Jupiter Lanes

Went here to hang out with a friend. The place smelled like feet but the staff was very friendly and relaxed. They have beers and drinks but not a large selection. I went on a Friday night and it was pretty empty which was a surprise. I don’t think they have cosmic bowling either. The pricing isn’t bad though.

Was in this week and was very dissapointed. The food court was a mess flies, dirty tables, trash.etc. Food and drinks are overpriced. Mentioned the issues to an employee and was told the food court manager is an idiot and the owner and G.M. are incompetent. Just read the Health Dept. report online. The only bright spot was the manager up front. Save your money.

Filthy filthy filthy! Apparently the people of Jupiter lack class. Shoes all over the tables and the staff couldn’t care less. Yes, these are the tables you would be expected to eat off of. Good luck finding a ball, everyone takes about 4 a piece, again, staff doesn’t seem to care. Hopefully it’s torn down and a fancy open replaces it to weed out the trash. It’s just dirty. One last thing, the lanes break all the time, need to keep resetting.

Twice a year my employer has a team building evening of bowling, snacks and drinks. I’ve been coming to the lanes for the last 6 years as a guest of the company, and to be perfectly honest, I’ve never been on my own dime. That being said, although I never bowl, I go along with the gang and cheer on the teams. It’s always good for a few laughs and enjoyable to hang out with coworkers for a couple hours. The wings are tasty, pizza is ok, veggies… potatoes skins, and fruit plate very nice. Nice place to hang out for an evening.

So let’s do the pros and cons of this place.
Pros
A. They offer good leagues that are fun and competitive. (People definitely take these the competition to serious.)
B. They have great food (shocking for a bowling alley) even though it closes early and the place is open till midnight. The mozzarella cheese sticks are very good, french fries are good if they’re nice and hot and most of the sandwiches are tasty.
Cons
A. The downside is the staff with the exception of Mary who is a waitress and is amazing and Jeremiah and Kristina front desk at nights.
Other than those the managers are pretty rude and extremely unhelpful. The other waitresses and «bartender» just don’t seem to be able to handle the amount of people sometimes, and some of the stuff is just rude for no reason.
B. The floors, bathrooms, tables and carpet can be sticky and disgusting. Do not walk on it with bare feet! However that’s been my experience at most bowling alley’s.
C. Lastly (this is just odd) they have a giant fish at the front desk and newly put in Whale wallpaper and we’re not sure how that connects to a bowling alley. There name is «jupiter Lanes» with a turtle logo. However there are no turtles or logo anywhere. Just ocean and fish lots of fish.
Overall the prices aren’t bad and the atmosphere is ok but the management is something else. As long as you have no issues or complaints go have a good time!

My family lives at this bowling alley. Sandy, Mike, Mary, Clayton, Courtney, and Dwayne are just a few of the workers that are filled with awesomeness. They always give us great customer service. I have not experienced any terrible service. Tony in the pro shop is so nice and so is Bernard who works in the café. My son has an awesome bowling Coach. Her name is Olga. We just love Jupiter Lanes.

A group & I were there for the unlimited bowling. Nice clean place.
Went to the counter for shoes, the girl there with the dyed hair was very short with us, seemed condescending. Whatever, we werent gonna let that get in the way.
We went back to the smaller table to get our wrist bands (21 & up get a different color from the young ones) I think thats a fabulous system!
Go to our lane, have a few games, staff is constantly walking around, ball boy is always busy, and everything was just great.
Went to the bar to grab a drink, i asked for something fruity & fun. The sweet bartender gave me Pimp Juice. It was so awesome I had 3, my group had some too!
There was a situation where a man was having a seizure while I was waiting on my drink, the staff quickly took care of it.
All & all it was awesome, will go back, love their deals, arcade, employees.
I think they should have nicer people at the front desk since its where people HAVE to go to first, thats all.

So my experience wasn’t uncommon. I brought my son there today, I had a coupon for buy one game get one free, unlimited amount. We waited in line forever! I paid for 2 games, so I should have had a total of 4 games.
We went down to our lane, only a few of the keyboard letters actually worked, so we just used random letters. We started playing our first game, during round 5, the game restarted. We picked up our stuff, waited in line and told the girl at the desk, she said she started a new game for us. We finished that game, which would be game 1.5 and we are told to go tot he desk if we want another game. We go back up, wait in line and the girl starts arguing with me that I only paid for two games, I explain yes, I did, but I had 2 free games and really the 1^st one shouldn’t count considering we didn’t get to finish. She rolled her eyes and restarted the game.
Guess what happened next? After game 2.5 (or 3 if you want to consider the 1^st one a full game) our lane shuts down again. Once again, we are over at the desk, the girl Nycole, begins arguing again! till insisting that I hadn’t paid for the games. She one again rolls her eyes and resets our game. I wanted to leave, but also didn’t want to disappointment my son. We finished our 3.5 games and decided to leave. When I went up to return the shoes, she didn’t say a word to us.
Horrible customer service, dirty, sticky tables. Next time we will just take the drive down to Boca.

Don’t pick up the phone and call them if you’re looking for any form of decent customer service. Wow were they obnoxious and Not accommodating. So turned off.

Bowling lanes are good and ambience is very good. But the staff is soo rude and the way they reply, We didn’t like it. Also the food closes by 10.30 PM and bar is open till midnight. I don’t know why can’t they open food till midnight too when bar is open. Overall we went 6 people and we didn’t like it!!!

Very family friendly but also has a great bar and outdoor area. We went bowling on 4^th of July and had a blast with 12 yr old and college kids! Great fries! And disco bowling !

The attitudes of the employees stink! The games are constantly broken. The place is filthy. The bday parties stink too. Fold always cold. YUK!

My friend and I decided to go bowling, it was my first time in about 15 years or so. It was Saturday night and we arrived around 9:45pm and paid about 16 bucks each for unlimited bowling. The atmosphere was nice, couple of ghetto types in the game room took their shirts off while we were waiting to get our shoes made me a little nervous but once we got to our lane it was no problem.
I got lucky and found a ball that fit my big fingers on a rack with maybe three other balls and got right into the fun. Music was kinda lame, but it was not my type of music anyways. Would be really great if they had a waitress to take food/​drink orders, but we were close to the bar to get drinks so didnt hurt to bad.
Overall I was having a great time up until closing, when it hit midnight an announcement was made that Jupiter Lanes is now closed do not throw anymore balls, it was repeated two times but a few lanes away a game was on tenth frame with last bowl and they bowled only to hear a loud yelling voice not to throw anymore balls down the lane. It was actually poorly done and quite rude. I know people want to go home, but people on last frame, let them freaking finish while others are checking the shoes back in. A couple other bowlers actually grumbled about it near me I laughed about it, but it was pretty lame, could do a better job in closing.
I gave it three stars because we did have fun for the value and I would recommend to anyone to give it a try, hopefully they will reevaluate closing time announcements and attitudes though.
