AMF East Meadow Lanes

This place is literally the worst.
My family wanted to enjoy a few games at the lanes. We waited double the amount the time we were told, while 14 out of 48 lanes were being used and the others were «reserved» for the bowling league that started 1.5 hours after we arrived. We waited in the bar section which was absolutely disgusting (plastic cups and crumbs left on table, trash on floor, chairs everywhere) not being cleaned for the entire time we sat there. We waited for over 25 minutes to even be acknowledged if we wanted something to drink. There were a pair of bowling shoes lying on the floor by the pool tables that we watched employees walk by multiple times without even a second thought of someone tripping.
When we asked if we could get a game on the house because we waited for over 1 hour (well past the time we were given to wait) to bowl, we were not greeted with any type of customer service oriented answer, instead we reminded that when we walked in we were told it would be a 45 minute wait. The front desk manager was unprofessional and as the face of a business on a Saturday evening that is unacceptable.
The staff is lazy and rude because the management is amiss. They were clearly short staffed and while that may not be their fault, the CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. During a time when Bowlmor and Lucky Strike make the bowling experience seem like an A-​List event, it’s time to step it up!

Cool bowling atmosphere came her On a Sunday night in March for 3 dollar bowling and 3 dollar shoe rental, that was their Sunday fun day deal which I thought was pretty cool. Big bowling alley with a lot of lanes that were all packed. We had a wait of 30 mins which was no big deal because we made our way to the bar for drinks. Nice little corner bar with all you can ask for. A huge ass pitcher of beer was 14 dollars alittle on the pricey end but it did the job. Finally the workers called our name and we proceeded to bowl I had a great time with great friends here we bowled 4 games and drank and laughed. What’s better than that. Downside were the bathrooms I’ve never seen a more dirtier bathroom in my life Toliet paper all over the stalls and floors. Poop and urine all over the bowls (what a sight). Please east meadow clean your bathrooms it’s a germ infested environment in their.

THE MOST HORRIBLE BOWLING ALLEY. AVOID, AVOID, and AVOID. The staff is EXTREMELY RUDE. Especially the girl in front with the glasses. She needs to get fired ASAP. Pins were coming out missing and there was extreme delay between pins. Despite all the delay, they WILL NOT ACCOMMODATE. They actually blamed us and told us we should have told them earlier. Prices per game has racked up to $ 7.09 and even though there were open lanes they WILL NOT give it to you. The front staff just jokes around, are on their cellphones ALL NIGHT and ignores you. This place is a COMPLETE joke, most DISHONEST business, and has the most IDIOT staff members. AVOID. PLEASE.

I like it here better than the one in garden city. Much cleaner and newer equipment. The mixed drinks are great!

So yeah… this place is literally next door to one of if not my favorite spots to dine and we came here one night while waiting for a table to become free. It was my Babygirl and I first time going bowling (together) and we loved it! It was so much fun! It wasn’t even planned however it wasn’t any less fun!
She’s been wanting to go for a while and being the competitive spirit I am, all I did was talk trash about whooping her when we did get to play and I did nothing short of that! Haha I still love her! ‘Definitely liked the place and the service seemed just fine. I will definitely be making a comeback!
P. S. Feel free to check the box score! For someone who hasn’t bowled in 10+ years I think I did alright.

I came here on a Sunday afternoon on a very hot summer day and the place wasn’t too crowded but enough people.
As soon as we started our game we went to the bar at the end to get some drinks and I have to say the sizes of their drinks are huge which made me very happy.
This place was clean and if you want a place to come have a friendly game this is the perfect place.
Its not updated as many of the bowling Lanes are now its more of a kid/​family friendly type of place.

Hi. I am a league bowler that bowls on Thursday nights. The place changed totally. New management, New staff. There more choices at the snack bar now. The only thing that might be a concern is the house oil pattern. It’s not as consistent from week to week basis as it was before. I might be wrong, but there were a lot of big high scores and high series the year before. This season very inconsistent with the lane pattern.

Laziness is at an all time high when i came. Never coming here again it took the chef to get to* (notice she wasn’t even where she was suppose to be and shes getting paid to slack) her spot approximately 20 mins. Thats outrageous and then i decided to order some fries for me and my family. The amount of fries were like 10 fries like what am i getting here now. Then she goes and tells the women to close our lane since there was a third person in the game when we only paid for 2. Which by the way was going in everywhere before we got there. So at the end of the day don’t think or decide to come here food is horrible assistance as well and the woman in charge of the whole bowling alley in the front counter was on the computer when we were asking for her help. (Which took another five minutes) i hate the people that run the place and the hispanic woman who is the chef there. Plz fire them and get new people because the bowling alley itself is amazing but the employees are what can make the change.

The East Meadow bowling lanes are very nice but… VERY busy. On Sundays and weekdays up until about 5 p. m they are quiet. After 5 they are packed. On Friday nights there are tons of leagues and it is very unlikely that you will get a lane. Saturday nights are questionable so I would always suggest to call ahead. Overall the cleanliness and service of the establishment is well kept. The prices are decent. It’s 20 Sunday though Thursday for two hours. It’s no bargain unless you receive a coupon via email for 12 $ for two hours. I still do enjoy going bowling at AMF in East meadow despite the crowds. The workers are accommodating and have no problem moving lanes.

This is an old bowling alley. Nothing special about it, but the good part was that I did not have to wait very long to bowl, which was a plus. I also like that they had a full bar and pool tables. I disliked that they did not have hand sanitizer. Time to get with the times people! People skeeve dirty things and want to wash their hands!

usually only go here to watch my brother and sister in-​law bowl in their leauge. great full service bar and snack area.

I came here on a Saturday night. There was no wait!
20 $ are shoe rental and unlimited bowling until 2 o clock. Regularly priced 2 games and shoes is going to run you about 17 $ so this deal totally works out.
The place is clean and the workers are accommodating and friendly. We asked to move our lanes a little further away from the crowd and they had no problem turning on a new one for us. I also noticed other people moving around with no hassle.
They played some awesome music because I was in there singing my heart out between goes.
Your average smelly bowling shoes. Typical balls (some very cute colors though). I also will say I was never lacking a ball. Sometimes I go bowling and it takes forever for my ball to come back up and then I have to search for another the same size and can’t locate one. There were plenty of balls here and mine always returned to me in a timely fashion.
They have a spot for you to buy food that I didn’t even look at so I can’t make any comments on that and they also have plenty of vending machines.
I would totally return to this spot to come bowling. A nice crowd. Not too many old people, not too many rug rats, just a nice mixed group of people and I didn’t spot any drama. Can’t beat it.
They also have a lot of ways to win a free game, like guessing how many peppermints are in a jar or bowling a perfect game.

Nice, clean and affordable. I go here often with friends and it’s always a fun experience. Lanes are clean, place is open late and staff is friendly although they really need a new DJ.

I’ve been bowling here my whole life, and I see no reason to stop.
This is the neighborhood bowling alley for me and I like coming here, especially with friends. It’s pretty clean and open late. It’s a lot of fun hanging out with friends here. They play all the popular Top 40 tunes in the background as you play.
Standard automatic scoring on flat screen monitors. Whenever you have issues, just go up to the desk and they fix it immediately.

A nice bowling alley. Clean, big, and a nice place to bowl. I’ve been here numerous of times with friends, we’ve always had a good time and enjoyed ourselves.
Tip: AMF constantly mails home free game coupons, look it up. It’s the only time my friends and I go out to bowl. We play 2 games, 1 is free with the coupon, and if you bring your own bowling shoes, the total came out to about 4 bucks. If you bowl alot, it may be worth it to buy a cheap pair of bowling shoes to avoid shoe fees. Not bad!
