Albemarle Bowling Center

Went last night with my roommates and my girlfriend. Driving past it looks huge but it's not that big. They had maybe 20 lanes. Shoe rentals are $3 and games are $4.50 per person per game. We played three games had a few drinks they have limited options no liquor, the prices are around 3.75 for half of the choices and 3.25 for the other half. This is also the first bowling alley in my life i have ever been to that doesn't sell food, it's also the first that allows you to order food and have it delivered to the bowling alley and eat it inside but you can't have outside drinks? It mainly got 4 stars because the staff made the experience enjoyable because they were all super friendly and they were always willing to help. Will return again

This is a pretty small bowling alley (12 lanes I think?), but Elizabeth City is a pretty small town. Just make sure to call ahead and confirm that you aren't trying to bowl on a league night! They charge by the game instead of by the hour, which is a definite plus. And they offer late night Rock-n-Bowl sessions on the weekend, which is fun for the younger crowd (since the music they play tends not to "rock," but rather to "suck"). Negatives? Every single time I've been, I've witnessed a lane malfunctioning--pretty sure the equipment is kinda old. The beer is overpriced. And the coin-op pool tables are $1 a game. I'm from freakin' San Francisco, where nothing is cheap, and I NEVER saw a table that played for more than $.75, so that's a mad rip-off. Saving graces? The employees are very nice, and there is a touchscreen terminal that has Photo Hunt!

This is really cheap and great! The service is amaizing and are willing to help. I definitely recommend this.

Absolute garbage!! Made a reservation on Friday night for a lane on Saturday night. However, as we showed up on time we were welcomed with....your reservation was cancelled. "Someone came in and said you didn't want your lane". Completely shocking how anyone can come in off the street and cancel your lane. Also, my party consisted of my husband (who was working and hadn't made it their yet), my 9 yr old daughter and myself. I asked how that was possible since someone from our party hadn't even been there yet. Conveniently the entire place was packed (guess why my reservation was cancelled) and nothing was available. The man behind the counter tells me there's nothing he can do other than put us on a waiting list for an available lane when it comes available. No intention for any kind of customer service other than to say there was nothing he could do and it wasn't his fault. Oh and we were not the only families greeted with this pleasant news tonight.
