    If you're able to get on Base, this is the best place to bowl in the North Bay Area. Friendly staff, modern equipment, clean, & you can't beat the price. $3.50 per game per bowler. They have a little restaurant inside called Ten Pins. Fries are the best & the rest of their food is pretty dang decent for a bowling alley!

    We headed up to Travis Bowl to meet up with some friends for a bowling night. When we got there everyone was a bit empty on the tummy so we went straight to the Strike Zone Grill. We got an order of Nachos, Hot Dogs, Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Cheeseburger, Criss Cut Fries and three beverages. The total was under twenty bucks wow! The food was pretty good and the fries rocked in taste and crispy goodness - yummy! After our meal we got our bowling shoes and hit the lanes. I haven't bowled in quite a while but I somehow managed to pick up four strikes in a game not bad I guess. This place sported 32 lanes, LCD TVs and background music for your bowling pleasure. Thanks Will & Jane! Everyone had a great time...

    Haven't been here in years since I lost my base privileges. But I was pleasantly surprised by the newly renovated Travis Bowling Alley! I grew up hanging out here when I was younger and loved coming here for $1.00 Bowling days over the summer. The renovations make it look more modern with new tables, couches, bar stools, ball racks, and a brand new kitchen. Love how they still kept the "Travis Bowl" insignia on the wall! Of course its been updated to the times of technology cuz the Bowling system is now Computer controlled with funny cartoon animations popping up after each time you bowl or to celebrate your Strike or Spare. Bowling is $2.50/person and shoe rental is $2.00. Be sure to tell them your EXACT shoe size cuz their shoes run big and you'll most likely be one size smaller than your actual shoe size. Brownie points for the cool staff cuz they were able to accommodate our group despite the New Years bowling tournament going on. Their FOOD, especially the Bacon Cheeseburger, was just as simple and delicious as I remembered it! Kinda disappointed that Crisscut Fries were cut from their Menu, so ended up with a side order of their Crispy Onion Rings instead. They do offer pitchers of Beer such as Bud light and Corona and you're only allowed to drink them at the Dining tables and NOT in the bowling area. Overall, the bowling alley is just as pleasant as I remembered and I had a blast bowling with my friends. Guess I'll have to sucker my military friends into bringing me on base next time I wanna bowl here again! ;)

    Clean and friendly staff. Friday nights they do have league night so we left early. Food was good and we plan to visit often. Walking distance from TLF. Fun for the family to get out of the room and do something fun.

    Super cheap and modern equipment. It's on the base so you need to go with somebody in the military.

    Reserved a lane at Crush Lounge for my family on Tock since lately my son has been obsessed with…read morebowling. This was his first "real" bowling experience outside of using small, kiddie bowling sets or paper cups. They had 3 (out of 5 or 6?) working lanes and we go there right at opening so we could pick our lane. We made a reservation on Tock and when we arrived they said they were still "setting up". Not sure what that meant, but we waited about 15 minutes while 4-5 people stood behind the bar. They finally let us downstairs to the alleys where we were able to get our bowling shoes and put in a food order. The food selection was not bad, but after leaving, I realized I ordered two kid menu items which come with a drink, entree, and ice cream...but they gave us the entrees and not the drinks or ice cream. When the orders came out, they had also forgotten on of the entrees as well. Good thing I noticed the missing burger, but wompwomp on missing the additional kid meal items. Make sure you check your orders!! The spicy chicken sandwich and the buffalo wings were super slathered in sauce and very salty. The kids burger was burnt and my toddler didn't touch it. The fries and quesadilla were really good though! The kids had a fun time with the bowling experience - they had kid friendly items like a ramp for the ball and bumpers..plus some 7 lbs balls that my 3-year old was able to manage lol. Overall ok experience and a nice thing to do with the family.

And it was so good- lots of crispy bacon and fresh tomato and lettuce. The bun was fresh and soft but held up well (read not soggy) against the tomato and mayo. My husband opted for the soft pretzel, was was piping hot upon arrival and came with two sauces- a mustard sauce and a cheese sauce. We finished it all. The sandwich was so large, I took half back to our room to eat for later. Crush Lounge also has a small bowling alley with several lanes. We didn't get to try it as it was reserved for an event, but this is such a cool feature of the property. This is a solid spot for a quick bite to eat or for drinks when staying at the Meritage.

We were surprised that it wasn't very busy, so there were plenty of lanes available without much of a wait. Our server was friendly and attentive throughout the night, and the entire facility was clean and well maintained. They also have a pretty large arcade section and a full bar, so there's plenty to do beyond just bowling. We ordered one of the fishbowl-style margaritas to share, but it barely tasted like it had any alcohol. We ended up ordering a second one and still didn't really feel much, which was a little disappointing. As for the food, it was definitely better than your typical bowling alley food, but nothing that really stood out. We accidentally ordered the mozzarella bites instead of mozzarella sticks because we didn't read the menu carefully--that was totally on us! The bites were actually tasty, just not what we were expecting. The lemon pepper boneless wings were a bit too salty for our taste and were drier than we had hoped. The fries were exactly what you'd expect, good, classic fries. The best part of the night was the bowling itself. We managed to squeeze in about eight games in two hours, so we definitely felt like we got our money's worth! Overall, we had a fun experience and would absolutely come back, whether it's for another date night or to celebrate a birthday with friends. If you're looking for a clean, modern bowling alley with good service, arcade games, and a fun atmosphere, Lucky Strike is definitely worth checking out.

    I also want to give a very special thank-you to one of the managers who was working on 9/18. I…read moresincerely apologize if I'm spelling her name incorrectly, but I believe it was Arianna or Aranna. She has long blonde hair, is very soft-spoken, kind, and was incredibly understanding. I'm sure the staff will know exactly who I'm referring to. Unfortunately, before our party, my mother had a very upsetting interaction with one of the younger staff members while simply trying to get information about the party. My mother lives out of state and was helping pay for her grandson's 9th birthday, so she was only trying to make sure everything was taken care of. She absolutely did not deserve to be yelled at or made to feel uncomfortable. I also personally had a difficult experience with the front desk staff between approximately 9:00 and 10:30. Simple questions could not be answered without asking someone else, and at one point it took going through three different employees before someone could give me an answer. The customer service at the front desk definitely needs improvement. With such a busy environment and children and families everywhere, I really believe the younger staff need more training, guidance, and supervision on how to communicate professionally with customers. However, the way this manager handled the situation completely changed the direction of our experience. She listened. She was calm, compassionate, and genuinely concerned about how my mother had been treated. Most importantly, she didn't dismiss what happened or make excuses. She took responsibility as a manager, told us the situation would be addressed with the employees involved, and then went out of her way to give us additional time so we could regain some of the time and enjoyment that had been taken away by the earlier situation. That meant SO much to me. Instead of allowing one negative interaction to overshadow my son's birthday, she helped turn the experience around. She made my mother feel heard and respected again, and she gave our family the opportunity to move past that stressful moment and get back to what we were there for -- celebrating my son and making memories. That is what good management looks like. Problems can happen anywhere, especially in a busy establishment, but how management responds makes all the difference. She handled the situation with grace, professionalism, empathy, and kindness. Between her stepping in and Kari being absolutely incredible with our party, what could have easily become a stressful and disappointing experience turned into an AMAZING birthday for my son and our family. Thank you so much for taking care of my mother, listening to our concerns, and making things right. I truly hope management recognizes you for the way you handled everything. You turned a moment of distress into a moment where we could relax, have fun, and enjoy the celebration again.
