    It was a rough night. After waiting for over an hour for our food (toddler meals came out a half hour after we ordered them and drinks), we finally told the waitress we needed to leave. She was really sweet and comped all of our food - we paid $30 for three beers, a glass of wine, and two kids meals. Three of the four adult meals were packaged up (one of our group members food was still being made and he said to forget it). It was swamped, but tolerable. Unfortunately, the woman in charge was blaming all of the issues on new hires and younger employees working a Saturday night - we overheard her speak to multiple tables who raised complaints. It was disappointing to hear her throw the employees under the bus.

    Went there for my daughters 11th birthday with a bunch of her friends. They had a great time bowling. Very friendly staff and something different to do in the cold WI winters. Food selection perfect for kids!

    What a great place! The Duckpin bowling was excellent, and perfect for the little guys, ages 7, 4, and 2. Everyone can do it! The place is large, with lots of good seating and ling tables for eating and drinking while bowling. It adjoins the restaurant (basically same room) so you can see what's going on all around you. The food was very good, a cut above regular bar fare. The arcade games were fun for the kids. Be aware a crumy $1.00 toy will cost you $10.00 to win! Overall a great experience!
