Reviews & Tips

• 0

  After dinner a pal and I decided to go to Strike City to bowl a coupole games. It was busy,however there was no one at the counter in line, so my friend asked if there were any lanes open. NO RESPONSE from the 2 goons at the front desk. We continued to stand there,and after 3 minutes of being ignored because the assholes at the counter were watching TV, I said "Fuck It". Gave up on bowling for the night,but definitely know now that strike city will NEVER get any of my,or mycolleagues business...ever....

  There are a lot of good memories here and if I ever was in Eugene and felt like bowling again this would be my first choice.  Strike City is nothing extraordinary, but a very dependable bowling alley that is perfect for students, families, and bowling lovers alike.
  
  The place isn't big, there are only about 24 lanes and a small arcade to boot.  There are plenty of balls and usually they have enough bowling shoes for everyone.  Service is good here, but sometimes they take awhile to tend to lanes if there are balls stuck or some type of a system error.  Like most bowling alleys, the food is mediocre.  Any bowling alley vet knows this, but that's not the reason for the star deduction.  I've had multiple experiences where I've chosen bowling balls that were not clean.  Be it greasy or sticky, it was not the most ideal situation.
  
  But what keeps us all coming back, is their dynamite specials.  Back when I was in school, it was $1 a game, but now they have $2 per game nights which run from 9 to Midnight from Monday to Thursday.  The same price is also during their Happy Hour (3-6PM) as well.  Also recommended is their cosmic bowling hour, which goes from 9PM - 1AM on the weekends.

  My wife and I came here last weekend for a bowl-a-thon sponsored by many different local business's. We actually had a good time, it was middle of the day and they still killed all the lights and turned on the black lights, disco ball, and all that flashy fun stuff.  We got to play 2 free games and do a bunch of raffles and 50/50 for charity.  They have a bar located down stairs.  During league you can bring up a pitcher of beer, but other than that it's a no.
  
  Not too much else to say about the place, it was clean, staff was friendly, and there was a guy controlling the bumpers so when kids were up they wouldn't throw a gutter everytime.
