AMF South Hills Lanes: what do users think?
Brad Carey: Per their website, a reservation is $398 (before taxes) for seven people for two hours. This includes required food/drink credits. What a joke!
Victor Cedeno: Great family place, staff was friendly, and very accommodating to large groups.
Carriebella Campbell: Friendly and helpful staff. Always clean, good air conditioning. We like to go to play the arcade games even more than the bowling! Halo, motorcycle and race car games are a hit, also air hockey and hoops shoot. Wednesday is half price games!
Cathy PIERCE: Family friendly
Patricia Strout: Smooth lanes, plenty of space, nice employees
Fayvenn: Bowling and a few arcade games.
sylvia barnes: Beat bowling qlley ever!!!!
Andrei Smith: Pretty basic but we had fun...
kayla best: I love it here I go all the time with my bf Kri
Tapasya Syal: Today we did a birthday celebration at Bowlero. I had booked for the event online through a smooth process. I took a package which included unlimited drinks, 2 slices of pizza, shoes, bowling lanes for 1.5 hours, 5$ gift certificate and arcade card with 20 pt each. We took our own cake and decorating balloons. Bowlero provided us with the plates, spoons, paper napkins, knife and cake spatula. Event manager came multiple times to check on us. Pizza was served exactly on time and it tasted good. After bowling and pizza, kids went to the arcade and had a gala time.. All the kids enjoyed a lot. It was a wonderful celebration. Big big Thumbs up for Bowlero!!! Thank you team Bowlero.
Manny Goti: Most underrated bowling alley. Great, well maintained lanes plus a full bar and good music. Unassuming on the outside but a great time.
Jane Louder: Had a great time at this place! Memorial weekend was a washout so we went here. Great service, great food, clean and fun atmosphere. Highly recommend
Rachel Atkin: Very unimpressed with the atmosphere, the price, and the salespeople trying to get you to download the gaming app as you’re trying to play. The “corporate playlist” of music videos playing over the lanes is also completely inappropriate and they won’t turn them off, even when we asked. There are way better bowling alleys around, skip this one.
Rod H: A modern bowling alley, complete with loud music, auto-scoring, hints, etc.My main complaint is the lack of light on the lanes. You can't see the aiming marks on the lanes.I don't know if it was the lane surface or the condition of my shoes, but I got no slide on delivery. Maybe I just need new shoes...
Zach Suelflow: The guy working the snack booth was very nice. 10/10
IBRA IQ: I was notified the prices only 7.99 $ for one person, they detected around 17.99 $
Amanda K: Went on a Friday night and it was like 10 per game and 5 per shoe rental. My boyfriend and i played the air hockey table. Friendly staff tho.
Patrice Co: Really use bathrooms not in service? People have to use a portable toilet OUTSIDE! This place is a joke
Hope Nicyper-Meryman: Fantastic staff and amazing bowling atmosphere
Sriram Vellore: Nice for an evening with friends, family.Theater system needs to be upgraded.
M H: Fun times!

Penny Lanes: what do users think?
Latasha Wilson: They more staff, happy staff and everything I wanted to order they didn't have. People were waiting in lines forever and noone never came they lost alot of money that day.
Natalia Reznikov: Kuron gave us excellent customer service. Had a great time celebrating a birthday at this location.
J “Qirkula” Q: Fun fun
Jeffrey Wolfe: What a fun place to spend time with family and friends! We only bowled, but everyone had a great time! The score screens are easy to use and edit, the equipment is well kept, and the facilities are very clean. The lanes have a great set up for group interaction and a great place for holding drinks and food that is out of the way of bowling, but easily accessible. The personnel were extremely helpful and responsive. Amazingly, the food was really good. I'd have given them a 5-star but we had a few technical glitches with the scoreboard/lanes and the staff was a little short-handed so check-in/scoreboard help was slow. I expect that they will be able to correct those soon. We will DEFINITELY go back for bowling and also try out the mini-golf, arcade, and theater!
Brandy Sanders: The 2 lanes they assigned to us had greasy finger marks ALL over the bench seats & table. I asked up at the counter if they could wipe them down. They came while I stepped away from the lanes. My daughter said they only wiped the table. The seats were still smeared with greasiness.
Sue Kim: Our kids had a blast bowling and playing arcades here. The place was clean, and their spring break specials ($9 for 1 game of bowling and a $10 arcade card) was a great deal! Their staff Shamir and Jamir were very helpful and friendly as well. Perfect place for kids’ birthday parties!
James Wong (CommunityMGR): Great fun for the family. Lots of things to do for both the adults and the kiddos. Definitely a cool place for a get together or Birthday party.
Curtis Moseley: Penny lanes is an awesome place to go and have fun for all ages. We did bowling and had some good food too. Then went to play the video games. The grand kids and adults had fun. There's a movie theater also.
Twitter Xo: horrible service,out of food,7$ water bottles all around un-enjoyable experience
Bhavani S: One of the nice for family /friends outing enjoyed playing bowling.Nice staff
Dhwanil Shah: Good place to bowl. The staff is very welcoming. The arcade does not have a lot of options but is still worth checking out. Amora was very welcoming and helpful.
Susan H: This was our 2nd bday party held at Penny Lanes. It is an easy event for the parents as the staff handle it all. Kids bowl, eat, play games and you're done! Brandin was great! He checked in with us often for drink refills or anything else we needed. Loved the big screens and booths. Held our party of 14 perfectly!
Sudheer A: I tried to enquire about the lanes availability & pricing. Customer care is really bad. Either they don’t pickup phones nor give proper information. We did try to look at website and tried to ask more questions. Answer I got from staff was- check website you have everything there.
Allie Cat: As an avid bowler I wasn't expecting much from these lanes but what I found was even worse than expected. These were some of the worst lanes I've ever bowled on and even the bartender knew it when he made the comment that they hadn't been cleaned and oiled in a month... Don't come here unless you are waiting for a movie to start next door
Carm Mc (Cam): Located inside of Paragon Theater. Haven't bowled there yet but have a great atmosphere. Also, a lot of arcade games.
Hamza Khan: We always have a good time here. I recently did a birthday party here our host was amazing. Everyone had so much fund.
saurabh dwivedi: Awesome experience.. we organized our kid birthday party... our host Brinden was wonderful.. very courteous and accommodating our requests!! Kids had great experience from bowling to good food!! Thanks to Will also for arranging the lovely party for my kid and his friends. Appreciate your efforts team!!
Renee Rosales: Took my grandkids here. Had a really fun time. Employees were really great and patient with them when it came time too spend the tickets. The arcade is smaller but had enough games to keep them busy & play enough games. Had lunch and thought the food was good too. They can't wait to go back
Melissa Chapman: Recently had my daughter's 7yr birthday party at Penny Lanes Cary. It was a fantastic experience. Will W. was amazing helping me plan for this party and he and his staff made it go without a hitch.When we arrived to set up, the staff was helpful and attentive, they already had the table out for us, and the lanes ready to go. They helped me to determined the best time for bringing the food out, and ensure that it was there was the time was right. The made sure to check up on the drinks and ensured that we had everything we needed.The party consisted of bowling (with shoe rentals), pizza and drinks, and arcade time. The kids had a blast. The timing was perfect. The staff was amazing! This was the best party we have had by far and will do it again next year! I highly recommend if you are looking to through a party, this is the place to come, you won't be disappointed.
Mike Mike: First i want to thank Jo for bringing us our food &coming back to give us refills & silverware & being such a nice girl! The bowling area was very clean & affordable price!
Karina Limon: I had so much fun here! The food came fast and the servers are very nice, Jo was great! Would definitely recommend

AMF Pleasant Valley Lanes: what do users think?
Joe Sherwood: People were kind and helpful. Place was clean.
Tato Piffery: Have a blast every time I'm there
Jaja Turner: I just love this place! The manager, J'Naya, was so kind and very helpful! I will be going back very soon!
Dana Arias: Nothing to see my son gave him an allergy reaction and food poisoning from this place they didn't care at all their response was that child is sleepy and they turned their backs 👎
Phạm Quang Trường: Game good
Sinnikka Smith: Fun place to bowl
Don Dickey: The unlimited bowling is a good price. Restrooms aren't the cleanest and they're not the most attentive at the food desk
Marjorie Harrell: Great place
Sharika Strickland: We went when there was a tournament going on, we were able to get a lane as they were finishing up, clean place and friendly staff.
Flulikesymptom5: Overall this place is pretty solid. Lanes are in good shape and when my wife and I went it was not extremely busy, which I really liked.
Kelly Umstead: Bowling is good, food is typical for a bowling alley. but good options. They do have a bar which looks nice but we didn’t utilize it. Arcade looks bigger online and a few games didn’t work but overall I’d come back.
raj m: Good experience
Stephanie Johnson Strickland: Nice family friendly environment for everyone
Jamie Stanley: Just alot of fun and I always end up meeting very cool people bowling next to me. End up making friends almost every time I go.
Thomas Gralinski: Rude employees who enjoy yelling at 5 year olds instead of explaining a minor mistake to the parent. But will allow teenagers in the next lane to do the same behavior while also walking in and out of our lanes.
Kim Phifer: Very clean, great experience!
Danielle Solari: DO NOT BOOK ONLINE!!! This goes through a separate company and if anything goes wrong you have to deal with them to get reimbursed. We spent a ridiculous amount of money for a birthday party and one lane had mechanical issues the whole night. When booking online you had to get a food and beverage credit for each person and it was loaded on a gift card. When using the gift card the staff complained about us using it. When we left the manager told us we had to deal with the separate company to get any kind of refund and dealing with them has been miserable. I was given a $78 credit which doesn't even cover two of the bowlers on the lane that had 5 people that the lane kept having issues. When we reach out they also said "we were glad we were able to resolve the issues with the lane quickly" but that wasn't the case. All in all, I would never go to this location again and I would DEFINITELY not recommend booking online. Horrible experience.
Justin Hill: Kinda quiet for cosmic bowling but not slam packed so it was enjoyable
Jonathan: Slight technical issues with lanes when visiting, but staff fixed everything quickly and efficiently!
Montrell B: Awesome experience
Neha Patel: Excellent quality lanes, spacious, clean, fun for the entire family, or couples who want to bowl and have adult beverages too. Some days and nights there are affordable deals so check out the website.

Buffaloe Lanes South Family Bowling Center: what do users think?
Nathan Block: Always have a great experience here. The staff is awesome!
Kristi Milowic: Bowling is always fun. The whole family can enjoy it, from my 5 year old grandson to us, his grandparents. The lanes are well kept, and the facility is clean. You can't beat French fries at the bowling alley!
walt heckman: Friendly staff, good lanes, small menu, no alcohol
Tank: Nice atmosphere and the lanes were smooth.
waneta stout: Great and helpful staff!!
Scott Crawford: Always a good time! This is a very clean, well-staffed bowling alley. They are reasonably priced, the equipment always works, and there's never that old sketchy bowling alley vibe that a lot of us grew up around! The little kitchen is efficient and makes good snack fare, also, everything is well-lit, which is awesome! The kids always enjoy the arcade as well. All in all, a great bowling experience that our family always enjoys!! Side note: when you're coming around the curve on 401 as you're getting ready to arrive, the first entrance is RIGHT THERE as you round the curve, so it's abrupt, lol!
Roxanne Crawford: We’ve been to this location a few times and the staff is super friendly. It’s always busy but never too long to get a lane. It’s clean and a good place to bring my tween/teen and her friends to have fun.
Hunter Bowles: Outdated, No Music, No Beer, 25 minute wait time for microwave pizza, kitchen staff made of 16 yr olds with no idea on how to use a grill for more than one order at a time, easily first and last trip here. spend your hard earned money somewhere else!
Adam Will: Lots of fun and clean
J Hardy (R3ALADON): Great bowling alley. And the arcade is pretty awesome. Food is pretty decent for bowling alley food.
Jess Crowder: Fun place. Clean. Friendly staff. Good food and drinks.
Nick Olivares: Very great place to bowl and if you are not into bowling they have a very fun arcade to go to and not rigged claw machinesOverall a great experience
Laina Y: So fun! Clean and well organized. Just had my son’s birthday party here and it was fantastic. So easy and reasonably priced! We’ll definitely do it again!
North Carolina Kropp: Great family deals on bowling and the staff were very friendly!
Asa Draper: Buffaloe Lanes South is one of our favorite places for bowling. If you're looking for a fun place to bowl at a good price you should go here.
Reginald Tyson: Great place to take the family for a day/night of fun. The prices are reasonable. Plenty for the kids to do as well as bowl. Has a lot of bowling lanes. It is worth the trip if you are in the area.
Lauren McDade: This place is fabulous! Very family friendly. We attended a birthday party here and it was a wonderful experience!
reggie tyson: Great place to take the family for a night of fun. The place was clean and had a lot of activities for kids to choose from. Prices were reasonable.

Lis B.: Remodeled version much better. Fun day . Great price and good Service
C Skam: Always a good experience. Clean and great staff.

BowlersMart Cary Pro Shop at AMF South Hills Lanes: what do users think?
John Groesser: Tony does a great job. Came in for a replacement ball for my son, and he had a new one drilled and prepped in half an hour at a fair price.
Nathaniel Johnson (Nate): Great proshop that hooked up my dad with a nice Brunswick Rhino. Changed his game for the better. Any future buys from me will be going here!
Ash Lam: Great place to have a game! Full bar and the menu goes above and beyond what you'd expect at a bowling alley. Staff is great and ale to cater to many at once.
Kevin Frank: Decent little shop hidden inside the Cary AMF Bowling Alley. Danny at the shop is a nice a guy and will do what he can to get the bowling ball right. There's a decent selection of shoes and bowling balls. The shop has a little of everything and decent prices. It's worth checking out.
Wendy McInteer: Took my niece to have her new bowling ball drilled after she was mailed a replacement ball from another bowling alley due to their machines putting a severe scratch in her ball. Since the damage occurred at lanes that were out of state we had to have the ball drilled locally. She just recently moved here so the man that would normally do this for her recommended we go to a bowlersmart pro shop.Mike did a wonderful job. We showed up 1/2 hour before they were to close and not once did he make us feel like he was rushed or annoyed. He took his time measuring, cutting, and making sure my niece was very comfortable with the feel and fit of her ball.Mike is very knowledgeable, personable, and made us feel very at ease. I'm so glad,with having to drive from the Hope Mills area, we chose the Pro shop Mike works at. Definitely would return again, he's worth the drive!

The Mardi Gras Bowling Center: what do users think?
Colleen Maxwell: So much fun. Thank you to lady at front desk who was so kind in assisting our group on Sat at 6 pm. Assisted in all aspects and to the cook who wanted to ensure my granddaughter had just the right seasoning on her 🍟 fries
Jon Vaughan: Lanes are similar to AMF (no traction). Limited tabs for beer, more choices for bottles.
Helen Lindsay: This is a nice bowling alley. We went around opening on a Sunday afternoon and we’re able to get two lanes right away. For 6 people it was about $100. We got some snacks (mozzarella sticks and fries and also some beers - everything came pretty quick)
jnyce68: The people serving food need to be fired and replaced. 100% incompetent and do not care about the customers. I went up there twice to order to cokes and some fries. The first time they said they couldn't take anymore orders because they just has a big order. The guy sat at the register playing around and wouldn't pour me two drinks.
Michael Kirschner: Staff were friendly and patient with our big group.
Ezra M.: Good place for bowling, however the food is far overpriced.
Luke Maduskar: Concessions is over priced with small portions. Sales tax is way more than it should be under NC law.
Ryan Parker: Aging facility for the price. But the staff were friendly.
Chris Casey: Had a great time. Went there as part of my wife's birthday. The staff was great and we didn't have to wait. Been here several times and always fun
Erin Wilson: Wonderful budget option to have fun with the whole family. The prize section is lacking, thus removal of the star. There are bumpers and these Dino tails for the kids (and adults) assistance for bowling.
Fanie Prieto: Smaller than most bowling alleys. Closes early too. Make sure to call in advance for availability- it will save you a trip.
Rob Forrester: It's smaller than I thought, but it was still a great time. Bumpers and ramps for the kids. Bowling alleys are a staple of our culture, especially if they're a little dated. You can't find that sound anywhere else.
Nichol Tate: Great staff. The place is clean and well maintained. Great place to spend time with friends or/and family.
penny smoot: Nice clean place friendly had a lot of fun anOnly cost $12.00 with shoe rental for 2 hrs
Helga Bluestone: It's modern, clean, family friendly. We are rank amateurs and the staff were very kind to us neophytes.Very enjoyable outing.
Connor Mixon: Not very busy and clean
Teddy: It was a decent place though it seemed pretty run down, and the staff seemed quite out of it. It was marginally decent food that was edible.
Maurice G: A good place to hang out with family!
Ken Taylor: Expensive shoe rental. Staff w poor attitude. Poor ball condition.....time for a serious upgrade. Clean restroom, for men.
Brian Coussens: Machines damaged my brand new ball in December (and many of their own balls have deep gauges from the machinery). While competitively priced, if you own your own equipment, bowling here is not worth the risk of damaging your stuff. I hate that it’s a problem because I would like to bowl closer to home, but I now drive to Cary weekly for bowling instead of risking my ball.
CMG Schneider: Nice to go with kids

Buffaloe Lanes North Family Bowling Center: what do users think?
Camille Allums: Loads of fun for kids. The arcade is pretty great too!
Heather Huffine: Best family entertainment around! Get the “Kids bowl Free” for the summer pass. 2 free frames per day & the adults on the pass get to go as well. Took my son for his Birthday and went again a few days later with a friend. Can’t beat it!
Renee Coppley: Fun atmosphere, very reasonable price packages, and great upkeep on the lanes. Only negative was an employee with a bad attitude.
Candy Helms: They could have the restaurant open while everyone is in there. It's kind of ridiculous that they don't.
Jamie Dykes: We had a good time
Christian Rosenfeld: Awesome bowling alley
Nicki: 2nd year in a row, celebrating my son's birthday party here. Wasn't aware of the bowling alley and game room renovation, but it looks really nice! The host was professional, polite, and courteous. (ChikfilA customer service!) The food and drinks were good. The birthday cake that they provided was a hit! Everyone enjoyed themselves, Good Vibes!
Michelle Singleton: Traditional bowling alley. Great pizza and family fun.
Kevin M: Lost a star for being out of multiple food options (nachos, donuts, ranch dressing). Everything else was fantastic.
Deborah Mulvany: A little restaurant inside is very reasonable with their prices and the lanes are very nice
Joe Aiello: Love bowling here
Village Reading Library: The facility itself is nice enough, but if you are looking for good customer service, look elsewhere. The old woman at the front desk is so very rude. She was awful as soon as we walked in the door and continued to be awful as we got our shoes. At one point one of our kids accidentally dropped his ball and it had to be retrieved by a staff member from the gutter. The old lady came over and demanded to know how it happened, then insisted we have rails on our lane. So glad we used free vouchers so they didn't get any more money from us than the cost of shoes. Never going here again.
Kandace Perryman: Nice large bowling center with a great pro shop and delicious and reasonably priced food! Great hosts for State Tournament!
Debra Turner: Wonderful family time outing
Burnzone A.L.: Lots of lanes. Good food. Ladies!! Clean restrooms!!!! To the owner, you have no idea how much we appreciate this.
Amanda Velasquez: Great place to bowl. I bowled 6 strikes in one game.
David Mansfield: My wife and I go nearly every Saturday. We are pretty bad at bowling, but we have fun. I really enjoy going here. We haven't had a bad experience yet. Sometimes, the staff can get a little overwhelmed when it is very busy, but they try. The lanes are pretty good and the equipment works consistently. The pro shop has been very helpful with knowledgeable employees. We did have to adapt to the hour system rather than per game system. But, they have reservations now and it would be impossible with the per game system.
Betty Dills: Took our grandsons and they had a great time
Nicole Stock: We had my daughter's 5th birthday party there. They were so easy and accommodating! Our party hostess was so sweet and friendly. I didn't have to do anything. Stress free and well done. The pizza was good. The cake was delicious. They announced Charlotte's birthday and she felt so special. She loves her bowling pin and her friends liked signing and drawing on it for her. It was so incredibly affordable and fun. I definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a good time at a great price for their little ones. Charlotte already asked for her next birthday to be there and a few of the moms are planning on having parties there too after coming to ours. Thank you to everyone for making our little girl's day fun.
Sasha Malic: Very clean and everything was in good order. Place was not busy. We had a great time.
Quita Parker: Need more drink options
