Flamingo Bowl

Sunday was open bowl, I called ahead and was informed of a special, 10 dollars for three hours of bowling from 6 to 10pm, and was informed lanes would be available. I Showed up 10 minutes early, and was asked by Flamingo if I could wait 10 Minutes without an explanation. 30 minutes later I was still waiting. I approached the desk and asked what was taking so long. I was ignored, and someone mention their was only 6 lanes open bowl, for open bowl. 20 more minutes pass, and no one had the decency to tell me what was going on. I had driven 40 miles one way for their bowling special, and they only had 6 lanes open for open bowl. Then while I was waiting with my children, a bowling team said that we could not sit 20 feet behind them, because they might get distracted. This place was a nightmare, and falsely advertise their open bowl, when in all actuality there was only 6 lanes available out of 40 something lanes. 50 Minutes now had passed, and I approached an employee who was walking by, and asked why I’ve been waiting for 50 minutes when I called ahead, and was informed their would be plenty of lanes to bowl. She informed me they had leagues that hadn’t left yet, and it could still be awhile. 50 minutes and not one person could tell us that when we arrived. The special would have ended at 10pm and we would not of had our 3 hours of bowling. Our kids who are very young, were anxious, and sad at the same time. We ended up driving home from and 80 mile round trip, because flamingo lied about having plenty of lanes for customers to use during open bowl. I would not recommend this place to anyone, and feel flamingo should at least pay for my time and gas. I also think flamingo needs serious customer service training, for none of the employees had any sense of how to deal with their customers.

Brought a coupon for a 3 hour special. When I arrived there was slightly less than 3 hours left till night bowling. Said I could not use the coupon. The man said it was better not to use the coupon, and he «didn’t want to screw» me. Paid $ 37 instead of $ 24 per the coupon. Wouldn’t change his mind at the end. Bottom line is, they are dishonest people. Beware.

I have been going since I was a kid. I still take my kid every once in a while. Staff is always friendly and place is always clean.
I can’t comment on the food because I don’t think I have ever bought anything other than a soda.

A lot of fun all year round. I have been going to Flamingo Bowl for years and have always enjoyed myself. The prices are always very fair, from $ 1 mania Wednesday’s to «Cosmic Bowling» on Fridays and Saturdays. The music is always enjoyable and the food there is pretty good. It’s a nice place to take the family for a couple hours of fun. They normally do food specials as well (why not get a pizza for the family!). For the later night ground, there is a good sized bar, dart boards and arcade games.
There is a large selection of house bowling balls as well some misfit, more premium balls left my bowling leaguers of the past. Search around and you just mind a diamond in the rough to shoot that high score you’ve always wanted! Just make sure you stay on your feet in the house shoes ;)

Awesome local bowling alley. In fact, this is the first bowling alley i’ve been in that not only offers all the typical bowling alley food but offers fresh, hearty and gooey weekly specials. I have been on 3 leagues here. The staff is friendly and they really get to know the patrons. Before i purchased my own 8lb ball they would always put my favorite ball aside without me ever asking! Good food, great staff and the owners are kind and attentive. The chef makes homemade cooking too! I would always save Saturday bowling as my «cheat day» because the food is great! Big bowling alley, lots of leagues, available lanes and fun for all ages. They even have holiday parties for families. Great local family bowling alley. Go!!!

This place has not changed since the 90’s! Old school bowling alley, has everything you need. Bowling, beers and all around good time. No need for any flashing lights still a good time!

It’s been a while since I’ve been here, but I definitely remember it being awesome.
Not expensive, plenty of space and I remember the lighting setting an impressive atmosphere at night. It turns out I showed up for one of their «Cosmic & Electro» bowling nights on the weekend, with a plethora of laser lights and DJs playing all sorts of hits.
Bowling shoes are only $ 3 to rent and they have lots of specials throughout the week with an average game costing $ 3.
Great place to have a party or to just go and hang out with a few friends.

Cheap bowling but the male cash register clerk seemed unpleasent and a tad rude otherwise a nice inexpensive activity
