Went here on a Friday night with my girlfriend. Â Each bowled 3 games and had two pitchers or beer. Â Bowling alley had some cosmic bowling going on and some music playing. Â Fun atmosphere. Â We paid about $58. Â A little pricey. Â After bowling we went over to the bar and had a couple more drinks. Â The bartender was awesome. Â She was very fun and generous. Â
Overall fun experience.
You probably won't find a better place to bowl than Strike Ten. The workers are extremely friendly and very helpful. The food is excellent, the lanes are in perfect condition, and the environment is great for any sort of occasion. Highly recommend Strike Ten Lanes for your bowling experience.
Review Source:I can't remember if we used LivingSocial or Groupon but we used our discount for a fun night out not too long ago. Â This is a nice bowling alley. Â Nothing like what I remember growing up, where the name Brunswick could be easily confused with Greyhound Bus Lines (somehow I always saw similarities between the old monotone colors, smells, and general brand presentation from Brunswick bowling with the depressing interior and feeling of malaise from a Greyhound Bus terminal).
Anyway back on topic, Strike Ten is a modern and upscale place that has made bowling exciting and new for the younger generation. Â We enjoyed ourselves with a quick bite to eat before we got started. Â The pub food is what you would expect, only nicer. Â Then we drank a few beers as we tried to avoid the gutter and roll a four bagger. Â There is an entire upper level inside that had a DJ booth (he was not on shift while we were there) and another full bar with plenty of seating with comfortable plush chairs and couches.
A fun time was had by us and the other families and groups that night. Â We will definitely return soon.
Went here around 9 pm Saturday night for a birthday party. When we got there, the place was pretty empty but it definitely started to fill up shortly after. There aren't that many lanes, maybe 10-15 total. If your lane is next to someone else, you do share a seating area. Instead of traditional bowling alley seats, there are oversized couches. There are also huge screens at the end of all the lanes which can be a little distracting...I think it helped me though because I bowled my best ever here. The screens play music videos or are on sports channels. The music played here was a little bit of everything from early 90's hits to top 20 hits. At one point there were playing a song that just had "t*tties, ass" over and over again and there were a few f-bombs thrown in. That doesn't offend me but I would hate to have my kid there and have them listen to that....but then again, who brings a young kid to a bowling alley past 9 pm?
Didn't order any food but the menu looked good. Had a drink from the bar (Malibu and pineapple) and it was pricey considering there was barely any alcohol in it.
Overall had a great time and if I am looking for a more upscale bowling night, I would come back.
Strike Ten in Roselle is a bowling alley for people that don't like bowling. I don't mean that the place turns bowling neophytes into fanatics. I mean that, unless you take your bowling seriously, you'll have a very good time.
Though only 14 lanes in size, my friend and I had no problems getting a lane one Tuesday night. They no longer have $2 bowling on Tuesdays, but somehow we got the deal anyway. The bar was well-stocked and we each had craft beer off the tap for $4, where lots of other places would charge $5.
With each lane, you get the greatest rest area I've seen in an alley: a big comfortable couch, facing sideways to make it fit, with a coffee table for every two lanes. It's a great set-up if your party has two lanes, but can be a bit uncomfortable if you're facing strangers. Fortunately, we bowled next to a larger group of three lanes, all of which were fun-loving and respectful.
So why am I not enamored with this place? Because, for the actual sport of bowling, it's not good. The lanes themselves LOOK okay, but they're made of some material that has a quality of, shall we say, springiness. I've never had my ball bounce upon hitting the lane, but I was getting single- and double-bounces on my strike ball, and I'm not one with a lot of loft. When you take your bowling seriously, as I have done in the last year with great results, having your ball bounce to the pins is not a pleasant sight, as it can affect the spin of your ball and the overall result. Having a bunch of big-screen TVs just above the pins is far from optimal when you're trying to find your mark on the lane but have to deal with the TV reflection. (This is troublesome during Cosmic Bowl, which suddenly took over mid-game. The black light and fluorescence might be cool for some, I suppose.)
A year ago, I would've loved Strike Ten. Now that I care about my game, I'm not so happy here. If you choose your bowling ball by color and have a designated "beer frame," you'll enjoy it. But I'd rather find a place where I can get a decent lane, cheap games and no gimmicks. Breaking 200 is enough entertainment for me.
I really like the original setup. I like the couches over the standard plastic chairs. I like the ease of use of the programs which make it easier for people who don't bowl all the time.
Went on a tuesday and it was depressingly empty. By the end it was just us bowling. But for 3.50 for your shoes, 2.00/game you can not beat it on tuesday night. I might start coming here more often.
Things to find out
1) what is there a fancy dining room in this place for? I imagine people in there after hours in a room full of smoke ripping hookahs and playing poker but if you know better - let me know.
I have read other reviews about karaoke. Thank God there was none of that when we were there, but if it does occurs I'd bust out of there.
This place is a joke. Â I started going when it opened and the owner constantly surrounded himself with 6 HUGE bodyguards and had bouncers all over the place. Â
My pals and I went there a lot. Â We hosted my son's birthday there and were given 2 lanes for 20+ kids to bowl. Â
The owner simply doesn't care about his customers. Â He acts like he never recognizes us, has never been friendly and prefers people of his nationality. Â One Saturday afternoon I brought my son in to go bowling and half the lanes were unused because the owner's family was having a party upstairs and wanted them reserved. Â We were told "10 minutes", but after 1.5 hours we left. The owner was there and acted like he'd never seen me before in my life. Â Didn't even offer us a free soda while we waited.
I've seen hookers in there, drug dealers, and all sorts of other BS. Â He runs it like an immature, spoiled kid who only wants HIS PEOPLE in there. Â I've never felt more unwanted.
We quit going. Shame, because it has potential but it's not a freakin' dance club, it's a bowling alley in the burbs...in the burbiest part of the burbs. Â I'm sure his family has plenty of money to keep it going...hopefully those family members pay full price for their lanes because he obviously doesn't want regular customers.
We went here last night because it was the only bowling alley in the area that was not running leagues.
When you walk in it looks really cool, the setup is nice.
And then it's pretty much all downhill from there.
We ordered Nachos and a Pizza, both were awful. Even for bowling alley standards they were awful.
Our waitress was nice, but kept forgetting our drink orders and then took 20 minutes when she did remember, and the place was mostly empty at the time!
Out of the 14 lanes, 4 of them were closed/broken when we got there. While we were playing, there was a family a few lanes away whose lane broke down, so they were moved to the lane next to us. A few frames later that lane broke down too. I felt bad for them, that sucks.
Our game was shutdown in the 5th frame for whatever reason, and when we asked the girl at the desk to turn it back on (you pay by games, it's not timed) she completely shut it off. Took another 20 minutes before it was finally back up.
Here's the fun part, they don't just charge you for a game at a lane, they charge each person individually, so for 3 people to bowl one game, and 4 people to bowl two games it cost us 50 bucks. Fantastic.
Avoid this place at all costs, just wait until the leagues are gone at the other bowling alleys.
And if you decide you do want to come here and throw your money away, at least eat first.
We tried Strike Ten because our neighborhood bowling alley had leagues going on. Always wanted to go here anyways, so it was a Wednesday night around 7pm. There were people there mainly families and couples. The staff was friendly, the price to bowl  I recall $3.75 a game which is average and shoes were $3.50. It's a nice clean place, modern (because it's new let's see what it looks like in a few years).
We were delighted that they offered a full menu and the food was good! Prices were reasonable, I guess for our needs that night was bowling and dinner and this place made it work for us. Would go again - nice place for a bowling party but the package prices are limited too pricey for a children's birthday if you are using the package  Give it a try it's worth going too.
$2 bowling at a nice, clean place with great service, enough said! Â I have been here twice in the past week and a half and loved both visits. Â This place is part sports bar/ part bowling alley. Â Plasma tvs everywhere, as well as projection screens that lower from the ceiling just above the pins. Â You never will miss a game while bowling, that's for sure. Â The service has been great too. Â Never do you have to worry about doing a beer run during a game as there is always someone there to take care of you.
Review Source:I was in the area so I decided to check it out last Saturday. Â This place was great. Â A ton of HDTV's, great drink specials, and the food was better than most restaurants I eat at. Â Best of all, they had UFC 117 on the tv's and they didnt even charge cover. Â
Played a couple games of bowling as well. Â Much better deal than other upscale bowling alleys and the lanes and balls were brand new. Â Bartenders and servers were really friendly and made great drinks.
Live DJ played great music upstairs (yes, it had 2 floors) Anyways, I'm definately going to check it out again.
And I signed up for Yelp to say this is a really nice place and don't pay attention to the other reviewer. Â I've been here twice and had good experiences each time and as I live nearby, I'll be visiting again. Â The staff was attentive and the atmosphere and decor is pleasant and family friendly - at least during the day when I visited. Â It's a great place to get out of the heat and bowl a few games. Â Since they have the $2 a game special right now, it's also a good value. Â Cheers!
Review Source:I signed up for Yelp just to write a review on this place and how BAD it is.
We went to this establishment to celebrate a birthday and bowl a few games. Many of us had driven by and remembered it to be an old Walgreens and wanted to check it out.
Overall this place is a Lucky Strike wanna-be. The only positive thing about the experience is that they had $3 drafts with Guiness on tap. They were understaffed and what staff they did have was in no way interested in helping us. The female bartender was more interested in flirting with her male customers than serving a table of 7. There was a 2nd waitress who would pass our table and barely look at us for fear of actually working.
The food was horrible, the bartender who helped us screwed up all our orders and the kitchen was out of certain food. Our dishes were never picked up from our table and we had to go to the bar to settle the bill.
Upon bowling the server we had was so-so. I did notice a few eye rolls and she made some snarky remarks to my husband and our friend at times.
The staff could also not get the music levels right at all with karoke upstairs and club style music on the lanes. There is nothing separating the two so you are unfortunately forced to listen to patrons badly sing songs.
This place seems to be run by very young people with all the staff (and a good portion of the patrons) being of a specific ethnicity.
I would strongly suggest staying away from this place. I've had better service from a Steak n' Shake at 3am when it is filled with drunks. Go to a real bowling establishment where you will actually get to enjoy yourself and some decent service.
