Reviews of Trindle Bowl (Bowling Alley)

Rob Burkholder

The lanes were very slippery in the service was very bad

Derek Dowhower

Very kid friendly!

Tina Sturm

Easy to find. I hadn't been there in yrs. It was nice to go back.

Alan Jordan

Modern, well equipped, very friendly staff. My family visits Trindle Lanes every New Year's Eve for my granddaughter's birthday party. It's a great place for kids and adults to have fun together!

James Lane

Went for the minigolf, Good: neon lights look good Bad: several holes have mechanical doors and on everyone of those holes at least one person in our party would get there ball wedged in the door causing us to get down on hands and knees to get it out. Very warm, it's a semi open room but not very much air flow. Only 12 holes but at the price of 18. Would be a better value at 3.95. Suggestion: get glow in the dark scorecards. You can't see to write the scores down so I had to use a phone app. Test out hole designs first, it's never fun to have your ball get stuck and that happens a lot at this course. Change the arrangement to a consistent difficulty curve (easier at the beginning harder at the end)

Charles Kyle

1 good game ,2 ,bad ones.

V. Antoinette Cunningham

Very nice facility with a clean environment & courteous staff. The "Rock & Bowl" towards the close of the night was also fun with the lights dimmed, the lanes lit up with various colors & you can call the number on the screen to request your favorite Rock song.

Chrylann Fons

We loved the glow-in-the-dark minigolf, the great service and the easy scoring for bowling.

Jessica Grosh

I love their ball policy of sizes. The lighter balls can be used by women and young or handicapped children. I my self have to use one of these because I have a bit of a harder time with a 7lb ball so I need to use the 6lb balls.

Ringo Jones

This message is to the owner. Somehow you got a 2-star rating from me and I never sent a 2 star rating. I've actually only physically bowled at your alley one time and it was a 4-star rating. So I don't know where the 2-Stars came in at. So no apology is necessary, Actually the apology should come from me for not paying better attention when prompted to write a review. Up to this point 4-Star rating customer service, and 4-Star Lane conditions. Thanks

JocelynTheAngel

It was great.

Jay Worth

Awesome! No smoking or drinking, so great for trips with the students from my church! Highly recommended!!

Kraig Barraclough

Family fun bowling alley!

F. Acharya

This is the best "family" bowling alley! We go there several times a year, even though we are not avid bowlers. The staff is ALWAYS nice and do not mind if you have questions while you are there. Once, we went to the desk 3 different times because kids wanted bumpers up or down, and every time the staff said, "No problem!" with a big smile! The owners have a lot of heart. We have also been there on Sundays when Special Olympics is there. The staff is always pleasant, kind, and happy to help. For my kids, I am especially happy about the no smoking, no drinking atmosphere. We are very thankful for a place like this in our community!

Monday family deal is a great value, their food is left to be a bit lacking for the price and it's a very old looking alley

Nicole Willshier

Great place to let my kids be kids

Andrew PARK

Too expensive

Fun and afordable!!!

Danie Boo

Friendly atmosphere.

Pepe Renteria

I really liked the bowling alley I felt it was well lit. And then at night they turned off the lights and made it even better. It was a very cool setting and it was great for the party that we had. Although I feel like their services were bad specially since their shoe guy was very unfriendly but it was still fun. I would recommend this place

Julia Barone

Has a lot to offer ...however the place is in dire need of a update ....the boast the only smoke free but the place smells like an old ashtray ... Can't take my kids since my youngest has breathing issues ...

I love going to this place on dates, as a group for a birthday party, or even for a nice Friday evening with my family for friendly competition. This place is welcoming and the staff is personable and excellent.

Aiyana Alvarez

Chief called, he said this is it

Kyle Gerber

I have always had a wonderful time at Trindle Bowl. The facility and machines and kept in good condition and everything seems to be cleaned well. One concern, however, is that some of the advertisements played periodically on the screens may not be appropriate for children. Something to at least be aware of.

william ryan

Good family fun

Julia Johnson

Great place to have be fun at an affordable price

Christine Armagno

Nice place, good services great family bowling.

Jim Dove

Very family friendly

Sha B

Very nice bowling alley. Look on Groupon for great savings for bowling, drinks and miniature golfing. It's all and one Groupon. Customer service was excellent.

Dirk Robinson

Enjoyable experience

Jodi Scheiterlein

Fun birthday party! Place could use some good cleaning.

Giana Boyd

It is very fun and you will have a good time the people there are helpful but some are a little down but anyway when your time is up it will say "start a new game at the counter" but overall it is really fun!!!

Ed Naglich

Trindle Bowl the home of the 7 10 split! This place is a nice place to go bowl and have fun with friends and family. Plenty of leagues here on any given night. If your looking to join a league check out the information at the table inside. There is a snack bar with some good food options. The prices are pretty reasonable for bowling. They have a golf simulator with a 9 hole mini golf coming in the near future. The only thing that needs to be taken care of since there is no smoking or alcoholic beverages is the ceiling in the place is all colored by when people had smoked there before. If they replaced those and painted the tracking it would really brighten up the place.

Matt Hamilton

Great place.

Rafael Rios

Nice bowling place. What I most llike about it is that no alcoholic beverages are allowed. A big plus if you have children. I also like the old school bowling alley vibe. Very nice and relaxing.

Elijah Olson

Trindle Bowl is a great place! Clean, friendly, and the prices are good (especially the specials they have). I've gone here a couple times now and I've had a blast each time. It's a great idea to take a group of friends and go bowling here. It's also a pleasant atmosphere because it's 100% no smoking and 100% no alcohol

Joseph DeLellis

Great program for kids...bowl 2 games free, if members. Just need to bring or rent shoes. Food and beverages available.

Lois Fischer

The best New Year party was had there. Wonderful people!

Jonathan Bulgrien

Pretty nice venue, great for parties (reservations available) and casual hang outs. There are plenty of lanes (40); although I do not frequent the place, it is often in use by numerous people but rarely swarming. Small arcade room on the side, fun for people who don't mind dropping some quarters. There's also a concessions counter with soda and the likes near the lanes for convenience. *Note that this bowling alley is 100% smoke and alcohol free, so it may not be for you if that's what you're looking for. After 8-9ish, the lights are darked, and cool neon lights and stuff are turned on (you can still see well enough to bowl). Music is really pumped up at all times and fits well with the atmosphere. Price wise, it's not cheap, at around 13 dollars per person buys you two games for a group of 4, not sure if that's before or after coupons, but there are quite a few ways to lower the price, especially if you are a senior citizen or such. (check the website) TL;DR: Excellent facility, but it can get a little expensive. Solid 4 stars.

Rick Harhigh

Decent prices and usually not crowded.

Douglas & Audrey Logar

Trindle bowling is a nice family place. But if you like to drink and bowl. This isnt the place its a non drinking establishment. But overall its nice.

Matthew Hartnett

Great place to bring your family and bowl for a reasonable price.

Frank Gordon

Lanes are good for kids party. Not for good bowlers

Susanne Zeiders

Took my nephew here to use up his free game. There was a glitch in our last game, but they were able to fix it. My only problem is that we paid for 3 games and had a free one. They said after our 3rd game that we had already used our free one and the one we just completed was the 4th. I don't think it was because we were keeping scores (my nephew had won 2 games, and I had won 1). I'm not a confrontational person and had no way to prove it so I didn't argue. If I do go back (not something I do on a regular basis) I will pay for each game individually.

over boss

Was a amazing time , I loved it , thought the Ally did jam frequently

Anne L

Fantastic experience here! I attended a birthday party and the service was excellent. Pricing is reasonable. Bowling is a great experience for all ages. Clean, fresh areas, and great staff! The food is good and served appealing but it is basic fast food but cooked and served to a pleasurable experience. Thank you all for your great help!

Eric Willard

Super friendly, family oriented

Person at the front of store had attitude and was behaving as if obliging by serving us. Overall experience was ok.

Russel Blust

We were at an event there for children with special needs, they were very friendly and accommodating, they also have good and reasonable priced food!

Rick Etter

Fantastic place for total family fun! The new Glow Ball Mini Golf is super fun and I must confess, very hard for any chances of a hole in one. The lanes, balls, scoring, service, and game room are all clean, safe and modernized. Pricing is extremely reasonable. Highly recommend for any small or large gathering.

Jason Spirko

I had a bad experience with the owner in the parking lot. He parked 6" from my truck. I asked him to move because I could not get out and he said he was the owner so I should move. Not polite.

Wade Jump

Isabella Stephanie Maxwell

Great deals for food and bowling for family fun... very clean and the shoes weren't bad.

Great place to take the kids. They partipate in "Kids Bowl Free" program. Friendly staff, decent food at the snack bar, and shoes that look relatively clean.

DT Stin

Hometown bowling alley with all the fixins they serve food. Have party rooms and even an arcade area. Check groupon for deals

Tony Antonides

Food is high priced but well prepared.

Louis Kori

Bowling at great prices

Clair Mccreary

Smoke and alcohol free good snack bar.

Gail Sim

Love the friendly staff and team players in leagues. Could be a little brighter inside though.

WackoSaturn 5797

The lanes suck, there is so much oil, the ball does not curve, and the place is older than dirt.

lisa arciba

Reasonably priced. Purchase of lane includes shoes. You are aloud to bring outside food and drink. Only BOWLING where you cannot smoke and drink alcohol in facility. THAT IS A BIG PLUS for family friendlyness! Fun arcade area within. Thanks Trindle Bowl!

Jenna Pollak

Always a good time and now they have a mini indoor glow in the dark mini golf course. It doesn't take very long to go through, but can be a lot of fun!

Aaron Schappell

A great bowling alley with a family feel. Family Fun; this is an annual tradition.

Mike Sweitzer

Had fun, got to see behind the scenes and meet the staff. Very friendly and helpful. Ceiling tiles were pretty grubby and most of the games in the game room were out of order.

Adam Overmiller

We had our 5 year old son's birthday party here and it was perfect. They opened at 10 for the party (normal hours are 11) so it was just us there. The prices are great and the party room easily accommodated 12 kids and their parents and could have held plenty more people. I would definitely recommend it! Plus the kid's pizzas are individual mini pizzas and not just a slice of a regular pizza.

Sean Mcintire

Smoke an alcohol free make this a perfect family bowling center. They also have daily specials so check the website.

Abena Foaa

Inconsistent policies

shruthi anantharam

Horrible front-office staff! The guy who sits in the front-office was rude and got irritated when asked questions. The only reason I went there because it was family friendly. But, after interacting with this guy, never will I return here. I gave two stars only for the other staff members who were sweet and for the cleanliness of the place.

Jon Ward

Clean, well lit environment, kid friendly and not too loud. Kids will have ton of fun.

Bill Tauriello

It could use a little TLC, old, dated looking.
