Kent Lanes-11th Frame

Had a great time bowling with my family. Only bad thing I have to say is the restroom smell absolutely rancid worst smell I've ever smelt in my life couldn't stop gagging. It didn't even smell like poop it smelt worse I literally ran out of the restroom with my pants still and buttoned

Awesome staff, clean place. Always a good time when I come here. Good music and great times!

So this is a neat place. During the summer they offer volleyball.The interior is nice and clean. It is not the most advances ally nor the largest, but they have a good menu and a lounge. The lanes are nice a smooth and are great for kids and non semi-proSo a good place to have fun.

Lanes are in poor condition. Ball came back so sticky and dirty . There was horrible pin action, the pins must have been sticky too. Would not go back even though senior price was so cheap.

Pretty much your typical bowling alley, nothing fancy, modern or new at all, but does the trick. They have 24 lanes, and if you are on the first or last few lanes, it can get a little tight because there is a wall directly behind you. I recommend sticking to the middle if its busy. What really sets Kent Lanes apart is all of their specials. It seems like they have a moonrock all-you can-bowl deal going every single night. We have done their New Years Eve bowling party the last couple of years and enjoyed it. It's $90 total for 2.5 hours of bowling for up to 6 people, and that includes dinner (salad, garlic bread, pizza, pasta, meatballs, soda, chips). If you go early in the day, be ready to listen to hundreds of kids using their "midnight countdown" noise makers for, well, the entire two hours :)They have a full kitchen and a pretty big bar area, which is a separate room. You can order bar beverages from a window in the bowling alley that connects to the bar. A pitcher was $9, but it seems like they do plenty of specials. They also have volleyball courts and a tiki bar out there while leagues are going on.

I came here to bowl with two other people, we had to wait a few minutes for service since there seemed to be only one person working the desk and delivering food to other bowlers. We were offered a special price of $8 for two hours of bowling plus shoe rentals but decided that since we all had our own shoes, the regular rate of $2.50 per game was slightly less expensive for us. The decor and atmosphere is a little dated but they have automatic scoring. I've seen more elaborate displays but it certainly did what it was intended to do. Keep score! Scince no one needs to sit at the scoring table , they have a nice table and chairs at each lane for in between your frame and for eating and a place for drinks. I found it a little odd that the actual bowling lane is two steps down from the table level. There is a nice sturdy handrail at each lane, though, for those who may need a little assist. I guess it gives you a little extra exercise too! All in all, it was a pleasant way to spend a few hours. Even though the lanes are in Kent, OH and a little out of my usual travel route, I would not hesitate to meet up here with friends from the area. Happy Bowling!

Love this place! Early Sunday bowling with a great breakfast brought to your lanes while you bowl! Can't beat it. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Our family hadn't bowled in 3 years but we made it out here 6 weeks in a row cause everyone had such a great time.

Very small place, the inside is very dated. Lane are not maintained, no oil on lanes, very little pin action. The balls came back very slowly, if at all. Then the lights were turned out so you couldn't even see where you were throwing the ball. Will not go back.

My son's Boy Scout troop set up a bowling event at this alley. When we arrived we noticed the parking lot was almost full. Whatever. It was Monday so we guessed it was a league night. We get up to the doors and immediately turned right back around and left. Every lane was full with as many bowlers as you could pack into one bowling alley. I'm talking so many people you wouldn't be able to walk without running into someone. Social distancing during a pandemic where not everyone is vaccinated wasn't even close to being possible. On top of that not a mask in sight. There was no way that they could have properly disinfected the two lanes we reserved. Nor would there have been an even remotely safe way for the boys to social distance from the other people. Not only did we leave, but we will not be back to those lanes.

Great fun and clean environment. Would highly recommend to all. Nice bar with good bar food and very friendly staff.
