Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! If I had one word that sums up Park Lanes this would be the word! What bowling alley has outdoor patio seating ,32 beers on tap and vegetarian nibbles other than a soft pretzel as an option? If you are meat shy please try the veggie jar. Yes really... This establishment used to be a slice from the 70's okay maybe 80's in major need of an overhaul and the renovation really does the place justice. Very smart thinking on the owner''s part.
Now onto the important aspects of park lanes: The bowling balls coming from a lightweight as myself I was pleased to locate not a 6 or 8 pound ball but yes a 7 pounder right up my alley no pun intended( aka 6 to light 8 too heavy). If you are on the opposite end of the spectrum and do not own your own shiny orb fear not there are plenty of 12 and 14 pound balls to choose from. Hooray! I really suck at bowling so an opportunity to make it less painful is appreciated (aka. food, brink and ball selection). For serious bowling types don't despair Park Lanes accommodates those that have more at stake than just ball size and a beer. There are leagues for every age and type.Put your competition hat on if you are truly serious! The lanes are in excellent shape especially if you can throw more than a gutter ball unlike myself. Another important aspect is the condition of the "watercloset" the loos are very clean a factor to consider when libations are involved. On a final note I do appreciate the automatic scoring and its precision accuracy.
