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

Korean restaurant

I went here for the first time last night to go bowling. It was league night and the kind woman at the front desk said it would be at least an hour to get a lane because the league was using. Most of them. She was very welcoming. I decided to go to the Korean restaurant inside the bowling alley instead and then I went to the bowling alley's bar which has great prices. Loved them both. Good parking here. Look forward to going back and bowling. They even have a pro shop with a staff member on Thursday league nights. Great place. Good vibes, safe.

Bowling balls and seating
Christian R.

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'm really disappointed to hear that this bowling center is being rebranded as Lucky Strike…read more What bothers me most is the apparent double standard. AMF is still being used as a bowling-center brand at other locations, so why does this particular center have to lose its AMF identity? If the AMF brand is still good enough for other bowling centers, why can't this location remain AMF? For longtime customers and bowlers, AMF isn't just a name on a sign. It's part of the identity and history of the bowling center. Turning it into Lucky Strike feels like another step toward making every bowling center look and feel like the same corporate entertainment venue. Not everyone wants a flashy entertainment complex. Some of us just want to walk into our local bowling alley, bowl a few games, see familiar faces, and enjoy the place we've been going to for years. I sincerely hope the people making this decision reconsider. Let this place stay AMF.

First time here with the family and grandkids, and we had an amazing time. I haven't been bowling…read morein years, but this place brought it all back. Marissa really made our Sunday morning experience she went above and beyond and was so great with everyone. The bowling alley should be proud to have someone like her representing the place. She even delivered our food, and it was top notch honestly some of the best. This place reminded me of going bowling as a kid... lots of great memories. We'll definitely be back!

We stopped at Crush Lounge for a late lunch, and it was totally perfect for our needs…read more The service was prompt and friendly. I ordered a BLT sandwich with French fries. And it was so good- lots of crispy bacon and fresh tomato and lettuce. The bun was fresh and soft but held up well (read not soggy) against the tomato and mayo. My husband opted for the soft pretzel, was was piping hot upon arrival and came with two sauces- a mustard sauce and a cheese sauce. We finished it all. The sandwich was so large, I took half back to our room to eat for later. Crush Lounge also has a small bowling alley with several lanes. We didn't get to try it as it was reserved for an event, but this is such a cool feature of the property. This is a solid spot for a quick bite to eat or for drinks when staying at the Meritage.

Reserved a lane at Crush Lounge for my family on Tock since lately my son has been obsessed with…read morebowling. This was his first "real" bowling experience outside of using small, kiddie bowling sets or paper cups. They had 3 (out of 5 or 6?) working lanes and we go there right at opening so we could pick our lane. We made a reservation on Tock and when we arrived they said they were still "setting up". Not sure what that meant, but we waited about 15 minutes while 4-5 people stood behind the bar. They finally let us downstairs to the alleys where we were able to get our bowling shoes and put in a food order. The food selection was not bad, but after leaving, I realized I ordered two kid menu items which come with a drink, entree, and ice cream...but they gave us the entrees and not the drinks or ice cream. When the orders came out, they had also forgotten on of the entrees as well. Good thing I noticed the missing burger, but wompwomp on missing the additional kid meal items. Make sure you check your orders!! The spicy chicken sandwich and the buffalo wings were super slathered in sauce and very salty. The kids burger was burnt and my toddler didn't touch it. The fries and quesadilla were really good though! The kids had a fun time with the bowling experience - they had kid friendly items like a ramp for the ball and bumpers..plus some 7 lbs balls that my 3-year old was able to manage lol. Overall ok experience and a nice thing to do with the family.

Overview: a great date activity or just for fun, a wide variety of holes and challenges, food…read moreavailable, and other fun like pool and arcade games ---- The first time I visited here was to play pool a couple years ago, which is paid through the reloadable game card that you can purchase there. It can get busy at the tables and you might have to wait for one to be free. I also don't remember how much it was per game (sorry!) This time when visiting back home in Alameda we decided to play mini golf! The pricing is as follows (as of August 2026): - $16 - Adults (age 18-64) - $13 - Youth (age 0-17) (Age 0-4 is free when playing with a paid adult) - $13 - Seniors (age 65+) You pay at the front and then there's a ball machine near the entrance where you pull the handle of the color ball you want and it comes down the cool metal wire runway. The lady at the front wasn't super helpful and we kinda wandered around looking for where to get the balls, but once we asked she pointed out where we could get them. There are a standard 19 holes on this course and each one is a cool little tidbit about the Bay Area! It was cool seeing local landmarks and the different challenges for each hole. I was terrible was had a fantastic time playing. My boyfriend on the very last hole, got a hole-in-one which triggers an alarm and you get a free round a mini golf voucher that expires 3 months afterwards! Our very first date was playing mini golf so if we are ever visiting again I'd love to make it a tradition! ---- Overall: a great place for mini golf, super cute local landmarks at each hole, challenging, creative, and very fun!

Had a great birthday party here for my son!…read more At first they seemed very strict when I spoke with them on the phone, but it ended up being very chill and laid back and all the kids (and adults!) had a great time. They probably get people trying to take advantage of them bringing larger groups than expected or whatever. It was golf then lunch then arcade and they were a little flexible with the end time for cake so that we could get maximum arcade! The Chicken fingers and fries were great. They could up their game with the pizza a bit, but haha, the kids seemed happy, and everything in the world doesn't need to be gourmet. Good beers on tap for the parents. Felt a little gross drinking them out of a plastic soda cup, but I digress... Price was good for the value we got! It wasn't cheap, but still pretty reasonable when you factor in the unlimited arcade. One of the staff was super excited to about one of my kid's gift--the Remote Control Skibidi Toilet! Thanks y'all for a fun and low stress party.
