Reviews of AMF Norfolk Lanes (Bowling Alley)

Alvinia Betancourt

We had a great time would go anytime food was a bit pricey but it was good

Peter Toohey

Great service. Good prices. Definitely enjoyed our league up here.

bubbavi

Great place for fun with the children.

K McGee

Overpriced food and the balls were horrible! They were either to small or to large and not organized. You have to walk all over the bowling alley to find different size balls. Would it hurt to neatly organize them against the wall? And again don't order food from here! For two adults and two kids it was $55 for food and $67 for two games & shoes!

Wanda Turner

Had my grandsons 5th birthday party and the service from our hostess was horrible.

Chrissy Crespo

Walter Harrell

Had a good and enjoyable time there last Sunday evening..

the slowness begins here

I live to go bowling here I had a b-day party here

Aaron McClellland

Fine for playing just for fun, if you looking to be competitive, the lanes are oiled with a uniform pattern

Cathy Allen

We had a blast. The pizza was delicious and the service was great. Bathrooms were clean also. Coupon from groupon made it affordable.

Dana Andrews

andrea thornton

Fun. Clean. Nice staff. Staff manager was on point

Stephanie Whitaker

Maybe next time it'll be better

Christopher Kois

We bowl league here on Tuesday nights. The staff is top notch. Love this place!

Sharon James

Had a great bowling experience, ran out of wings for a party of 8, still had enough of the other food choices so I don't think that enough portion was offered.

Michelle Ford

Bring your own music. Good prices and the staff was cool.

Joshua Warren

Alot of fun! Nice lanes!

Jason Norris

Haven't been since the renovation but now it looks really good plus the food is fairly good

Breyana Loyd

Had a lot of fun kids enjoyed it.

Charles El

The Norfolk lanes are pretty good. As I watch other bowlers, they seem to feel positive about the feedback the lanes give. I feel more confident that my bowling ball will move down the lane with a consistent motion. For novice like myself, this means when I throw my bowling ball I can trust that the lanes allows my bowling ball to read the lane evenly.

Kashien Latham

Everything worked with no glitches. Food was good

Jasmine Smith

I had a nice time but the food was a little hard especially the regular wings.

shirley baker

Lanes were dark couldn't see the arrows but still had a good time .Staff was great,Ariel.

Bobby Bouche

Nice place just too pricey

Chaun Hauer

It was nice. Needs to update there systems. Bumpers for all or none. Wish they could break it down by bowler

Anu Kiss

Went here on Tuesday for $2 bowling. What they don’t tell you is that shoe rental is $4 & only tacos and watered down Long Islands are $2.12. Okay place but it smelled like old bus seats and the music wasn’t loud enough to hear and it wasn’t anything anyone really wanted to hear. Other than that we had fun. P.S. DO NOT let them run a tab. Pay as you go so you can keep up with the total.

Richard Scavone

Great staff and a lot of fun. Seldom is there waiting with 60 lanes available (one of the largest centers on the east coast!). Fall bowling leagues get a little busy, especially on Saturday when they host the largest league on the east coast (300 bowlers). Plenty of specials throughout the week and the food will make you fat! The center it's being updated, slowly, but surely.

Patrice Anderson

Very fun but very under staffed waited forever to get our shoes and to order food.

Elijah Joseph

Really had a blast here so fun and family friendly

Chiquita Mercer

The staff and atmosphere were great. Sad to say that I can't say the same about the food.

Deane Rogers

The food is a little pricey but overall it a good time!!!

Robert Martin

Need better employees and managers

Nathan Vaden

Great place for family fun bowling and the food is real good to.

Kam Steele

The place was packed the night I visited, the people were very friendly, staff was jovial and attentive.

Dominic Dascola

The staff here was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We had 7 people and I wanted to set up two lanes in a league format so that we could alternate lanes. A lot of bowling alleys give me a hard time about this for open bowling, but the attendant on staff had no problem accommodating this request. She even set us up for five minutes of warm up, which I asked about, and most places would say no to that also. Conclusively, I thought the lane conditions were very good, which is more important for me as an avid bowler, more than it is for most of the people I was bowling with. Just an excellent experience for all of us! Thanks!

Matthew Wright

Went for a birthday party, a good time was had by all.

David Conn

Food and drink service could improve alot

T. Gafford

I attended a military ceremony there. Nice wide open space for such an event. And they had discount prices for pizza & such for these types of events. After the ceremony folks bowled & hung out for a while. The place was clean & the service was excellent.

Daphne Lucas-Hagood

One of my favorite places to hang out with friends! I love the flatbread pizza....YUMMY!

Jim Brooks

Decent lanes and equipment, however I do not recommend joining a league here. I joined a 9-pin no-two league that promised a “free” ball and pizza at the end of the league (by free I mean I paid an extra fee each week). It’s been almost three months since the league ended and I still haven’t received my ball. Also, the free pizza at the end of the league was one small slice. Just seemed very dishonest and not well organized.

Xavier Drake

Decent place to chill and bowl. Don't order any drinks though. No alcohol in them at all.

joshua greenslade

Bowling is fun. I participate in leagues there.

Kylie Scott

I had my my son's birthday party there and it was such an amazing time! The staff was friendly and super helpful. I would do it a million times over!!

Harry Skaggs

The only place to go to bowl in Norfolk.

Arie Nightmoon

Very fun atmosphere!! Great drinks and the nachos were super yummy!

Raye Harville

Clean, well lit, friendly staff, and the most variety in bowling ball weights I've seen in one place! Their fries are really good, too! Our lane had a curve in it, but we didn't let that stop our fun. This summer they have $50 adult passes for daily bowling. You bet your bottom we're doing that!

Justin Hudson

Shoes were hit or miss for sizes, some worn out and felt like socks. The fries were really good but overly salted for most people. I myself thought they were good but I noticed the salt. The lanes are 2 steps down from the tables. There's no seats at bowling level. You have to take 2 steps down then another up to bowl. Something to keep mindful of with children or the less mobile. It was $38 for for 2 adults and a child, 1 game a piece per adult and 2 for the child. I don't frequent bowling alleys but seemed steep on top of food and drinks being separate.

David Benjamin

I've been to more, updated bowling alleys. This place is really old school, can't tell if they made recent investments or not. People & family friendly definitely.

Maureen L

Expensive, some staff are nice and there is one person rude. Not sure why he is that way working with the public. Food is really good. As bowling alleys go a little pricy. Leagues are good.

Alexandria Hardge

Amazing staff everyone was so very helpful I will be back

Jeremiah Hollaway

Good plays but need more people to serve customers

Glenn Covington

Never again on a saturday spent $91, week day it is.......lol

Brian Beasley

Good place to go

Charles Tew jr

Pulled my hamstring, lol, spent the afternoon with my son his wife and grandchild, bowled had pizza and most of all had fun. Ty AMF !

Thomas Cunrod

Great service, great time, good food, military discount, a great saturday afternoon.

matt woods

The lanes with lower number are worst lanes...floor warped and they keep the light off on that end...i guest they keep good lanes for the leagues...I like the up grades they have made...I am not a bad bowler and I like my score to be right the lanes are terrible...

Brian Simmons

Nice lanes. Nice alley.

E Detomaso

Great place to meet great closet guys

Joseph W

Clean. So clean. Never been in such a clean bowling ally. The crowd was cool and the staff was super accommodating and kind. Also, no problems getting kid bumpers and a ramp set up for my three year old. That same three year old is now completely obsessed with bowling. Win-Win.

Reginald Robinson

Crowded lot of people was their service kind of slow but it was still good

Premium Gold

Workers are always respectful and if you ask for help they always come as quick as they can

Karl Fowler

Large clean and the prices are good

Sassy Chasse

It's Bowling, It's Fun! The food and drinks are over priced for the quality and the customer service was mediocre at best. There is plenty of parking, they offer group bowling prices as well as birthday parties. The establish mental is clean and the atmosphere is fun.

Arlene Cintron

Kids had a great time. Awesome Atmosphere

Marva Parker

This location is much cleaner than the Indian River location.

Matthew Wainscott

Service for food/drinks wasn't good. Went to counter, because no one came to our table. 4 people looked at me, but didn't try to take my order. Finally, a server took order. Took 40 min to get boneless wings, and they were cold when we got them. Sucks that this is the closest bowling alley to my house.

Michael Johnson

Great place to bowl and watch sports while enjoying a alcoholic drink upon request.

Russell Allsbrook

Rude staff and poor service. I am a retired and disabled Vet, when asked if military discounts were available I was told I had to be active duty.

Michael Kreiselman

Great family friendly atmosphere and nice staff too!

Matthew Guidry

I had a great time bowling. The only issue I had was trying to find a bowling ball with finger holes that were big enough. It seemed like they were all made for children or people with small hands.

joshua watters

Prices weren't too bad. They offer a decent military discount. Beers were a little bit stale and the place has seen better days but it's charming enough for a bowling alley. Food wasn't life changing but it was serviceable bowling alley food.

Daniel Waters

Had a great time. Didn't order food so can't judge that. Staff was helpful.

Steve

Just bowling. No extra stuff besides 2 pool tables. Food and drink is overpriced for quality you get. Liquor is definately watered down by like half.

Justin Coultman

Had a great time

Sasha White

We celebrate our 3 years anniversary yes it was wonderful

Tarahz Robinson

Fun to do with family lots of competition happens

Paul H.

Bowling was fine, but when we ordered food it took an extremely long time to deliver (especially for just wings and a drink). Still an overall good experience. Bathroom was slightly unclean, but not in terrible condition. The sauce for the wings was also not very well applied (more on the container than the wings themselves).

James Carroll

Food service was pretty slow, and super overpriced. Bowling is cool though

Charlene Mara

Needs a little bit of renovation. Great overall.

Shawn White

The bartender like 5 year ago was cute.

Honey Monroe

Great fellowship with great friends

Rebecca Jones

My son had his birthday party here and we were very pleased with the organization, communication and customer service. Highly recommend!

Cynthia Reed

Great fun bowling

Jayda Sewell

Terrible service and couldn’t know the price until after we play which was unexceptionable.

Renee Holley-Taylor

This was my 1st time going to bowl It was AMAZING every one was Awesome I would highly recommend this place Thank you My grand enjoyed his self

Jason Perez

I go to the place a lot with my friends and we always have a blast. They have specials each day like monday mayham, college night, and some others that i cant think of at the moment, but none the less its a good atmosphere and foods decent.

Daniel Baker

Best time to go is Sunday evening. Or some sort of league. If you're going just to bowl at some random point of the week, you'll be paying more than if you just join a league or play Sunday night.

Jay Harris

Nice atmosphere

Daniel Anderson

Clean. Super friendly staff. (My favorite waitresses are Ariel, Rebecca and Hannah) Great times. Check it out.

Travis G

Nice bowling location, with some good deals on food and drink if you come at the right time. Only downside? Even though the meals look decent size, you'll still be hungry after eating a meal there for some reason, so you'll end up eating some extra appetizers too.

Kaylee Boynton

It's fun! What can I say
