👍 Westside at it's best! Cool dive bar. Very diverse crowd. As far as bowling, just use house ball's. The lanes could use oil!!!!! I'm an avid bowler and wish they would oil the lanes. Will definitely be going back. For the music and drinks! People often mention bowling, great, time, good, pizza, lanes, drinks, wings, nice,

Went there once and had great time, good pizza, Hawaiian pizza had pretty cheap toppings tho. Tonight we ordered some pizzas and wings for to go…., I don’t what happened to the place within a week but this pizza is soft, way undercooked, the meatballs topping…I can’t even put my words together(considering I’ve got that pizza before and that not what their meatballs looked like lol) The wings were overly soggy, just threw them out, medium sauce overloaded with curry. Not sure what to make of the place. Such opposite experience.

Everyone really enjoyed this place. I appreciated the vegan options that was had and I do look forward to going again. I did have the mashed cauliflower but honestly that's my only complaint. It was pretty un seasoned and flavorless.

Update: food is amazing!!! Definitely an awesome place to go to. The ambiance very different and welcoming. Plenty of things to do between bowling, pool, and of course drink and eat. Watch football with your friends. Definitely a must stop in.... Put it on the list folks. Definitely try their brew. They do a great job with it.... Update ... Nothing to tell. Still good results....

Really cool place. Glad to see it back after all these years and in much better shape. The outdoor bar is really nice, and the inside seems nice too though I didn't spend much time inside. Staff were very friendly. They also had dollar pizza slices, so you can't go wrong there.

I was so amazed 995 for 10 chicken wings everywhere else is like 16 17 dollars for chicken wings for 10 and a good the funny thing is they only have two lanes open all the other ones are broken but it's a great place to have a couple drinks and enjoy your time with your friends and family I love that they have a karaoke section of the bar and the outside open bar

I love the outside bar. Billy is an awesome bartender. And the steak sandwich was probably the best "philly" I've ever had. It smelled so good that after I got mine, billy ordered one. Wish they had more lanes open, but seems to be one open every time I have gone.

From Day1 of opening till now the food has been mediocre. The service just keeps getting worse and worse unless you like a neglectful, rude and snotty bartender. Filthy bathrooms and the parking lot might cause underbody damage on your vechile. Such a shame that the management has allowed what could've been a great place great turn into another neighborhood dump.

Phoenix. It's a everyday hangout bar inside and outside for you smokers.... with a bowling alley. But the bowling alley is under construction at this time but will open soon.. Mean while the pizza is very tasty,, chicken wings,, meat balls,, Nachos with cheese,,, etc.. then on Friday and Saturday they have karaoke night.. so if you can carry a note come by and drop some singing on the crowd. :)..

Great environment, cheap drinks($5 ipa and house tequila)! Great service from the bar at the bowling lane!!!!!!Lots of balls to choose from and great background about the building for the past 100 years!!! Will be a regular sport now!!! Highly recommend!!!

Came here for bowling and bar date night. Finding it was a little confusing since you have to drive around back to get to the front. The food was very good and a big serving so if you think you’ll get a small basket of nachos think again. The drinks were nice and went bowling. Unfortunately our lane kept messing up and stopped halfway through. The staff did offer us a new lane once the other party (who were finishing up) left but we were so tired anyways. Very nice atmosphere.

I had a party planned here for 15 people in July. They called me 24 hours beforehand to cancel saying they didn’t have any lanes working. They just said sorry nothing we can do. They did not offer to move it to the bar or compensate in any way. I had to scramble on a Sunday night to find a new location to host for 15 people in under 24 hours notice for a surprise party. Top golf rescued us.

Sammy is amazing! As renovations are happening, there is a place to chill after work and unwind! Great drink selection and Tap Beers. Dragons milk and Voo doo ranger were our selection today!

The guy bartender was nice and friendly, and the drinks were good a little pricey but not awful! The downside is that they have no restroom 😪

I went late night by myself because I was starving and everywhere else nearby was closed. I just so happened to stumble up on a .75 wing weds! I relocated about a month ago from Va and when I walked in this spot I felt like I was back home. It was really cute and cozy and I had a super dope bartender name Kat. The wings were delicious. Definitely going back!

I’ve had my birthday party here the last 3 years and every time my friends and I have a wonderful time! Between bowling, karaoke, and pool, you definitely won’t get bored! The staff are always friendly and helpful! Sami, Bill, Victoria, and Lou are great! Thank you so much for always taking care of me and my friends!

I just am not that big of a fan of the place. Shots are watered down and the prices for them are outrageous! The bowling alley sucks. Let's just be real lol. The pizza is ALWAYS good.

Friendly staff great atmosphere. Several separate rooms/ areas with lots of and amazing unexpected taxidermy. lots of wood. Bison and moose. Fun time. A wide assortment of people but all smiling. Kareoke room was cute. Restroom were clean and supplied. Some very talented singers. Fast moving bar tender.

Had a great time tonight, nice drinks and decent snacks. We had the chance to bowl after waiting for another party to wrap up their game. Really cool place to hang and I’d love to come back in, I do hope they put the work into getting the rest of the lanes operational in the future. I think this place deserves more attention but it could use some work to get back to a former glory.
