    Operating since 1945. The only bowling alley in the town since Mission Lanes was demolished in 1995. Bought in 2001 by an LA screenwriter best known for the Revenge of the Nerds movies.

    Place is huge and has a lot to offer, the lanes or decent but they have a bar, pro shop, cafe, billiards and an arcade to make up for it. Thumbs up

    Actually pretty good food from the snack bar. Actual bar is a dump, but u get liquor/beer to bring back to the lane & that's all that's needed.

    The nachos and the cookies are insane! Youd never think a bowling alley has that ridiculously good appetizers!

    For the kiddos, the lane bumpers fall down a lot, & the only 2 ball-roller assist things are falling apart.
