Adventure Bowling Center

Took the family there last week. Very shocked at the condition of the place. You can’t even get through the door without it slamming on you. It is held together by a bunge cord. Very unsafe because when you shut the door it slams on you. The place smelled like it hadn’t been cleaned in years. It was dirty and outdated. The outside looks deshelved and run down and the parking lot pavement is torn up and unsafe to walk on. Needless to say we will not be returning. The pizza looked awful and not very appealing. Since downtown Snoqualmie is being updated, they should think about restoring this and the other stores around there.

went here last night and it was so much fun. the guy working was super nice and friendly, they were open till one and had cosmic bowl. Super happy we found this and will be coming back soon (:

It was small but it was nice. The service was excellent and the people were kind. Over all 5 stars!

Regardless of all the «not so good» reviews on here I still went ahead and booked this place for our company retreat outting. 28 of us took the place over last night and had a blast! We got a banuqet license and brough in our own drink and ordered pizza’s there (which were great!). We were there over 3 hours and the staff were great. If you are looking for somewhere fancy and modern, this is not the place (but please remember the location… what else do you expect!). If you are looking for somewhere to have a good time and just make it what you want. this is the place to be! Thanks again to Harold and his staff for a very enjoyable night.

Horrible. Disgusting. This place should be reported to the authorities, inspected, and closed down. The only employee was incredibly rude, and seemed annoyed that we interrupted him sitting and drinking soda. He mumbled the pricing and when I said, «excuse me, I couldn’t hear you», he rolled his eyes, and just about yelled at me. The shoes were cracked and old, the balls were the same… cracked, chipped, and greasy. The tables were covered in dust, grease, muck. I am not even going to mention how awful the bathroom was – let’s just say I doubt it had been cleaned in months, and the toilet was full… yuck. There were 3 kids that seemed to be related to the sole employee that were helping themselves to soda behind the counter, and playing tag amongst the lanes. What a shame that this place exists in a quaint town like Snoqualmie. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME, MONEY, or IMMUNE SYSTEM.

The one time we went made for a fun evening but there is lots of improvements to be made to this place! The service is mediocre at best. Seems like people don’t want to work there. It feels very dirty and grimy. You have to do your own scoring with no directions on how to even score and can be hard to tell how many pins you knock down. There are not many lanes and much room for sitting without feeling crowded by the people bowling next to you. You pay by the hour instead of the rounds which would be nice but then that means people are just trying to bowl fast and pay no attention to bowling manners of waiting for the person next to you to finish there turn. If anything made me feel better about my terrible score because no one around me cared one bit about bowling or manners. I would recommend going at a slow time so that you have more room and don’t have to worry about rude people next to you.

Changing this to a one star. We have tried to give this place a chance over and over, but it just isn’t worth it. The man that always works there is rude. Very rude. This venue is on Groupon a lot, so I try to buy the groupon when I see it. The 3 times I have been there he has openly complained to me about using the groupon. When we were there 3 weeks ago and I gave him a groupon, he told me: «if I had known you were going to use this I would have told you that you can’t on Saturday nights.» No where in the T&Cs does it say you can’t use it on a Saturday. He then told me to not buy groupons for the bowling ally anymore. He said that the business doesn’t make any money off of them and they loose money. THEN WHY PUT YOUR BUSINESS ON GROUPON? We won’t be going back there again. I’m happy to pay full price anywhere– but to encourage me not to find a deal is very bizarre.

We had a groupon for bowling so we decided to go on a pretty Saturday afternoon. I walked in with my kids and the place was very dirty and pretty empty. Walked up to the show rental counter and told the employee that I had a groupon, he snapped back and said «can’t use that, it’s only good Monday through Thursday,» I said that there are no restrictions on the groupon. The employee then rudely snapped back «there doesn’t have to be, it’s what I say it is, so you can use it and we don’t have any lanes open.» When they only has people on 3 lanes. I feel bad for anyone else who decides to buy these groupons and try to use them. Save your money and go bowling at Tech City Bowl in Kirkland. I called groupon and told them about my experience and they refunded my money.

Do not waste your gas to go to adventure bowling. Everything was dirty and disgusting. The shoes were falling apart, the bathroom door had duct tape all over it. The staff member who helped us was beyond terrible. I will never go to his place again and bring hand sanitizer with you if you do go, shower after!!!

Unfortunately I must start with the negatives: THEY DON“T HAVE AUTOMATIC SCORING EQUIPMENT! I personally don’t like keeping score on a piece of paper and guessing how many pins I knocked down. This place is old and as the other reviewer said, rinky-​dink. In a lot of situations, an old business that’s been around since the 1950’s would be full of charm, but in this case it just feels old and out of date. On the Friday night I went, the bowling alley employee had given control of the sound system to a group of high schoolers, so we were graced with non-​stop rap music full of countless uses of the N and F word. I’m no prude, but music about pimping doesn’t really seem to fit the Cosmic Bowling vibe and makes for an uncomfortable environment for conversing with friends. I wouldn’t recommend taking children on a Friday or Saturday night because it seems they have any established standards for the music that is played. I believe they have «family bowling» on Sun-​Thurs, which I’d hope would keep it a little more appropriate for a general audience.
On a positive note: Cosmic bowling had fun lighting. There are only 8 lanes, so it feels like a fairly private environment. Sahara Pizza, which shares the building has good pizza.

My fun aunt and uncle (and awesome cousins) took me and my good friend up here while we were visiting for Thanksgiving Break during our Freshman year. We didn’t really know what to expect — see, after a day of seeing gorgeous falls, an antique railroad museum and general breathtaking views — how could you effectively «one up» that?
Answer: Adventure Bowling Center.
Herein laid the surprise of the evening — that this old, seeminlgly rinky-​dink bowling alley not only featured bowl and pin fun, but amazing, gourmet pizza as well! We ordered two really big pies, and I distinctly recall biting into delicate white sauce, premium ingredients like artichoke (hey, this was over 7 years ago now, this was fancy to me as a 19 year old!) Oh, yum.
However, the real memory goes beyond the delicious pizza — see, I am a world class klutz (serious, I have a gold medal) and managed to DROP A TEN POUND BOWLING BALL on my foot. Yup, it hurt like NOTHING ELSE; I cry-​laughed in agony… and the Adventure Staff was more than accomodating — I think they saw it happen in slow motion, and they jumped in, dispensing ice from the drink machine into little baggies for me, and offering to call a doctor if I needed it.
That’s service!
