    Great fun bowling and the place didn't have any mechanical issues which Is great when bowling. The service was as expected with good drink prices. I got an olive burger and it was great for this type of establishment. Not a fancy place but just a small homey bowling alley with no fuss! We will definitely be back.

    BOOM. Winner winner chicken dinner :P

    Came in Saturday 1/31/26 around 10pm after a show at the DeVos…read more It's pretty loud with all the bowling and music. But we could still have a conversation. Bar service was great! Very friendly. Drinks were delicious and reasonably priced! Not always the case in GR. We hope to come back and bowl another time!

    Haters will say that duckpin bowling isn't real bowling, but an astute mind will realize: Does it…read moreeven matter? When you've had a drink or two, it's all just throwing balls and knocking things over. Woodrows Duckpin is the only duckpin bowling alley in Grand Rapids, as far as I can tell. It's a great place to get a drink and knock things over. In fact, you should be aware that you can only get things to drink here -- they don't sell any food. But you're welcome to bring in your own food. We opted to just get beverages (sodas for kids, beer and wine for the adults) and eat elsewhere after we played. You can reserve a lane for an hour at a time. An hour of duckpin bowling was more than enough for me and my family! Games go by quickly, and I think we played three games in about 45 minutes, then peaced-out with 15 minutes left on our tab. (But we had our fun and got our money's worth.) Duckpin bowling uses smaller balls that are more lightweight than regular bowling balls, so it's easier for young kids to play. Think skee ball, but on a slightly larger scale. Honestly, I think I prefer duckpin bowling to regular bowling! It feels more laid-back and less serious. There's a nice lounge in Woodrows Duckpin, which is pleasant to sit in when you're not playing, or if you're waiting for your lane to be ready. Woodrows is also attached to the Amway Grand Plaza, so if you're staying at that hotel, it's just a quick jaunt downstairs.

    This was my first time at a bowling alley in many years. I did not know what to expect…read more It was a fun place to bowl with a clean, well-kept atmosphere. The lanes were in good shape and the staff were friendly and helpful (for the most part). Shout out to the bartender/server that came around to take our orders at the lanes. He was very nice and attentive. They also had plenty of food and drink options, which made it easy to hang out for a while. The only downside is that it's a bit pricey, but overall the experience was worth it. Great spot if you're looking for a fun day/night out with friends or family. I don't have anything to compare it to with other bowling alleys in the area. Maybe the prices are on target with other places. I just know that for us to bowl, rent shoes, appetizer, 2 beers, and one soda = about $90.00. We would come here again. I think it was worth it. My kid had a great time!

    I am standing outside AMF. We called to make sure they were open. The receptionist answered and…read moresaid yes. We tried to get inside, and the doors are locked. We called again and asked if they were open now. The receptionist said yes. We told her the door was locked. She said she'd open it. She never came. I am standing outside in 20 degrees with my 4 year old and 6 year old who are now crying. Happy New Year. Please hire people who care and want to work. I'm not too sure why you're paying an employee who literally isn't working.

    Great experience at Wengers this past Saturday! I had emailed earlier in the week (which felt too…read morelast minute, in my opinion) to see if they had open lanes on a Saturday night around 7pm - Tyler got back to me super quick and let me know he would get back to me once he was at the bowling alley, I appreciated the heads up. He called me once he was there and confirmed they could accommodate us - score! Once there we were give three lanes downstairs and Tyler and another employee helped us move tables to accommodate our group and get us rolling. Shoes and beer were quickly and efficiently and it was just the two of them! While we were there they guys were on top of any lane issues we had - much more efficient and quick to respond than a typical HUGE bowling alley. Never waited more than a hot second for a beer, either! Tyler and his employee were super helpful, friendly, and accommodating all evening. Wengers is a smaller bowling alley with only 8 lanes downstairs and 8 lanes upstairs, however, I personally like the smaller venue and vibes. Juke box, vending machines, good beer selection, and they do offer some limited food options. The alley is older but clean and well kept. The screens are no frills and easy to use and navigate. The bathrooms are only one stall and small (and right near some tables... like RIGHT next to them lol) but they are very clean. They do offer rentals for a whole floor for parties or events - that's is pretty cool! They have catering options available, as well. All in all a great experience and I will be keeping them in mind for future nights out, events, and get togethers!

    After a questionable experience at Northfield Lanes (the closest bowling alley to my residence) I…read morewas happily surprised with the quality and service of Wengers! Although a bit in the "ghetto" (if you will) this place is a hidden gem! It's totally vintage chic- with two stories and bars on each floor! I love the retro feel and the fun vibes. My friend, Curtis, and I enjoyed a fun night of bowling upstairs. When we arrived, there was a league of sorts taking place downstairs, but upstairs only had two lanes in use. We loved the retro style ball pulleys, and the lanes were in good shape! I had to search for a second "11 lb" upstairs, but that wasn't a big deal. Our bartender, Nick, was patient with us and our song choice (which pertained mostly of Celine Dion) and gave us great drinks. I wish they had a more diverse liquor selection, but I made do. I was thrilled with the quality and volume of their touch tunes machine! Our bar service was on point and I had a lot of fun bowling at Wengers. Reasonably priced in comparison to other bowling alleys around, which is a total bonus!
