A group of 11 of us met up at Foward Lanes last night for a surprise birthday gathering for a friend. Not only was the company great, but the venue was a lot of fun, too! Yes, it's a little divey - and I was mildly concerned that the stairs leading to the bowling alley were going to collapse as we entered and exited - but it's actually pretty swanky compared to other local bowling alleys (such as Dormont Lanes).
Though the beverage options were limited, there was a little something for everyone with options such as Bud Light, Yuengling, and Woodchuck Cider. The staff was very nice and polite, and the bathrooms were even (shockingly!) clean.
