| - I don't normally go bowling, and my preconceived notion of what a bowling alley would be like contributed to my aversion. My employer hosted a bowling party for the employees and I went along to be part of the team. I was surprised and impressed with the Christown Lanes. First, I arrived early and opted to sit in the bar and have a soft drink...What a place! It is quiet, clean and richly and very tastefully appointed. The bar was attractive and in my opinion, very un bowling alley like...I would consider going there just to meet with friends and unwind. Next door is a diner, and while the menu may be basic, it did have salads and wraps and other non fried items. I ordered a hamburger and fries and opted to dine in the bar/lounge area. The bar tender brought me my food and kept refilling my soda...he was very personable too...
Bowling was nice too. The lanes were very clean, balls were available in many weights, finger sizes and configurations, and keeping score was easy and automatic. The rental shoes (another concern of mine) were clean and fresh and fit me just right.
In short, for a good time, a good environment, and good food and drink..visit the Christown Lanes.
