This is a fun place to come and bowl! It looks shady from the outside but it is a ton of fun and great for a work party. The drinks are good and the bowling is not going to break the bank. They have food and drink specials and just a fun place to come on a weekend. Also enjoy it does not smell like an ashtray here!

I think this place is such a gem! You wouldn't think it would be, but it truly is. I personally love how they still have the old school bowling lanes (probably original if I had to guess). It gives the place so much charm and makes for a cool atmosphere. Cheap alcohol prices too. I came here with a group on a Saturday night and we bowled upstairs. The sound system on both floors is awesome if you're one who likes to have the music loud when you're bowling. Great service all evening. No complaints here but I do have to say, be careful getting your ball off the rails - there's no sides to them so the balls can easily fall on to the floor and get your feet. If you and your group are conscious about this, then you'll be fine!

A good old taste of the West Side. Cheap beer, cheap bowling, and a trashy jukebox. On Wednesdays they have $1 beer and $1 games of bowling. Go there, crank up some Journey, and make fun of the native West Siders. Upstairs bowling rules. The only place that compares remotely is the Clique.

Great atmosphere. Wouldn't recommend ordering food as it's lower quality than hole in the wall bar food. Friendly staff

From cheap bowling, reasonable drink prices, and yes, that random thirty something pony tail man making turkey noises.

Came in Saturday 1/31/26 around 10pm after a show at the DeVos…read more It's pretty loud with all the bowling and music. But we could still have a conversation. Bar service was great! Very friendly. Drinks were delicious and reasonably priced! Not always the case in GR. We hope to come back and bowl another time!

Haters will say that duckpin bowling isn't real bowling, but an astute mind will realize: Does it…read moreeven matter? When you've had a drink or two, it's all just throwing balls and knocking things over. Woodrows Duckpin is the only duckpin bowling alley in Grand Rapids, as far as I can tell. It's a great place to get a drink and knock things over. In fact, you should be aware that you can only get things to drink here -- they don't sell any food. But you're welcome to bring in your own food. We opted to just get beverages (sodas for kids, beer and wine for the adults) and eat elsewhere after we played. You can reserve a lane for an hour at a time. An hour of duckpin bowling was more than enough for me and my family! Games go by quickly, and I think we played three games in about 45 minutes, then peaced-out with 15 minutes left on our tab. (But we had our fun and got our money's worth.) Duckpin bowling uses smaller balls that are more lightweight than regular bowling balls, so it's easier for young kids to play. Think skee ball, but on a slightly larger scale. Honestly, I think I prefer duckpin bowling to regular bowling! It feels more laid-back and less serious. There's a nice lounge in Woodrows Duckpin, which is pleasant to sit in when you're not playing, or if you're waiting for your lane to be ready. Woodrows is also attached to the Amway Grand Plaza, so if you're staying at that hotel, it's just a quick jaunt downstairs.

Woodrows Duckpin - Options of different games you can choose. No idea what the differences are - need better instructions.

This was my first time at a bowling alley in many years. I did not know what to expect…read more It was a fun place to bowl with a clean, well-kept atmosphere. The lanes were in good shape and the staff were friendly and helpful (for the most part). Shout out to the bartender/server that came around to take our orders at the lanes. He was very nice and attentive. They also had plenty of food and drink options, which made it easy to hang out for a while. The only downside is that it's a bit pricey, but overall the experience was worth it. Great spot if you're looking for a fun day/night out with friends or family. I don't have anything to compare it to with other bowling alleys in the area. Maybe the prices are on target with other places. I just know that for us to bowl, rent shoes, appetizer, 2 beers, and one soda = about $90.00. We would come here again. I think it was worth it. My kid had a great time!

I am standing outside AMF. We called to make sure they were open. The receptionist answered and…read moresaid yes. We tried to get inside, and the doors are locked. We called again and asked if they were open now. The receptionist said yes. We told her the door was locked. She said she'd open it. She never came. I am standing outside in 20 degrees with my 4 year old and 6 year old who are now crying. Happy New Year. Please hire people who care and want to work. I'm not too sure why you're paying an employee who literally isn't working.
