Reviews of AMF Hanover Lanes (Bowling Alley)

Kathy Cavicchi

A great experience for family fun or league. Super clean and a top notch staff makes for a great time

Gari Riddick

Great house! Family atmosphere and delicious food!

Letitia Washington

Wednesdays are league nights! Most likely, you won't get a lane if you are not a part of a league. Nice facility and arcade! Friendly staff!

MIA Lightfoot

Improvement to the functionality of the bar but need more food options and cheaper pricing

Steven Barnhart

Fun as usual. My 7yrs old and I go there for our Daddy and Daughter outting.

Clay Dillard

Great place and very busy

Keith Ross Sr

Service has become non existent. League bowlers have to go to counter to get food. Floors are dirty.

Jared Grodensky

It was a decent experience overall. The beer was cold, food was decent, and it was easy to find a bowling ball that fit. All things were as expected.

Justin Baxter

Great time. Two different bowling sections. Arcade and bar. Great place!

Destiny Pleasant

The facility is huge, as expected! And the diversity of the balls is appreciated and expected. We had a pretty easy time finding what we needed, but struggled a bit to locate the lighter balls for children without help. The blacklit alleys are really stunning, along with the many projectors, that come out past dark. Only complaint is how utterly expensive everything is! It's simply akin to a movie theater's strategy of appealing to necessity. But it'd be nice if you didn't have to pay $3.50 for a bottle of water.

Monique Riley

These lanes are okay but can be very crowed which i understand because they are very popular to the area.

Marvin Tillman

A great spot! Updated and fun!!

Greene DoubleR

Pool hall need attention. Staff inattentive to needs

LaTrice Taylor

Went for a bday party. Kids had a blast. The staff is not polite/ friendly nor professional. The hosts was constantly huffing and puffing when asked to do her job. Overall, kid friendly place just need better staff!

vernetta phillips

Awesome place to bowl, play arcade games, food & overall great place for families & singles.

Stephen White

This is a pretty nice bowling alley. One side of it is your traditional setup with minimal aesthetics and the other has music videos, dark lights and other silly stuff. They have a station that has food and drinks so you can get pizza, beer and other stuff you'd associate with bowling. The prices are decent and the people working there are nice. Really no complaints

Rigo Disla

Good atmosphere but a bit on the expensive side. To get your money's worth use a Groupon deal but make sure to read the fine print as you have to wait 24 hours to use the Groupon.

Chrystal Lewis

Great alley has 50+ lanes. Full service snack bar with alchohol available. Alley has a large arcade a billiards room and a pro shop. There are different pricing options available depending on how many people are bowling and how many games you want to bowl. I would advise you call ahead to see if they have lanes available some nights there are large leagues or tournaments that take up alot of lanes.

Sierra Puffenbarger

The place would rather spend money on a new bar rather than spend money on making the service and food better. Took over 15 minutes just to get a cookie and ice cream and all of the ice cream was melted. If it weren't for the league I'm in, I would not come back. I'm sure you can find a better bowling alley to attend.

Allen Miotke

We had a small group to celebrate my son's birthday after school on a Friday afternoon. We were on 2 lanes and had a great time. The bowling alley was clean, the staff was helpful, and they weren't very busy.

Shantelle Moore

More pricier than back in the day

Tameka Wilson

Lots of fun for the family. Great atmosphere and service.

Tee Jay

We rented out 4 lanes but 2 of the lanes had so many problems we ended up with free games. After 6pm on Sunday night the games are $3 p/p and $3 per shoe rental. The drinks are pretty nice and reasonable but the food is pricy. I ordered the double burger which was delicious. The bathrooms are pretty clean which was surprising. There is a game room and pool table lounge also which is pretty nice. It was my first time there but I enjoyed it

Laidbackgamerzz One

Great arcade; bowling lanes are up to date; on site restaurant that has touch screen ordering from the lanes. Paid $60 for 2 adults, 1 teenager and 2 children to bowl one game with shoe rentals. Wish it was a little more affordable.

Noel Santana

Great place to hang out and have fun not too expensive

Cheryl Ronquillo

Cool so much fun.

Michael Chandler

I can win a game

Brandon Grimmer

400 dollars for 4 people to bowl 3 games with a pizza and 4 beers. Unbelievable will never go back

Ty ThaGuye

Definitely worth a visit! Fun for couples or groups and worth the money spent. Interactive and charismatic!

Rosemary Hasenei

The alleys started on the wrong lane every game. You could not hear any announcements. TOO many solicitations by NON LEAGUE people. I will not join this league next year.

Doris Spenner

Great place to bowl and enjoy some food!

Marvin Pierce

Great place to have a good time.

jennifer robertson

Fun place to bring your children

Cameron Jessup

Super fun. Love the bowling and the arcade is great

Jillian DiMarco

Great for a reasonably priced bowling alley! Food decent, too

Dave Fielding

Great bowling. They only go up to 12 lb. balls though. You can use the bumpers at any time.

UnknownTuber MistyPlays

My group broke the machine agian heh

Pat Cawthon

It's nice in there. Newly renovated. Food was ok. I ordered chicken and it was a little on the hard side.

Christopher Trites

Great atmosphere, bowling alley and pro shop!

Genevive Jiggetts

My grandson bowled there for the youth championship

sandra Bowles

Disappointed they changed the hours, effects when we can come.

Patrice Jones

My daughter enjoyed this place.

Shanise Evans

Good place. But sometime they took forever for getting food or drinks

Jason Rushforth

First time in. Was league night so we played pool and hung out in the arcade.

HotJrod Redd

Had a great time. Food is a little pricey. But overall I think people can enjoy themselves..

Doug Faulkner

Staff seems to hate their jobs. Customers treated like inconvenience; unwelcome

Art Beasley

GREAT bowling center. GREAT staff.

Josephina M

Lanes are nice and great Sunday specials. Staff needs some training on professionalism and customer service.

L Johnson

Nice bowling alley but the food pricing is too high.

Muriel Moss

Had fun with family!

Greg Gorbet

We played pool in the pool hall what was a bar at one time and you are pretty much by yourself, no wait staff or anything to get you drinks or other needs. Table felt was old and worn but other than that, they had a nice collection of fairly new cues and the price was very reasonable. We will return to play pool again.

Ken Russell

Couldn't get legue Sect info. Nobody at the counter had a phone number to call.

J H

Decent size bowling alley. About 60 lanes. Good food selection. I got the chicken fingers and fries and food was very hot and good. Went on a Sunday after 8pm. So was very satisfied. They have deals on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday's, and Wednesday after certain times. Very good deals

Joy Green

This bowling alley is pretty clean! The bathrooms could use some TLC but that's typical. The screens above the pins are so cool. The arcade is pricey (number of points per game was pretty steep) but my children still enjoyed "playing" the games once they ran out of points on their cards. Small children should be very careful in the arcade section - my 5 y.o. tripped over a structure put in place to prevent tripping over cords (how ironic) and got a pretty bad gash above the eye. The pizza was hot and tasted pretty good so my little ones were happy with our visit!

Tad Hines

It's a bit pricey but it's a really nice place and you get what you pay for.

BLVD BULLY 804

I league bowl here and LOVE the way employees treat you here. A little pricy for my liking but me, my team, and family deal with because we enjoy the people.

travis robinson

Pool tables r great

Sophonia Ray

Great place for your family

Kathy Hoffner

Had a great time.

Krystina Seaborn

Great place for everyone to enjoy from kids to adults!

shakira Powell

Made reservations got there and the person I talk to didn't put my information in so I had to wait three hours for three lanes which my party was separated separated and was over charged for my group because I didn't do the party package which that's what I did when I called.

Taumara Hill

Good place , very friendly people

andrew tignor

Don't live in this area anymore but I have to at least give it a shout out..As bowling seems to be lagging in every other town this area seems to be cutting threw the fog and still setting the pace for others to watch and copy. The pro shop is unmatched as far as ability to be able to drill a ball, which Fredericksburg seems to NOT know how to do. Prices are more in line with affordability as well. Good job on this center.

mrstayc1231

Lanes conditions were horrible. Extremely dry, like open bowl

Kimberly J

Had a great time, the only issue was one of the bumpers didn't work properly, for the kids, they were informed and tried fixing it immediately. Used a groupon for my family.

Alexander DuBois

Great atmosphere for adults as well as kuds

Jason McConnell

Typical Bowling Ally feel. Well kept and clean. Bar service and timleiness was extremely sub par resulting in 3/5 instead of 4/5.

Justin To

They have tons of Lanes here and a great selection of food. It's more expensive than your hole in the wall bowling alley but it's worth it in my opinion.

Michael Urso

My lane seemed to have a slight tilt. The wax was fine. Very expensive for bowling, though. 30 dollars for 4 people to Bowl one game, only 2 of us needed shoe rental. And we had a two for one coupon. This is a Sunday morning, too. Arcade was expensive as well. Otherwise the alley was clean and the service was good.

terrena wallace

First time here to celebrate my coworkers retirement. We had so much fun. And there is a full bar and a food menu. Prices were great

Terri K

We had fun and the place was nice, but we ran into problems. One of the rails didn't work, the pins stopped resetting, they cleaned some of our food away when we said not to, and the bathroom was stinky. The game room was fun also, prizes could be better though. Food was so greasy it made me sick and my husband didn't eat the burger. Better to stick to just bowling.

Matthew D

Terrible service!! Every employee here acts like they are being spoke to in a foreign language. No courtesy, no knowledge of work place and is poorly managed. It's truly way to expensive to handle with terrible employees and a trashy environment.

David Scates

Overcharge for all food and slow swrvice.

Pamela Dismuke

Good food and great service

Andrew Mcgona

Fun place for the family!

Constrick bailboa

Had a awesome time

Christopher Burch

Good , clean, fun place

Michael Martin

Nice place. Software on scoring machines is confusing and hard to use.

Erica Forrest

I took the kids for there spring break. I thought there was going to be a large crowd. My kids enjoyed there selves so mommy was happy.

chris coleman

Great atmosphere and drinks!

Troy Foster

Nice fun place and very clean.

Amia Setzer

Such nice service here!

Chris ALDRIDGE

It is a very enjoyable experience especially with friends.

SANDY CHANDLER

This was clean and lanes are fast. My wife would not let me win but I enjoyed every minute. Great place to bowl with family.

Julie Bell

What a great event for Junior Achievement ! So much fun! And C &F Bank won the “Greenest Team” trophy!! What a great bank to work for! Thanks fir a great afternoon AMF Hanover Lanes!

Mary Adams

It's great if you go on a night when they have specials!! The staff was friendly & the place was pretty clean

Harley Gilbert

Good food. Fun atmosphere for family. Good bowling leagues

XR Restoration

Nice clean bowling alley with friendly staff

LaMar Gibson

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff and great value. Tuesdays are definitely the best deal but will get crowded starting at 7p. Good food and drinks,the Mega Footlong deal was sold out but substituted 4 reg hot dogs with the same toppings and a surprisingly strong Long Island that was $2.22.

Liz Ramos

We booked our party over the phone at a last minute and they were awesome. Wings were great and our family had a great time!!

Jay King

Great place to bowl. Friendly people and awesome staff.

Ramsey Salem

Nice place with a lot to offer arcades, billiards food and more very clean. Only reason that I am not giving 5 stars is it was under staffed over a nice place

Groove Lw

We had fun but when did bowling get so expensive! The arcade inside may be the biggest ripoff ever for video games! The arcade gets one star if that.

Amanda Franklin

We love visiting Hanover Lanes! Staff are polite and attentive to guests. The facility is always clean and the environment us just pure fun!

Laronda Williams

Great service....food was tasty and inexpensive.

Glen Lambert

Went on Sunday at noon only to find the bowling alley had been booked for a private party with no notice to their regular bowlers or to the public that it was closed until 4:30. No consecration for others.

Peyton Franklin

Monday's 8 to 11pm all you can bowl about 14$ you cant beat it!

Jane Wilson

Modern, clean, and lots of lanes. Decent parking lot. Went with friends on a Sat. from 4pm-6pm and it wasn't too crowded during that timeframe. Ordered "sweet potato tots" as a snack (tasty). Advice: 1. Bowl before dinner hour if you like a calmer, less crowded atmosphere. 2. Go with a group of people you enjoy (friends, co-workers, or church group) and cheer each other on. 3. If you really like bowling, invest in your own ball & shoes; it's worth it. 4. If you throw a gutter ball, do the gutter ball dance!

Karen Baber

Great place to bowl on a league or with the family

Marc Jones

Typical bowling alley. It tends to draw a large crowd in the evening but a fun place if you have the right people with you. The pool tables is expensive in my opinion at $15 p/hr to rent. The Long Island are pretty darn good, I will give them credit for that but it is over shadowed by the slow service. I still tend to have a fairly good time here. I think I’ll venture into the arcade section next time.

Melissa Adwell

Friendly atmosphere! Fun to do with the kids. Very clean inside

Michael Heyer

Kids had a blast. They have some good deals if you check their website for weeknight specials. Without the specials it can get really expensive to take the family.

Betty Shelhamer

Great place to take the grandsons when we come to Virginia to visit. This time two days. Both servers, Trevor M and Cheri O provided great service. We all had a great time and enjoyed the bowling alley food and drinks. We have been coming here for several years and have always left after a fun day with no complaints. Thank you.

Chuck Leber

Good time for family. A little pricey. Two games, four people, two shoe rentals $70

Benjamin Anderson

True 5 star rating. Very nice facility, food and drink order at each lane. Modern arcade. Very nice place.

Amanda Booze

Complaint: foods are expensive

JJim Franks

Love to bowl and close to home.

Him Harris

Great free pool

Hope Hargrove

Exciting Arcade area, clean throughout, friendly staff, adult cocktails, and awesome wings!!!

Ronald Banks

Love to go bowling this is the place it's niceee

Sherelle Pierce

This bowling alley has an arcade, pool tables, a bar area. Employees are great and it's a great, fun atmosphere. The only bad thing is the ball holder. They're all up front. They need to b spread out so they're near all of the lanes. There's plenty of room for them

Daniel Morgan

I have never paid $5 for shoe rental anywhere. The screens are half working. Over priced

Q Jay Duu

Great for families.

kinzie lynn

Me and my family love going there!! We never get tired of going! Food is amazing from my opinion, many drink options, fast service!!!

Crissy Corbin

Good place but don't go Wednesday evenings unless you're in a league. They needed every lane.

Eddie val

Good place to bowl, under renovation right now, looking good so far.

Elliott Broaddus

The staff were super nice! Everything seemed reasonably priced and there was a pretty good arcade. Enough games for a fun evening.

Dan Rieling

They seem short staffed during the day. Would have been 5 stars if the arcade there was at least 75% functional. A lot of the games had broken card readers or missing items to use them

Jeff Skrzycki

Get the groupon so worth it.

Michael Ankrom

Great atmosphere that caters to adults and children alike. Huge numbers of lanes mean the wait is never long, and a well stocked arcade with games for all ages means any wait you experience feels even shorter. Conventional concession stand food is a little on the pricey side, but also very tasty. The only negative I can think of is that the music was so loud that we couldn't hold a conversation once on the lanes. All communication is reduced to hand signals. May not be a good choice for noise sensitive individuals.

Damien Di Domenico

Fun but make sure you bring your credit card!

Hector Gonzalez

Loved the fact it was SMOKE-FREE and Kid-friendly

Margarita Davis

Diverse community of people and prices and food were great

Robert Valentine-Miller

Largest Bowling alley I have ever been to. Very modern

Beats by Big Ra

great place for groups family

Kirk Tower

Had a great time bowling with my wife and our son from Indianapolis Indiana. It was difficult finding a ball with large finger holes that wasn't too heavy to throw for this 58 year old guy with a 85 year old shoulder. :-) :-) my 30 year old stepson, 6 foot 5 220 lb muscular young man, had the same issue.

Cheryse Lawrence

Went for a birthday celebration. The food and drinks were AWESOME! Tracy was the absolute best!!!

Lateefah Lewis

a very good sport to enjoy during the summertime because it's indoors so you can be cool by also enjoying yourself.

Amanda Cramer

Great staff. Enjoyed my time there.

Leslie

They used to have way better bowling packages. Too expensive and over crowded now.

Jenn Ward

Had my daughters birthday party here. They had a great time. Only 4 stars because we spent 20 minutes of our 2 hour party waiting in line for shoe rentals. They need more staff on the weekends!

Kevin Garcia

Defenitely one of the coolest and the largest AMF I have been to. Very great and pleasant staff that took care of all our needs.

james Osborne

Price on games in arcade are a little high for kids to play..Nice place though..

Michael Arnold

Large facility, well staffed, lane well tended. Lane approach is wood, not synthetic. Scoring stations and monitors are updates and in good working order. Good pro shop. Nice pool hall and arcade both separate from lanes and each other.

Corey Johnson

Had a lot of fun, with my coworkers and the people next to our lane.

Sue Lawson

great place to take the kids to have a good time

richard scott

The best bowling alley I've ever been to. Outstanding service.

Danny Rusbasan

Great bowling alley with friendly staff. They always have weekday specials, and information on different leagues.

Darnell Butler

Hanover bowling alley, courteous and polite employees all around this facility. Clean keeping. Love this one

Stella Walker

Great place if you're just bowling but $5 for shoe rentals is a bit much from the price it used to be. If you're looking to eat and drink especially for a family I suggest you eat and drink before you go. The prices are extremely high and charging almost $4 for a bottle of water is ridiculous. This place use to be affordable for my family but it isn't anymore which is a shame.

Randi Tuck

Kidsfest is amazing for families

Stephanie Brown

Good friendly service. I was there for a kids party and the staff was so helpful. As soon as we asked for anything the gave us fast service.

Kristin Randolph

Great fun with family

Bentley Sanders

Nice place enjoyed playing a lil pool with a buddy of mine

Harvey Porter

My son had his Fourth Birthday Party there and it was great! Staff went above and beyond to make him happy and food was good too!

Heather Kromer

Very clean and good prices

Jeannine Alley

Awesome updates. Great deals all the time

Simon Newberry

Decent food and beer selection. Kept clean by friendly staff.

David Johnson

Nice bowling alley, great specials during the week. They have a new bar setup that is pretty nice and would actually be a decent spot to watch sports. Food is pretty good for bowling alley food.

Geri Jones

Nice, clean environment. Staff is always courteous and nice

Melina Baber

Had a great time!

Steve Zion

Awesome awesome bowling alley! 10/10 All around service, cleanliness, food and drinks, and of course fun factor. It’s literally attached the AMF HQ/Corporate Office’s which are next door. Upon walking in, the place was absolutely spotless, people were bowling and eating and just having tons of fun. Specifically I remember watching a gentlemen bowl a 255 when I was when I was strolling by which just happens to coincidentally be my all time high score which I thought was pretty cool. The place was extremely clean and definitely a place any bowler or event / Birthday parties should absolutely look at! There were also some billiards rooms in the back which were pretty cool.

Dee Block

Great family place also great late night date spot!

ashleigh gerber

Love the lanes, game room and pool tables.

Zane Ligjtsey

Great date night

Colby Jones

For arcade games, Dave and buster's is a better value. Pool rates are typical of most other nearby venues. For bowling, it may be typical of now but 3 games cost us (a couple) over $50 which is rediculous to me as my regular bowling alley charges by the lane and for shoes, not by the bowler per game and for shoes. Overall, not impressed with value or service but still had fun.

M. Prime

Great food and service, cute lane graphics, a little pricey but worth it for the little things. Had a blast!!

Angie Dawson

Had fun with our church
