The bartenders are older, which is nice that its not a place to go and ogle the poor bartenders. But the one guy might need to lighten up a bit and smile every once in a while. We know its busy, and we will wait for your service, no problem.
But you did over charge my credit card. Not a huge deal, and I hope it went into tips. Overall, I enjoyed my time and will be back.
This place has been around for sooo many years. I think it was the only thing to do when I was growing up here. You will definitely have to know how to keep score as this is old school with paper & pencil. But if you want inexpensive bowling & cheap drinks then this is the place to go. The staff is friendly & recently went on a Sunday so there was no problem getting a lane. Scored another crowd cut deal so got 2 games, a pizza & shoes for $17. Pretty sweet deal, but even if you don't have one it's inexpensive fun.
Review Source:This place is a DUMP!! My wife and I, with two friends, went out to have a good time and we had to keep switching lanes because they kept breaking! The lanes are not taken care of. The place stinks with smoke! The blond bartender was a total B*+-h to all four of us. I am much older then 21 an they tried throwing me out because I didn't have my I.D. on me AFTER they gave me a drink without asking for my I.D. Â They were all VERY RUDE!! None of us will ever go here again! Hopefully, you won't either, it's not worth it.
Review Source:The Hudson Bowling Center is the last of a dying breed. Â There are very few businesses that so consistently provide you with exactly what you expect to receive. Â
Cheap Bowling? - Yes.
Cheap Beer? - Yes.
Second Hand Smoke? - Lots of it.
Carpeted Walls? - You bet.
A great time with your friends? - Hell yeah.
The HBC has resisted the trend towards electronic scoring and ridiculous black lights. Â You come to the Hudson Bowling Center to bowl and to drink Leinie's -- nothing else. Â This ain't no place to pick up chicks (though some have tried). Â This is a bowling alley.
Long live the Hudson Bowling Center with it's manual scoring, machines that have a tendency to break, and local clientele. Â It makes me sad to think of bowling anywhere else.
