Beaver-Vu Bowl

I enjoyed bowling here on a Saturday night with a group of about a dozen people. I am a HORRIBLE bowler, but I appreciated the opportunity to get together with a group of (almost) equally matched bad A$$ bowlers. We arrived at the tail-end of some sort of tournament, but were pretty quickly attended to with a generous offer of free shoe rental (they sure are SCHNAZZZZY!!) for our larger group. Bowling was fun, MUCH more automated scoring than I remember (it's been a WHILE...) and lots of "extras," including all the flashy lights, music, and food and drink options you'd expect. Their pizza looks SO GOOD that it had me wishing we hadn't eaten already at that "piazza" next door... Oh well, next time!!No "strike outs" here, have fun and be sure you get the FABULOUS red shoes (though they didn't help my lousy games AT ALL!!) :-)

It might work for family bowling night or something, but absolutely ridiculous for tournament play. No seating - or the few seats there are are taken by people waiting in line in the rain before they open. Wouldn't drive the hour to get here again.

I had a CLOSING scheduled at 1:00 PM and wanted to celebrate with a BADA$$ grilled cheese before we started! There is no better place to get that sandwich than the bowling ally... ALANA was on the grill and did not disappoint. That grilled cheese and french fry combo was one of the best I've ever had!!! Thank you so much!! That's how you celebrate a win!!!

Perfect night out with friends! We decided to simply rent a lane for one hour rather than paying per game. Our party of three was able to squeeze two games into about 45 minutes, just to give you an idea. One hour is $25 and renting shoes is $3.50/person. Not too bad. I'm curious to call and ask if they have balls for young kids to play. If so, I'll definitely bring my son for a mother son date night because I already know they do have bumpers!

I went bowling with the kids this afternoon at Beaver - Vu. The bowling alley is quite nice and very kid friendly. They have different bowling options. You can either buy a family package "by the hour" or pay per game. The bowling shoes we rented where on good shape. Thanks God! I hate nothing more then outworn old ones.. lol We got some fries and drinks while we where bowling from the snack bar. The snack bar was very clean - big plus. I overheard the two staff members talking about having all the dishes done for the oncoming shift to make it easier for them. I thought that was really nice and tells me that there must be a good team work. We had a good time and the kids really liked it.

I love Beaver-Vu Bowl. I consider it my "home lanes" because I have done so many leagues there. Staff is chill and friendly, but the service at the main bar area near the dining is slow. The bathrooms are kind of dingy as well. Other than that, great place!

Fun bowling alley. We came in on a Saturday afternoon around 1pm. The place wasn't very busy so we were able to get a lane pretty quick. The lady Wendy behind the counter was great about running through all our options since we had a big group (about 11). We opted for the normal pay by game option but she was right if we had all paid together and gone with the family 2 hr special it probably would have saved us some $$. The lane had some issues (the bumper kept getting stuck up for all the bowlers not just the kiddos) and they didn't have a kids ramp (it had been borrowed and not returned yet.) The food was decent and it was prepared pretty quickly. I really enjoyed the pizza (so much so I almost forgot to take even the photo I snapped. We also tried the tater tots (a must) and the cheese curds. The cheese curds were okay but they had a little too much batter and a little too little cheese curd for me. All in all it was a fun time for the family. We would come again if the family wanted to.

This placed is AWLAYS packed- or looks it from the outside. Seriously, I always thought this was the go-to spot for bowlers in Beavercreek because the parking lot is ALWAYS packed brim with cars. In actuality, it's only decently busy. On a Friday evening, my party of 4 was one of three- maybe even four if I'm being generous- parties. The lanes were clean, the chairs/tables were comfortable enough for a 9 months pregnant behemoth (me!) and the machines used to track scores were kinda dated, but still in good working order. The staff were hospitable enough and the bathrooms were decently clean!, despite the green stuff on the ceiling. The only really annoying thing was that EVERYTHING we wanted to order was unavailable. Literally. Couldn't even get pizza. Overall, the experience was underwhelming.

This place is pretty big, so even when it's busy there are always lots of lanes open.Usually there are lots of parties here. When that happens all the lighter balls are taken and you're left with the heavier bowling balls.The price for a shoe rental is less than $3 and the type of shoes they rent out are the kinds where you tie instead of the velcro kind.It was easy to navigate the computer to add in your names. And we had fun here.If you're interested they serve pizza, beer, hot dogs and more here. All for a fairly low price.There's a whole bar too. And a pro shop. Tons of parking.

Sent us out at 9:30 when they closed at 11. The manager came and said there was no one bowling so they were going to close down in 15 minutes. When I replied but we are here to bowl, they were speechless. We were denied bowling so they could leave an hour and a half early. By the manager non the less. Terrible customer service and utterly disrespectful. We visit the area frequently and will never be back.
