Carroll’s Bowling Lanes

5 pin bowling was invented in Toronto in the early 20^th century for the well to do whose wrists became fatigued after 10 pin bowling. The balls are significantly smaller and there are 5 pins worth between 2 and 5 points.
At first I was hesitant about going to Carroll’s, from Street View it looked like it was the basement of a house which made me feel slightly apprehensive because I have watched too many Lifetime movies. It seems sketchy but I assure you that I was not murdered and it is actually a cute little bowling alley.
They serve Molson and Bud Light on tap, have candy and other snacks as well. We went on a weekend evening and shoe rental was free, each game was $ 4 per person, you have to keep score on a sheet yourself but it isn’t hard. There is also a Jukebox.
There is a really nice gentleman who has been working there for 35 years but the place has been there since 1938 who is helpful.
