Reviews of Strawberry Lanes (Bowling Alley)

David Sanchez

Laid back and fun

Praise RNGesus

I'm a frequent Riverside lanes customer and I decided to visit you guys tonight, I was highly dissatisfied with how the bowling alley is, the music wasn't the best. The lanes need to be updated, our original lane kept breaking down, so we couldn't bowl for 20 minutes. And the lady at the front counter didn't really care about what happened tonight. She was on her phone more times that I can count. If you guys want to get more customers update the place.

Great fun

Johny Kiern

Normal bowling ally. My biggest issue with this place was one of the workers; I went to the food counter to order a drink and there was an old man in the back of the kitchen making himself a sandwich and eating it purosefuly ignoring me. This was a bad first experience and it ruined the time I was there, I will not be coming back.

Crystal Frye

It was very quiet when we visited. Got on a lane right away. The staff was SUPER friendly! Lanes are well maintained. Very easy to use scoring system.

Esmé

Strawberry Lanes is a classic old bowling alley, it could definitely use an update. The food is okay, beer is cold, service at the front counter is not the best. A lot of the balls are chipped and pitted making them roll inaccurately. The price has gone up considerably since we first started coming, yet none of the other services have become better. It is good in a pinch but for the money and quality I would recommend going to another alley.

Keith Dubs

Old and run down. Could use a makeover. Cheaper than most alleys around.

James O'Hara

Large woman on the front desk is very very rude. Was looked at like I was a criminal when I asked for an open lane on a Saturday! Would find somewhere else to bowl for sure.

James Schmeck

Nice alley and atmosphere. Well maintained and has all the features for any skill level. Does have older equipment and could use an update

Monie Oh

Friendly service at good prices. A favorite for the locals!

Paula Rodriguez

Tried calling for a reservation for a birthday party and the lady was completely rude. Will not be going here ever again

Miguel Chavez

Very fun time and an old school theme

Hank Elinger

My 4 year old had a blast

Scott Clark

Expensive

Evan Osburn

They offer military discount and they bring food you order straight to your lane.

Tyler Fryberg

Fun and clean

Lulu C

Barb Welsh

Get my life to be Barbara Welcome

Kailei Hopkins

It was a blast and kid friendly

manny

Fun place

Shannon Petitclerc

The lady at the counter with long black curly hair, darker complexion, mid 30s has horrible customer service skills and is extremely rude to every customer who comes to the counter and treats customers as if they just offended her or ruined her day by asking the most simple of questions which are usually met with a offensive blank stare and a unexplained "nooo" with the look of "get out of my face your wasting my time". I don't understand how someone so rude to every customer and with the worst customers service skills I personally have ever seen still has a job. I wouldn't recommend someone going there if she's working but the rest of the alley is good and the lanes are nice and the rest of the employees are friendly. It would be better if they took reservations over the phone. Overall good place but counter lady is a cun+

Kayla P

Called to get our names on the list and the woman we spoke to did not say they don't put people on the list over the phone. Got there at the time we said we would and we weren't on the list. The employees were rude about it and said they do not put names on the list over the phone. Probably won't be returning to this place.

Austin Epstein

This place is truly awful. The balls are greasy and the management is truly awful. They won't cooroperate with you in any sort of way whatsoever. Don't waste your money at this establishment.

joshua ussery

Good time put a team together and check into game night

Ziyu Zhu

This place is old and dingy and everything looks like it needs an update. They need to accommodate a new bowling ramp because the ramp is unstable and shaky. It made the ball very inaccurate.

Chad Elsner

Fun place, cool atmosphere

Joel Johns

They have lot's of balls to finger

Mike Mantei

George at the front desk is very helpful, it kind of has an older feel to a community of bowling

Tony McAleer

Im not a league bowler but understand businesses must make a base revenue on regular business meaning league bowling so I dont get the complaints about it being busy a couple nights a week for that. We go bowling at least twice to three times weekly and it feels very much like being in a country town. Everyone is friendly, good choice of ball weights. They just ordered new shoes and its cheap fun for us. We are very average bowlers which makes competition with our children very enjoyable. A+ for effort. A solid local family business which we will continue to support. There are so few family entertainment options around these days. And they serve alcohol which can only improve my game.

Elijah McCoy

Great place to bowl. The environment is always a lot of fun.

April Cunningham

Bring noise canceling headphones to protect your ears. The older sound system and speakers pump out a ton of treble which can be irritating. The score keeping software is also a bit dated and basic compared to the newer bowling alleys. For example when you get a strike no special graphics to celebrate with you :( On a positive note the food service was very good!

Hiedi Linz

Every time we come here it's always easy and quick to get a lane. I always bring my little boy with me and he has a great time!

Ryan F

How can you not love the atmosphere of a bowling alley?

Beau Jorgensen

It's good for the low prices. All the equipment and furnishings could use an update, but everything seemed to be functioning well.

Patrick Burke

Monday night Double Ms league bowling is always a fun time.

Christy Lambert

Lanes are constantly in need of repair...pin machines are always dropping pins which is a pain in the but when bowling

Glenn Gidlof

Lane conditions are terrible and getting worse each week. Machine maintenance is poor at best. If there was another option in Marysville Strawberry lanes would be doomed.

Justin Staples

Like to bowl its there

Keely Jorgensen

An older bowling alley without all the bells and whistles (and added cost) of the newer alleys. We we're able to get a lane on a Saturday afternoon right away, which was amazing!

Kanwal Amin

Great place had fun

Monty 1

I hate to give this place a 2 out of 5. I used to come here all the time when I was younger and had alot of fun. But lately when ever I go the staff is always unpleasant and has a huge attitude. Quiet a few of the balls are chipped. It's sad to say but the only saving grace here is that the food ain't half bad.

Doug Davis

The lady at the front counter is terrible at customer service. I walked up and asked her if they had open lanes. She responded with a very unfriendly "No". Then just looked at me. I asked her when they might have one and she said "just wait ok". My simple questions were the most inconvenient thing to happen to her all day apparently. I've called a few times and came to realize I didn't catch her on an off day, she just has a horrible attitude all the time.

Lisa V

I can relate to alot of other reviews about the women, yes two big women, behind the main counter and one behind food counter. VERY RUDE AND NO CUST SERVICE SKILLS, HORRIBLE FOOD. And the balls are chipped pitted and probably dont roll accurately

Dean Winchester

Not coming here ever again unless with a child. When you suck at bowling and you don't like to lose, it really takes away all the fun when they refuse to put up the gutter rails. Left in a totally bad mood and don't plan on coming back anytime soon.

ARA

Great place for family time <3

Dallas Grewing

Called one week in advance, Reservation was never took. Called the day of, in the morning to make sure reservation was set. Showed up and didnt have my reservation. Then was informed it was a gambling session. At 830pm and kids obviously couldn't play being a gambling session. This is Marysville for you.

Shockfrost Volt

This place is inexpensive, and the atmosphere there is wonderful. The staff is helpful, and service is very quick.

Molly Hahn

Dated establishment but the employees were very polite and caring to our group.

Latisha Thompson

Great place for family fun and they also have a great na meeting there too one day a week!!

Dominique Galindo

Service was mediocre. Semi clean establishment. Decent for being a rural bowling alley.

fijiprasad

Fun place. Family loved it.

Kathy Mackey

Bowled with my grandkids and my sister from Alaska! Helpful staff. Fun was had by all!

Jeremiah Nusbaum

Staff was friendly, fellow bowlers were pleasant. Fair pricing. Decent food. Balls were pretty greasy and gross and the bathroom smelled terrible. Maybe a few scented urinal cakes and some whipes for the balls and they would be getting 5 stars.

Walt Ducoing

Fun place older...could use a remodel

Shaylynn Murphy

Super fun!

mellisa nelson

Super cheep, great fried food, looks exactly the same as it did 20 years ago. Definitely needs some remodeling done... Half the kids games are out of order. But it was a fun time and it was packed in there on a Sunday night.

Jeff Reed

Older lanes,but a fun place .could use better ventilation.

psychic/Medium Leslie

Fun, great people that work there, great family activity, you can e even go by yourself and practice. Love going there

Madeline Jones

Reasonable prices good people

Ivy Ryan

Cute little bowling alley

This bowling alley contains more lanes than Twin City Lanes in Stanwood, Washington. Has more bowling hours than Twin City Lanes.

Rebekah Killeffer

This was a great spot for a get together. Full bar and food service.

Lego lunatic

I've come here all my life nice home town feel great people and great prices

Leslie Slater

Fun place

jasonjcottle

A simple family fun place.

Liz Switzer

Small-town Bowling league fun!

Scott Sparling

Hard to tell what balls are public, and which are private, but maybe it was league night, and that's why so busy, not sure. They have liquor, but you wouldn't know from the menu. It's like, a secret, it seems. Lane seemed alright, though it seemed crowned, like, if you don't run down center, your ball will drastically drift to gutter. Once I found center it was all strikes, though.

James Taylor

Could use updating/remodel but it is still a really cool place to bowl.

CJ Rocks

Divey but staff was nice. No music or arcade. This place is great if you desire straight up bowling and bowling only. Great for older crowd. Handful of games for kids to play.

Joseph Vespucci

I like these lanes. Ball selection is a bit limited and coated in a lot of oil. Shoes are the typical very used bowling shoes. 20 lanes. Bumpers for ages 8 and younger. Seating is okay. Overall I like the bowling alley but it could use a make over. Stuffs a bit dated.

Debra Kennedy

Not enough bowling balls available and the ones that were there were very old and had clips and the ball return had troubles. Only 20 lanes. But when we went on Sunday 1:00 we got a lane . Desk very friendly

M

Clean, friendly service. Very busy on a Friday.

Caleb McLean

My boy and I played 3 games...he came close, but I won all three!!

Kyle Sanchez

Kids loved it

Decent small town bowling alley. Family owned since mid 1970s. Staff not exactly top notch but typical for a bowling alley I suppose.

Devon Rose

Staff is mean. Food is delicious. Lanes always have malfunctions.

Ed Gulch

The front desk is very unpleasant to talk to. And they lie about their wait times and the availability of the lanes.

Tiffany Mathis

Pizza is not very good here. They wont let you bring in outside food.

Daniel Betancourt

Not a lot of lanes but overall good condition equipment and quick service. I didn't try any food but they offered typical bowling alley food. Prices are competitive and they offer various discounts.

wyatt dibley

6 people 2 hours of fun 39.00.

Matthew Kyzar

Family friendly. Good times.

Jen Knudson

wrong she size tooo expennsize

Chad Smith

First the lady that took our orders gave us attitude and smart remarks for every question, then when we got our 10 dollar burger and sandwiches it came with 10 fries on each plate which is not even a full potato. They man in the kitchen gave attitude after asking for more but still gave us a small fry to make up for it. My brother asked the same lady that gave us attitude earlier if they had free refills and instead of simply answering yes or no, she asked him how much he paid for the soda, he answered, then she said “Well there you go” Coming from a former Waiter, this service was unacceptable. The lady with white hair and the man in the kitchen do not seem happy there and should move on to something else or not take it out on customers. The other two employees that were there weren’t to bad which is why I’m giving it 3 stars

Jess T

A great place to just have a good time. And their fries and tartar sauce are a must.

Luke Hansen

The lady at the cash register was very rude, when asked if we could have a lane on the end because we had a rather large group and didnt want to bother others, she just said nope in a rude tone.

Cari Stevens

Child- friendly, special abilities-friendly.

teressa hess

Fun place not too busy good prices

Literally God

Lanes had an incredibly high friction and the shoes were some of the worst I've had

Colette FroggyStylez4Real

Always been one of our family favorites...

Jasonmnzz Gould

Good good beer garden and great races

Dpk9

Very simple bowling place, cozy and the food is not terrible, I had a great time

Alex Hendrick

Great family experience

Navariii

The place was extremely messy, chaotic , and not to mention very unorganized.My family and I were kept waiting for nearly an hour. We decided to make the best of the situation munching on nachos , and fries while we were waiting for a lane to open. (Server guy was very nice ) We were added to the waiting list by the cashier woman since the rest of the lanes were supposedly “closed”. We noticed that nearly half of the bowling lanes were shut down and being unused while they were clearly not out of order. When we asked about this they kept saying they were cleaning up the lanes (no one was cleaning at the time ) After waiting for nearly an hour we decided to go home. It’s worth the extra time to go to Everett or Lynnwood.

Roman Doroshchuk

Unprofessional employees who like about the wait time and don't give straight answers

Taz Alsup

Just ate there didn't play

Nicole Davis

Fun place with amazing owners!

John Aaenson

Small house to bowl not a good place to bowl either

Susan Fisher

Family oriented

Levi Klein

Fun local alley. Could use some updates but the price is fair

marie fink

So much family fun.

Mariesa Talamayan

Very old outdated bowling alley that doesn’t have proper chairs and it even comes with complimentary boogers on the side! They have a young face in the front, taking care of the lanes/shoes and keep the old school judgmental folks in the concessions. Service was slower than a turtle, took me a full 30 minutes just to order. I’m surprised I even got my food, I thought I was going to be rejected by the stuck up old man wearing a “make America great again” hat based on the way I looked

Robin Page

Had fun with Wal-Mart employees bowling

Bailey Flint

The customer service here is the absolute worst compared to any other alley, or really any other place I’ve been to. Don’t come here unless you want to have people look at you weird or make you feel bad for coming here. Me and my boyfriend hate coming here but it’s the only alley in marysville. Sigh

August Murphy

Awesome place, great place for bowling.

Jen Troupe

Friendly environment. Usually lanes open

Jacqueline Kehoe

Savannah Glasco

Tammy Barstad

Its always cold inside like a cave .

PrincessGliavoc

Pizza was not the best. Bowling was fun.

KayLee Gervasi

Bad service and very dirty. :(

Joseph Land

Your fairly classic old bowling alley. Food is ok and cheap, beer is cold, and service at the front counter is terrible. But that being said, it's a bowling alley and I don't expect service, but open lanes.

Samantha Bond

Family owned and run. Just started my 4th bowling league year after never really bowling at all. The people are great, and very helpful.

Caleb Darrow

Went to get a lane and when we asked the server lady was very rude about any questions asked and always had a snarky attitude.

Richard Fuller

This older and smaller bowling alley is still goin! There's a kitchen that has pizza along with fries and tots along with beer and drinks as well. There's even a small event room that works for partys. The actual alleys are still holding up and there's a digital scoring system. Plenty of parking available.

Trisha Bohling

Always a fun local place to have fun, either on date night or family night! We love the people and more importantly the food.

Carolina Pineda

Fun time for a Sunday night adventure.

manuel evans

Old and the food sucks. Service was good.

Courtney Young

It was fun ig

Cherie Wasmund

Good food... Great fun

James Warren

You can expect a long wait on the weekends, but they have great food, the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Sue Mommy

Felt out of place. A friend and i went in... The only two colored folks in the place... Went to get a labe and some shoes... White male was rude... Wouldnt give us eye contact and brushed off any questions we had pertaining to the place. It was our first time... And our last. We love bowling.

Doug Hanson

Sadly the place is in poor condition. But most the bowling alley's in the Snohomish County area aren't very nice. On top of that our lane must have messed up on us 10-15 times during our game (5 total players). Awarding strikes when there wasn't, not reading pins that were knocked down or reading pins what weren't. Totally skipping a players frame (but for some reason went back to that frame during the 10th frame). Having to adjust the score at least 4 times. Press the lane reset button at least 6 times. But only actually had to call for service once. Food, burger dip, was actually good. Definitely won't be bowling here with the kids again.

Sarah Dacruz

Friendly service good pricing good food
