Dropped in for a few games with the yelp crowd and instantly remembered why I like bowling so much. From the moment you walk in you can hear the pins dropping, see the scores racking up, smell the beer and feel the tension. Brunswick Bowling is (almost) all a good bowling alley should be. Warm and inviting, well organised and with enough space! The only negative I can come up with is cleanliness. The balls and lanes hadn't been polished for sometime. My rule of thumb is, in places like this, that should happen at least twice a day, but hey nobody's perfect. Friendly staff and attentive waiters abound and are fairly quick to fix any mechanical problem. All electronic scoring with touch screen displays in 6 languages, so no worries there. Plenty of lanes and balls as well to go around. Overall a very nice place to have a few games even if you get beaten by an American. Hehehe read more

Phoenix Bowling Park Prater - Bowling Near Me - Vienna, 9

See all

Not a bad place at all to bowl, and or get together with friends. Went here on two occasions, one time I went alone, and one time I went with an extremely large group (organization had organized a bowling trip). Balls are plentiful (but slightly oily - as is normal for house balls) Lanes are in good condition, but perhaps the lanes should be oiled a little more frequently. When I went with the group, they activated Disco (or Cosmic) bowling. While I used to love this as a kid, as I became (as one of my friends put it) a "serious American bowler" I do not don't enjoy it as much. Cosmic bowling not as "cool" as in some place, but gives the cosmic feel without an overwhelming amount of lights flashing in your face. I did not try the food, but based on my peer's reaction I think it was pretty good. The automatic scoring system is modern - and comes in several languages. However, I could do without the constant teases. I realize if there is a pin remaining it is an open frame... I do not need a constant reminder by an animation where the pins poke fun at me. Staff was nice and spoke English A little pricey though... read more

Now that I have visited every bowling alley in Vienna, I can say that Brunswick Bowling Prater is the best that Vienna has to offer. At least in my eyes! ;-) The place is just spacious all around and the large dining area in the middle with the TV is just a huge plus. The service is a hit! I believe the waiters were swinging by every 10 minutes for new orders and to clean up the tables. Excellent service! The bowling alleys were clean, but a bit slick towards the front of the lane. They had more than enough bowling balls and we rarely had to call for lane service. The toilets were spacious and the very clean. The place is a really good to go! "The Texan" read more

I really enjoy bowling, even though i am not very good. Prater Bowling is a large place with many lanes and a fair price for bowling. However unless you go there with friends i do not think it would be so much fun. I was there with a great YELP group which made the evening fantastic. But it did help that this places had everything you could possibly want in a bowling center. read more
