    One of the best remaining duckpin houses and a Baltimore institution. The lanes were completely remodeled not that long ago and the staff is super friendly. The only downside is that due to the age of the equipment behind the scenes you will experience multiple pinsetter failures that may cause you to play musical chairs as you are shuffled from one lane to the next while the staff rushes to fix any issues. The staff is apologetic and considering the age of the equipment and the fact that no new parts are being manufactured, any slight inconvenience is excusable. Open bowling is pricey at $30.00 an hour which includes shoes, so keep an eye out for specials and events that help curb the cost. All being said and done, this is a fantastic duckpin house and worth a visit. The owners and management do a fantastic job at ensuring their guests have a great time.

    This place is a classic. Chill, good price for group bowling, and decent duckpin bowling. Only complaint is that the shoes are really terrible and falling apart..

    Classic vintage Bowling alley! Plenty of lanes for multiple groups to go for strikes! Feeling the arcade, as well. It's a fun spot for fun with family and friends. Located in the middle of a shopping center, it's a great gem in the community!

    This place is awesome! Our only regret? We didn't find it sooner. The staff are super nice and friendly. The prices are right. It's all duckpin bowling, a Baltimore original. It's a super chill but fun environment. Meaning, the people who come here seem to be chill and that makes it even more fun. The mix of music is pretty diverse for a public place. It's clean too. Check it out. They have specials often through out the week and weekend. Love this place.

    I would love to give this place a negative score to match this negative review! My cousin chose this place for a birthday party and I showed up late because of thunderstorms, so I wanted to extend the lane. The white man gave me the nastiest look so I decided to step aside check out the arcade wait and see if someone else would come so I can get help from someone else, immediately a white woman came up and this man smiled and asked can he help she told him she wants to extend the lane he smile said no problem and powered it up. I said to him that’s what I was coming to ask you about myself he said to me so so bluntly “$30”! I said oh wow u just did it for her I thought it was free and he said to me mattarfactly “she’s the family of my employee” to which I laughed and walked away because this white woman is the wife of my first cousin activating the lane I came to inquire about 😂😂😂😂 the man I paid $1.50 for a bottle water very nasty as well!! This place is not African American friendly at all please before u pay your money pay a visit and see if u wanna spend ya money with these hateful people!!! #BLM

    So I go there on a friday at 6:00pm and they say we only have 1 lane open and we already have someone on the waiting list, so I say okay I'll WAIT around and wait until they are done so I say may I get put on waiting list. NO we dont do that, that's like taking a reservation and we dont do that. THEN HOW THE HELL IS SOMEONE ON A WAITING LIST. my 3 year old daughter was so heart broken, I even took a bus to get here. But is there a sign on there door that's says this, NO I've been coming here since I was a kid no wonder why yall went out of business. I WILL NEVER COME HERE AGAIN . WOULD RECOMMEND ANYWHERE BUT HERE

    This place re as really gets 2.5 stars. The cost is $20 for 1 hour of bowling on 1 lane. Shoes are $2. The equipment is old and you must reset each round of game on your own. The employees are polite. The atmosphere ok. The bathrooms clean. We didnt get any food ! I would check out other alleys before coming back.

    Our family really enjoys coming here on Saturdays for Youth League. The people are so friendly here and it is very clean. They have everything you need to bowl with. There is some step coming into the building.

    Nice duckpin center. They have a Friday special where you pay $17 per person for 2 hours of bowling. So, for $34 we got the lane and shoes Quite a deal as compared to other bowling centers. Staff was very nice and interactive. Going to try to get our family together for some fun times.

    We loved this place to play. Sometimes they have discounts. It is always recommended to call them beforehand by phone to make sure they have bowling lanes available.
