  We came here a few times before and it was great. The most recent time we were met at the front by a young lady who had the personality of a wet napkin. She gave us the impression that they didn’t value our business and we were an inconvenience to her as she handed us our shoes and sent us on our way. After our 2 games, and great service from our waitress, we were told they were at capacity and we would have to get back in line. This is totally understandable so we sat at the bar at approx 11:45pm to wait for our lane. After watching multiple lanes open up we became frustrated but kept waiting. At 1pm we decided to call it quits. When returning our buzzer and shoes we asked why all these lanes were open and we couldn’t play. She then told us it was 1pm and they don’t seat us at 1pm. We then asked to speak to a manager and she laughed and walked away. After waiting for the manager for 15 plus minutes I decided to write this review so I can make it home at a decent hour. Whoever decided to hire this woman needs to reevaluate their business strategy and place more emphasis on valuing their customers that keep their lights on and bills paid.

  Whenever I want to go bowling this is always my first choice. I love the atmosphere. The only thing I can say that would be a conflict is the parking. This place had a small lot but everything else is outstanding. Food is always good, plenty of lanes to play, great customer service and a very diverse crowd. Not to mention I can never complain about the drinks.

  The lanes are very clean and the music is good. The food could use some flavor and the fountain drinks are flat. They bought all our food out with no utensils. If you plan to come with a large group be aware of the petty rules. Overall, it's OK.

  In general, the place is great, good atmosphere, nice bartenders and management although front desk needs to work on their attitude towards customers(and that’s not the first time we were at north bowl). We were told that waiting time is an hour and a half which we were okay with however Attempting to get any more words from them was near the miracle, very rude and unprofessional. Please be more patient with the customers as well respectful towards them, thank you.

  Such a neat place! This retro feeling bowling alley has a great bar, delicious food, and bowling! Unlike many bowling alleys, this one didn't feel dirty and dingy...it felt clean and hip (yeah..im talking about a bowling alley). The bowling alley itself (the game and shoe purchasing) is cash only but luckily there is an ATM in the building (save the fee and bring money with you). The food and bar is cash or credit!
