Yorktown Lanes

It's been years since I've been here. The place was great, was clean and staff was friendly.

I've been here a few different times -- for my cousins' graduation parties and just for normal bowling--and have always had a decent experience. On my most recent trip, I noticed that they've upgraded the scoring machines so they're a lot more easy to use, plus you get a few different options for the background on the TV, which my little cousins loved. We did 2 games of bowling for 4 people + shoe rentals, and it was like $40, which is kinda pricey, but also not a terrible way to kill a couple of hours during the summer.

Customer service from non-bar staff could be improvedAbove average lane conditionsVery popular spot on weekdaysKnowledgeable pro shopCould use some cosmetic updatesDoes not cater to serious bowlers

Went for open bowling, had a buddy in from out of town and were looking for some low key things to do on his last before his long flight home to San Fran. Their open bowling, didn't start til 9:30, after all the league's, which is understandable. So, we stayed and had a beer at the bar. Seems to be friendly, use to go here all the time growing up, for bowling, and sea legs w/butter, it was a staple snack for years growing up in HTS.

They SURELY made me change my review. The owner made things right! I appreciate that a lot. VERY RARE. This man KNOWS customer service. My partner and I went back and enjoyed ourselves.

There's a million & one places to find a burger in this, or any other American city for that matter, but I selected this local bowling alley for today's solo lunch.I never thought I'd use college level algebra until today, but it sure came in handy while ordering a Mushroom & Swiss burger with fries, I was informed that they were out of the 1/2 lb. patties, so I suggested that the burger slinger use two 1/4 lb. patties instead. The burger was fantastic - if you're looking for artery-clogging goodness - and being the trained nutritionist that I am, I quaffed two Bud Lights to wash away any residual cholesterol. *Also, just to show you how behind-the-times I am, I commented on the bowling pin-shaped beer bottles and the waitress looked at me as if I came from a different planet. I probably should visit bowling alleys more often.Photos: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/7crqidkHX6HZUmrnIJ1cjANote:* Hi, my name is Jack and I'm a pathological liar.

This has become our "neighborhood" bar. It's cozy, close to our home, and unpretentious. The beer selection is decent. I can get a Great Lakes or Guinness and my husband can get his Budweiser or Labatt. It's a fun place to bowl for leagues or open bowling. The place is clean and the staff is friendly. It's got great kitsch. It's doesn't have amazing vegetarian food selections but I don't expect it to. It's bar food. The grilled cheese is cheese and bread that's grilled. The french fries are salty and hot. We've spent the whole night eating free popcorn. Mmmm popcorn. My best friend had her wedding reception here and it was the best! We danced! We bowled! All was right with the world

I went here on a Saturday night and arrived around 10:30. I was instantly welcomed in by manager Josh and his disgusting attitude. He then asked me how many people we had and how many games we wanted to bowl. I responded with four and he asked if we wanted four games each or four games total. I told Josh we would like four games total as we would be there for a while. Right before the end of the 1st game our game was cut short. No issues here we talked to one of the staff members and he fixed it and let me know it was because we had an extra person show up on the lane and he did not pay. We finished that game and the 2nd game now also will not start. I go and ask Josh what's the issue as we paid for four games total. He explained to me I paid for one game for each person which was a total of $30 dollars. I asked how other people were still bowling and he proceeded to say they paid to bowl the whole night which was $20! I asked why we weren't offered this and Josh told stated "Because you weren't here before 10 so I could not offer it". I had Josh print the receipt which said 10:33pm and this is where the lies and back tracking just kept piling up as his attitude for his mistake got worse. I asked to pay the difference for our party so that we could bowl the rest of the night and Josh tried to make us repay as if we were never there. After arguing back and forth Josh, with his professionalism, let me know that he would "Eat" the loss and allow me to pay the difference. (Wow how wonderful of you) We over paid for the night, ate cold food because we argued with Josh about fixing his mistake for 15-20mins and wasted time that we could have spent bowling.

Yorktown is a fine bowling establishment . Host to PWBA tournament, leagues, and open bowling. The staff is friendly and their catered meals are delicious!

Whoever the guy at the counter was tonight couldn't have left a more horrible impression. It was giving RUDE and RACIST. We all were carrying our own bags and he took the time to chase us down stating that we needed to pay even though we already had a party there and were going to set our bags down then head to the counter, thank for jumping to conclusions. We then got charged an extra 3 games and shoe rental, he did not take any accountability nor did they apologize for the mistake, they just handed us the cash that they over charged and said "you can go bowl now". Fries were soaked in oil and the Ginger Ale was flat. Will be sure to not come back or recommend this place to anyone. We are extremely disappointed with the service.
