Olivette Lanes

Great time at moonlight madness!

Great service. We came here for a company team building event. Prices were great, staff was wonderful, and the food was good. Great time had by all! Thank you for such great service!

Nice little cosmic bowling place! Attached is a small bar with food and the food was pretty good. Everything was very 90s so it was fun seeing all the bowling animations. The staff was friendly and it wasn't too busy for a Friday night.

This place is so much fun but the biggest reason to go is they have these extremely awesome fried pickles and fried green beans that are to die for omg these are so good and they dipping sauce is a bonus...Have Sum you won't be disappointed

Great fun for my little girl and myself. Friendly helpful staff and nice facilities. Annie loved her grilled ham and cheese 🧀

I'm a senior, 75 years old, who was looking for a low key bowling league. I found a really fun one that met that parameter at Olivette Lanes. This is about as stress free as it gets. For starters, I didn't have to wait for the next "bowling season." I emailed the bowling alley and they said they had a seniors league that meets on Wednesdays, and to just show up at noon whenever I wanted to start. I went the following Wednesday and spoke with "Miss Mel" at the counter. It was just $7 for 3 games and she signed me up and told me I'd be on lane 4. I changed into my bowling shoes and put my ball on the rack. Shortly thereafter, a man named Jim showed up and then a woman named Ruby. They were my "teammates." Now for the zero stress part. It's a "just for fun" league. You don't compete against any other teams, you just bowl for fun. They don't put out weekly stat sheets, and there's zero pressure to score high games - just what you put on yourself to meet your expectations. The reason the bowling cost is so low is that they don't give out prize money, however, there are many ways to win money. If a purple pin appears in the number 1 slot and you knock it down on your first turn you get a quarter. If you score a strike with the purple pin in front you get 50 cents. I know it's not much, but it's fun to win those quarters. They also sell 50/50 tickets and call out the winning numbers throughout the afternoon, another chance to win some money. Some of the bowlers do poker. You pay $3 into the pot, and get a card for each strike or spare. At the end of the game the winner is the person with the best poker hand. The people I have met so far have all been super nice, and I felt comfortable right away. The staff are all very nice as well. That's why I keep coming back week after week. When you bowl lousy people commiserate with you, and when you do well they cheer you on.
