This establishment has been closed since Covid-19 began. Not sure if it will ever reopen. It was a good place for family entertainment and for league bowling.

Free 5 dollar game card with a yelp check in.
Nice parking for sure, plenty of spots so don`t worry about driving here, however have a designated driver cause u will definitely need it.
They have some awesome little foods and you should try their burgers. their fries are great to share. quick service and pretty nice staff.
The place is HUGE!!! they have plenty of lanes also at night the lights are super fun and neon at the lanes, they have some great music going on and the music videos for the songs play along at the TV screens. it is a great bowling experience for sure.
If the bowling is not your thing of you are done with it, there is not reason to leave yet, they have a MASSIVE amount of arcade games! and they are great! we had loads of fun at the arcade after the game at the lanes was over. they also have a brand new room escape that you can experience with your friends but keep in mind that you will have to pay a entry fee for that.
The bar lets you open a tab and you can keep the party going while at the arcade!
We had a great time here and i definitely will recommend this place for a night of fun and games! plenty of games!!! but do bring a DD cause you will probably drink plenty while in this venue.
Go have some lanes fun and let me know about your experience.

Went on a Friday and they had a special,
$15/2 hrs per person, we had lots of fun. We ordered cheese fries from the snack bar which was a huge portion, prices were reasonable, the lanes and seating are a little crowded since the seats are not able to move only swivel. There was a live band that performed over a few of the lanes and played great 80's & 90's alternative/rock music. If you forget socks there is a vending machine that sells them $5 a pair and you bowl once for free. Nice big arcade game area as well but a little too pricey!

This bowling center was recently remodeled to include a great snack bar and drink bar that serves cold beer and mixed drinks. They offer 99 cents per game bowling on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. They also have a remodeled video arcade for the kids and wanna be kids again.
It's conveniently located on the interstate 10 eastbound access road just past De Zavala road. Same parking lot as Krispy Kreme donuts.

We bowl on a league here but also bowl for fun. Can't beat the $.99 per game during the daytime. They have a bar and great snack bar.

Enjoyed the fresh, clean smell upon entering the door. Bowling was made fun with energetic music, interactive screens, personalized score board, and glow-in-the-dark bowling pins. My family and I will return to take advantage of all the other fun additions (snack bar, videi games, and air hockey)

The best place to bowl in San Antonio!!! Very friendly and helpful staff. We had to wait for a lane....the wait wasn't long at all. The first time I came here with friends in June from OKC. We enjoyed the live band. The second time with my husband in July. I like the bowler select options..like the choice of using a selfie..that's kooool. We will definitely be back!! There's not enough stars to give this place their true rating.

University bowl is the best place ive been bowling. They recently redid there entire game room/bar area/pool tables and seating for bowling. Definitely the cleanest place ive ever bowled at. They also upgraded their balls to be color coordinated to help you easily find the right ball, I bring my own ball and shoes but the color coordinated balls I think is a really helpful idea. They offer some great special deals where you can bowl for discounted price which is explained on their website(Definitely worth checking out in order to save some cash). Food court is what you'd expect from a bowling alley but not too bad. The chicken fried steak sandwich is actually pretty dang good. But the bowling experience is the best I've had in S.A. and their arcade games are pretty over the top.

Very nice bowling alley off of Interstate 10 near DeZavala. It is exceptionally clean and they have a very enthusiastic staff working there. They have very nice lanes with touch screens. A bar is located at the end of the space which makes it nice to get Margaritas, beer or whatever you are in the mood for. There is a very nice snack bar that serves just about everything and it is freshly made. I had the 3 taco dinner with rice and beans for $6.99 and it was great! Great place to meet up with friends and have a good time. They have specials going on according to the day of the week. Check them out online.
