Owners and employees are great they have done a large update. Great place to bowl and have fun
North Bowl is a staple of Spokane. The older gentleman usually working the front and the shop is genuine and knows his stuff when it comes to getting you fitted. The younger gentleman with the beanie usually on helping out the back of house and everywhere is also genuine and acknowledges me and my group every time we are there. This place is great for everyone looking to have fun. And the cocktail waitress, I wish I was better with names, but she was Hawaiian or of Pacific islander descent, was also very helpful and fast with orders. Be sure to tip well because it will only come back to you!
Bowled their cash bowling recently. Had fun.
Neat little bowling alley with an arcade type thing. Great place to take your kids during the day because it gets loud at night from all the drinkers.
Great food and drinks cheap fun for everyone
The staff always takes good care of us! The food is good. I’ve seen other reviews that say it’s pricey, but I imagine that maintenance and insurance can’t be cheap overhead costs for a bowling alley. It’s cheap enough that my family of 6 has a great night everytime! Thanks north bow!👍
Pizza was amazing pro shop knows what theyre doing bowled five strikes in a row with the 900 global zen!!! And Their pro shop drilled it I love this place!!!
Great lanes, and great staff!I had a good time.
Took the family for a couple game an then ate food qn played the games an had a blast I remembered my dad playing in league an even hit a couple 300 games when I was their North bowl will always have a good memory in my mind
They only have truly for seltzer beEwell. lol.get coronas or white claws please;).
Fun family outing. Super friendly staff
Fantastic customer service and the moonlight bowling after 8 was so fun 😀
Best bang for your buck! Great fun for all ages.
The food was good. And everything was fine until the lane started screwing up. I told the guy twice. Didnt fix it. So we just left. Hope others have better experience.
Lovely place. only thing, the lanes that are being redone, is a little bit of an inconvenience. also, i recommend not going right when they open. go 2 hours after they open and it won’t be so busy
This is a classic night out with the family or share a pitcher with friends bowling alley. The prices are fare and everybody that works there is super friendly and chill.
We watched the big labowski and went bowling. Had a lot of fun. Beer is very expensive. But this place is fun. Will go back.
Fun for group events, food is expensive for what it actually offers but it is bar food. Drinks are cheap and offers various days of discounts at various hours, worth a try.
Went there with an express group, the staff was very helpful and the facilities were very clean, had a great time!
New owners turning this place around! many improvements and the food is amazing!
Great place. Lots of remodeling and lane improvements.
Love bowling here. Great staff. Awesome people. Family atmosphere
Enjoyed the people there. Prices are reasonable and the restaurant has awesome food.
Customer service was great, the cook was all smiles. She was great
All the staff was very friendly and made each customer feel welcome😁
Amazing it was my first time their it was interesting and kept wanting to keep playing I loved it
Great basic old school alley
Great place great vibs
I love it there its affordable and fun
Great fun, good people, you should go
Lanes were oiled nicely it seemed. Shoes were insanely old and uncomfortable for the first game or so. I love how they have a table per lane, sure beats the one back home. Didnt try the food and only had a can or two of Rainier Beer! Took five games to get a 900 series, so, not too bad I suppose. Now, where can I get dinner at?
Prices went up. If we dont bowl no one bowls. I bowled a half weeks paycheck and it was worth it. We all need to bowl. Or nobodys! Bowling and i need it just not so much. Im fo Go 🎳
Had funNice staffGood equipmentFancy scoreboards
Nice people, very friendly
Really fun place staff is great.
Nice, enjoyable
Nice remodel
Go bowling! It makes you happy. When is the last time you heard someone say that was a good day, but darn...I wish we didnt go bowling...?This is your basic bowling alley. Nothing fancy, but they have food and adult beverages.
Very helpful. The pro shop awesome 👌
Fun place good vibe
Awesome place, great service, and totally affordable..
Love this place. food is yummy. prices fair. service is on point. been going here over 20+ years. always a fun time.
GREAT Staff and lots of fun
Older alley but reasonably kept. People there seem really nice. Nothing fancy, no casino/card room. Pretty good food though!
Just like a normal bowling alley... Only better. (To me at least) There are multiple isles, an arcade center, dining room, a bar (21+ only) But I do recommend it for those people who havent been there before. So yeah! You should check it out sometime and just look around and have a good time there and I wish you a very merry Christmas and enjoy the rest of your day! Good luck! ;)
Best place in town to bowl. Cheapest prices and friendly staff. Gather your friends for a fun night.
So fun
Loved it. Its not fancy. Its a place to go if you just want to bowl. The price is very reasonable and the staff are friendly. It has a 90s vibe to it, and will definitely give you flashbacks.
Bad and slow service got all are orders wrong
Great as always. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Food and bar are great. There is always fun to be har
😝
Very nice people. I love the table set up and that each lane gets their own area. The fries were fabulous, the drinks were poured well and the staff was sweet as hell.Moved to North Bowl from Hugo’s on the Hill for our bowling night out, and there’s NO comparison! North Bowl wins hands down. It’s what a bowling alley SHOULD be.
Super fun, great food, amazing service. All the workers were super personable. All the prices were reasonable.
The little arcade is great, and the menu is really extensive at the restaurant. Some of the arcade games were not working/unplugged and didnt have out of order signs so my kid wasted his tokens on them not knowing it wasnt working. Keep an eye out for that and you should have a fun time!
Great place to go for good fun.
League bowling there is fun, though some upkeep is a bit lacking. The gentleman that drilled my custom bowling ball was phenomenal.
Great service, great games... Lots of things to do while you wait to bowl. Def recommend!!😇
It is what it is. Perfect bowling experience, food and drink. I got exactly what I paid for and had a great time.
Nice old time bowling alley. Good prices and friendly staff. Lot and exterior are run down but the lanes are nice.
Me and my wife decided on northbowl for my sons birthday party. The staff was awesome and the food was great. I would definitely do this again well worth the price.
This was our first time coming here but definitely not the last. Friendly staff and fast service. Our group had a lot of fun.
We just started a bowling 3 weeks ago and I love this place. The staff I friendly and personable. Their food is good, the smell ofv their fries make my moth water!
Typical bowling alley that is family friendly. Food is typical, might be fine for the younger crowd, but I found it lacking. Bowling is great and rented a lane for two hours. Lots of fun!
Fun place to Bowl! I go every Saturday for the 10:00am breakfast and bowl. Three games, breakfast and shoe rental for 13.00 per person. Not a bad deal at all.
Great atmosphere, great service, but the last time I took my two sons and myself to bowl 2 games it cost me 45 bucks as opposed to the 27 diñeros it cost me, the boys, and the missus not 18 months ago. I understand inflation and all, but a nearly 90% markup?? No thank you sir. Next time we will be going to Valley Bowl and save my hard earned clams!
We had our daughters 12th Birthday party here recently and it was a great experience! They had a party room all done up - we had a specific attendant who checked often to be sure we were doing well. Everyone was great. Weve done parties at other locations and this was, by far, the best experience! I highly recommend it to others!
We were there for our office team building! The BBQ was delicious!!!! The owners are so kind and loving! Had a great time!!! Thank you North Bowl!!!
Great time always. Nice place and friendly staff
It was very fun!!! It had been 20 plus years since I had bowled in Spokane!! The employees were very friendly and professional!! Great place to and celebrate my boyfriends 52 birthday!!! He had a blast!!!
Wonderful happy time at birthday party. Kids were having so much fun. The people who work there are exceptionally nice. Would go back next year and definitely recommend it as a place for anyones Birthday Party!
Got like a 62 score but wow I had fun.
We brought a large group of men and their sons to bowl and eat. One person paid for 15 bowlers, plenty of food, and two pitchers of beer. The young guy working seemed aggravated that we were there. Had a great time until the very end. Unfortunately, one of our guys brought in some outside beer (he shouldnt have). The young kid came over and announced that we were being kicked out. This was at the very end when only the dads (who didnt bring in the beer) and their kids were left bowling. Most of us were confused and the kids were upset because we were thrown out. Maybe that is the consequence but it seems things could have been handled a little more gracefully. A simple, hey, you cant have that in here. Or We have to take that. Instead of I am shutting your lanes down, you need to get out. In the end, if you are going to kick people out then you should pull an adult aside (maybe the guy who paid) and tell him.
Great place to bowl!! Great prices and friendly staff!! Would highly recommend if your looking for something fun to do!!
Gone here for mulitiple family party and with friends love this place
Great value for the money! Had a great time. Havent bowled since moving here, and was really happy to find this place. Fully air conditioned too!
Kids had a ball. They have a summer program where kids get 2 free games everyday except for shoe rentals.
Love the pub food while bowling. Favorite alley!
Everybody there is always so friendly. Stopped to eat and had forgotten his large the regular nacho was. Enough for 2 people to eat and a big carry out box.
Lotz of fun and in expensive
We bowl on a league here every Sunday, lanes arent bad. Plus Max, Don and Red are always super great!
Son wanted to go bowling so we were in the area thought wed try a new place to bowl. So not impressed. $26 for 2 games for 2 people. Slow service, old school with bumpers but they dont tell you that unless you inquire after your son starts to get upset cause there no button for the bumpers. Once the bumpers are up, you have to play with them up there no up and down between bowlers. Not ever being there before I went up to say the lane wasnt lit it up, the person at the counter told me how to make it work, not something that self explaining. The lane we were on didnt count the pins correctly so our scores were off, didnt count any spares or strikes. Told the person at the counter when I turned my shoes in, was told hed tell the manager. Which in my mind we shouldve gotten a game on them. Had several people standing behind the counter when my son wanted to turn in his games tickets, took forever before he was even acknowledged and that was only after I got tired of him getting impatient that I finally spoke up. Not impressed. Waste of money. Wont be back. Dont recommend.
Great value for hosting bowling league with pipeline pizza!
New interior paint looks great. It really brings some life to the old building.
Great place for loud and obnoxious drunks. Dont bring your kids there on a league night though, unless youre raising them to be loud and obnoxious.And the lanes are filthy. My ball gets coated with gunk, and has been chipped and scratched. They need to try proper maintenance techniques. Ill never bowl the again.
We set up a Unified Sports bowling team and are practicing out of North Bowl. it was quite a process to get set up and they were very patient with my lack of knowledge and with the process in general. They have been extremely accommodating to our team. I would highly recommend them for teams who may need some help :)
Older building but the lanes seem fine and the staff is very friendly
Lanes are a lot better so if a bowler messes up its on them
Bowling.What is there to say? This place is your typically 90s bowling alley that just refuses to die. Its got an awesome nostalgic feel that throws you back.The food and bowling are overpriced. If you come, take advantage of one of their discount nights, like 5$ unlimited bowling after 9PM on Sundays for employees of the Food Service Industry. Not worth coming here in the middle of the day for more than 10$.The perk to this place is that the staff are very kind and easy going - this characterizes the whole experience. Its worth noting the facilities are what you might consider sketchy, but its a bowling alley, and for some, thats part of the appeal. Dont expect to use the restrooms.
Great satff very friendly amazing service extremely great prices definitely highly recommended. Paid for game went over to grab some food took about 10 minutes for the cook to come out and take her order food came out hot fresh really amazing chicken. When the cook came out and and brought our food said if you need anything else come on back and holler for me. Went back about 10 minutes later to grab some more fries I holler back at him three times pretty good couldnt find him five minutes later I decided Im not getting more fries. All in all the cook is amazing the staffs incredible Great Plains amazing food fun games. A place to go and have fun. Highly recommended
Long waiting times, for bowling as well as the food. The food was great but overall an average experience of bowling and the lanes glitched too, had to go and talk to get it fixed.
Nice bowling deals, decent food, but our lane kept having glitches throughout several games. Machine freezing up, and switching players Ball kept getting stuck in the machine or not cycling back up.
