I love this place. It has everything a local bowling alley could offer. Booze, darts, bowling, pool, and food! And the best part? This place won't break the bank. Their costs are very reasonable...even down to the booze!!! We usually go a few times a year and they are always packed but always able to accommodate us. They now have these awesome graphics for bowling where you can take a picture of yourself that shows up on the screen and when you bowl it randomly puts a fun clip art filter on your selfie. So much fun!!! Seriously...check this place out for an alternative to downtown Boise. read more

Every place I look says this business was open. It's not. It's closed and there is no sign indicating anything about hours. Website should at least be updated. I'm so confused and disappointed bc we made a trip specifically to bowl. Won't be back unfortunately. read more

We had a group function and played darts as it was league play for bowling. We had a great time and the food was great and affordable and the lady at the bar did a great job and was super accommodating and friendly. Can wait until we go again read more

I mean, this place is pretty cool. Bowling alleys are always dirty to me. Putting my feet in someone else's shoes is not my favorite thing. That being said, I had a great time. We all laughed and the bowling was fun. read more

Best bowling alley in the valley. Love all of the workers, always well oiled and plays how an alley shoulda don't play in a league due to time constraints but the tournaments I've played in I thoroughly enjoyed. read more

Took my mom and the kids for a fun afternoon. The price was the best in town. We had a great time. My only complaint would be that the bumpers are either up or down. Would be great if they were automated so we didn't have to have the bumpers up for all the bowlers. read more

Reasonably priced, friendly and helpful staff. Clean and very family friendly. Will def be back. read more

Meridian Bowling Lanes - Bowling Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

Had a fun time with family at Meridian Bowl. However, my husband bowled one ball one time and realized his hip was not ready to bowl. He had a recent hip replacement. We were there about 5 minutes and he bowled one time and to our surprise he was not given a refund. Not cool or professional. In the future we'll take family to Caldwell Bowl because of the principle. Wouldn't have been a big deal to refund $8. read more

Meridian Bowling Lanes - Its money May fingers - Bowling Near Me - Meridian, Idaho

This is my favorite bowling alley in the Valley, but it's not fancy, glitzy or even too terribly clean. Lol. I just feel like a bowling alley should be lived in. There should be a story breathing across the lanes, generations of laughter bouncing off the wood paneling and countless stories told over beer and fried food. This place is big! It probably has 30 lanes? Plus pool, arcade games and rows of dart boards (in the bar). They recently updated the scoring system and it has all sorts of cheesy options to choose from. My crew chose the selfie option. We all took stupid pictures and then the system puts funny glasses, hats, noses on you. It was fun. They have a full bar so you can get bottled or draft beer, liquor or wine. But again...this is a bowling alley so you're getting well liquor and cheap wine. And the snack bar is full of all the fried food you could possibly want! We had 8 people playing and we only bowled one game. We rented shoes and it came out to $11/couple! That's a screaming deal. And made all the sweeter by all the laughs and cheers and jeers. read more

Made a reservation for a lane for 2 hours of bowling for my husbands birthday on a Friday night. We arrived and were squished into a lane that other parties had clearly taken over with their shoes and food and drinks spread completely into our lane so we asked to change lanes to the other side of the alley which was empty. They moved us which was much appreciated! We had fun bowling, lol, some times the scores were calculated incorrectly like counting as a strike when there was still a pin standing and some other funky occurrences but we had fun nonetheless! The drinks are cheap and we had a great time celebrating here! read more

Racist place, if you're not white you can't bowl for more than 15 minutes. Multiple open lanes and was told we may only have 10 - 15min before they close but it was 2pm and they close at 11pm, disappointing. read more

Don't expect the bartender to engage you once you come in and sit down. Sure she wlll make eye contact with you but it would seem that she is so well compensated that she doesn't need tips received for engaging the customers. Oh well, someone will enjoy my generous tipping. read more

We bowled and had a blast. The staff gave us extra time to finish our game . Everyone was very friendly and helped me pick out the right ball. read more

Great bowling experience and food. The staff and team are very helpful. They have made some improvements recently and it shows. Good electronic scoring systems too. Nice to see some lanes that are still well maintained and a staff that cares. One of our families favorite activities! read more

our work place had a bowling night on a Saturday. We had reservations, so didn't have to wait for lanes. Guys behind counter were exceptional and gave great service. however, the older woman that took our order at Bulleye snack bar was very rude and rolled her eyes at us twice for common questions. We just asked what size coffe they had and I asked for a water. She obviously is unhappy with her job or shes very full of herself. read more

My daughter and her friends wanted to go bowling on prom night. The regulars here called them pigs and other names, apparently for not knowing it was league night. Unless you are a regular here and in a league,I guess you aren't welcome. read more

Poorest bowling center in the Treasure Valley. The whole season has had broken bowling pins. This place has gone downhill!

They put our name on a list to bowl as soon as the league bowling is over. Upon checking with the desk over an hour later, ( cause there are quite a few open lanes). We find out, they decided to cross your name off the waiting list because they see you have an autistic child with you. Never once did they even check to see if we still wanted to bowl. When asked why they didn't call our name, or send the text that a lane is open, they had no excuse nor were they even apologetic for skipping us. read more

Friday night crew is the best!!! Ethan, Ryan, and Shawn are rock stars! Great food, prices, drinks, and customer service +++.

Fantastic atmosphere, great service, and perfect family friendly activity. This place is not your typical nasty dirty bowling alley. There is a great atmosphere, and it is an affordable activity for any day. Had awesome service from the staff and will definitely come more! read more

I bowl a lot, 2-3 times a week, in the Boise/Meridian area and this is hands down the best alley. Their lanes are maintained well and the vibes are perfect for hanging out. It's pretty obvious that this alley is set apart, all the serious rollers join the league there. read more

Fries are the shit. Balls greasy af, figure it out. Got swindled and paid five bucks for half a game. Price is good but I wanted my ten frames, BITCH read more

This is the best place to bowl in meridian. Friendly staff, fair and competitive pricing make this my favorite past times. Go hungry and try one of their succulent burgers paired with a craft cocktail from the bar and indulge in an experience that will leave you wanting to come back again and again. read more

So today I went here with my family and it was a super bad service, one of the workers came up to our table and said in quotes " do you want to leave you guys are already in a lot of trouble for leaving the bathroom a mess and you need to to stop messing with the bumpers and if you don't I will kick you out and you can never come back so don't mess with anything " when I was just in the bathroom and I saw this little girl make the bathroom a mess, we were putting the bumpers on and she turns them so we turn them on and honestly why put the option of them if we're not allowed to use them read more

We called in advance and asked about leagues on a Saturday night and when they would get over because we wanted to come in and celebrate a birthday party, we were told that leagues got over at 7:30 pm and that we could come in after. We arrived at 8:30 and were told they were closed, despite what we were told and the fact that Google says they're open until 11. They said they didn't have any lanes open when no one was actually playing. Now we are left scrambling trying to find a place to go for our birthday. We have been disappointed in their service recently and are extremely irritated that we were given such faulty info about tonight.... read more

I called ahead and asked if they had lanes available said they had plenty and no leagues going on. Showed up an hour later and they said they were "over booked" on lanes... sat and drank a beer for a 30 minutes while there was maybe 5 lanes being used, asked another employee if they had lanes available and he said they have limited lanes but some available... Employees were disorganized and had little interest in helping us. Bar staff was much more helpful. First and last time we come here read more

Great family atmosphere. Fun lounge for the adults and the food is really good! If you're looking for a great place to take the family, this is it! read more

Absolute terrible service. Refused to give back alcohol to legal purchaser after catching a legal freaking who forgot there ID taking a sip!! not even a refund! read more

Take a step back to the 50's! I love the kitschy feel of this classics bowling alley. They have a lunch special every Wednesday from 11-1pm: a hamburger, fries and drink, plus 2 hours of bowling for 9 bucks. Not a bad deal, and the food is decent. Classic fun for the whole family! read more

Probably one if the worst experiences I have had at a bowling alley. The ladies at the bar and in the kitchen were super snotty, close minded and would rather spend time talking to their buddies than help any customers. I'm likely never coming here again and neither are my friends and coworkers. For the bartender, use a phone to look up recipes... like most bartenders usually do, instead of playing on facebook. read more

The staff-Amazing...Food-Amazing...Drinks-Amazing...Lanes-Amazing...if you're looking for a good time on a budget this is the place to go. Whether you're going out on a date or taking the family out for some good times this is the best place in town. read more

Not too impressed. The staff is amazing, the drinks are cheap, and the bowling specials aren't bad. The lanes however I am not impressed with. The mechanics constantly got stuck and the lanes are poorly taken care of. They only way I'm going to come back is if they figure out how to actually oil a lane or if I have enough drinks to not care. read more

Great place to bowl with a group or just a date night. I have been to birthday parties, school trips, and Christmas parties there.

Tons of fun hanging out with friends. Super clean, bright, etc. New ownership is making some nice investments to modernize the experience without losing that old school classic charm. read more

Fun atmosphere, quick service, incredible staff. We had a ton of fun, and will definitely be coming back.

Very rude service. Do not go to Meridian lanes if you are planning to use bumpers. They were very rude about teenagers who wanted to use bumpers because they were not very good bowlers. If our roll was strong enough to break bumpers, we wouldny be using them. read more

Customer service is very poor. We just went in and asked if we could get a lane. The guy at the counter shook his head and said "no, you can't." No explanation or anything. So my husband asked why not and they mentioned there was a tournament... that's exciting! Why couldn't we have gotten "I'm sorry we don't have any lanes open. There is a tournament going on right now." Very rude. read more
