Reviews of Cardinal Lanes Beach Bowl (Bowling Alley)

Mark Hines

The floors are slippery be careful!

amy bradley

Went to bowl with three kids ages six,four, and two using the kids bowling coupons. We asked for two lanes because of the kids attention span. We were then told that we could only have one because we could all fit. We tried to bowl but only got through 2 frames and had to leave. We still had to play 9$. There were well over half the lanes empty.two lanes would have taken us about twenty min to bowl a game.We were given attitude when we asked at all.if you are going to advertise kid friendly bowling you need to be kid friendly.

Ryan Mohr

Have had my daughter's birthday party here two years in a row. Great place with friendly staff.

Kersten Cardwell

Very fun for cold days at the BEACH!!! Super friendly staff and reasonably priced!!

Mitchell Dial

Best place to take your woman. We love it there. Family friendly.

Jessica Matthews

It's bowling. Either you suck, don't quite suck, or you're a prodigy. Funny enough I think Wii sports helps one to be a better bowler. Also you're at the beach, so there's that.

Carmen Mayes

Fun

Angel Mabee

Ok place. Service is poor most of the time - the employees don't seem happy.

Leslie Stilley

I love this place. I've been coming here since I was a kid. All new lanes and fun arcade games for kids. Great place for birthdays as well.

Gevonnie Bullock

I like the atmosphere, this place is really dedicated to the bowling experience.

Kristin Boyd

We had a great experience at this bowling alley. The staff is very accommodating and eager to help in any way. There are nice arcade games for kids and the place is very clean. They have great food too.

Britt Rudd

Typical bowling alley with dirty bathrooms.

Bryce Honeycutt

Service was awful!!! The man behind the desk told us to wait till after bowling to pay, we payed this no mind and continued on to our lane. After bowling we went to pay, and the man behind the desk said”Next time tell me before you bowl.”!!! We did tell you before! Would never go back again!

Gela Nixon

Great fun

Chance Fletcher

Older run down bowling alley compared to some of the newer ones. If you're in the area and would like to bowl, it provides you with a nice bowling experience.

Jessica M

Great bowling specials. Nice older bowling alley.

Victor Crews

Always good family fun.

Eric Batchler

Family friendly and good prices. We always do our team party here. Maybe not as modern as some places but comfortable for my family.

Wordstrizz Poet

I enjoyed the atmosphere and there was no wait time to bowl. I also like that there was a deal in place for 6 people for 2 hours at 30.00

J Chambers

Like the atmosphere and fun bowling software.

b Drunk

Bowling, yep that's about it, i dont think i have ever been to a bowling alley that is nice and clean and updated, so seems to be just like every bowling alley.

Dharma Leggat

Fun, friendly and well equipped! Had a great time, excellent snack bar as well.

Amanda Sellers

Old wooden lanes but playable!

Leon Ortiz

Good

R. Mooney

Nice staff, friendly air, good lighting and all

Matthew Brubeck

I love the lanes here. Friendly staff, reasonable prices. My favorite place in Wilmington to bowl

MJ Lovins

Womens bathroom badly needs an automatic deodorizer. People with their kids up on the landing in groves, dancing, moving around this contraption they had, right next to you TRYING to bowl. Ball always stuck, doesn't return and you have to go bother the staff for help. The staff was nice and gave us a new lane for our second game. Parents please read up on bowling rules and etiquette.

Army Psych

Machines are on the older side and set up makes it difficult to have a drink comfortably while bowling. Crowd is ok- several families and couples on a Saturday night. Staff is always accommodating.

April Embry

This place is awesome, bowl here every Sunday and it's great love the people so friendly

Patrick Lewis

Pretty good

Jacob Rusgrove

Great food and good family fun!

Maureen Ruongrat

Shirley Irvin

Small but nice

Chris Cruz

Really fun with friends, needs more food choices

Fun place to bowl leagues. Check out their open bowling specials too. Best bang for your buck is Beach Bowl.

Jonathan Rhyne

Took a large group of Cub Scouts there to bowl and the staff was extremely helpful. Very attentive. Got a good deal on the bowling and everyone had a blast!

Rina Maxwell

They have a two hour special on Sundays between 12-4 pm. It's $5.00 per person. It's a nice place to bowl.

David Libson

Nice place, friendly staff. Good lanes. Needs more food choices and it would be great!!

Kori Alvarado

Friendly staff. Good food for a bowling alley. They need new shoes

Raven Mesimer

This bowling allry was amazing and so fun to play and be competitive with the family, great snacks and drinks and great service!

Cris Mills

Great atmosphere, and the staff was great. We bowled 5 games, and never had 1 issue with the lane or scoring.

Nate Haynes

Repave the parking lot, paint the building and this place would be packed daily. Friendly attitudes and fun place.

Thanos Kermit

A bit smaller than expected. Has decent food and service. Also includes a small arcade in the back.

Crystal Williams

They have great deals on games.. lanes were not crowded

Carol Camburn

I love going here! The employees are always so nice and helpful, food is great and the prices are right!!!!!

James Evans

OUTSTANDING: CLEAN, PROFESSIONAL, FRIENDLY! I bought a ball from the pro-shop, something I have never done. I was guided through the entire process and was made to feel comfortable the entire time. I was not pressured to buy something I didn't need. After receiving my ball, I bowled a couple games and beat my highest score EVER!!!! I was so excited I left without paying. I called back and was again met with the utmost courtesy from DC the manager, we came to an understanding and I ensured him I would be back. Top Notch all around. There are 3 bowling alleys closer to my house than this one, but I will be traveling a little further because of the welcome experience I received here.

Todo lo malo El jj

Super Playa vibes! Love the acai bowls! Cool service! Brand new place! Check it out!

Angela Page

Had my grandsons birthday party there. Very polite staff and very happy to help out. I'll do it again with my other grandkids.

Sarah Ashmore

Its great if you’re trying to bowl on a budget (like me), but if you’re looking for a nice bowling alley, look elsewhere. It’s not very well kept. It’s definitely an older building and the equipment messes up fairly frequently–it would get jammed and we would have to go get one of the staff to go around back to get it working again. Otherwise no complaints!

Brandon Kutil

Great prices and great staff. Extremely friendly, great place to take the family

alex mckinney

Great love it

Kathy Bledsoe

Good family fun.

Jonathan Cruz

Good but looks cheap

Sheree Jackson

The first time we went here we enjoyed ourselves. The second and third times was awful. The staff wasn’t nice at all. They all had attitudes and didn’t seem to want to help us. Also there was an incident where a guy was acting out and throwing trash cans and bottles went everywhere. And they didn’t seem to care. Not a good atmosphere for kids to be in. Will NEVER go back here. I will definitely drive further to take the kids to be in. They don’t deserve any stars. The incident happened around 2 pm

Halee Gieger

So much fun.. good music

nessaanne1993

Fun night!

ToniAnn White

I am pretty confused about all the bad reviews on this bowling alley because my husband and I just left there and I must say we are impressed. We are a bowling family and have bowled at many places and I must say this is in our top 5 places! We drove an hour to check it out and it was so worth it. The staff was friendly, the lanes were oiled and clean! Ethan was especially nice! We will definitely be back!!

bob sampogna

Average lanes

Jessica Thornton

Nice place with a family friendly atmosphere.

Katrina Massey

Great place to take the grandkids. They have a promotion until school starts. Kids can bowl 2 games free everyday until school starts just pay for shoe rental.

Jaime Abbott

Great people. Went somewhere else 1st but they wouldn't let all of bowl because of a boot (on a broken foot) but beach did. Thank you for working with us. Had a great time!

Shane Dahlem

Good folks and decent rates

James Panagakis

Good service

mary porter

Had a blast not bad on pricing

Dennis Layman

Great for a little family outing. Bring the kids. Bring a date. Family friendly. All you have to do is input your names on the screen and just bowl. They serve beer and soft drinks. Some food to choose from. Pizza was good.

Christian Hufton

The place was nasty. The floors are way to slick. Bad house ball and the worst staff. Not worth the money

Cynthia Johnson

Always a good time.

Coffee Guru

Not impressed, the staff are grumpy and service wasn't that great by any means. There was food, plates napkins, nacho cheese all over tables. Nobody took initiative to even try to pick up. Takes 25 minutes for fries to come out. Bowling always fun..but run like a hole in wall. Fyi to the staff, it's the kids that matter not checking out chicks and selling beer. Can't say I would go back honestly.

Alice Pleasants

Great family atmosphere and we were kinda noisy but free to be ourselves. It was fun, fun, FUN!!!

Laura Cardona

They are always really friendly and well priced!!

Michael Erickson

This place has a great staff and is honestly just some honest bowling. I highly recommend this place over the other bowling alley in town, as it's cheaper and has a much better atmosphere in and around the building.

Ashley Porter

Needs to be renovated. Looks like a complete hole in the wall on the outside. But it was a great experience! The staff was very friendly. Give it a try. I will definitely go back.

vic wilson

My kids love this place

SilentChoir

It was cool, I guess

Linda Anthis

Really friendly employees and great Bowling specials just couldn't pass it up. Loved it

Låtin Ångel

(Wood lanes) Fantastic family fun. Great service and a fully stocked snack bar. They also have a fully stocked Pro-shop owned & run by PBA pro Chris Acaro. Great prices on ball, bag & shoes combos as well as balls custom drilled just for you. Stop by for a bit of fun or to get set up with your own gear. They have it all.

Dock Pearsall

Great fun

Stayc Gates

Great time here with family, and surprisingly there pizza was delicious, fun family friendly place. We enjoyed it. Nice staff.

Ingrid Phillips

The staff is very personable and I can vape in there! You used to be able to vape everywhere in public, but for some inexplicable reason, most places won't allow that anymore!

Daniel Pepper

Hosted my son's birthday party here. Reasonably priced, service was great and everyone had a good time.

Mac's Motovlog

It wasn't the worst bowling place I have been too but it was pretty dang bad. They had no bowling balls that would fit my fingers or my friends. I'm only 185 pounds 5,11 so I don't have fat hands. I even asked the manager if they had any with bigger holes and he literally chuckled and shrugged his shoulders. They didn't turn on the music ( not that important it was just dead silent because there were 2 people bowling, me and my friend) and the workers just hung out at the counter and watched us the whole time while talking. They eventually turned the music on when some other guy came in ( looked all fancy with his own bowling ball and stuff) and that kinda ticked me off like we weren't worthy of music but he was. I left feeling sad, the whole atmosphere was just dull. Prices were dirt cheap but even with that they had 3 people there and about 8 workers. Owner is losing money big time, also the equipment was outdated but fully functional.

Kourtnie Souders

Outdated but cheap and staff was helpful and friendly.

Trav Dickinson

Fun place to bowl prices are descent and the place is clean

Sarah Davis

We love it here!

Tiffany Johnson

Small but clean, variety of ball sizes, lanes were nice and flat, restrooms were clean. The staff was a little rude, I'm hoping someone was just having a bad day and it will be better next time.

gary nolt

Clean and friendly

Chris Borden

Fantastic facility, lanes were great, staff was friendly, and my beer was cold!

Amber Sneeden

Okay place. Food not that good.

Slam 420

Great people and the racks are fast because the maintenance tech has been there for 23 years. Great food. The pro shop is ran by Chris awesome instructor. Thanks guys and girls for a great experience

Kris Tutela

Great place, bowling prices are unbeatable. Food prices and drinks are definitely a bit pricey.

Rdub Walton

Good place to bowl ...

Cara Bailey

Fun place to go bowling for a cheap price. My friends and I had fun and didn't have to worry about the price. It is a little dated inside, but it's good place to hang out with friends and bowl.

Matt Ratliff

Great place! Staff is very friendly, unlike several other places in Wilmington. Great food and open lanes.

Micheal Mills

Great staff and fun place to Bowl and reasonably priced also

Helena m Gilchrist

Thank you let's go cowboys: had a great time at your place with my family I am from Florida. I will recommend this place two other people thanks again

Jasmine Pearce

My family and I all had problems with the area before the lane...we were slipping and slidding all over the place trying to bowl. I actually injured myself and had to stop playing after only 2 turns...the lead guy didnt really help the situation and wasnt interested in the troubles we were having. Bathrooms were not clean.

b Conrad

Great Place! We had a great time.

Kristen Burch

We love the fun friendly atmosphere. The kids love bowling and the staff here is super helpful and kind. They definitely make your experience fun and hassle free. The food at the concession stand actually really good. The burgers and hotdogs are better than some restaurants.

Maureen Costa

Family atmosphere. Always a fun time. Great staff

Alexander Scharfetter

Clean family friendly place. I would def bowl there again.

Lala 05bby

My kids had a great time! Great service. Will be returning. Thank you!

Andrew Roberto

Great service , clean and well maintained.

Daniel Uribe

Great staff!

Jordana Chadwick

Meh

Jimmie Sue Owensby

We had a lot of fun

Jakim Friant

Enjoyed our time here. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Brett Carpenter

Very generic bowling alley. If you're looking for a simple bowling experience check it out. There are always deals out there where you could get 2 games free, or free shoe rental, etc... It's an easy location to find, they offer normal alley food, and the staff was very courteous. I would recommend.

Stephane Salnave

Need some major updates but good for bowling....
