I had a lot more fun than I thought I would! Super reasonable pricing! If you bowl 3 games or more you get your shoe rental free! Hopefully will be back soon!

This place is terrible. They are consistently not open when they say they're going to be.

Pool tables and video games are back along with cornhole and darts. A great place to spend time with friends and family.

I had been told about Mohegan Bowl in Webster, MA about 3 months ago, and this past Thursday…read moredecided to check it out. We were pleasantly surprised at the fun time we had, and we definitely plan on adding this to our list of favorites for places to go with our kids. They had an arcade that was much bigger than we expected. They offer regular bowling or candlepin. Although we didn't have food, they did serve food, as well as alcohol. There was a room right next to the lane we bowled in that also offered laser tag. One feature at this bowling alley that my fiancé and I thought was really cool was that the bumpers could be set for each bowler. So when we bowled the bumpers stayed down, but then automatically came up when it was our sons turn to bowl. We hadn't seen that before. There was definitely a pro and con to the arcade (the con being the ONLY reason why I didn't give them a 5 star review). The arcade had a great assortment for kids in terms of games to play and prizes. But the amount of points needed for each one averaged about 7 points. Most were 8. This made it VERY easy to spend $50 in the arcade in the blink of an eye. However, the amount of points needed to win some really awesome prizes was much less than Chuck E Cheese. My son brought home a basketball, amount other things, with just a little over 1000 points. I think a basketball at Chuck E Cheese is 3000-4000 points. While my son was deciding what to spend his points on, a very kind gentleman behind me asked if he liked Pikachu. I told him YES! He had the girl scan his card and kindly had her give my son this GIGANTIC PIKACHU that was 7,500 points. My son was in Heaven. It made our trip here even better, and to the man who did this for our son, you made his night! It was such a kind gesture!

We have been here a few times with family to bowl. The guy at the front counter is always rude…read more Today when checking in, he made it very clear that my 3 yr olds happy meal was not allowed. I acknowledged and proceeded to pay for our lane. He came by again within 5 min to let our whole party know, again, that no outside food or beverage was allowed. (We heard the message loud and clear the first time.) The happy meal was still sealed and never touched. I got up instantly to throw it away in front of my son to adhere to thier policy. He cried, but thankfully we were spared a third reminder. I felt like this was very unprofessional and extremely rude. We spent over $200 while we were there. I will not be going back.

Lang's Bowlarama is a great example of how to modernize a classic business the right way. Having…read morebeen around since 1960, this place had seen better days by the '80s when I was in high school, and apparently continued that downward trend for a while. But someone clearly invested wisely in bringing this Rhode Island institution into the modern era. The updates are impressive and practical. Everything runs smoothly - from the quick ball returns and pin setups to the modern scoring system. They've switched to hourly rates instead of per-string pricing, which makes a lot of sense with their efficient setup. Their Monday-Friday special ($20 for an hour of bowling plus shoe rental) is a great deal - and thanks to how quickly everything runs, you can easily fit three strings into that hour, as we discovered when we overbooked for two! The facility itself is super clean, including the bathrooms (always a telling sign). They've covered all the bases for refreshments with both a proper bar/food setup and vending machines. The counter staff is friendly, parking is plentiful, and the whole operation runs like a well-oiled ball return machine. It's great to see a family entertainment spot that's both well-maintained and affordable. Lang's has managed to preserve its community bowling alley character while giving customers all the modern conveniences they expect. Perfect for family time or a fun afternoon with friends.

Took out students here for a field trip. Had the place to ourselves! So clean, convenient, staff…read morewas so friendly and accommodating to our students specific needs. I will definitely be coming back !

Though it isn't much to look at from the outside, and the interior is a bit gloomy, Lucky Strike…read moreLanes is a great place. The employees are always friendly and helpful, and it is a great value for a couple hours worth of entertainment for folks of all ages on a weekend evening or rainy day or snow day, or any day for that matter. We have enjoyed ourselves on crowded Friday evenings, and also on deserted weekday afternoons. Duckpin bowling, for those not familiar with it, uses smaller pins and balls, and you get three shots instead of two. It is harder to get high scores than tenpin bowling, but more fun in my opinion, and also nicer for kids. Lucky Strike has some lanes set up with bumpers that prevent gutter balls and allow carom shots if you like that. They also have rock-and-bowl some nights, with spinning lights and music. The lanes are the old-school manual type, so you have to push a button to clear the pins, and you get to calculate your own score. Some people seem afraid of this, but the rules are simple and the math is just addition of small numbers. There is an instruction sheet there, and I am sure that any employee on will gladly provide any needed assistance. In addition to duckpin bowling they have an air hockey table, some pinball and video game machines, and a pool room. They don't serve any food, but seem OK with people bringing their own. My son and I have been there quite a few times, and always enjoyed ourselves. Lucky Strike Lanes is one of the last of these places keeping the tradition alive, and I am happy that they are still hanging in there.

Really nice establishment for a great evening or afternoon out. Really nice staff answers all your…read morequestions and are attentive to your bowling needs. Old fashioned atmosphere that brings you many years of bowling history.
