The gentlemen at the desk were very helpful and kind. Definitely would come back. Also, they accept cards and cash FYI, one of the last reviews from a year ago mentioned that they did not but looks like they've upgraded (they do have an atm as well)

I came back again with a group to play bingo and watch college football. I have to say this place…read morewas crazy busy. It was so much fun. The bingo caller was great and the bbq wings I had were so good! I mean, it's a bowling alley with decent food. What more could you ask for? When I was searching for a bowling ball I found these really fun, cartoon character ones that were perfect for anybody who wants to relive their cartoon days. I love the fact that most every lane was taken, and everybody was having a great time. For those of you that like to play pool, there's pool tables too. I'm so glad I came back and had just as much fun this time as I did the last. It's a great place to come on a cold winter day... something to do to keep everybody entertained.

I'm happy he reccomened me to play 3 games. I bowled terribly but that's beside the point. The food was pretty good, took a little while though, I didn't mind. The bar was packed because of the game. Everyone In there was friendly, can't ask it a better environment. I do wish they had better balls though to use or when I don't have mine with me. Other than that, great place!

They are on top of cleanliness in the lanes.

King-Pin Lanes is an extremely dated, run-down and old-fashioned bowling alley in the suburb of Fox…read moreRiver Grove, Illinois. We stopped here with my family because they wanted to play some bowling and had heard this place was good (they're very competitive bowlers). This place is run-down PERIOD. Water damage on the ceiling, scratched up lanes and balls, and no computers (you keep the score with a piece of paper). The main positive was the staff, who was only one woman. She was very friendly and accommodating. They do have a SMALL bar, but not many options -- mostly sodas and chips. We did enjoy playing pool after our bowling matches, which is only $1 to play. We eventually left because there's a musty/smoky smell and we felt a little bit like we were bothering the worker -- they're clearly short-staffed. My opinion? This place is a cute time capsule to old-school bowling, but past its prime for sure.

Yeah, it was a bit small, but it really had a cozy atmosphere! Probably the star of this place is the service. From creating an event to day of, Timber Lanes showed some really good customer service. We had a party reduction and they adjusted the lanes and the price. I really appreciated the help! Also, every employee my group met the day of my event were excellent. This place has a bit of a hipster vibe, but everybody was so kind. Their drink prices were also pretty good (perhaps a steal). The only downside to this place is that its cash only. I get the want for cash only, but it is 2026. I was particularly confused that I was able to use a credit card for the deposit, but not to pay for the whole event. That part was pretty weird. Either way, this really fit the bill for our group so if we do this again, Timber Lanes is on the top of our list. We really had a great time and as long as you can get past the cash only aspect, this place is a real winner!
