This is one of my favorite places in Lakewood. It's a bar/music venue/bowling alley with a divey, but not too divey feel. It's set up kind of weird, with a big venue room off to one side, the bar on the other side, most bowling lanes upstairs. a few lanes downstairs with another smaller venue and bar for music. So you can switch up the crowd or just post up and have a good time really anywhere.
They have a pretty good beer selection, but I usually go with $3 cans of Dale's Pale Ale. The bartenders are usually pretty friendly and quick. They have some basic bar food available if you get the munchies. The people running the alley are always friendly too. One important note - this bowling alley is old school - you need to keep your own score! So either go with someone that knows what they are doing, download an app (there's probably an app for that, right?), or just go out there and have fun without keeping score. The only complaint I have is that I left my coat sittin on a chair in the alley and it was stolen, with my keys being thrown into the street. Luckily a staff member found the keys and brought them in. At least the thief was that kind! So beware, I would keep an eye on your belongings there - or maybe I just had some bad luck that particular night.
