The Yummiest Bowling in Stockton

Strikes & Spares Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (39) • $$

"Updating my review because I just ate here again! The sever Donyella is the nicest person ever. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. They are open!! Come eat here. I love this place. I will be back soon."

Delta Bowl

★★★★☆ 3.7 (106)

"It's one of the last family ran places and reasonably priced for the whole family. They actually grill the dogs which makes it taste so much better. They have an arcade for those who are not interested or waiting to bowl.You do have combo of families, pros and beginners who have not learned about bowling etiquette. One thing I really like is you if you pay for 3 full games you play 3 full games, there's no timer's chasing you down."

West Lane Bowl

★★★☆☆ 3 (94)

"Not your grandpa's bowling alley! This is a bowling center that is happening! Been going here for years. Not my home center but for tournaments and match club events. It is well run and always filled and fun.Yesterday, I was there for Granada Match Club hosted by Stockton Match Club. Always friendly, I continue to enjoy my visits here. From stepping in the two door set, you can see a clean and inviting place. The Pro Shop is to your right and stocked well (not everyone's is). Left to the bar area (not a drinker for not usually found there but it is large). The staff is knowledgeable and welcoming at the front counter. 38 lanes were all filled in the morning due to a youth tournament. I miss those with my kids as they grow up in the great NorCal youth programs. The restaurant has been top notch for many years. A variety of food that is well made. I usually have a chef salad which is huge. Yesterday I elected for a ham and cheese omelette with hash browns and an English muffin. Wonderful. Food quality has never gone wrong in all my years visiting.Located on a West Lane, a busy Stockton road for sure, they have a large parking lot in front so never an issue finding a spot. While the lot is wearing, the classic Bowl sign is retro (back in again) and a comforting marker of tradition. Inside, is not your old bowl...it is fresh, lively, and lovely."

FLB Entertainment Center

★★★★☆ 3.8 (337) • $$

"Our first time here a few weeks ago when my sister and her family were all visiting from Ohio for the week. We reserved 2 lanes side by side and had the best of times bowling and enojoying the clean and friendly environment at FLB. The bowling place overall is well kept and in a very organized manner. The staff very friendly and welcoming and the entire experience was truly never ending fun filled with smiles galore and laughter with cheers as we bowled and had fun with the music as well. Love that the music wasn't too loud. Some places the music is so loud you need to yell in order to hear one another however FLB had the music just loud enough to enjoy and still be able to talk to one another and hear one another. Plenty of parking as well which is a nice plus. The only draw back to this bowling place is as soon as the hour or 2 hour time frame in our case is up the score board ends as well. We were not able to finish our last turn for 2 of us to get our final scores. Just about 2 to 3 minutes or so and we would have been able to finish the game. Would prefer if we could pay by how many rounds we could play instead of per hour so that we could complete each round. We were laughing and trying our fastest to finish up before the clock reached the final second hour however just missed it by a few minutes! Still was a funtastic overall experience and we are surely going to be return bowlers!"

Lodi Bowling Lounge & Bar

★★★★☆ 3.7 (164) • $$

"Lodi Bowl is definitely a great spot for all events from casual to celebrations! It has become a tradition that we stop by here for any family birthdays! Not only is the vibe here really great but so is the selection of food! To top it all off the staff is really accommodating and we have always been more than happy with the service! As a family run business, it is a great addition to downtown Lodi and you can genuinely see the attention to detail! Also bookings are super easy to make online!"

Lucky Bowler Pro Shop

★★★★★ 4.7 (44) • $$

"Excellent service, reasonable cost. I needed a lighter weight ball due to back issues. Got a good deal and was out of there quickly while they helped several customers at the same time."

Round1 Bowling & Arcade - Concord

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (574) • $$

"I really like it here! Roomy, clean, decent service, and lots of pick a toy machines, arcades, bowling alley, and Karaoke Rooms... what more can one asks for when comes to entertainment!?! ;) Oh, and they have a decent food menu and ice cream for only 99-cents!! Surely no one in town can beat their ice cream deal!"

McHenry Bowl

★★★☆☆ 3 (113)

"My family & I were very fortunate that this place was open on Christmas Day. We enjoyed a nice family outing here and were pleased that there wasn't to many people when we came. The staff was kind & attentive, but I am giving a 4 instead of a 5 star review because the restrooms were messy but regardless we enjoyed ourselves. It was nice to see there's a bar area. There wasn't a bar tender there to fix up some mixed drinks we wanted, however there was a lovely gentleman that tried his best & sold my fiancé a beer & made me a mixed drink with tequila and soda. Overall a decent bowling experience here"

Bellevue Bowl

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (92) • $$

"The food is okay, service is good, bowling is funI don't think I can comment much on the bowling, it was fun, but my bowling high score was 75... They had bumper bowling for the kids and adults too. They had a blast playing. There are also bowling assisted equipment there.They also have Laser tag, $8 per person, but we didn't try it this time around.The chili was good, the Korean boneless chicken wings were okay, not crunchy enough, and the garlic fries were excellent.The atmosphere was nice not too loud.They have an arcade inside but a little bit expensive to play the games."

Gold Country Lanes

★★★★☆ 3.7 (45) • $

"We'd never been here before and thought we'd give it a try. What a fun time! Went on a Thursday night and they had a league going, but got us right in. The place looks new inside and we were told it had been recently remodeled. Comfortable seating, friendly staff any good fries/pretzels. Plus, they have gutter bumpers you can set to pop up for only the bowler that needs them. It's a drive for us, but I'm sure we'll be back."

Earl Anthony's Dublin Bowl

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (267)

"This place is always busy! I drive by often on my way to the freeway and there are always cars in the lot. I mean, definitely a good thing. I love seeing businesses with business! It was a 25 min wait for a lane on a Sunday night at 6pm. There are arcade games, a lounge with a bar, and a food service counter while you wait. I also saw a pro shop but it was closed when we were there. The staff are friendly and the vibes are good here. As far as cost goes, a little pricey in the bowling alley realm but a fun activity for any day or night of the week. And they're open late for all you night owls out there!"

The Alley

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (217)

"We are regular customers at the Alley and have noticed management change. I would say, this is one of the best bowling alley but recently I feel this place does not meet my expectations. And few issues need to be addressed. First of all, the bathrooms are stinking from outside. By the way, we were there right when this placed opened on Sunday at noon. This is not the first time we've experienced bathroom stinking so much. Today the floors were incredibly sticky. Another major concern is the lack of accessibility compliance with the screens for viewing the scores. They change the color of screen when the time is about to end. For estimated 15 minutes, it was neon screen and hard to view the count down of the timer and scores. I hope the management takes steps for cleanliness and accessibility. My family enjoys the bowling alley, I just hope next time it's better experience."

Knotty Pine Lanes

★★★★☆ 3.8 (43)

"We had so much fun here! Came on Halloween night after trick-or-treating. Service was friendly and they had a lane open for us in only 10 minutes. We came from Swansboro and was definitely worth the drive. Will be back to enjoy again soon!"

Granada Bowl

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (179)

"Decided to bowl here on a Saturday and it wasn't super busy and plenty of lanes open. I called ahead and the staff informed me that it was first come first serve and reservations were not required. It's spacious and clean, a little more dated than other bowing alleys I've visited but they've got cool features like galaxy bowling, a decently sized arcade, bar area, and food stand. My group didn't order any food or drinks but the menu prices were very affordable. The staff is awesome and were really helpful with helping us decide on how many hours to play for according to their prices. We stared with one hour and we were able to add more hours at our lane if we wanted to continue. Bowling shoes are clean and disinfected upon return, socks are $1 a pair. They have a great playlist too!"

West Valley Bowl

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (76)

"My wife and I went to this bowling alley for the first time yesterday. We live in Manteca, where Bowlero is just down the street, but $170 to reserve a lane for two hours is just not gonna happen.This is your classic bowling alley! I love that about it. No fancy bells and whistles. They have a lounge, and there's a BBQ spot right next to it.We went on a random Thursday before 5pm. You can't beat the prices. We played two games and rented shoes for a whoopin' total of $28.Service was great! Really kind people. I believe this is still family-owned? We will definitely be back. I think we've found our new bowling place while we're still living in the Valley!"

Ten Pin Fun Center

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (242)

"Such a fun place to hang out with friends or take your kiddos. We started out with eating at their restaurant. You can order while bowling but we decided to dine in. We ordered their French dip Detroit pizza and their quesadilla. Both really delicious and would get again. Their cocktails were also super delish. Tried the lemon drop, berry mule and something sweet. We bowled for an hour and a half. An hour would have been perfect. The service was amazing though and our server checked on us multiple times. They have an arcade section as well, a great place to play especially if you are waiting for your lane."

Bowlero Alameda

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (260)

"Solid spot to hang out with friends!We bought a Groupon beforehand for the 4 of us that includes 2 hours of unlimited play + shoe rental for ~$16 per person. That's not bad at all!With the Groupon, you have to walk in. Luckily, when we came Saturday afternoon around 3:30, there were plenty of lanes available.Ambiance was good. It was comfortable inside with red and blue lighting and pop hits blasting over the speakers. Everything looked new and clean.Ordering food and drinks is easy. You can see the menu and order from the machine at your lane. We ordered a pitcher of beer to share, which cost around $35 and was enough for 4 glasses. We also shared a large order of fries for around $11. My one complaint is that they cut you off right at the 2 hour mark. We were trying to squeeze 3 games into the 2 hours, and we were so close! Literally it was the last person's 10th (i.e. last) ball, but the game cut off and wouldn't let him bowl, so it felt a bit unsatisfying to end the game with one unfinished roll. There should be a little bit of leeway around this."

Country Club Lanes

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (307)

"They recently put in new carpet!!!! It's bright, fun and still gives the 80's vibes. Can you tell I'm an 80's kid. Our kids love going to the Arcade here, I love that they participate with the Get Out Pass which we have so we come here often. I didn't take pics of the bowling alley part but I also like the Sacramento art work here. I grew up in North Highlands so this is a fun place to bring my kids and tell them this is where we often hung out at as kids."

Yosemite Lanes

★★★★☆ 3.7 (92)

"Great bar and food. While you're bowling or watching them bowl it's good. Service is friendly and fast. Could be in a better location in town but easy to get to. They do have several different events so there it is another spot in town to try."

Pacific Avenue Bowl

★★★★☆ 3.6 (87) • $$

"I've been coming to Pacific Avenue Bowl for many years dating back to childhood. It's a great spot to hang out for bowling and have a fantastic time with friends, family, co-workers, teammates, by yourself, etc. The staff members are always helpful and friendly. I like how there is a bar area for drinks. All of my visits have been positive experiences. I recommend coming here."

Black Oak Lanes

★★★★☆ 3.5 (17)

"What a blast! My daughter and her friends had such a great time bowling, eating pizza and hanging out with her friends. I was an ease knowing they were safe and sound. The bowling alley has many different options and choices for graphics, bumpers; lights and so much more! This is not regular bowling folks! They have some really good employees too who were helpful, kind and efficient! They can get busy; but you will never wait in line for too long! They are good in there! This gentleman, who unfortunately I forgot his name, was exceptionally professional and a great representative of Black Oak. I cannot wait to bring the girls back again for another few rounds of bowling. There is plenty of free: safe and well lit parking as well as ADA options for inside and outside compliance. They even have these ball ramps to help with ADA and/or children. It's incredible and a great family fun time"
