    Retro well Maintained Lanes
    Matthew L.

    New bowler here. Decided to drop by and try the place out because I just dropped off my friend at the Bart and wanted to make the bridge toll worthwhile. At first glance Paddock doesn't look like much but the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The lanes are the best maintained near Vallejo that aren't string pins. I've tried Bowlero Rohnert Park, Bowlero Vacaville, Delta Bowl and their lanes are always pretty dry. I tried bowling league in Bowlero and they tried to oil the lanes but didn't seem to do a good job. The balls came back soaked in oil and I didn't seem to notice any difference from how it normally was. I talked to Dotty the mechanic at Paddock and she said a lot of other factors like the temperature and humidity affect the oil. I also noticed when someone finishes bowling staff comes up and cleans the area pretty quickly. The attached Korean Restaurant was pretty good as well. They serve regular American diner food or have a full Korean menu. It's real food and they don't charge you 6 dollars for a soda. I think I'm gonna switch from Vacaville to here. I'm worried I'm going to develop bad habits and I'm tired of bowlero's high prices and overpriced food/drinks.

    Must be a Saturday morning shot from lane 18 looking toward the patking lot and lane 1.

    This is a bowling alley for league bowlers. The lanes are oiled for leagues, and it is possible to have your lanes oiled on a non-league day (ordered ahead of time and for a charge.) Paddock is putting in new machines right now, and that should be easier on our equipment and their mechanics. If you take your bowling even somewhat seriously, this is a solid house for you. That said, there are usually open lanes for open bowling, except Friday days when senior league takes all 20 lanes. Many people do book lanes for parties, especially on the weekend. There is a children's league with an exceptional coach on Saturday mornings.

    Paddock bowl I appreciate you! In a world full of nothing is the same anymore, you are! We don't bowl very often but it is a fun way to spend some time. Currently Sunday is $3 dollar day. 3 bucks for shoes and 3 per game. We met up with my brothers this morning to spend some quality time. It was busy and there were parties booked but I was told this was unusually busy. We had 1 hour before a party was booked so she let us play a quick game as long as we were done by then. I bowled badly and had a blast! Started my Sunday off very nicely. Last note- the bowling shoes- surprisingly comfortable.

    Pro shop- small but looks like he can get most items needed. Not many pro shops around

    Location easy off freeway Small facility Looks like family owned, seemed like alot of regulars Monday, school holiday- Leagues at 10:30 and 1200 so either early morning or mid afternoon would be best.Hour wait and cafe opened at noon. No arcade Bar looked fine but since we didn't stay long didn't check out Prices reasonable $27 for 3 shoes and 5 games played total not for all three. I kid played twice. Pro shop looked nice

    Yes, this place is a bit grimy and run down, but that really adds to the charm. A good amount of lanes to bowl on, with pretty cheap prices. My spouse and I played three games and it was about $25. The bar was nice, with good cocktails and variety on the draft beer. There's also a cafe/restaurant that we did not try. Pretty standard bowling alley, but it's charming to see a place thriving that has a very vintage feel. Definitely a fun time.

    I did not bowl. However, my family come here to bowl and the kids play in a league. They love it here. I did enjoy hanging out here with my cousins while they bowl. They have a full bar. The drinks were good. The server at the bar was super friendly (she was welcoming). Thought it's my first time here, the bowling alley looks like it's been here awhile. It's kinda small maybe 12 lanes (I could be wrong). We came on a Sunday and it wasn't too crowded which was nice. They have a Korean restaurant connected to them which is a plus. They serve Korean food and bowling alley food! Awesome right?!? It's a cool hangout for a Sunday funday :).

It has quickly become one of our favorite spots for a…read morerare date night because it stays open late, which works well for us since I am mostly bedridden and wheelchair-bound due to Stage 3 full-body CRPS and other medical pain conditions. I don't get out often, usually only for appointments once or twice a month and about once a month (sometimes every other month) for a date...so when I do, it's something very special that I have to carefully plan for, and I need significant time to recover afterward. Round1 has so many fun options all in one place. There's bowling, a huge arcade with both classic and modern games, racing games, basketball hoops, rhythm and dance games, and interactive skill games. They also have karaoke rooms, ping pong, and billiards/pool tables. It's really nice because there is something for everyone and every energy level...whether you want something active, competitive, or just casual and fun. We enjoy pool, basketball hoops, racing, several other sit down games like the Top Gun game. We have yet to order snacks as we usually get there too late, but will next time. We love Karoke so we may do a little Karoke The staff has always been kind, and the customer service is consistently good. We also really appreciate the security at the front it, it makes the environment feel safe and welcoming. We haven't tried bowling at this specific location yet, but we have at another Round1 and look forward to doing it here as well. One of our favorite things is just walking around and trying different games together...it honestly feels like stepping into a playful, fun space where you can forget stress for a while. My husband is incredibly supportive and often carries me so I don't have to use my wheelchair inside, which makes it easier for us to enjoy the experience together. Even though I'm 38 and he's 42, it truly feels like being kids again, laughing, playing games, and just enjoying each other's company. We're really grateful to have found a place like this where we can still make joyful memories together despite health challenges.

They still have a decent variety of arcade games, and there's enough to keep you entertained for a few hours. One of the biggest draws back then was the claw machines. It felt like you actually had a fair chance of winning prizes. These days, they seem much harder to win unless you're a claw machine expert. Another issue is the food area. Every time I've visited, it seems a bit dirty and could definitely use more attention. It takes away from the overall experience, especially if you're planning to grab a bite while you're there. On a positive note, the beverage selection is pretty good, and there are plenty of drink options to choose from. Overall, I'd give this location a 2/5. It still has some fun games, but the atmosphere and maintenance don't feel like they used to. I hope they invest a little more into the customer experience because this place has the potential to be much better.

Service issues happen from time to time, but what truly keeps customers coming back is the people. We wanted to recognize three team members who have consistently made our family's experience exceptional. **First, Kaydy, the Kids Club Coordinator.** For the past two years, our family has attended countless Kids Club events, and Kaydy has been the heart and soul behind so many of those memories. She greeted every family with a genuine smile and brought so much energy, warmth, and passion to every event. You could tell she truly loved what she did. It wasn't just another job--it showed in every interaction. When we recently learned she would be leaving, we were honestly heartbroken. Before the recent changes to the Kids Club program, events were consistently packed and often fully booked, and we have no doubt Kaydy's dedication played a huge role in building that loyal following. Pinstripes is losing an incredible employee, and any organization would be fortunate to have her. **Next is Ray, the upstairs manager.** Ironically, our first few visits to Pinstripes years ago could have been our last. We experienced recurring issues with our bowling lane and service that left us frustrated. Fortunately, Ray stepped in each time with professionalism, urgency, and genuine care. He resolved every situation quickly and made us feel heard rather than dismissed. The biggest testament to his leadership? After those early visits, we never encountered problems of that magnitude again. We truly believe his attentiveness and commitment to the guest experience played a major role in that. **And finally, Monica, the hostess with the mostest.** If you've been to Pinstripes, you've probably seen Monica constantly helping guests with a smile. She's hardworking, attentive, organized, and always makes us feel welcome. No matter how busy it gets, she takes the time to acknowledge people and make sure they're taken care of. As long-time customers, we can confidently say that while food, bowling, and bocce bring people through the doors, it's employees like Kaydy, Ray, and Monica who keep families coming back. Thank you for making our family's visits so memorable over the years. Your hard work and dedication have never gone unnoticed.

The restaurant seemed very understaffed, and throughout the two hours we were there, many of the food items stayed empty for long periods without being replenished. Since the buffet was split between two levels, our entire family, including those helping with a newborn, constantly had to go downstairs just to find available food, which was also limited at times. The protein selection felt pretty minimal with mainly prime rib and ham, while most of the buffet consisted of carbs and desserts. On top of that, three of our family members ended up experiencing stomach issues afterward, which we suspect may have come from the chocolate fountain area. We've celebrated Mother's Day here before and were really looking forward to coming back, so it was disappointing to leave feeling let down. Hoping this was just an off day, but sadly we probably won't be choosing Pinstripes again for future Mother's Day celebrations.

Overall this place could probably use a lot of TLC - the lanes had a bunch that weren't working, but since the place was pretty empty when we arrived it wasn't a problem for us. Balls and lanes were a bit beaten up and dinged up. There's a whole back section with arcade games, a section for a bar, and a small seating area in the front for food. The lady at the front was a bit stoic at first, but actually pretty funny and friendly as we were just chatting while I waited for my colleagues to arrive. The lady at the bar was nice enough as well. Food was probably 1-2 stars for me - menu was limited and even the food on the menu wasn't necessarily available. The pizza was edible and my colleagues said the tacos actually weren't that bad, but the soda was super watered down and I did end up with a stomachache after dinner. I probably wouldn't come here unless it were another team building event, but at least it got the job done.
