AMF Peoria Lanes

Went here this weekend for a day bowling date (sounds cheesy, but it was fun) The lanes are nice and everything looks clean and kept up. But once we got to the counter we were «greeted» by probably one of the most unfriendly and unhappy people I’d ever met. I mean, if I had to have more than a 2 sentence convo with him during our visit it may have ruined my day… but that was the only interaction we had with him. Bowling was fun, we aren’t pros or anything so just laughs and some friendly competition. When we decided to go grab a drink from the bar … well, I’ll just say there must be something in the water that makes the staff here pretty much hate life and their customers. We had one drink then left the alley to go to a bar… because it’s no fun to feel unwanted by the bartender! haha

The «cosmic» bowling is weak. The bartender Shannon was a to total B. This was out first time here and it is the closet bowling alley to our house but I don’t think we will be back.

Hanging out with my family. Superb customer service, great staff, fantastic food yummers. Bowling! The pizza is so tasty, the music is awesome, great way to spend Friday night.

I’ll give Cynthia Shannon 5 stars for tending bar. We, two senior citizen women, went into the lounge after 8 p.m. for some pool and beer to practice for our geezer pool league on a busy Wednesday bowling league night. Most bartenders and servers see two old ladies and immediately discount them as cheap, poor tippers and so don’t give them good service (which came first, the chicken or…). However, Cynthia was super friendly, pleasant, efficient and professional. Although there was only one other table occupied with a family in the front/​alley concourse part of the lounge, Cynthia was kept very busy serving the bowlers at the bar. Still, she was always pleasant and professional to us and even listened and laughed to our lame jokes. Give her a raise and have her train other bar personnel.
As for the lounge, If you’re going to have a pool table, could you at least put a light above it so the shooters could actually see the ball colors? The decorative dim light hanging off center of the table doesn’t quite get it.
Overall, the lounge was very clean, and walking though the facility, every thing else looked good too.

The Management that is running this place has got to be the most inconsiderate group I have ever encountered. The GM Bob doesn’t care about the customers at all. Stood at the front counter for 12 minutes and never had anyone greet me or tell me to hold on meanwhile the line was going to the door so someone should of came to the counter to wait on all the customers. Bob gave me a time frame of 20 minutes for my lane I told him no problem. I went to the bar with my group of 12 and waited ordered food, beer and sodas spent $ 75 on that garbage. 1 hour went by went and asked Bob what the deal was and that was when he lost his cool and started to flip out in front of customers. I asked for my refund for 12 people which was $ 144 and took my business to uptown alley. This alley is the worst alley ever. I asked Bob for his bosses name and number his name is Jason Hall and he could care even less than Bob he has yet to return my call I’ve called him on 3 occasions asking for a call back with absolutely no luck. Way to treat your customers AMF I will be spreading the word about this dump.

Worst experience ever! Came here to bowl, paid and was told by the GM Bob that it was going to be 20 – 25 minutes. 1 hour later we go to ask about our lane because the people that came in after us got their lane. GM starts an argument with my brother in law calling him a liar, that he’s (GM) right but we can clearly see that my brother in laws name is crossed off the sheet and replaced with the people that got here after us but clearly we’re lieing. That GM is a perfect example of what you don’t want working for your business. How dare you call a customer a liar and why would you start an argument in front of other customers. Bob has made it impossible for me to even think about coming back to this bowling alley.

Fun! I love bowling. This place is cool especially during cosmic bowling when they turn the lights down and have a mixture of music.
I like their new decorations/​renovations. It has a more modern feel!
I will say that it is pretty dirty, though. The bathrooms are always disgusting.

Came here on a Monday and it was $ 1 game and $ 1 shoe rental. Can’t really beat that and the ambience is actually nicer than most bowling alleys I went to.

It was bad, my date and i were excited at first but then after we payed the cashier decided not to warn us about the full house and didnt bother or thought to tell us before we paid, we only played three games in total thank to a different cashier and then asked to leave since the full house arrived

Bowling is fun no matter what ally your at. It’s the atmosphere that makes it worth your while. This location has been recently «upgraded.» It has been repainted inside and out and the arcade area has almost been totally wiped out and replaced with a bowling type shop with balls shoes shirts and bags. However this review is solely on the service VS the price for a birthday party I threw for my son last Sunday. I went through their corporate office to plan this event. The event coordinator I worked with was mediocre. We communicated through email, he did respond fairly quickly but not entirely accurately. When I asked about reserving a lane for adults and pricing he automatically just added an extra lane and 5 adults to the party package without explaining anything. I was only inquiring about the extra cost and I wasn’t sure I would be adding any adults so for him to just add that in wasn’t very proficient. When I asked him to remove it, he did and nothing else went wrong. I had 3 different prices to pick from (they require a party of 8 or more), $ 14.99 $ 18.99 or $ 21.99 per kid. I chose the $ 14.99 which included 2 hrs of bowling, shoes, unlimited drinks, and one slice of pizza for each child. Upon arriving the manager points to our lanes and says the table is set up and there are 2 pitchers on the table that we can use for the drinks. She wasn’t very personable. Nothing was explained once we got there and we were never checked on. We were pretty much on our own. Bowling isn’t hard to process and I’ve been here plenty of times But some good customer service from the ally would have been appreciated.

We went to this bowling alley on Saturday night. Overall experience was great. This location was clean and the staff were very easy to work with. The lane we had functioned well and was free of errors. Like previous reviews have noted, the food and beer were over priced. Understanding the cost of operating an alley, I fully expect to pay a little extra for a pitcher of miller lite and a pretzel.
At a certain time in the night the lights are dimmed, music level increased and the lanes are illuminated by colored lights. Above the lanes are tvs that play music videos offering additional entertainment. This alley will provide everything you would expect when going bowling.

Rude staff members. No communication between «people in charge» and the other employees. Not willing to accommodate or admit they were wrong. A group of 18 of us know that we will not be retuning.

I brought my sister, nieces, and nephew for a family fun night with my son and I. The prices were ridiculous. The staff I can’t remember his name but he was very friendly and helpful as far as putting the bumpers up and making sure our food came out on time. I told the woman the shoes were hurting my sons feet in the back and she gave me worn out shoes that cut the back of his heels… it was empty at first but it filled up very quick. We ordered a large pizza which was 15.00 and a large fry that had little to no cheese and huge beacon pieces.

The staff were very helpful, fun and upbeat environment, and the best part of it was the awesome playlist if music. Good place for families as well as a date. There’s a restaurant connected to it so you can order and have them bring the food to your bowling area, which I thought was pretty cool. There’s also an arcade and laser tag for the little ones if they don’t want to bowl.

Maybe Foursquare was right, and checking in at bowling alleys is just one step away from «crashing some eight-year-old’s birthday party». I sure feel that way here, at quite possibly the most kid-​friendly AMF ever. Little rascals were scurrying about everywhere, even though it was roughly 9 at night.
I tiptoed my way to the bar (tucked in to a far off corner) for a bit for a reprieve. Not much selection, but $ 1 whiskey sours at the time. Those can get you in trouble. Despite being a large building, the restroom was single-​service, with quite the line. Inconvenient.
The lanes themselves were as good as they needed to be, although you can tell by the dullness of the floors this is one of the older establishments. Overall, I don’t mind this place, it just seems less fun for adults than other AMFs I’ve been to. I’ll make my way toward Bell road instead now.

The only reason why I give them three stars is because my first experience was wonderful staff was very helpful and even let us finish our game even though our two hours were up.
Our second trip HOWEVER was disappointing the assistant manager was very rude. I asked if we could split the bill and she rolled her eyes at me and sighed and stated no she couldn’t do it. The First time we were here we did this and the staff had no issue and were very friendly.
This was just normal staff but the fact that the manager treated me this way was very disappointing.
Also we wanted to sign up for bowling all summer because there is a sign up that says you can inside and she rudely told us we had to go home and go online.

About 10 of us decided to get together for an adult night. We figured we would try out luck at Cosmic/​Rock N Bowl.
We I made reservations over the phone with Sabrina (who was very nice) Friday night asking them to reserve me lanes for 10 people (which I highly suggest you do!!!)
We get there and they were playing good music, we all paid for our night, which $ 17 per person for 3 hours of bowling and shoe rental is an AWESOME deal if you have ever been bowling.
We got two lanes to put us 10 crazy 30 yr olds on and we bowled our little hearts out. We were given a server (which I have never seen before) and that girl was on top of it. Never did I have an empty drink in my hand and she was so nice always asking us if we needed anything.
I have been bowling off and on for years and my parents even used to own the Sun Lanes bowling alley in Wickenburg but this is one of the most clean bowling alleys I have seen. There weren’t a lot of obnoxios kids and the music was pretty decent. We didn’t get stuck listening to hip hop all night, but a nice mixture of everything.
We were well taken care of from the time I called Friday to reserve to the time we walked out the door at 1am on Saturday.
I had a blast and so did all my friends and we have decided to try and make this a monthly thing of getting together here.
It was a great deal, we had access to a full bar, and good music to dance to.
I am to old for the bar/​club scene and this was a great way to have a great time, be able to have your friends around having a good time, having some drinks and even shakin our booties to a few songs!!!

Staff was very rude, bowling prices weren’t displayed to the best of their ability, extreme bowling itself was over priced almost $ 20 per person. The only thing about their extreme bowling was that it was extremely hot, temperature wise. they had many ceiling fans and not one of them turned on. And the bowling equipment malfunctioned three times during our games. It was not a pleasant experience and I don’t believe we’ll be going to this facility again.

Were new in town, and New Years Eve was approaching us and I was looking into going some where this year. So I had a lot of ideas, then my daughter mentioned the AMF Peoria Lanes were offering a new years eve party. So we decided to attend this year. We really had a lot of fun! This was a great place to bring your young ones and spend your New Year Eve with them. Service was great and very friendly. I have no problem attending this every year.

Fun family atmosphere… just kinda priced 2 high
