Wide view of a brightly lit bowling center with many lanes, modern overhead scoring monitors, and a colorful mural.

Chicago, IL

Roll up. Let's make noise.

Lanes that glow, an arcade that fights dirty, fries worth a fistfight. Loud on Fridays, kid-chaos on Saturdays, open way too late. Snag a lane in thirty seconds โ€” no app, no fuss, no judgment.

Food was good, nothing was burnt or overcooked and all staff had no problem helping us or servicing us! The overall lanes and entire place felt nostalgic and nothing was overdone. Overall, ambiance was great and great place!

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need a reservation?
Walk-ins are welcome anytime, but Friday and Saturday nights fill up fast โ€” come early to grab a lane.
How much does a game cost?
Open bowling runs a few bucks a game per person and shoe rental is included. Family Hour and Glow Bowl have their own flat rates โ€” check the Pricing section.
Do you have bumper lanes?
We sure do โ€” bumpers go up on any lane so the littlest bowlers knock 'em down right alongside everyone else.
Can I bring my own ball?
Absolutely. Bring your own ball, bag, and shoes, or grab everything you need right here at the front desk.
Do you serve food and drinks?
You bet โ€” the Pub & Pizza kitchen sends hand-tossed pies, hot baskets, and ice-cold beer straight to your lane until close.
