REVIEWS OF Bowling World IN Arkansas

Mitchell Dunlap

Go a couple times throughout the month and enjoy a game or two with my buddies and a pitcher of beer. People at the front are decent. The older lady at the bar during the week can be mean sometimes. The lady on the weekend is nicer. Snack bar prices are high and the service is hit or miss. But it’s always a good time no matter what.

Mikel Sherwood

Always have a fun time when I go here but the prices are a bit high.

TAMRA KAY CULP

Kool laid back place to have a few drinks and bowl a strike!!

Billy Coleman

Love it. Big open and a tons of lanes. Games , food and drinks. Friendly electronic scoring system. Great party place for groups and organizations .

Nycen Harrold

Fun good food fun place to play pool and arcade games

Rebecca Orellana

Good place! Needs smaller balls for weak women lol!

Jason Dunn

The place is easy to find and get to, some of the people that work there are not real friendly. It's clean, but if you use the bathroom make sure you wear something on your shoes.

David Olsen

Nice easy place to go bowling. Exactly what you'd expect really.

Satina Dooley

Lots of lanes (72) but my hands were totally black when we finished bowling 2 games. Snack bar is so slow on good. They should have it down since menu has not changed in years

Samantha Glasener

Was fun but the guy was really rude.

Belinda Adams

Great place to host a birthday party ages 6 & up

MARCO DOMINGUEZ

Had excellent time with my kids. Will definitely be back

Tania Mcgill

Best place to bowl in the metro area.

Natasha Guel

Expensive, they have a few good specials but if you go at any other time it's a lot. Pretty basic for a bowling alley. Only cool thing was if you have a younger kid playing, they can set it up where when ever they play bumpers will come up. Everyone else can bowl regular which I thought was pretty neat.

Jon Esperanza

A bowling alley, a bit above average as far as quality goes but it's also where I'm sure all NASCAR fans go when there isn't a race going on at the time.

Gerald Melton

I have bowled here for years and love it.

Addrian Chill

Can be a little crowded. The staff is ok but not super friendly.

Charles Highsmith

A little pricey, good family fun.

C Tretcher

HORRIBLE! Will never be back. Customer service was awful! The guy's at the food/bar station were TERRIBLE! I'll take my business elsewhere rather than putting up with a bunch of smart a$$ punks. Too many stupid rules! I cant have a light weight ball even though i have a weak wrist?? NO THANK YOU!

T.J. Whitmire

If you bring your own shoes it can be mega cheap

Kay Fin

I bowled a 300 there one time but the machine said it was only 190. My friends said my score was 190 too. Goes to show Bowling World nor my friends know what they are talking about.

Dillon Syrock

This place was disgusting. And it was overpriced. The pizza was nasty and the men's restroom was in deplorable condition. I'll never go back I don't care who's birthday party it is.

Sue Nardone

Great place, a bit hot but fun

Cherie Kelley

My kids love this place. Great fried pickles too!

Connie Simmons

Lots of friendly people

Richard Lewis

Fun place to be great customer service and good food

Donal Westbrook

This is a great place to bring your whole family and enjoy a nice competition. Lanes are perfectly oiled. Food is hot and drinks are cold.

Scott M

They need to oil their lanes better

Marian L. Taylor

They are very helpful if the lane has a problem or your ball gets stuck.

Jamie Fox

We had a pretty good time, need more bowling balls and better selection

Mike Jones

Decent, starting to seem old. Good for a birthday party

Samson Lawrence

Smelled of balls!!

Brian Pritchard

We went on a Sunday had a great time. They had a special $33 for an hour and a half of bowling for two people including shoes and a pizza. We were able to get four games in an hour and a half. Great savings compared to $18 for 2 peole per game at normal prices.

Jay Dye

It is a fun place to bowl. Love it.

Wayne Werner

It's a pretty good bowling alley. Like every one I've been to it seems like it hasn't seen a fresh coat of paint since construction... And it could do with a good vacuum. But the lanes were fine, which was why we went.

Blargen Flargen

Pool, bowling, arcade. Kinda self explanatory.

Chad Morrow

Nice family atmosphere friendly service good food cold beverages

Yezenia Delarosa

The ladies at the concession stand and bar are as rude as they can be. Getting just a simple fountain drink for your kids seems like you’re ordering the hardest thing on their menu. They don’t care about customer service at all, and they act like they’re slaves to the establishment. They definitely need to check who they have behind those stands because the two ladies they have now act like they have the worst job in the world. Do not recommend to go here!!(negative) —5 stars

Nayeli Collier

Went for my daughters birthday party. We had a good time, but wasn't happy about some of their rules... like no bumpers unless tour under a certain age. If someone wants bumpers then give them bumpers. Some people bowl once a year, or rarely and getting straight gutter balls isn't so much fun! We also had a hard time finding balls light enough for some of our players as again some are kids under 8 only. We did have fun in the arcade, although one machine stole tokens, and honestly the prizes are junk you don't want to take home. A free drink, game, more tokens, etc would be much better prizes. My only other complaint would be consessions... the pizza tastes like burnt cheese on cardboard. It's horrid. Aldi pizzas are $4, totonis are under $2. Buy and resell those! Not discouraging people from coming here IF you have no limitations and eat before hand. If you have players who may need a light ball or bumpers who are over 8 though, don't come. They refused our family...

Julie McElroy

So much fun! The staff are amazing! Especially Roxane!!!

Brittney Jones

Love this place

Tracy Turner

A little pricey but great place too hangout.

Kathryn Miller

Fun times

Brad Belt

Had a great time and fun with my family

Cheese T

Machines got stuck quite a bit. But the staff made up for it.

Derek Jakobitz

Wonderful.

Cassie Dolphay-Jones

Great for family bowl night

steven pope

Just needs some repairs on the lanes.. Out of date software on the kiosk maybe needs new ones.. Located around the back of a car dealership.. Kinda hard to find without GPS. Not really that exciting..

Jack Andrew

Great time with friends and family. Clean and has nice smooth lanes

Bradley's Cave Of Games

A fun place to bowl

Javier Rodriguez

We went as a group of 7 for a work meeting & to bowl 2 games. As we waited for everyone to arrive, we noticed that the gentleman in charge of the shoes & taking money was being very nice to a group of younger girls who got there before our group did. Joked around with them & everything. However, when our group was up next, he didn't even acknowledge us. Maybe we weren't as appealing, I'm not sure. Then when we wanted to get pizza, a young lady said they don't serve pizza on Tuesdays which is when we went. We confirmed with the owner Randy a couple days before that we would be there & that there would be food available for us. Pizza runs cheaper for bigger groups. Perhaps he forgot, but the young lady didn't care either. I don't recommend this place. Sad that it's the only decent bowling place around, because if it were a heavily populated area, I guarantee this place would go bankrupt. Don't go here to have a good time, it's not worth your hard-earned money. Bad customer service. Will not be going here again.

Lanny Johnson

Lots of fun and good food

Maurine MOYLE

Overall very good. Lanes should be oiled more often.

Daniel Webb

It's a bit dated but the prices are comparable to other fun activities in town.

Jessica Lewis

Had our work Christmas party there and it was great!

Nikki Watkins

We are here today. And our kids are enjoying it so much. Good music station they chose and great atmosphere.

Ashley Davis

I'm not even good at bowling but I love to go here & have fun!

stacy proffitt

My family of 10 went to Bowling World tonight and had a Wonderful time. The only thing I wish is they had 10lb bowls with larger finger wholes. We plan on going back very soon.

Cathy Nesbit

Bowling is great. The cheeseburgers are fantastic!! Oh, and chili cheese fries top notch.

Jody Ruloph

Great place to have family time

The Review Kid

Good bowling alley.

Christina Harp

The a.c. doesn't work well

Kevin Cudmore

This place is way to expensive the owners must think they are in California or something, they wanted 40$ for two people to bowl! They acted like they didn't even want my business. I'll attempt to bowl there again!

Kathy Steel

Had a great time. Senior appreciation day was fun.

Marlie LaFerr

First time there and it was so much fun! Everyone was so nice ND it was very entertaining!

Evan Haley

Great place to have a good experience bowling

Tinkerbell 3231993

It's not fair that y'all charged us 60 for 4 on Friday when Sunday was 36 it should be alittle cheaper y'all should some kinda special on Fridays like pizza and pin for 40

amanda robison

We love shooting pool here! Staff are very friendly!

Had a blast great place for the family.

Angela Militello

Fun time between bowling, pool, and the arcade. Food's good too.

Dennis Peters

Awesome experience enjoyed it

harold hood

Friendly folks and nice lanes. Good snack bar.

Amanda Jones

It was our first time here and we had a blast!

Stephanie George

I had the exact same experience as a previous reviewer... they wouldn't budge and let my elderly mom have a light weight ball. After asking for an exception to the "8 and under only" rule, I received the very professional reply "well, we have 95 year olds on bowling leagues." Fun place but mom had to use a ramp to be able to bowl.

joe couthren

A nice country atmosphere a kickback Place good bowling got everything you need including good Arkansas people

Darren Beavers

Good times

Kimberly Boudreau

Prices for bowling are great!!!! Snack bar prices on the other hand....they must sprinkle gold flakes in and on everything. Nobody should have to pay almost 3 dollars for a 32 oz fountain drink soda. NOBODY. That's ridiculous and may be the reason we don't return. Folks....you get thirsty when you bowl, it's strenuous activity. Lower your snack bar pricing.

Mr.C Monkey

This is a good place to bowl for either your own entertainment, or for a competition.

Destanee Nichols

Had a fun time.

Rice Robert

My family and I love going here, great times, employees, and you could ask for better prices.

Jeremy Tipton

Good place to take the family

Tyler Herrin

Good clean, cheap, friendly fun. Not very well ventilated but still worth the time spent.

Gordon St Onge

Nice facility, good time

amy broadway

Great bowling alley with arcade area and plenty of pool tables

Trisha Whisnant

Nice pool tables

Frankie Partello

Too cool for school

shannon hubler

I have loved this place since highschool in 1993. Great bowling and memories.

Cameron

This place stinks. Rude employees, broken down lanes. Half of our time was wasted on them trying to get our lane unstuck. Happened on several occasions.

Brittany Stroman

We had a blast. The staff was friendly the place was pretty clean and the cheese pizza is pretty darn good. It a great place to have fun with your family.

Zach Boley

Hasn't changed even since I was a kid it seems

Raven Davis

I used to really like this place, I went today and the staff was very rude. Threw our shoes at us and when we informed them one of the arcade machines were broken they threw our coins at us and barely acknowledged us. The bowling was fine but the attitude of the workers left a bad taste in my mouth.

Ken Zeiger

Great place to bring the family. Bowled a 203!

Shannon Broyles

I had a good time here

Betty Ritter

Very nice people

richard dragoo

Floors had too much wax but everything else was great floors were too slippery and the staff was very friendly

fitzroy tutein

Had fun there. Lane keep sticking, to which they had to move us to another lane. Could use some updating.

garrett stobaugh

We went to this establishment expecting a fun day of games. We requested bumpers to be put on due to two of our players never had played before. We were informed that there was a strict 8 and under rule. If we are going to pay $40+ to play a game, we should be able to play with bumpers and have a fun time like everyone else. I asked to speak to the owner, and was informed that I couldn't talk to the owner and there wasn't anything they could do because they weren't going to contact the owner for my complaint.

Treasure Smith

they were great especially with my toddler

Justin Nave

Good family entertainment. Not expensive. Good confessions.

Duke Arnold

bowled a 124 last time!

Desiree sherwood

this place is not that bad if you don't mind to pay a lot of money to throw balls in a run down building. the workers are rude and inconsiderate. my friends and I went and it took us 30 minutes for them to fix our lane before we even started. I paid FOUR dollars for funnel cake fries and received very little powdered sugar with a total of EIGHT fries. i literally paid 50 cents a fry. this place is a joke

Stephanie Scott

I had a really great time. The only thing is the people seemed upset and weren't very friendly but they may have had a long day or something. Overall great place for bowling and/or pool.

Amos Skidmore

Regular specials, environment caters to a wide range of age groups and families. Overall clean facility with friendly staff.

Rob Nugent

Good lanes, clean, but a bit pricey.

Leland Blodgett

After a few lane issues, They took care of us by extending our bowling time. All the people were very nice.

Arielle Richesin

Not enough staff to help when balls got stuck..then when we found someone, he had to go up to desk to find someone else. The lady in the kitchen was a little bit rude when we ordered.

kimberly west

Went with a group of 15 . Service was ok. Lanes we're good. Bar service was horrible.

Christopher Peacock

Every time we go we have great experience.

Benny Graham

Way too expensive!!!!

Melanie Logsdon

We have attended a large group event here for a few years. The pizza is ok, but there is a snack bar that provides other options if pizza isn't your thing. They make it very easy to get soda and refills by keeping pitchers accessible. Roxanne is really great to work with and has always worked with our group to make it an enjoyable event!

ed smith

Great pro shop, tons of lanes, clean, very up to date

Twila Knight

This place was really fun for the whole family.

Katie Sharum

Great place for families. It's very clean even the restrooms. Family friendly!

Anna Sallee

Nice for birthday parties; good food always.

Penny Roberts

Fun

Huy Vũ

Good service, food is slow though. Pretty nice lanes

Dana Vance

Not bad. Lane 2 keypad is not fully functional. Cant use the letters A or U.

James

All was good with the desk and the lanes. But they should have a couple of more people at the concession stand. Had to wait for 15 minutes for the line to go down. Other than that it was a fun time

Larry Harvey

Good food and Friendly service. Alot of fun for all your family and friends. They have plenty of lanes and billiards tables. They also have a fun arcade room.

John Chance

Bowling was fun and all but they won’t let you put up rails for anyone under 8 years old and my 11 year old brother is a beginner so he couldn’t have as much fun and the price we paid for 2 games was way too much

Rachel Byers

The pizza and beer are good. I wish there was music playing. The staff was okay. The facility is clean.

Jose Cruz

Great atmosphere and family place!

Vincent Clark

Nice people the lanes were good bowling balls good and we had fun with blue moon

nicki ludlow

As I entered the doors I was instantly brought back to my childhood excitement. The noise of the bowling balls, the announcements over the intercoms, kids and adults laughing and enjoying them selves and the smell of pizza and nachos. Happy, fun place. I will definately go back and bring my daughter and grandbabies!

Dennis Holland

Specials are definitely a better price than straight rates, bowling, arcade and pool tables!

Amy Prescott

The last few times my family went there we had issues with our ball getting stuck or the pins getting stuck and anytime we called for help they would act like it was a bother for them to help us. This happened several times.

Jimmy Bryant

Had a fun time with the family . The staff was bery polite and helpful.

PrimaSylvie

Good service, fun game, bathrooms were gross.

Lisa Joseph

Had a lot of fun, but it seemed to me that it's too expensive. Worth going again, but can't afford to put it in the entertainment rotation too often.

Steven Nason

Went during I guess league day/ night!! Couldn't play!! They should always have a few lanes open for public etc. Kids was very disappointed

Paden Harper

Shoes make it hard to stand. Crazy slick. Pro shop won’t open because the guy who works there apparently just bowls all day and won’t help customers. Won’t put up the bumpers for my 10yo 45 pound daughter. Ridiculously expensive and the few staff I’ve talked to seem either incompetent or unwilling to help at all

Lynda Post

Love going here with the fam!

Casey M. Ritter

Awesome fun place

jongallin2323 Jon G

employees are not friendly. really over priced bowling

Wildboy5699

I don't mind this place to much. The bowling is fun, the prices are a little too high, they have deals everyday but Fridays, but that is not saying much. Some of the workers are nice, other's acted like they have the worst job ever and wanted to die. Especially the old lady at the concession. I ask for a pizza, but told me that they don't serve pizza until 6:00 every night, which is a dumb rule. Other than that, not the best place in the fort to hang out, but no one as the worst.

Brittany Pogue

Everything was good except for 1 employee. But still worth a 4 star.

Denise Jernigan

I am here with my children and have spent a significant amount of money while the staff is deplorable. Will never return.

Ashley Goss

The lady at the refreshments counter was very rude! Rolled her eyes last Saturday around 11pm. She didn't want to be there and didn't like her job and made that very clear to all in line. With workers like this, I won't be coming back

Kevin Heavin

Had a nice family Saturday afternoon special.

Jamie Gough

It would be great if they played the music louder. We had a good time.

Jimmy Amos

Ok

Mariya tice

Hope nothing happens to your child while you are there. They are rude. A 2 year old child got her hand stuck in the ball return and they would not turn off the machine. They were more concerned about their equipment than a child.

Elizabeth Cunningham

Nice

sdware attnet

It was alright. C I uld of had different music. It was pricey I would have rather went to Midland bowl it is cheaper for the same entertainment and food.

bobby chanthavong

Great place for family fun

Patricia Simmons

Enjoyed bowling and pool. The pool tables green is pretty worn and could not find hand chalk. Had trouble finding a ball for bowling so was unable to really play. The closest ball I could find that would work hung on my thumb every time I released the ball which made for a not so great game. The people were helpful and I enjoyed myself greatly. Went on a Friday night. I was busy but no where near as busy as I expected. We were able to get a lane immediately and then a pool table. No wait.

Ashley Christopher

We had a great time and the prices for the game and shoe rental were reasonable

Andy Messenger

Pool was cool. Nachos subpar. Didn't bowl. Everyone was nice

Jenny Jones

Had a good time

jamilee mcdaniel

Good night time bowl

Heather Deboer

Awful customer service. Wanted to bowl with the family and ended up walking out. Approached the front desk and looked over their pricing sign on the counter which clearly stated that it was 4.10 per person per game on holidays and weekends. The employee behind the counter "Brooklyn" asked how many people were going to bowl and I told her five. She then told us it was $9 per person for one game or $13 per person for two games. At that point I turned their sign around for her to see showing her the $4.10 price. She got an attitude and said that she didn't know why it said that but it wasn't right. So I pointed to the other identical signs on the counter. She again was rude and said it was wrong. By this time I had enough of the disrespectful manner in which she was talking to me in front of my family and everyone around so we walked out. I even sent an email to the manager email listed on their website and have heard nothing! I will never go back.

Mnica Eell

It's cool.

Nick Chin

Pretty fun place. I wish there was a wider selection of balls, but overall I was satisfied
