AMF Hoffman Lanes

I’m gonna miss this place. Had many a memorable moments there. My son had such a great birthday party there and we had scout nights there as well. Great place to bowl and hang out.

CLOSED
Gonna miss driving by that sign as a landmark.

Lots of fun

2 hrs bowling for 15 pp on a Saturday night woohoo! The place was clean, updated, and friendly. The Saturday night crowd was very mixed. I saw lots of families and groups of friends. Drinks are cheap too ~4 $. The two hour deal is really worth it.

Oh my god, so much fun. So there was an offer this week — from July 21 to 27, $ 10 for unlimited bowling. Soo good. They have pool tables and some food as well, drinks are also served. I can definitely see myself coming here in the future. Played 6 games over 2.5 hrs with another friend of mine. Really had fun — Sunday evening bowling it away.

Bowling allies. Ick.
Fresh air and sunshine are my idea of a good time, and both of those are in short supply in bowling establishments. This place is no exception. We lived nearby for years and never went (if I ever want to bowl, clean and perky Pinstripes it is). But a family event that was beyond my control required us to visit today, and I was unsurprised by what I found.
How did this building get to be so hideous? It’s like whoever designed it and decorated the exterior was striving for ugliness. That red roof.
I suppose everything about the game was fine… shoes, balls, lanes were all in working order. They had one ramp for small children to use, the kind that allows them to roll their ball down the lane more easily. We didn’t try the food, but there were pitchers of water available at the bar, which I thought was nice.
The bathroom smelled awful, looked awful, had faucet handles missing and cracked sinks.
Its saving grace were the two ladies working today (Mothers Day), both grandmas themselves, and the bar tender, all who were cheerful and friendly.

We recently used AMF Hoffman Lanes for a child birthday party. The onsite staff members were very flexible and willing to adjust lane assignments and help train us on the new lane/​scoring system. They were very courteous and friendly. They checked on us throughout the party time and never turned down any request. This performance is consistent with previous visits to the same facility. Will definitely recommend and visit again.

Stopped in for a quick drink to pass time. Didnt realize how clean the place was. The bar has a definite old school and comforting feel. Great and friendly service. Ill deginitely be back.

I love this alley. I was on a league here for 3 years. Great lanes, great food, great staff, and great karaōke venue!

Nice family feel bowling alley. On Saturday night they had karaōke at the bar. Had a couple if beers and good laughs. Staff was friendly.

It’s clean, well maintained, equipment is updated, and the staff is very friendly and attentive. The food here is actually really tasty. They run specials, so sign up for their email blasts. As a former league bowler, I would bowl here regularly.

Came here to bowl for my bf’s work event. I believe there were about 10 – 15 of us and we were put on two lanes. The facility itself is clean and updated. They have a separate bar and it looked like they might also offer karaōke. They also have decent food options for a bowling alley. We ordered a pizza and nachos and both were tasty.

The place is pretty clean. the prices are ok but the staff is nice. We went there with our 5 year old that got the ball stuck in the lane a few times and the staff was happy to help, the food /​drink service was fast. Plus, upon paying we got some by one get one free coupons to come back and bowl again.

Ok so you guys probably think I am nuts but I drive from Albany Park to here almost every Saturday night to bowl. You can’t beat the price it is $ 13 per person for 10 – 1. I like to actually bowl. You can keep your cyber lights for the club. The lanes are clean and their food is amazing! Try their burgers, they cook them on charcoal UNBELIEVEABLE and worth every penny. If you are craving something sweet thier brownie bites do not disappoint. You can keep Diversey Bowl and Waveland and follow me to AMF Hoffman.
