Linbrook Bowl

When considering a bowling venue, it's important to remember that you often get what you pay for. The pricing is reasonably advantageous for large groups, potentially making it a great option for gatherings. However, there are some issues with the lane quality. For instance, my lane experienced malfunctions during reracks at least three times, leading to an approximate 10-minute wait for repairs. Unfortunately, this downtime was deducted from our overall play time, which may be a consideration for future customers.

My friend JG and I occasionally meet up for lunch when our schedules align. But this time, she suggested something different: "Let's go bowling!" I was all in, ready to roll some strikes!Bowling Alley (Front) - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=U6nikx9NKSTUQ8YGKwKQsQ&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQWe headed to Linkbrook Bowl, an old-school alley with a unique setup. Instead of the usual long rows of lanes, it had two sets on opposite sides of the building. "Genius!" (They have 40 lanes in total.) I really liked the layout.Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=KcO4f2yRyUMRZ9cNfpGYKw&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQIt was a quiet late afternoon on a weekday, perfect for bowling. The guy at the counter was friendly and got us set up quickly.Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=umonPQTrcTVtKwCfM8hKHg&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ JG had already secured our lane when I arrived.Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=SzyoIm5LFUaVmTqhX6oz5A&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQCost - Lane rental: $18/hrShoe rental: $4(My friend, JG, had her own shoes and ball.)One hour lane rental with two blowers was just enough for us to play two games. We had a fun time!The lanes were quite oily, making it tricky for the ball to grip. They kept sliding sideways. The selection of bowling balls was limited, but hey, they were the usual house balls you'd expect at a community alley. I grabbed two, one regular and one semi-conventional.JG mentioned the KOPA Room, a bar inside the alley. Apparently, karaoke nights on Fridays and Saturdays are a big hit there.Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=pLc-txRup2TyKxKWcbFOpQ&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ- Big Aloha!Food: n/a (Didn't order anything to eat; maybe next time!)Ambiance: 4Service: 4Value: 4

This is a very traditional old school bowling alley - which I love and you don't see around much anymore. They even have a diner attached to it if you want a bite to eat. Me and my friends came here on a Saturday midday and it wasn't overly crowded and the prices are by the hour plus shoe rental. They also have a bar but they mostly serve beers and seltzers. Great spot for bowling!

Not a vibe at all, as soon as I walked in it reeked of old shoes/feet. Busted the biggest U turn and went to concourse. Wasn't able to try the food nor the drinks

Came here on a Friday night and had to wait about 30-40 minutes. Price per lane: $37 after 5pm. And shoe rentals were $4.75. For a party of 5, it comes out to $20 per person, which is amazing for the price. We got lane 39, and our group thoroughly enjoyed our time playing. The lanes were oiled well, and the fans were working properly. The only downside is the limited bowling balls. Our group had trouble finding the correct sizes. The fans kept us cool, and we had a fun time. Definitely coming back.

Lanes are nice & spacious with newer monitors. Bar service was the highlight...especially when you need "spirits" to lighten the blow. The guys I was playing with...they downplayed their secret love for bowling! So many strikes I thought they struck out, but it was really just my gutter balls that kept us amused. Have fun!

Came here for a Motiv ball try out and brought my friend and his wife and my girlfriend. Guy at the front was nice enough when we finally wanted a lane. Driest conditions ever plus the air doesn't work on the ball return. Went and asked if they could do anything. Guy laughed and said that air doesn't work. So I asked what do we do. He laughs and says it doesn't work. So we stay on it? He says yup... I told him I expect a refund. He laughed again

Great price ($18 per hour) nice lanes and not so crowded. Friendly staff. Lots of parking.
