I know many people like the bowling alley on 164th st. It is newly remodeled and everything is pretty clean. However, I am used to bowling at Kenmore Lanes and I was not impressed. Not only was the night really expensive, I had to give them one of my shoes to rent a pair of bowling shoes. I realize that they don't want people to steal but I felt like they were already treating me like I was going to. And it was pretty uncomfortable walking to the lane with just one shoe one (I didn't want to hold up the line by putting on my shoes there). And then, the seats. The seats are crazy! They kind of swivel out but don't stay put so I feel like I'm going to be slammed back into the table. On the whole, it was pretty fun, but that's only because of the person I was with. Next time we go bowling, I'm going to Kenmore lanes where it is cheaper, has a full bar and less children.
