Cal Bowl

Went for karaōke on Saturday night. .got there around 12 20 am. .Last call for alcohol is 12 30 am. .glad I asked because they didn’t tell us. Got a pitcher $ 15 not too bad I guess. Karaōke was nothing to go back for or maybe we got there too late. The restrooms in the bowling alley were disgusting. .I had to tell the person that works there that they needed attention quick. there was a smell and trash all over the floors and trash falling out the trash cans. They really need a restroom attendant! Won’t be back I can’t go places with Nasty restrooms. If not for the restrooms wouldn’t given 4 stars.

This place is a pretty darn huge bowling alley! LOTS of lanes and boy was it busy. Arrived around 7:30pm on a Wednesday night. The flow of people seemed to die down around 8:30/9pm but still a decent number. Came hhere with a few friends and they allowed 5 names on one lane. If you’re trying to input a funny name, the screen only shows full names of three letters. Any longer than that and it only shows the first letter. Shucks.
Anyways, theres an impressive arcade immediately to your left when you walk in. Further into the building to the right theres a bar/​restaurant and to the far right theres a special private lanes area. Says «cosmic bowling» on the wall but I’m sure you can rent it out for private events. Speaking of which, there was a birthday going down in the corner. Nice.
Food wise, there seems to be a froyo location of some sort to the far left. There also is a bakery type restaurant immediately to your right at the entrance! Definitely many options both inside and out! If you want some other food there are plenty of places around the area!
Overall a very nice, old school feeling bowling alley. Definitely a place to have an event or just bowl with friends :)

This place is freaking awesome. I haven’t bowled in ages. Mostly because I’m a bit scared to use other people’s shoes and well I don’t know where to buy bowling shoes.
But the shoe rentals here are actually super clean. The lanes are maintained really well. There is a huge variety of balls, so walk around and find the one that’s right for you. And you game will be pretty awesome!!!
Also, at the end, you can ask for a print out of your score. So if you come here on a memorable date, keep the scorecard as a memorabilia.
The reason for the 4 star review is because I felt that the staff could have been a bit more friendlier. They were just there without much enthusiasm! Oh well, I guess not everyone is excited about bowling.
Awesome thing is that there is an arcade attached to the bowling area. So come out, have a game, and then go win some tickets in the arcade. Relive some childhood memories! If you don’t have any, come make some!

People say this place is old and outdated, but you know how the saying goes «if it ain’t broke don’t fix it». I have been coming to this bowling alley for many years, for recreational bowling, on a bowling league, birthday parties, karaōke, and I have even celebrated New Years Eve here, and had a great time. I love everything about this bowling alley, the customer service, bowling shop, the bar, karaōke, arcade, and the food is surprisingly pretty good. They keep the place very clean and the lanes are a bowlers paradise. It’s not like all the new fancy bowling alleys popping up, but it is straight up old school and they still get it right here.

I have been going here for 20+ years! I bowled here on the Saturday junior league.
This bowling alley is a bowlers dream from leagues to pro shops and stellar game prices. It tailors to the type of bowler you are!
If bowling is your favorite sport… There’s tournaments, leagues, and a pro shop that will help you select a ball based on your bowling style!
If you want to go out for family fun on a budget… Check out their website to see what nightly deals they have on each night! You can also go out for cosmic bowling on a weekend. Can’t forget about the arcade! However, when j was younger it seemed a lot more fun! Games are a bit more and prizes aren’t that great.
It’s like a family environment as there are regulars that have been there forever!
If you get hungry there are some nice selections of food adjacent to cal bowl: pizza, yogurt, soul food, and some
Fast food within walking distance.
I now live in NorCal… So I miss this bowling alley terribly bc they don’t compare up here!

You can’t go wrong with bowling on a Sunday night in a long holiday weekend. Kids love it and so do adults. I don’t like paying regular price because it can rack up the bill. Look up their specials before you go. I’m planning on buying bowling shoes because I really don’t want to share fungus with anyone. The only thing annoying is when other people in the next lane are playing their annoying pop rap music.

Per hour vs per game. This will depend heavily on the size of your party. There were only two of us this time and it was right to purchase the per game. We went on a Saturday but if you want to go on a weekday, they have specials (like unlimited bowling, yay!).

It’s definitely run down, and Google maps directs you to the empty lot across the street but the staff is friendly enough, clean bathrooms, and they have a great pizza joint nearby– Pino’s!

This is a pretty cool bowling alley. There were many things for the whole family to do here… there’s a restaurant, a pizza parlor, a yogurt spot and a snack bar. They have special discounts throughout the week… Wednesday’s & Thursday nights after 9:00pm for $ 7.00 cover charge there is a quarter mania special which includes pizza, games, rental shoes, soda and hot dogs all for $.75. Pretzels for $ 1.25, Tutti-​Frutti for $.25, shots for $ 3.00, Bud Draft Beer for $ 2.25. They have a arcade, cosmic bowling with disco lights, lounge with a T.V. and Karaōke Night. Would be a cool place for the family or date night.

This place has great customer service, is clean, and in a great location!

Fun and good times for cheap. There specials are good compared to other bowling alleys that I’ve been to. Fun for coworkers, family and friends. However cosmic bowling is only Friday’s and Ssturdays

Since there’s not many bowling alleys any more, this place is going to be busy most of the time. Not an easy place to bowl since they have so many leagues playing out of their. And that is understandable! Here’s the problem, if you like noise, crowded house, kids running around, food and drinks all over the place? Then this is the place for you.
They do have all of the necessities for your need, and the plenty of restaurants near by for a after lunch or dinner.

Since I needed bowling shoes, we decided to walk inside Cal Bowl’s small shoe store. Nothing to make anyone overly excited because their shoe selection is not that great. I am not a professional bowler or do i I have any intention of ever being one, but I know quality shoes if I saw one. The shoes here were unattractive, a limited selection, and uncomfortable. Then there was a black man (the worker) who seemed like he was more interested in selling me shoes rather than helping me. Not cool! If I wanted to browse around without buying anything then let me be. Besides, I would not buy a shoe if it does not fit. The only shoe brands carried here are: Dexter and Brunswick. From what I saw, it literally was the bare minimal of shoes in one store. Would not recommend.
After the quick visit to the shoe store, we headed to the bowling lanes. The guy at the desk checking-​in people/​shoe distributor was not very friendly. $ 4.00 shoes must have been old as the bowling lanes. Disgusting! No matter how much spray the workers applied, it cannot mask the growth of the unknown organism inside those shoes. NOTE TO CAL BOWL: GET RID OF YOUR SHOES. REPLACE THEM FOR THE SAKE OF THE LIVES OF THOSE WHO HAVE TO WEAR THEM. The arcade is in better condition then the shoes rented out to bowling customers.
CAL BOWL IS NOT A FAMILY FRIENDLY PLACE. The lanes are not meant to accommodate young children who want to play. The business has not updated their lanes in what must be … FOREVER! Instead of the rails being automatically raised, you have to find a worker who has to literally go onto the lane and raise the rails with their foot. WTF! The worst part would be the rails would have to stay up the entire duration of the games, which is not fun for the older group of bowlers. Then for some odd reason our lane was uneven causing our ball to tilt to the left. WTF AGAIN! This place is horrible.
I would not bowl here even if they lowered their prices to a penny. My experience here will forever be engrained into my memory as an unfit establishment with poor customer service, who inoculates unknown organisms to those who rent their shoes.
*** May those who enter this building be resistant to the organisms living inside the shoes. AMEN! ***

I come here every Tuesday and the noice level is good for bowlers to concentrate but damn tonite was very different. I understand shouting but shouting for 2 hrs straight and cursing. That’s where security or management has to draw the line. Their are kids trying to have a good time but most of them getting scared everytime someone screams an F word. Security gets paid to make sure that patrons are safe but also let’s patrons know that they have to respect other bowlers. Calm down deeeeeyum come on. But other than that I’ll be back next Tuesday.

Cool clean bowling alley with good music. The pizza wasn’t bad either. Good place for the family…

Beautiful and spacious bowling alley, plenty of lanes, 68 total. 12 are towards the end on the other side sort of hidden. They have an arcade, snack bar, this place is nice. Parking is plentiful.

I can’t complain. I had an awesome time. Went with friends & lovers.
Drunk beer. Got carded for everyones drinks. It was funny and less amusing.
I bowled a ⁶⁵⁄₁₃₀
Friends bowled ¹¹⁰⁄₁₁₅
Food from outside. I tend to not like bowling alley food.
Ticket games… sucky prizes.
I have yet to have a bad experience.

This place is super happening on Thursday nights apparently. Came here for a work event and I gotta say it’s a good destination for bowling in the area.
The space is clean, the music was old school rad and the employees are nice (though sparse — locating one isn’t the easiest).
The majority of the food is provided by Pino’s Pizza (attached, but also weirdly independent) — their pizza was decent.
Anyway … we did have some issues with the lanes we were on, but nothing catastrophic.
Overall a fun experience and I would come back.
Stay Cheerful ;)

I don’t even want to give this review 1 star.
The place is so dirty. After people eat, they don’t clean up and there are chicken wings, pizzas, and drinks everywhere. They just leave the trash laying around for couple hours (not exaggerating).
The shoes are really sticky. When you step onto the lane to bowl, the shoes stick to the ground a lot. It feels like the shoes are really old so it felt really disgusting.
The machine kept on breaking down. Within 30 minutes of playing, our machine broke 7 times. The machine kept on dispensing the wrong number of pins so we had to keep on resetting it but it didn’t work. The machine froze a couple times. It was a waste of money because we did’t get our full 2 hours. We spent 30 minutes just sitting there because the machine kept on breaking.
There are kids running around everywhere and the workers don’t do anything about it. Adults and kids go onto the lanes and the workers just stand there watching. There are kids that walk onto other people’s lanes. There were multiple kids that stood on the machine that brings the bowling balls back up but the workers didn’t do anything about it. It is dangerous and annoying to have kids running around multiple lanes and almost falling off of machines or slipping on the lanes. There was a worker just watching and not doing anything about it.
