Palos Lanes

I tried the BLT at the snack bar. I thought it was excellent in addition to being a great value.

Horrible place, horrible customer service and an unprofessional so called manager (Dave). He did not honor our coupon claiming its must be printed when the coupon did not have any bar codes to require printing. We are out of state and visitors to the state and no access to a printer. He did not ask us for a coupon nor disclosed the requirements.
That is an FTC regulation violation which we will be filing. Also we will be filing a BBB report. You all do the same.
The place is filthy and does not offer anthing as far as snacks which I understand why.

Bar is nice. The bowling area and lanes are also pretty nice. The people that work the counter are very rude. They close early and won’t let you bowl extra games. The old guy that works the counter closes early and is a grumpy person. Good stinks too.

Came for a VFW event.

I’ve bowled here a few times and I’ve bowled in their annual no-​tap tournament 3 years in a row. The staff is ridiculously ornery. They act like they’re doing me a favor taking my $$$ for their tournament. I haven’t gone one tournament without being yelled at or disrespected in some way.
Their lanes are crap. They don’t oil for their tournaments. They don’t oil for practice bowling. You may as well bowl on a stack of 2×4’s.

The owner and staff are pretty rude. We were a group of seven and we wanted 4 lanes and we had to argue about it when the whole place was nearly empty anyways!

We bowl here on Sunday nights, and I’m fairly pleased with our choice in local lanes. Full-​sized alley and bar, sporting quick service fast food to pair with your Miller Lite buckets. An old school vibe inside, complete with wooden chair, tables, and only the finest bowling shoe smell. Not usually crowded, and an easy place to stop in and commence to open bowling. If we lived closer, it’d be our go-​to alley.

Old school bowling alley but a really fun time! They have a «grill» of sorts and the food that comes outta there is great for bowling alley food. My daughter gets the grilled cheese and it’s literally homemade, she loves it!
The lanes aren’t too oily & they serve up a pretty stiff drink.
They also have a pro shop, if you’re interested!

Piece of garbage. The owner is the rudest man on earth. Don’t go here. Tell your friends tell your neighbors. Tell Randy Gonzalez.

I bowled here on a league for a while, mostly because it was a good location for a bunch of friends to get together.
The people are not necessarily friendly and most of them take bowling quite seriously.
Lots of free parking.

Do not bowl here! Expensive bowling, overpriced drinks, rude staff, and no music. The sign on the door should say 50 and up.

The perfect place for people who bowl. Not a party place with troublemakers. The center has been recently redone and it looks great.
The staff is friendly and the food in the new kitchen is really good.
Lots of weekly specials.
Lots of leagues to join if you’re interested.
Been going here for 4 years and I recommend it to people who like to bowl :)
Cash only, but the ATM allows you to pull out in $ 10 increments.

I like this bowling alley. It’s very convenient to my work location, so if I end up staying late, I can run in for a Bowl Your Head Off deal (Mon or Weds) which is $ 9 from 9:30 pm until midnight.
Otherwise, you do have to call ahead and check their prices because it is a little on the high side for open bowling.
The only other caution I would add is that Bowl Your Head Off is supposed to start at 9:30 pm, but during league season it’s actually when the leagues finish. NOT when a lane opens up: they want most of the teams on their way out before they’ll assign an open lane. If you’re a night owl, that’s fine, but if not you may have to wait 15 or 20 minutes.
I thought the staff was professional and not rude, They weren’t overly friendly, but that was okay – I came to bowl, not hang out with the bartender.

They seem to cater to their 90 year old clientele. Unhelpful staff and pretty expensive for bowling.

Looking for a good place to hang out with your friends? Well this is definately not the place. I would rather get a root canal done then return. It was just so quiet in there cause they don’t play any music. If you don’t have cash you better make a pit stop at the ATM cause they don’t except credit cards either. They close their diner early, so lucky there was a pizza hut across the street, which surprisingly they didn’t yell at us for bringing in outside food because the staff seemed pretty strict. I would literally describe them as bowling alley Nazis. I guess this place is fun if your 70, but If your in your 20’s stay away and save your cash.

Very old lanes (furniture, etc). The management is very rude.
The place is always empty because of this. Smells like smoke inside. I think I’ve seen the bartender smoking at the bar & trying to hide it.
I would only go here if I didn’t feel like driving farther to one of the bowling alleys in Tinley, Orland or Oak Lawn.
The only plus for this place is that they always have lanes open. But their prices are slightly higher than other bowling alleys in the area and every other bowling alley is much better than this one.
