taking forever and they were able to let us go bowling at 2:30 instead of our reservation time which was 2. The ambiance was very cool! This is a very nice bowling alley! They do not have that many lanes but they have a pool table, bar, and a couple of other fun things than just bowling! Would definitely come here again! read more

Came for my husband's company holiday party and had a blast! I was impressed that they rented out the entire place on a Saturday night, fed us and had open bar from 7-10pm! Fried chicken sliders and Margherita pizzas were placed on bar counter tops and tables, which were just okay. The buffet of Caesar salad, roasted root vegetables, mashed potatoes, penne pasta and braised short ribs were pretty decent for a large catering party. They also served up speciality cocktails. I enjoyed the Choco-Jack Mint Delight, which consisted of vodka, Bailey's, dark cream cacao, and peppermint schnapps. Hubby and I had a lot of fun bowling with his coworkers too! Overall, food was okay, service was excellent and entertainment was great! read more

Definitely my favorite spot to bowl! It's the cleanest, nicest and hippest alley. The ambiance is great for a night out with friends, a work gathering, or date night. The pool tables are also well maintained. Both are pricey, but so worth it. The best part is no one under 21 allowed past 9pm. The bar lounge is a very cool spot to hang out and watch the genes on the many big screens. They've got it all here, and you do get what you pay for. read more

After I left a review about my experience with the service, I was encouraged to reach out for further discussion about the incident. I provided details about the situation, but unfortunately, it seems that no resolution has been reached. I still have a damaged bowling ball, and I believe it's important for other bowlers to be aware of my experience. Anyone looking to bowl whether for practice or just for a night of fun, there are many places that are much lower in price and within the general area of Lucky Strike. Do not waste your time or money at this location. read more

I don't know what to really say the balls feel weird and the ally's feel horrible just the ball slows down? And it feels cramped in this place I go to Westminster lanes quite often and I love the bowling ally's there this place is very disappointing the employees are nice but the whole bowling experience is lacking and quite mid honestly makes it miserable to be here read more

I used to be a regular here a decade ago, and now pop in once in a while. My husband and I stopped in for a drink after a day of shopping yesterday. We ordered two glasses of wine. The portions were very small. I'd guess them to be 4 oz pours, not the standard 6 or 8 oz. The vibes are still fun and lively. We didn't have food, but we have had food many times in the past. It's bar food, so don't expect anything super gourmet. Service was fine. Overall its a fun spot, but I wouldn't order a glass of wine again. read more
