REVIEWS OF Parkside Lanes IN Indiana

Caleb Betczynski

One of my favorite houses to bowl at. All the staff are friendly, and the lanes are well kept. There’s definitely a reason that the PBA loves this bowling center so much!

Lucas Santiago

Expensive food and too crowded

Theresa Munnerlyn

Cleanest bowling alley I've ever seen !

Always my families go to place!!!

Julio Rivera

Went there 2 weeks ago on a Friday. $1.50 a game, and hardly any lanes available. All kinds of kids and families. Figured it would be our Friday night family activity. Went there last night (Friday) and there were PLENTY of lanes. I rolled up to the counter and said 6 games and a pair of shoes. She says 29 dollars!?!?!? When I mentioned the previous Friday she said well not anymore. Because leagues have started. So you have guaranteed money coming in from the leagues, AND you almost quadrupled the price. No wonder there were so many empty lanes. It is very sad that those of us from aurora. Who want to keep our money in our town have to put up with this bait and switch mentality. I will GLADY give my money to funway. Which has better and newer facilities.

John Taylor

Love bowling here

Marvin Wayne Brunson

Nice ally.

Jimmy Uy

Very reasonable price on bowling games!

Tiffanie Hardekopf Ponce

Still a great hang out and great bowling alley.

Jordan Belfort

I know that bowling alley's aren't typically the nicest places in the world, but this place is an absolute dump, in my opinion. The customer service was horrible, the food nasty, the drinks flat and watered down. There are other alley's around that are far nicer then this place- I felt like I needed a shower after I left! Sadly, that's not even the worst part! The General Manager, Kurt, happened to overhear a conversation I was having with a friend about politics and the President. I made comments in support of the President and he proceeded to tell me that I was "anti-American", " a real lefty looney tune" and that my beliefs may be harmful to our Country. Needless to say, we walked right out. Unless you want to spend your hard earned money at an establishment where management thinks your anti-American for making comments in support of the President, and at a place that is a dump to begin with, then this is the place for you!

It is a every good place to go to. If you are looking for a dry backend that is the place to go to

Denlse Behrens

Went for the New Years eve party. Bowl ed had pizza and won Bulls tickets.

David Aguayo Jr.

My friends and I have been there twice before on had a pleasant bowling experience, the place is typically very empty after 10pm.

Robyn

Friendly staff.

Jessica Worby

Like this place a lot

Robin Craft

They had no caulk or the right size ball.

Vijay Thota

Price cannot be beat but the ambience can be a lot better. Other areas could use some renovation too.

Barry Lawler

We had a very good experience oil pattern was a little bit different this time we were here.

Thomas Plaza

Typical bowling center, lanes are ok, service is ok, food is decent and edible, drinks are cold.

ItsNotSmoke ItsVapor

Everything went well with bowling, lanes seemed in good condition. The employees were nice enough to let us finish our last few frames after closing, and were all very nice and helpful. The pizza was the highlight though. I would go there just for their pizza, as I saw a few people doing late on a Sunday night.

Sukkoui

While some parts of the experience are less than satisfactory (the food/drinks mainly) the establishment as a whole actually has a very small town and friendly environment. The staff there are considerate and decent people, the pro shop is serviced by a kind and experienced bowler, not to mention that the alley is home to the great PBA Pro Sean Rash. Occasionally it can get a full, as they have leagues almost every night starting at 6 pm, but if you know the schedules and time your visits accordingly, you will have no trouble getting a lane or two to bowl on. Those who write negative reviews on the place have obviously only tried it once or twice, and have not yet experienced how friendly and fun the alley can be. All in all, 4 out of 5. Not the best, but far from what others think.

Nathaniel Brzozy

I'm a common customer, and have been for many years! I absolutely love the staff and employees! I want to give special appreciation to Dan, Amanda, and Marcia. Very great establishment, with a great atmosphere!

Amanda Blakley

Gigi Barncord

David Van Boekel

Regan Borg

After 9pm Mon-Wed they have $1.50 bowling and shoe rental until 11pm. Always a great place to go for some inexpensive fun!

Neyra Ballesteros

This place serves beer and good appetizers. Has a pool table too.

Gary Harper

Great place, good lanes and well managed and friendly staff. Great food at Tiffany's. Sara will make your food quickly, depending on orders in front of yours, but with love. They got good pizza, and yes there is a bar. Highly recommended..

Jeff Mcdermottsr

Nice place to have fun at night time with friends

Amia May

Great bowling alley for family and friends. Just call ahead of time due to the many bowling leagues taking place on the weekend.

Brandt Bartley

I Like the place.

Philip Thomas

PROS: They have a lot of lanes. The lanes were clean and functioning perfectly. Nice seating area. CONS: No lane service you have to go to the bar for every drink. If you buy a pitcher of beer they will only give you two glasses and every person must show ID every time you get a pitcher of beer. This could be resolved by having them come to the lane.

William Schnautz

Ryan Crumpton

Almost bowled a 300 best customer service

Kenneth Hayes

Halloween

Sumit Singh

Queen Nani

Manny Lo Rocket

Pretty fun but the animations for when you get consecutive strikes are pretty outdated

Valerie Kinley

Staff are (mostly) friendly, and the place usually isn't packed unless you come during tournaments. It's clean and very fun! Prices are okay, too!

anna murguia

Nice bowling alley for family and a date night just call when going into weekends for leagues are there. Open bowling afterwards.

Mae Santi

Lots of lanes, modern, good prices!

Joey Anaya

Nice place

Sandi Q

A really nice bowling alley! Even though we went on a league night, we were able to get a lane after a short wait. Pizza at Tiffany's was really good!

Larry Lewandowski

Good place to bowl and the counter staff was great

Ms. Robin

Horrible! It says online 9pm to 11pm all you can bowl and we get there lady tells me oh sorry "I wish someone would have changed that" in her sarcastic voice...

Elizabeth Coyt

I love this place, familiar environment and affordable prices! You can get good food, drinks and have a great time with friends and family. It is one of the best one!! :) :) :)

Raymond Lafser

Quincy Ivory

Sara Herran

$27 for a bucket of beer. Ouuuuch. Otherwise it was a lot of fun!

Oscar Hernandez Corona

It is a good place to get fun but it is kind of old so it seems that some maintenance is necessary

Jane Sickler

My daughter took me bowling for my birthday...my granddaughters who are 9&10 went as well...we paid almost $45.00 for the 4 of us to play...we were having a nice time until our lane kept messing up...we called for service several times and the guy at the counter answered but no one came to help...so after 10 minutes I went up to the counter to ask for help for the second time...the guy who was supposed to help us slowly sauntered over to our lane to fix the problem with the lane. We had several situations with the lane and partway through the next game the lane just shut down. I became disgusted at that point and asked a worker if we could get a partial refund because of all the problems...we were given tickets for a future visit for 8 free games...I appreciate the gesture and effort to right the wrong but the workers there seemed to care less about the customer...very disappointing watching these guys lazily walking around while we sat and waited for help time and time again...maybe they bring in enough money to the point of customer service not being their number one priority...so sad...Parkside was the " Happening,bustling place" back in the day... who knows now???

Rich Moores

The nicest BOWLING CENTER In the state well run & promotes a WONDERFUL experience !!!

Stephanie

Nice community. League worthy lanes. Much better to bowl here vs some chain bowling just for fun place. You can recognize the difference in lane quality. Prices are very reasonable. Could use some upgrades for sure as it’s aged a bit.

Dan Della Terza

Standard bowling alley. Nothing of note to really mention. It's an older place, little run down, but decent if you're looking for bowling in the area.

Helen Wohlfeil

Abbas Rah

Its our weekend play ground

Rick Demski

Love this bowling alley! Everyone is very friendly and attentive. Nice lanes too!

Gayle Brussow

Great family fun

Weshwego

Kinda bad food imo but I mean you can bowl and play pool at least

Jonothan Kufeldt

Good lanes and clean place but if you want to bowl for fun, good luck getting a lane. We get turned down nearly every time we visit. As my wife and I are too busy during the daytime in the week. If you don't book a birthday party or you are part of a league they don't care about your business.

Lc Buford

Had a great night!!!

Patricia Genovese

Very nice staff always freindly, yhe gaming machines are very tight

Susan Chicano

Very courteous staff and excellent customer service.

Sam Effron

Bowled here since I was a little kid, could use some updating but I love this place. Lots of lanes.

Nice place. Didn't bowl our last game and they even gave us a coupon type thing to get another free game later!

Javier Varela

Peter Ryan

Love going here with the family when we're in town. Always seems family friendly

Roz Sillitti

Tiffany Tyler

Mike McWhirter

Brian O'Toole

Called ahead, and was told they would be open until 5 PM Christmas Eve, showed up at 2:15 with family from out of town, and was told they're closing at 2:30. The man at the counter was unbelievably rude and temperamental. You've lost my business, thanks for nothing.

What an awesome place to go bowling at!! I absolutely loved it

Roger Spurgin

Bring your game to pro level lanes!

kaitcbraun

A little expensive as far as standard bowling alleys go (ie not big Brunswicks), still, it's clean, the TVs aren't huge or obtrusive like they're tending to get elsewhere, and the food is decent. Overall your standard bowling experience, nothing to write home about but no complaints either.

Jeffrey Titus

Super clean and nice

Andrew Owings

Ken Hagenbaumer

Parkside is a bowling establishment and as such you will find competitive leagues, pro shop ran by people who know what works, and a very good family environment.

Trey Eichamer

Great pizza

Chris K

Decent bowling alley.

Patty Calhoun

Fun family night!

Emacula Pringle

I have been to this bowling alley a couple of times. The people are nice but they never have any lanes for regular customers on Saturday's. There is a bowling league that take up all the lanes until 9pm. This is the biggest day of the week for family's. I work Monday Thur Friday and I try to spend quality time with my family on the weekends. I personally will never return to this place. I will just relocated my family to Brunswick Zone on the weekends.

sales man

Only been there a couple of times... I will go back. It's a good bowling alley, staff at the counter and the Bar we plesent and nice to talk to, Everything was fairly clean , and in good condition. Bar prices are reasonable / average. Haven't tried the restaurant, but it did smell and look appetizing. Lanes are wood and in fair / good condition. Haven't figured out there oil pattern completely, I'll have to update my review when I do. Will return/recommend
