AMF Cranston Lanes

Of all the bowling alleys I have been to, this is my favorite, so far. I recently started bowling on a Tuesday night league here and love how friendly the staff are. They will greet you, get to know your shoe size so when they see you they will pull your shoes right away and not keep you waiting. The inside is well maintained and clean. They have a snack bar where you can order burgers (both beef and turkey), pizza, fries, etc. and they are shockingly good… For bowling alley food. Great environment.

AMF Cranston Lanes is a great location! I think the first thing that caught my eye was that they have –two– rows of lanes, one on the left side of the building and one on the right as well! This place is huge! Most of the services are placed in the middle of the building making it most convenient for bowlers on either side. This place has a pretty decent dining selection (for a bowling alley, that is) with freshly made pizzas being made right in front of you on busy nights! All portions of food are big here so buyer beware!
The only reason why I’m not thrilled about this place is because it seemed very expensive just to bowl (two people for two hours on a Saturday night was around $ 35) and we must have gone on the wrong night because Cosmic Bowling (black lights and top 40 music) wasn’t on during a Saturday night. Other than that, no major complaints! Friendly wait staff and patrons!

Great place to hangout with the family for a couple of hours. My kids loves it here especially for the rock n roll bowl when the lights goes down and the disco comes alive. The place is pretty clean and service is not to bad for food and drinks.

Awesome experience. Well lit and modern computer system and a great snack bar. Pretty cheap too for both the bowling and snacks.
Really the only complaint would be that the neighborhood is a little dicey, but the bowling experience itself here is great.

I really do love this bowling alley and had a fun night here .
I love the fact there are so many lanes making it convenient for families who especially have a lot of people. The place is also very nice and clean, very well lit inside which I love because I’m pretty much blind. I also love the fact this place has a nice bar area. They also have a lot of parking in the front and back.
I went on the College Night. Which is on Thursday nights from 8pm until midnight. It’s 6.99 per person includes the shoes and unlimited bowling for the night, SCORE! But you have to have a college ID. And if it couldn’t get any better they have amazing drink specials ! I ordered a Massive Bowl Mai Tai and it only cost 5.50 DOUBLE SCORE ! And my fiancé ordered a beer 2.00 ! And I believe at 10 is when they turn off the lights and it’s like a bowling night club it’s so much fun.
I would recommend this place to anyone ! But this night especially is a fun night out for the crew to hang out or even you and your spouse it was so much fun !

Not a good place go to me adowbrook in warwick or macs in w warwick customer is not friendly I don’t recommend stay away high prices and fried frozen food stay away I prefer private non corporate centers

This place is good to bowl, but the service at the bar was awful. Apparently the bartenders were new or something when we went there last time. They «weren’t allowed» to take a legit government issued ID when I obviously looked older than the 2 girls behind the bar. My group of friends ordered a couple of pitchers of beers and we needed an extra glass for someone who had already a bracelet. The young bartenders made her beg for an extra glass because they «were not allowed» to do so. That’s not cool at all. On the other hand, $ 18 per person to play? If you want to have a drink at this place, unless you’re 50, just go to a bar.

Love this place, clean and friendly and some decent food. Great to take kids during the day because its so cheap. You don’t have to know how to keep score due to the good computer system. Overall its a fun clean place.

Great setup… lots of bowling lanes, restaurants, video machines, pool, etc… nice complex. All the scoring for bowling is automated, so that makes it easier… it even tells you how fast the ball was !! FUN !!

worst blowing «check in» experience!
Amiee, working the front counter was everything but welcoming. I recommend under-​go some kind of training on customer service.
As Amiee was chatting with a buddy over the counter; i tried to catch her attention to obtain a lane for two, for two hours…
WOW! i never seen anyone tried everything in their power to ignore a customer. This bowling alley was super dead… i think i’ve seen this massive venue only has two customers (two lanes in use). After waiting forever, just to request a lane… she said it will cost $ 60 for 1 lane for two hours for two bowlers. in a super unfriendly and rude tone… wtf?!
ummm, sorry… but what did i do to you?!
— I ended up walking out.
I ended up going to AMF Lang’s Lanes (also known as AMF Cranston Lanes
)
Two hours, two bowlers for $ 14.28…
I do not recommend this spot… but i recommend this link

As far as the bowling part goes, it’s your average bowling alley. Nothing particularly noteworthy about that aspect except for the fact that the score keeping computers appear to be from 1992. We met up with a big group of people on a Saturday night and had 10 lanes reserved. My boyfriend went to get our shoes for us, which took him over 10 minutes because the place was so crowded, but I suppose that’s to be expected at prime time on a weekend.
The part that makes this place a complete fail is the bar service. If you plan to drink while you bowl (which, in my opinion is the only way to make bowling really fun), then you have to do one of the following:
1) Arrive at least a half an hour before you plan on bowling, and get a pitcher (if there are any left… we were not lucky enough to score one) so that you won’t have to return to the bar every time you want a refill.
2) Bring someone who doesn’t want to bowl to be the designated bar line-​stander. Here is your chance to invite that really annoying friend who always wants to hang out but you don’t particularly want to hang out with. They will spend pretty much the entire evening standing in the bar line for you while you have fun bowling. And they will probably never ask you to hang out again! It’s the perfect solution!
3) Devise a way to get the attention of one of the waitresses early, and order 2 buckets of beer with ice. That way you only have to order once.
In all seriousness, HORRENDOUS bar service here. They were out of all of their draft beers except for Bud Light and regular Sam Adams. They were out of pitchers. I stood in line for over half a game (and still wasn’t close to reaching the bar) before my boyfriend came and got me and told me they’d managed to find a waitress. When we ordered 2 buckets of beer, she brought us one cold (with no ice) and one warm (with a tiny bit of ice) because they were out of cold bottles. The only bright side was that it only cost us $ 35 for 12 bottles of Coors Light (the mountains were not blue!). Sure, it was decently crowded, but I’ve seen 2 bartenders manage to keep up with bars at full capacity better than these bar tenders kept up with a line of 20 people. Horrible!

Pretty big place. Came here with a group of nine and ended up splitting into two ‘teams’ taking up 2 adjacent lanes. Prices were pretty good, $ 14 per person for 2 hours of bowling. Sadly, we just missed out of the rock-​n-​bowl… complete with huge projection screens playing music videos and blacklights… but somehow I think this was for the best since I wasn’t doing all that well bowling with the lights on… no need to add additional challenges. The place was pretty packed when we arrived… it appears the bowling alley is the place to be… and picked up more as the evening went on. Fun times and great for a group. Our other option for the night was Dave and Busters, but we figured bowling would actually be more time spent –together– rather than off playing games separately. I was happy with the choice… even if I was on the lower end of the score ranking.
