Went there to bowl. Person behind the desk refused to give me a lane because i was alone. Stated that it was policy that he can’t give a lane to single person. I offered to pay for two people for the special but he refused. The whole place was empty and he insisted on charging me regular prices. Won’t be coming back here

Unexpected fun! It’s small and kinda tight, but we went on a Saturday night and there was a good mix of families, teens and 30 something’s having a good time. The staff was friendly, if a little slow to fix the bumpers issue we had. They have a full bar and food set up, but it’s cash only! The popcorn in mini or jacuzzi tub size is a nice touch too. Overall a ton of fun!

My husband and I went here on a Saturday night. While the venue was busy we received service immediately, and a lane. The person who helped us suggested we do the special which was unlimited bowling for 2 hours for $ 13.50 each, what a deal! They had the black lights on which was a nice touch and the music provided a variety of genres. The crowd is diverse attracting locals and college students. Since we were in the very first lane I did not get a chance to see the whole floor plan. Parking is convenient and plentiful. We shall be back!

A good place. They seem to have nice deals every day. Black light bowling kicked on a 9:30 on a Thursday, which was fun.(Didn’t know this was going to happen but it may have been posted somewhere and we didn’t notice). Place was pretty full and all were enjoying. Friendly staff. A good place to pop into and remember the fun of bowling. Wish I’d known ahead of time that food and bar are cash only. There is an ATM($ 3 charge) but I would have swing by the bank that is practically next door if I knew. So learn from a fellow Unilocaler and bring cash!

Yeah, really cool place, busy enough to be entertaining, but small enough to be cool and friendly. Great staff and a cool little bar to hang about in after a game or two. Great find and really reasonable for price also.

Cheapest alleys in the area, and also the straightest and best kept. No wonder the leagues flock to this place, they have professional level lane maintenance. Recently I took a lesson with Phil, one of the managers, and it was excellent. If you’re into improving your game, he’s the guy to talk to. In addition, I used their pro shop to get a custom fingertip ball(my first!) and they took extreme care in making sure that it fit my hand correctly. One final note, its nice and dark in the alley, most places have bright flourescent lights everywhere which is really annoying, but at Amity its a nice dim light in there so you can focus on the pins.

Great place, and really cheap compared to other alleys around here. The staff is very friendly and come over to talk and give pointers. I’ve never had the food, except for when they gave us free popcorn. Really great place.

I came here on a Saturday night with two other bowling-partners-in-crime. We played two games each and also rented shoes. Six games of bowling on a Saturday night and three pairs of rental shoes came to almost forty dollars. A liiiiitle on the pricey side, but we had a blast. The lanes at Amity Bowl are well taken care of. The bowling balls are in good shape, too. There are plenty balls available, with a ride range of finger hole sizes. Balls as light as 8 pounds and as heavy as 16 pounds are available at the alley. The shoes aren’t scummy either, which is a huge plus. It skeeves me out a little to think how many people have worn those shoes, regardless of how thoroughly they sanitize them! The gentleman at the counter that set us up on a lane and rang us out as we were leaving was very nice. There’s a full bar and a well-stocked snack bar. Everything is clean, too, which I appreciate because I can only imagine how messy a bowling alley could potentially get [grease + nachos + beer + drunk people throwing 13 pound balls doesn’t sound like the best combination ever in regards to keeping things clean]! Amity bowl turns into a disco haven on Saturday nights after 8:00PM. Sometimes called«moonlight» or «midnight» bowling, the lights do dim, a slew of rotating colorful lights come on, and the music gets blasted through the speakers. Wear light colors and you will experience an effervescent glow!

Has anyone else noticed that bowling has gotten ridiculously expensive nowadays? I think it’s like $ 6 a game in Milford. What the hell? To roll a ball and knock over some sticks? Retarded. Luckily, Amity Bowl still knows how to offer a good experience at a good price. In comparison to other bowling alleys in the area, their prices are good, there are free coupons floating around(on the paper placemats at the Athenian Diner) and they take pretty good care of their lanes. They also have a full bar, and you can get reasonably priced pitchers of beer and pretty much whatever else you find to be an appropriate bowling alley beverage(martinis are not approved for bowling alley consumption). The food is, well, it’s bowling alley food, so take that for what it’s worth. But, even still, it’s pretty bad. Eh, you can’t win ‘em all. It’s still the best deal in the area for bowling excitement!
