In Short – Lucky Strike, a national chain of upscale bowling lounges, has quickly become the alley of choice for local hipsters just in for a drink and ten-pin enthusiasts alike. Despite over a dozen lanes, weekend waiting times have been known to top two hours. Those on the list--no reservations are taken--pass the time drinking designer cocktails whle gawking at an astounding video monitors. The lounge's retro environment and comfy couches are popular with area students and sports fans.
Good Idea but BAD service made it a not so good idea.

I am highly disappointed! Went there this past weekend and was pretty excited to be there. The place looks cool and plus I was on a date. First thing we noticed, the tables were not clean and there was no one to seat us. We just grabbed the first table we saw. I guess thats how it works, because no one complained. So after seating ourself, we notice the waiters and waitresses were watching the games on the tv and having conversations, ignoring the customers. We waited 10 minutes before one of the workers took notice that we were there. Then when taking our orders, we were rushed and given attitude like we were bothering them. The guy that was our waiter could not remember my order and it was just a beer to start off... He asked me 4 times what type of beer I wanted. I guess his mind was some where else. I dont think i will be back to this place. Its ashame because the place setup really nice but bad food and service and kind of pricey... i dont think i will spend my hard earned money there, until the food and service improves.
- Pros: Idea, Drinks, Bowling, Pool tables, Atmosphere
- Cons: Service and Food... I didnt care for both
Classy and Chic- and it's a Bowling Alley!
by JackieQ
Bowling is always fun, but who would have guessed a night out bowling could also be a trendy/chic/ dare I say luxurious experience? That's exactly what my girlfriend's bachelorette party was at Lucky Strike. We rented one of those private rooms and enjoyed a night filled with endless cosmos, great coversation, dancing, bowling and FUN!
The Best Bowling Concept Ever

This bowling alley is the finest out there. Great food; great fun; great service. Good for the whole family or just for an adult fun night out. I highly recommend this place and will return often with my friends and coworkers.
- Pros: Uniqueness of Style and Service; Very Comfortable; Loads of Fun
- Cons: Prices for Party Packages a bit Steep
