We came here on a Saturday afternoon to go bowling. Our lane froze, no big deal, but there was a birthday party going on. People trying to ordering food, kids trying to purchase items from the arcade and it took a moment to find help from an employee. I eventually found help after having to go into the arcade. I asked if anyone else was working and they said no. Well they took care of my lane issue, but as the alley got busier and we went into the arcade. We soon found ourselves in the same predicament, having to wait for assistance in order to turn in our tickets. I don't blame the one employee working, because it was apparent they were working very hard to handle everyone there. They were even kind enough to apologize for the wait. Shame on management for setting their employees up to fail. read more

We came here on a weekend night as we needed to get out of the house. Being that the 4 of us that came to Walla Walla for the weekend are on a bowling team, we figured some practice might do us good. This is a pretty old place although there was some construction going on. Looks like a few new lanes are being put in to the right. I like bowling alley's like this far more than the newer flashier ones. No, you don't have to keep your own score here. They do have automated scoring so no worries there. We had some beers and some french fries (good ones) and bowled a few games. All in all you can do much worse with a night in Walla Walla. read more

Stardust Lanes - Pins stuck in the air - Bowling Near Me - Walla Walla, Washington

We were looking to kill time after all of the other shops in town had closed. The quality of this bowling alley as terrible. The price point was INSANE!! We bowled in Washington DC a few weeks prior at a way nicer bowling alley for a fraction of the price. It was $50 for the two of us to bowl and each have two beers. The space itself is extremely dirty and the staff are not nice at all. I know you're basically in the middle of nowhere, but please clean the floor. read more

Horrible all around. No redeeming qualities. Rude staff, horrible food, horrible cleanliness, and most importantly horrible bowling lanes. Some of them are uneven and the balls are covered in grease and crud. Our balls were so dirty it took over 2 hours for 4 people to get 9 frames into a game before deciding it was a chore to finish, due to them getting stuck in the return system and taking 2 to 7 minutes for the balls to return. Watch paint dry instead. The only good part about that night is i finished a movie on my phone during all the waiting. read more

My family and I love coming to bowl here every Sunday! The manager Ray is phenomenal and makes you look past the older building and equipment. He is friendly, accommodating and hustles to make sure everyone is taken care of. He treats my handicapped brother with the upmost respect and is really kind to my wild 4 year old. My husband also enjoys the beers they offer. The prices are affordable and it makes for a great time with family or friends. Go give it a try! read more

I keep giving this place another chance, but my patients are running out. I usually am here at most once a year for fraternity event recruitment, and this year's experience will most likely be my last. We had trouble getting a hold of someone at Stardust during business hours, and once we got there with our group it was clear they were short staffed. I called ahead and asked if we could bring in outside pizza, which they objected to. This is understandable if the alternative they offered was good - it was not. $10 dollar pizzas that were brought out every 15 minutes, usually uncooked and incredibly un-appetizing. I tried to give them a break because of the lack of hands behind the bar and kitchen, but it ended up getting ridiculous. On the upside, they made stiff drinks and the whole experience was relatively cheap. Maybe it was the big group factor that keeps throwing everything off. read more

Very low quality, we lost half of our time due to the fact that their lanes were broken down. Overall bad service and would not recommend.

Fun time with the kids at this little bowling alley. Not a lot of assistance or service here but we got what was needed and enjoyed our time. read more

Unbelievably low quality experience. I know bowling alleys are kind of known for being old and janky but this is by far the jankiest. The cameras on the pins were off so the score was constantly incorrect and it wouldn't recognize pins being knocked over. It would randomly make one player take 3 throws but after the 3rd throw, the pins didn't reset so the next person would be taking their first turn with whatever pins were left over by the last person, not a full 10 pins. Multiple times, our strikes were counted as spares... then there comes just the customer service experience. Those girls could not care less if their equipment works or not. "All lanes you'll ever play will need scores reset from time to time." Um no they don't. Not at Bowlaway Lanes on Ash. The only reason we came to Stardust in the first place is because it was the only place open at the time. My husband ordered a can of beer and it was dirty and sticky. They were playing music in Spanish....which was really weird... Then suddenly in the middle of our game at 2 in the afternoon, they turned off all the lights and made it into "cosmic bowling" where they had one multicolored light on the far right of the alley meanwhile our entire side was pitch black. We could barely see to bowl! And there were no tables anywhere either so there's nowhere to put your drinks or food anywhere near where you'd be bowling. This whole experience was just extremely disappointing. We will never be going there again. Worst bowling alley I've ever been to in my entire life. read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. To start, the Walmart tater tots were not fried Enough and were mushy. Our group of seven was split between two lanes. The first lane with four players constantly acted up. At first it was pins not being collected. The balls had so much grease and wax on them that it felt like you were holding a McDonald's patty. The balls proceeded to be delayed and get stuck. When we asked for assistance we were told to let them know after one or two got stuck. Which is understandable. Within 10 minutes, two more balls got stuck. We then waited for help. The next worker proceeded to tell us that we weren't waiting long enough and throwing the balls too hard. Nevermind the fact that the other three players on the second lane finished the game. We were visibly irritated. So we started to time each ball return. We waited for more than 5 minutes for one ball to come back. A group of 7 who were competitive bowlers, three lanes down finished before we even got to the 5th frame. We finally got so irritated that it had taken over two hours to get to the 8th frame for four people that we left. Upon checking out the lady proceeds to tell us that we wouldn't get a discount and that it was just one game. She then also commented on the balls having stuff on them. THEY WERE HOUSE BALLS. never again. Bowling should be fun. Not a chore. read more

Worst bowling alley ever. Total mood killer. Run down and tacky. Do not suggest if you want to have a fun night bowling

This place is so bad. We get here and there are 2 lanes out of 12 in use and the lady at the counter says "all my good lanes are in use, I guess we can try 2" the lane itself worked pretty well for the most part but that was the only decent part of the experience. As a group of 4 we all ordered burgers and fries. From the first food hitting the table to the last was 45 mins. We got empty bottles of ketchup and mayo and when we asked hem to refill it, it took 6 frames with 4 bowlers bowling. When I checked in on the sauce refill, I was told by the lady at the counter " it's hard to do my job when I'm doing everyone else's". The owner was present for this conversation and just left. The lady at the counter also worked in the kitchen, without gloves (a healthcode violation) and spent lots of time while in the kitchen pulling up her pants and messing with her hair tie, then going on to help prepare food. At other points in the night she was sitting with people bowling and no one was manning the front counter at all. Yea, won't be coming back. read more

This is a pretty decent bowling spot. In spite of the fact that it's little, we were able to get a lane immediately. The music is good and it's walking distance from downtown and Whitman College. We'll totally go back! read more
