Can not judge bowling alley but the restaurant is good.
Great place for bowling
Great time here with my wife. Had to wait for service when we arrived and then a team from the college came and it became very loud and could not enjoy bowling so we left.
I little crowded at times but otherwise a great place
Trivia, beer, bowling, good food & friends.
Pizza is OUT OF THIS WORLD! (They make it in house). This bowling alley is a cool hangout spot.
Nice place
It was horrible. The bartender Nicole is the worse I've ever encountered.
Bowling, pizza, and arcade games. Its a great family evening all in one place! If your on a tight budget, check out the different packages and deals.
Great atmosphere. Went to a birthday party and the service was excellent. Great place for a children's birthday party or get together. The kids loved the Rock N Bowl time.
I went with my friends. Service was absolutely terrible. We asked the guy at the corner to switch our lanes before we even started so that we could be next to the other half of our party. The guy said “no because I don’t feel like it.” Food took forever to order on a Tuesday night and took even longer to come out. Pizza tasted bad.
Slow food/drink service every time but always a fun time.
Lanes ball and racks suck. They break down a lot and staff seems to not know how to fix it
Well maintained, clean, a nice environment. BUT... my party was there at noon and we were ready for lunch. Nobody was to be found at the snack bar so the lady at the service counter told us to check the arena. Nobody was in there either even though it was open. Other customers were looking for food as well. We would have stayed and played more frames if we had food service.
Lanes well maintained. Friendly staff and the specials are pretty good. Give it a visit.
Terrible. Guy rang me up for 5 games and we bowled 4. Then he forgot to ring me up for shoes and then did a separate transaction and refused to take my card embarrassing me in front of my friends because it was under some $7 minimum. Poor customer service.
It's always very clean, well run with very friendly staff. <3 it!
Great place to relax and enjoy the good food have fun with friends and family Bolling.
Good food family fun bowling
Very friendly service and the lanes were in good shape. Slightly dry but for casual bowling it was good. Brought my own shoes and balls so can't comment on the house equipment
I have gone here since I was little and it is still a great place to hang out. There’s good deals some nights and the Arena has great wings. Come here for some pizza and to bowl with some friends.
Lots of fun is a college town.
Nice place, good food, motel well cared for.
Way too expensive. Only played two games and cost me $23. Will not be back.
If I could give 0 stars I would. Their Thursday night deal apparently starts at 9pm, and my friends and I arrived at 8:30 not knowing about the time restrictions. The deal was $5 down, and then $1 for every game and $1 for shoes. Because we didn’t “cash out” at 9, and then re-start our games we were charged full price for every game, and for shoes. Even though our first game ended at 9:05, that and the five other games we played got charged full price. When we went to check out, instead of the $12 a person we were expecting, we got charged $25.50 PER PERSON. The lady at the counter laughed and smirked at our distress, fully aware that she purposefully didn’t warn us about the deal supposedly starting at 9. $25.50 a person on a Thursday night is ridiculous and the employees were completely willing to screw us over knowing full well we came in for the deal. Regardless if we paid full price for the first game, it should’ve switched to the the deal at 9 for the other games we played. Terrible service, for what was supposed to be a fun night out to relax and not focus on schoolwork. Would not recommend to anyone.
The bowling alley is a very fun atmosphere and a nice place to hang out with friends. Definitely the nicest bowling alley in the area. The Pizza here is underrated, its better than half of the local pizza joints in town. Only thing I knock this place for is the Arena seating area. Definitely could use a facelift and some larger televisions. But the wait staff is very good and I've never been disappointed with the food.
The service is reasonable, prices are fair and it's always a strikingly good time.
Smelled weird, food was decent.
Great environment for everyone
Fun
A decent place to hang out with friends. Also a good place for office get together or meet and greet events. Multiple games available to choose from. Not much crowded so less wait time. Decent bar collection and food options. Wouldn't mind to visit again.
Fun place to bowl or play pool. Relatively cheap, especially the pool. It's a nice environment to just have a couple drinks and relax with friends while having fun. The food is also quite good here.
Very fun place to spend a Saturday night, there's bowling, pool, food, drinks, and a great atmosphere!
Great place to bowl, eat, drink, and play other games. Family fun!
Absolutely terrible service. Stuffs were rude, shoes were old and smell so sad.
Nice place, usually busy and you'll wait a bit for everything. Staff aren't the friendliest but they're understaffed so it's understandable I guess.
As far as bowling goes this is a fun place to go. Great food and music while you bowl. The downside is you can't call ahead and make lane reservations on a Friday or Saturday night.
Bowling specials make it entertaining!
Very nice here and they do some really good inexpensive specials on bowling food and drinks.
Nice place to bowl with bar style food and drinks.
Had a great time here!
Cool place. Kind of expensive
Staff is friendly and funny.
One of the only and amazing places to bowling at. They have great offers on weekdays.
Great alleys, great food, cheap beer
Great bowling on Saturdays and quick service at the snack bar.
Great place for afternoon Saturday and Sunday "galaxy bowling"!! Awesome. Good pizza as well.
It was quiet there nothing much but a band playing tonight
The venue itself was pretty decent, pretty clean place and decent food. however, the employee for the bowling center was extremely rude.
Place has bowling, pool, video games, pin ball, basketball hoop, ... Great place to play and have fun in State College. My only complain is that the food sucks.
Good clean bowling fun!
Had a great time
Good place to have fun bowling
Desk clerk was very helpful with request.
Horrible service. The lady who assisted us was very rude and sarcastic. If she is not an owner, I highly recommend to owner think about the service. When I asked questions she gave me piece of paper sheet and didn’t answer to talk. She yelped on me on call. Shoes are very old. If you happy to see annoying service and wear smelly old bowling shoes, you are welcome.
The lady with the long brown hair behind the front counter needs to be fired.
Me and my friend have a standing Tuesday bowling night on there $2 Tuesdays...it's always been great!
not the best customer service and at least one rude manager (maybe the owner)
Decent bar food for a bowling alley, good deals on beer. Our lane kept having errors, but this was the first time we had a problem like this
Bowling was fine and food was decent. My issue was with the service we got. The girl working the desk seemed generally confused about the whole process. When we were done she did not return my driver's license to me. When I called about it the next day she tried to make it seem as if it was my fault - it should not be the customer's responsibility to remind the staff to do their job.
Very clean and friendly
Well run operation, great service at reasonable prices. In addition the restaruant serves excellent food.
Fun place.
Bowling and pizza. Recently redecorated.
Great place, very clean. Pizza is really good and it's a fun choice for kid's birthdays!
Awesome place to spend a night with friends. They have pool tables and air hockey tables also, if you want a break from bowling. $1 pizza slices are not great but will taste fine after having some drinks.
I come here quite often. The staff can be a hit or miss. A lot of problems with the pin machine but the staff fixes the problem when informed. Sometimes it takes longer than expected. Really wish they would maintain the machines better. They should also treat their loyal customers better with a reward system.
Great time, room was great,bowling was fun. Definitely come back again.
Great bowling alley! Low prices, well-maintained, and friendly staff.
Our family had an enjoyable time bowling at Northland Lanes on a Sunday afternoon. The staff even took us for a tour behind the lanes when things were quiet, which was very special for my young children.
A lot cheaper than at home. The place is clean, has a ton of bowling balls, and overall is a great bowling alley. EDIT: I had to change my review because of a bad experience. I came for an unlimited bowling day on July 3rd. I called before hand to make sure I could just come in, and was told yes. When I got in my fiancee and I bowled like 6 games and we went to check out and was told some absurdly high price (like 60 dollars or something). I told the guy the unlimited bowling shouldn't have come out to that much. He said I should have told him that before we bowled and he couldn't change the price or do anything. Mistakes happened and they eventually fixed it. TLDR; If you are bowling with some sort of special, make sure you tell the person at the cash register before you bowl so you don't get charged the normal rate.
Love hanging out there with friends!!
Great food! Fun environment.
Awful service. Workers are mean. And the staff completely ruined our suprise party for my nephew. Did not let us bring in our cake for him even though we called before and they said it was fine. And we were going to suprise him but they wouldn't let us have a lane until everyone was here. Absolutely awful. Do not recommend this place for birthday parties. Absolutely the worst
The manager is a bully She thinks she can treat ppl however she wants just because her husbands a cop She jumped in my face over one mess up while training as a new employee, and because I discovered how she was ripping customers off with parties - I was fired Kept all my tips from me and kept lying about where they were I spoke to owner several timed about her unprofessionalism and the money owed to me He never acted on my complaints
great local bowling alley! food is reasonably priced. wings and pizza are pretty good!
Fun place. Great to entertain groups of friends and events here. Everything a good bowling alley should have. Drinks, snacks, arcade, pool tables.
Food was good, Karen is THE BEST! Great personality, remembers what you like to order, always a smile!
The junior league people are quite helpful.
Fun place to hang out and bowl. Decent food and lots to do.
Good place to bowl. Pro Shop staff is very knowledgeable.
I liked the atmosphere. But when we got there we had to wait 10 minutes at the counter because no one was there, then we had to go across the building to the arena and get service.
The staff was so nice and caring
Great place and amazing offers
These people need to change their attitudes ,clean there rooms BETTER, maintance need to keep up on the equipment... . Price is ok... Charging regular people football prices are WRONG Karen
Fun time, glow bowling after 9pm. Had a blast
Great place!
nice place for bowling
Nice place to bowl
A place to have fun with family and friends.
Nice bowling place. Track was getting some technical difficulties. we had to complain and they were fast to solve the issue.
Good bowling and concert venue.
Feels like they don't clean the bowling balls at all.
You can bowl here with kids or drink beer and play pool with friends. If you're into arcade games, they have a decent selection of those, too.
When we got there (at 6pm) it took a little while for someone to come to the desk and set us up and the reception was poor untill 7pm but after that the reception was perfect. It was a fun experience and a great way to spend time with friends. It was so fun that I will be back next weekend!
Food service was very slow but the atmosphere was good.
Got some major attitude from the cashier trying to get shoes and she started to get angry at her co-worker. Good fries.
Clean, fun, great value. Staff is indifferent.
You cannot beat the drink and food prices here. Food is your standard almost greasy spoon but it is a bowling alley. They have buzztime trivia on all the time which is cool and tend to book some really good bands.
Table service was only for food odd.
Great time as usual, just couldn't figure out how to get the speeds of each players throw to display after carefully searching thru everything.
Grate place to have fun and bowling
Great service and alot of fun.
Poor lanes... they don’t break from a bowl down the lane... BALLS GREASY AS HECK... can’t hear music either...
Cheap beer,food and bowling = 100/100
The food was out-of-sight delicious. Order was obtained through a delivery service for ease of service at home. I don"t think i have ever had such enjoyable potato skins with bacon or pierogies in my life. I'll be eating food from there frequently. It was truly a remarkable eating experience. Kudos to all of you, and thank you.
Always a fun place with no waiting. Food is good and drink specials are reasonably priced
Good place to bowl but the workers aren't very polite
Clean, updated, and friendly service.
Terrible business, poor management and shotty maintenance
Great place price per game also great not expensive at all
Good place to bowl and have fun with friends.
They advertised good deals but still charged us full price after we bowled. We ended up paying 12 dollars extra per person, because we didn't know that we had to specify whether we wanted the deal or not. Meanwhile the vendor was dancing and only half listening to us when it came time to pay. It was as if she knew she was about to screw us over.
Bowling lanes are old, on numerous occasions pins would just fall down in their setup. Most shoes are falling apart and smell intolerable. Service is incredibly poor. Also they commonly forget to give back you ID at the end of the session, enough so that they have an organized system to return IDs but will claim no fault and will be rude when you come and try to get it back. Otherwise fairly decent prices.
Good bowling experience but they lack the right sized bowling balls almost all the time
Nice, clean facility. Specials available on line. Kids bumpers easily set up.
Great people, everyone is always nice, and this place is a go to spot when we are looking for something to do.
Fun time glow bowling!! The best pizza that I ever ate anywhere!!
Good ambience and fun
Fun place to go!
The food was excellent. Service was fast, courteous and polite. The Arena is an awesome place to get a great meal!
I would give them 6 stars if I could. Good food. Great prices. Great environment
Mrs. Pacman goes fast
Great food & bowling
Fun place for bowling and pool
Terrible service ever. The mean lady at the counter turned down future customers. If she is not the owner, there is no hope for this place. If she is not the owner, the owner needs to know about their quality of service.
Too many troubles when playing. Customer service not good as well. Deal was nice 13ish dollars unlimited 1-5 pm weekdays
The facility itself was nice, but the one employee at the register (serving drinks and food) was extremely rude.
Fun for a college crowd. Many lanes
good bowling experience. Wednesday 10$ deals are best.
Great venue with mostly friendly locals. The venue consists of pool tables bowling Lanes, a connected Motel, as well as various arcade games and a Bar. They bring in many acts that play on the stage located in the Arena Bar and Grill, which has some delicious food at great prices
We were there with our family, and have never been treated so badly by the manager, Karen. unbelievable. the owners really need to do something about it or they are going to lose a ton of business. The bartender in the arena bar and grill was also very short and rude with us. If you are working with the public, you should learn how to treat people. The young kid working behind the desk, Aziz, was incredible, if it weren't for him we would have left immediately. A shame that a fun family day had to turn sour because of some rotten workers
Cool place.
I love bowling! There are very great deals that are hosted at this facility. Bring your friends, it's a great time for local fun.
Go during one of their specials, otherwise it's too expensive.
Fun time with the family... fun, clean environment
My kids come here using the free summer coupon. It is really fun to bowl and get some snacks here!
