It's a bowling alley.... But I prefer it because it's a bowling alley with a bar and not Chuck e cheese like place with all the laser tag and such.
First time there, definitely not had for a Saturday night! Four people, three games w/shoes was $90.
Fun times
I love it here, great lanes and right next door to Wendy's, convenient!
Awesome place for family fun! The food and drink prices are insane though!! Be sure to eat before you go.
nothing special...good lanes for bowling but the other amenities just aren't up to par. The location on East Brainerd has better ambiance for gatherings and a fun night out if bowling is not your primary interest i going.
Nice staff and not live all the time
Lots of lanes all in good condition. Arcade game center, pizza, coffee, cold beer. Good place to bring kids but a little pricey IMO so, look for online coupons or daily specials.
Good place for family fun
Very nice center, just finished tournament.
Great place!
My brother and I bowled in their tournament for the first time we had a great time. People were very hospitable , We will be back
Nice lanes but since the changeover way to expensive for everything
Insanely expensive for the services offered. Staff was not helpful or friendly. Waited in line at the conssession stand to get a beer and after getting to the front of the line I was told I would have to order alcohol at the bar. I went into the bar and the line was to the back of the room. After 20 minutes of standing in that line with no moving I gave up. Came back out to the conssession stand and they were handing someone a beer.
This bowling establishment is clean and well managed by Blake and his staff. Great leagues; especially the "Christian Fellowship League".
Best lanes in Chattanooga! Friendly and helpful staff! Go see Blake!
This is a great place for family bowling night the lanes are clean and the receptionist seem nice. The food is pretty good I recommend the chicken strips and tatter tots. They have bear and the bar area is sectioned off with kareoke for the adults. For the kids there is an arcade area however this is were it reduces it's rating. The arcade could be better kept clean and needs an update as well as better monitoring if it's normal for parts of the games are missing. All in all its definitely fun I just wouldn't go purely for Arcade games
Had an issue with the scoreboard, but got an extra game for free.
Had a great time it's a great family friendly place the staff was great can't wait to go back
Good bowling atomsphere
Ball return machine sometimes gets balls greasy. Bring a rag or towel
Nice facility. Approaches were a little sticky but in good shape
Its cool
Great leagues forming to get you involved.
Had a great time. Bowled for an hour for $31.99 per hour and had 2 lanes. We will go back!
Great place staff is awesome. They do military discount to.
Great place for family fun.
Not so clean, had to wait forever. We had to remind them when 30 minutes had passed.
Friendly stag and great Lanes.
Great experience with friendly staff and an awesome bar. Everything was well kept and neat. Beer served ice cold an great crowd in the karaoke bar! Will definitely be back!
Nice place to have a good time
Need more seating for on Lookers during tournament's but other then that very nice and friendly place
Had a great time! Staff is great, food is great, music is great, we just love it here. We get coupons for bogo and come on "unlimited bowling" nights and have a great time for a small amount of $$$. The competitor on Lee hwy is no match for this place, and that's why we travel the extra distance from Ringgold. :)
Attendant was super chill and helpful. We were very inexperienced and still felt welcomed. The place was very organized. This place is awesome!!
expensive but fun
Front desk personnel (Candi) was superb! Used to love the soft pretzels but they no longer serve them :(
Awesome time with family
Great place to take the kids they have bowling and a game room pretty cool.
Good service and $5 for 16oz beer.!
We have a blast here! Real low key place for locals.
Lanes were brutal bad had a great time in the tournament.
Nice place for family outing but it's a little out dated. The game room needs a new make over. All the staff have been really friendly and it's very clean establishment.
Not happy with this place, paid for all you can bowl birthday deal with free pizza but we stayed unroll almost closing and they turned off ourlanes when we only had 4 frames left to bowl. They cut us off short and when we asked for our free pizza they said they were out and weren't gonna make anymore. At this time it was actually about 15 min. unroll closing. Still they should honor what they sell. Mean spirited staff.
A fun time for all ages. The arcade was a little out dated.
Great customer service made sure kids had good time and was able to bowl and have fun
Pretty good bowling alley. It's clean. One draw back is there are not gutter guards on all the lanes.
I only go here to sing karaoke. I can't bowl due to back trouble, but the lanes here look awesome. It makes me sad that I can't use them! They have really good food, like chicken tenders, fries, pizza, and other miscellaneous bar-type food. Legends is the name of the bar they have that is separate from the bowling ally. In there, you can choose from virtually any spirit you want, and the bartenders can make any concoction youve ever heard of or that you can dream up. I like it because there's no smoking in there, and the people are still friendly and fun to you, even if you choose not to imbibe. On Friday and Saturday nights, they have karaoke at Legends, and most of the time it's off the hook...It's as good a karaoke place as there is when the main guy, Patman is there. The other karaoke dj's are pretty much not my style, and I will only go when Patman (Patrick) is there. Most people like the other kj's just fine, so it's probably just me. Be prepared to wait to sing, though, as usually it seems like everybody in the whole place is singing. Legends has a good atmosphere and good folks. I'd highly recommend.
Had a fun time
Great staff bent over backwards to see that our party had everything they needed.
Very outdated. Bartender wouldn’t accept a Valid Paper ID. Place deserves a zero rating.
I love this bowling alley and the (summer) kids bowl free program!
My 6 year old went with her camp. She enjoyed it so much! She did not stop talking about it! The workers are friendly and full of laughs. I will be going back with my family really soon!
Good place to bowl nice clean and friendly people
The arcade was great but the alley prices are steep.
Really fun place. Clean. Game area for kids. They do the blacklight thing too.
Thank you for the birthday accomodation, they were very helpful and the price justifies the plusses we got. They also get a bowling pin remembrance where other could write on it.We never received the free game cards tho for the bday celebrant and attendees which is included in package which kinda saddens me but other than that it was okay
Family Friendly
When did bowling become so.. EXPENSIVE!?
Pretty good bowlig, full bar with kareok. A little pricy.
Decent bowling. Not a huge fan of their alcohol serving policy... Which is non existent. No buckets, no pitchers... Have to go in the bar to get anything.
I Love Karaoke. Best DJ's ever. Everybody is fun and friendly. The staff is Awesome. All around great place to meet good people!
Great Family fun place has my grandbabies Birthday party here and they were awesome
Was there for a fund raiser for junior achievement, everyone was very friendly. Bar tender was especially courteous and remembered my name as well.
It's expensive! My son and I bowled two games and played in the arcade for 30 minutes and spent $50.
Great place to bowl but prefer evening bowling better prices and more laid back
It was Great my Grandson Team Win there Game today Sequatchie Indians lol There Awesome !!!
Nice bowling alley enjoy yourself at a real good time
It can accommodate league bowlers when a tournament is going on.
Took my son and some friends to bowl on Sunday morning. Enjoyed ourselves. Place was clean and staff was very nice. Will be back again
Staff in lounge are very friendly, as well as on top of things. I usually go on Friday or Saturday night's for karaoke, dj's are very good, crowds are pleasant and there are some very good singers to, easy on the ears lol
Very nice staff. Great place to come to and have a nice gathering.
Really a great place for the office events to be conducted here, manager provided enough dedicated lines for us with standard pricing and she also supported very well for our food arrangements and they have good number of kids machine to be engaged and also the menu they had is also fine for both Veg and Non-veg dishes. The 2 reasons for 4 star rating is that they don’t have the VIP Lounge as like their other location and also the kids game needs to be managed by us they don’t have an option for providing some overall gift cards to be distributed in case of event arranged. Definitely without any doubt can be considered for any office event and also for your family get together!!!
Wonderful staff and very fun place.
Awesome place
It was clean, good food, good beverage choices, family friendly, and excellent service!
Ok
Very clean and friendly staff.
Love the new upgrades. The environment is uplifting too.
good bowling alley and people are awesome
So much fun!
Great place for a child's birthday party!
Okay, first, let me just say that I love to go bowling. It's a great familiy-oriented event that even the youngest and oldest members of any family can play with just a little assistance. Add to these things a full bar, a restaurant with some really good food and an arcade complete with skiball to make for an amazing outing with the family right ? Only 1 small problem, if you just so happen to want to play 1 more game, it was going to cost kayla and I something like 40 bucks, because we had been there too long and they aren't ABLE to charge you for just 1 game after a certain time. After that point you have to rent a lane by the hour. Now, I would LOVE that as an option, but forcing me to buy an hour of lane time when I really just want to play a quick game with a friend does not make me feel incredibly cared for as a customer.
I always go with family but I love also to go see there amazing bartender Megan she know her stuff about drinks. And she great to talk to they have karaoke in the bar as well. The only thing is there not really that many young people on the karaoke night that I went to. I would suggest try to find away to get the younger crowd in there.
Sucks,very unfriendly,and cold
Lots of family fun.
Helpful, polite staff. Clean, with comfortable seating/table at the lanes. Made for a great night.
So, I'm pretty picky. I had a hard time deciding between 4 & 5 stars. But when I thought about the place overall...Great staff, clean and decent prices. I think the arcade area leaves a little to be desired, but its not really that bad and the bathrooms are fairly clean, but could use a baby changing station to be a little more family friendly! I haven't eaten anything there, so I honestly cant comment on food & drink.
I bowl here a lot. I even got my ball drilled here. The staff is nice, the food is good, the prices are decent, and the music is really groovy.
Great food
It was okay. Building seemed kind of older and a little lackluster. Th prices were okay. My biggest complaint is that the snack bar girl was in the back constantly and it took about 10 min of us alternating going up to the counter between bowls to finally get service. Other employees saw us and didn't do anything. So, service not great.
Bowling with the girls... I won of course lol
Always a good time & much fun
Pretty awesome bowling alley. The bar is cozy and Megan was an amazing bartender. The food was good bar food. Watch out for league night if you wanna bowl aka Wednesday. Lol. Go bowling here!
Great family environment!!! Was here for Special Olympics Bowling and they were a great staff to all the kids. Clean environment and a great experience overall!!
Great place to go bowling. They are currently undergoing a large remodeling which will likely improve your experiences even more in the near future.
Great place to hang with family and friends while bowling and they also have karaoke
Had my sons b day and had an amazing time
Very nice lanes
Very rude staff
Great birthday party for my daughter!
Friendly staff, clean environment. A great place to have fun with friends and family.
Lots of bowling fun!
Thanks for a great Christmas party for my coworkers and our families!
Very nice! Lots of fun.
Went to get my PAP on my ball
My son bowls for his high school bowling team. They lead staff heard that the coach wanted him to move up to a heavier ball and they jumped in and gave us 2 bowling balls the exact weight needed. The balls were donated by an elder to help our high school kids. A great experience.
Fun and busy. Staff very helpful and not to bad on price either.
Lots of fun good pricing
Very fun place for family to go.
Fun and I didn't think the prices were too bad on it on the Thursday night I went
Nice enjoyable time. Good family time.
Little pricey unless you get discounts. One of the better places I have bowled.
Went for New Year's Eve party, lots of fun!
Had my daughter's birthday party there without a planning it through them and we had a blast. We had done the party planned with them and it was just as fun. So either way you'll have fun.
They have had a great deal through the summer so that my grandson (and occasionally a friend or two) could bowl two games per day free- the only expense is for shoe rental and snacks.
Bowled in the tournament there very clean and wonderful staff.
Good atmosphere but felt like the lanes had to much oil on them
Nicely updated alley. Very comfortable layout. Management is courteous and accommodating. We bring the kids every holiday for a fun afternoon out.
Good time, pricing is not what I assumed. Be prepared to pay to play.
Bad
We come here every year for the bowling tournament. They do have some young staff but they are very friendly. They play good music- very family friendly! The prices on their menu aren't horrible like a lot of bowling alleys.
Very clean!
Very good time. Staff is great, clean facility. Will be back for sure
Older gent at rental desk tells me " Be with you in a sec" then took a work related call, personal call, chatted with guy in Pro Shop, chatted with another couple, then went to make a sandwich! When confronted, I was told "On, I forgot about you" needless to say we left.
It's a great place to bowl
Fun was had, drinks were cold but slow and the food was good but slow, slower, slowest! We'll be back, but will have to order before we actually get hungry!
Spare Time employees are wonderful, kind, helpful and very special people. The atmosphere is family like, except when the bar is open, then sometimes there are people who may drink to much and can get nasty, but the staff does take care of that person quickly. I enjoy bowling here, not just on the league, but with friends and family.
It’s Extremely expensive to bowl here. 17$ for 3 games is HIGH. The lane surfaces are great but they flood them with oil so that people like me who bowl competitively have a tough time actually hooking the ball any where you throw it on the lane. Staff is nice and polite but sometimes that doesn’t make up for the crazy high per game prices( and the price per game includes shoes but if you don’t need rental shoes like me why should I have to pay that much?) also it’s kinda dark on the lanes too. Hard to see.
Ready help people and very nice.
Soo much fun! They have bowlings balls for people of different sizes and strengths. I didn't see a menu when I went to get food or a drink, though.
Love to bowl. Nice people. Good eats.
Great fun! We've had several parties here over the years, and they were all great.
Male employee with beard was very rude he tried charging extra than the listed price and he treated us like a joke laughing about it the whole time I am disgusted
Awesome lanes.. Awesome service... Awesome staff...
We have a bowling league there every Wednesday and the staff is always so helpful and friendly!
It's been updated but the lanes are still horrible kept stopping and / or breaking down the food was ok but our server kept forgetting parts of our order so I thought it would be easier to just go get it myself It's all kids that work there I only seen one adult his name was Justin really nice really helpful and that's why instead of one star I gave them 3
Decent.
A little expensive to bowl one game
Service for drinks to your bowling lane was slow , but the server was super nice !
Great place for family fun
Great time with the family.
Lanes reset fast, Tuesdays nights are $10 all you can bowl, includes shoes!
Great place for childrens birthday party's
I love the place. The only downside is if you want a bigger and better place, you should go to the one on Lee Highway.
I love the place been bowling there since i was 9 or 10 they have good food And also the Workers are nice and friendly they have 2 DJ Friday and Saturday night's and A good Bar Staff that work there also
Fun place
Love it here. My grandparents bowl here Melvin and Polly
Great place for family and friends to bowl. They have lots of lanes and bumpers if you need them. The place is smoke free and has an arcade as well. The food here is good too.
Good food. Good prices. Excellent bartender. And best of all, karaoke!!
Went to Legends to hangout with some friends for karaoke and had a great time!
Went for Catoosa County Special Olympics bowling, and Spare Time was awesome.
Great atmosphere and options
My family is starting to bowl together quite regularly and this location happens to be the most convenient. For the most part the staff is ok, the lanes are ok, but for whatever reason for the past 2 months we've had annoying issues each lane we have been on. Sometimes more pins will be up than what the score says or the lane will get frozen. Over all the place is just OK
Place is AWESOME! The food is great too!
Had a lot of fun bowling with the family here
Wow !! Went to Holiday Bowl to bowl in a tournament last weekend, they have been running this for 15+years, always was a decent house shot and scoring was usually pretty good, all changed as they decided to use a sport shot pattern the 95% of people cant bowl on. I saw people with 180+ averages not even hit 100. Why would they do this?? Maybe this is their last year running it, if not I know of 30-50 people that wont be back as well as 20+ that asked us how it went, We told them to save the gas and entry fee and take their family out to dinner, a much better choice than wasting 1 to 1.5 hours to drive there and get humiliated. We will never be back.
Nice place to bowl.
