The Wicked Googly

The beer selection is phenomenal. It rivals The Headkeeper in Greensburg. The food is pretty good. The vibe is hit or miss.

They have live music every weekend which is great. The patrons are usually your dive bar type of people.

The staff.. Well, one of them just gave another staff memeber a ton of stiches. Fuckin' stupid. I'll not go there again without serious debate. Instead, pick the Tavern, or even Joe's. Tavern has a great beer selection and great food. Way less of the riff raff of this joint.

The staff also take forever to get you a beer. I usually order two on every trip to the bar.

The only reason I would give this place two stars is due to the decent live music and the renovations made a few years ago added much improvement from when it was Ligonier Lanes.
They do change up their draft selections often, which adds some class.  However, with all the bells and whistles, the beautiful new bowling lanes, new bar and overall feel, I'm always super disappointed with this place. If it wasn't for the music, I don't view this as a hot spot.
I've tried twice to make lane reservations during a weekend afternoon. I did my job of calling days in advanced, only to show up once during league night and having to pack my party into one lane. It's as if they had no clue I had a reservation. The second time, there wasn't even anyone working the lanes and I had to wait for someone to show up to set it up an hour later. The bartender also had no idea there was a reservation.
Next severity is the miserable bar staff. Now, I know serving drunk people probably sucks, but it is their job to serve. Why not try serving with a smile? Being this is a small town, there are a lot of little cliques happening. If your not buddy-buddy with the bartenders, expect to be ignored. So many times, I've waited for 5 to 10 minutes only to have a buddy buddy come up and get served right away. I don't even try anymore. If I do go in to see a band, I have someone else grab my beers. Don't get mixed drinks either. The plastic cups are small, expensive and seem to be watered-down.
The bar shape gets a bit crowded during a weekend night. It would have done so much for the layout to expand the space where the customers stand. The bartenders have more room to move around.
The food is typical. I think a more classy food approach would have gone well with the atmosphere. However, it still is a bowling alley, so it is kind of expected.
Overall, if this place was in a different town, I think it would have been a fantastic place for a night out for activities. Don't expect much from the service, but the live music is worth a check, most of the time. The atmosphere is cosmic, with dim lighting. It's a place to stop in and check out, if your in the Ligonier area.

Didn't have any food but they had some decent drafts on tap. A great place to learn the folly of drinking too much Pumking. If it weren't attached to a bowling alley, it would be a hell of a neo-dive.
