Starlite Lanes

Be prepared for a super cute little one to check you in and give you the what's what! Literally the sweet, most characteristic little gal ever. She's the owner's daughter and actually helped us out while not one adult was present. Some locals shewed us out of where she sat us, for us later to be sat back down in our original place. (the local league members apologized). My advice here would be to wait at the desk for the actual owner, I can't tell you how long this will take as he did not appear for about 25 minutes after we arrived. Or else you will be move aside by Possessive local league members. Hey, I get it. I'm a native Oregonian whose been priced out by Californians and City folks alike. I can't even move back to my hometown because I married an active duty military man 20 years ago. If anyone gets it, I do! However, this experience was Bizarre, our food from the cafe next door was almost $100 and our son was gagging on it, unable to eat it. It was awful. Eat before you bowl, do not eat at the cafe next door. To top it all off this bowling alley uses the same equipment from the 1980's. Do not be prepared for any fun digital effects on computer screens here. Just the chunky block letters with your name, yep... 1980's equipment! The real surprised will hit you when you leave and you're charged over $50 for a few games in this low budget, long wait, zero service atmosphere. ‍ be prepared folks! They'll hit ya like your in San Diego! With all of this said, I was visiting my most wonderful sister in law who's in college. Her presence simply made this night and awesome experience, but I cannot in good conscience let this guy rip people off pre what is provided.

I've bowled at different bowling centers and this one is one of my favorites. They currently still have wooden lanes (which personally I prefer), their A2 pinsetters are a little more reliable than other centers with the same pinsetters, and the scorers (while older) seem to have fewer accuracy errors than some other centers with newer equipment. I've been to some bowling centers where respots and ball returns seemed constant, but this center is not so much of an issue. I do appreciate this center being locally-owned and not of a large corporate ran business.
