Glo-Bowl Fun Center

Decent food. Friendly staff. Beautiful building and it is CLEAN. Love it…

Facility is great. Workers are great. Oil pattern inconsistent, owners know nothing about running bowling alley. Always cutting corners. Machines breakdown, expensive, pro shop is ok but more of a side business. Recommended to go to Woodstock or Rockford, il. This is more of just a fun place when you have nothing else to do.

My husband & I bowled there last week and had a great time. We went in the afternoon as there were no leagues going on and were able to get right it. The place has a restaurant (which we did not try), an arcade and it looked like it had a room where bingo might have been taking place. A nice place that we will go to again.

We had a great time last night at Glo-​Bowl! Our group of 20 bowling kids and their parents loved the atmosphere. A special mention to Sandy for helping us plan a great event, what amazing service! And props to the Manager who checked on us multiple times and made us feel very welcome!
We’ll definitely be back!

Ended up spending an evening here while I was in town visiting family a couple weeks ago. What a great place. A pristine bowling facility, a restaurant/​bar with about as expansive a menu as I’ve seen with very reasonable prices, an impressive arcade and a very sweet and attentive staff. I’m a big city boy but I visited Marengo throughout my life because of family. I always enjoy my time because its refreshing for me to remind myself of the charm and warmth that exists in this more rural type picturesque town. All that being said, a place like this has sorely been needed here. It’s the perfect environment to spend time with family (or friends I’d imagine). Was just really impressed with everything about the place and I loved the vibe in there where everybody seemed to know everybody. Thanks guys at the glo bowl, for a great evening and I wish you the best.

We’ve been here twice, both with Groupons (hope they offer them more!!).
This past time was a groupon for 2 hours of bowling & shoe rental for 4, a large 1-​topping pizza and a pitcher of pop.
It was great. The pizza was good, the bowling was fun, my kids had a blast.
It’s not as crazy loud as Brunswick Zone tends to be, but this is also a smaller alley in the first place. Nice arcade there, restaurant on site, and they’ve got a room as well which looks like it’s for parties or other group events. Bathrooms are clean, and actually smell nice (they must’ve had some hidden air freshener somewhere because it had a nice springy smell).

The four star rating is not equal to a Chicago four star rating, but for Marengo, this is four stars. Fresh lettuce made for a nice salad with good dressing. Steak was good, not super high quality meat, but cooked well. Ample supply of veggies came with the steak and that is always appreciated. I also enjoyed the lemon butter option. The service was great and friendly.

Great place for bowling and drinks. The arcade for kids is pretty good and its not so over the top that you can’t even think without being bombarded by flashing lights and sirens. It’s a nice place with friendly staff and good food. The attached restaurant is much better than you would expect from a bowling establishment and they really cater to children. This is a good place to watch a game, bowl, play video games and have food and drinks with some family and friends.

They have great weekly specials. Good food and great entertainment. Such a great place to get together in this small town we have.

It’s a bowling alley. Also inside is the Trio Grill restaurant. This is what I am Unilocaling about. Great food, Good drinks, daily specials, live music, and the staff strives to be the best. They act as they all own a piece of the business and not just a minimum wage paid flunky. With this in mind you know you will get great service and quality food, cause if you don’t they will make it right.
