We were immediately told at check-in that we couldn't bring in our own water bottles, but that shouldn't be a problem because a server would come to our lane very shortly after arrival to take drink orders. No server ever showed for the entirety of our time there. There were a number of mechanical issues with our lane (ball return sticking, sweep malfunction, etc.) that staff were quite slow to respond to, which delayed our ability to play continuously and wasted the set time on our prepaid reservation. 1 of the 2 hand dryers in the women's bathroom did not work, one of the toilet stall doors could not shut or lock, and 2/4 of the above-sink lights were out.

Pricing probably on the higher end for front royal but given the technology used it's a great value in my opinion. Only possible negative (maybe positive for others) is that there's a smoking room so when you open the door smoke comes into the main alley. There was also an arcade room but it appeared closed during our visit. Will return. Large parking lot.

The guy in our group had ordered ONE drink and had it at our lane sat down on one of the tables while we were bowling. This regular bowler took it upon himself to aggressively enforce the bowling alleys "no drinking at the lanes" policy (even though the woman at the concession knew where we were sitting, brought him the drink, and said nothing). Once the guy started making racist comments it was clear what the real issue was. When we brought the situation to the managers attention he defended the man and said there was nothing he could do. The people that were with the biker man were all making ignorant comments and started walking up to our friend trying to start something. We didn't finish our game and ended up leaving. All the black families in there ended up leaving also. WE WILL NEVER BE RETURNING!!!

I understand that we arrived close to closing time (40 minutes before closing), but that shouldn't be an excuse for rudeness. First, we tried to order from the snack bar around 9:26 PM, not realizing it closes at 9 PM instead of 10 PM. Instead of politely informing us, the female employee responded with unnecessary attitude, waving her hand dismissively and saying, "Nahhh, we're closed." Then, when our game automatically ended at 10 PM--before we finished our last frames--we noticed another group still playing. When I asked why, I was told that "You have to request an extension anytime throughout the day if you want to finish your frames before closing". This was confusing because, in all my visits--both day and night--I've never had to " request an extension" to finish my frames (rows). When I asked for clarification-meaning if I have to ask for an extension when it comes close to closing, the employee kept contradicting herself, and said "No, anytime throughout the day" then insisting that you don't have request, it's only when it comes close to closing time. I completely understand that employees want to go home on time, but customer service still matters. A little courtesy goes a long way. Unfortunately, this experience left a bad impression, and I hope management addresses both the inconsistencies in their policies and the attitude of some staff members. Our family night didn't end as fun as we had hoped.
