Thunderbowl Lanes - Englewood

Staff is always friendly when we visit. Kids had a lot of fun and those fries dipped in cheese sauce hit the spot ? see yall soon.

Overall a negative experience coming here with my family, which includes 3, 4 and 6 year olds.First of all, the food menu is very limited, and they have an extremely well-enforced No Outside Food or Drink policy. That 's fine, but it 's a bummer that there are very few food options. At least the pizza was good.One thing that we found very weird: they don 't let you have ice. If you order a pop, they give you a tiny amount of ice with your drink. But if you ask for water, you 're not allowed to have any ice. Even when my wife asked to pay for a pop and just get an empty cup of ice, they would not allow it. And since you aren 't allowed to bring in your own water bottles.... hope you like warm water.The employee was sympathetic: he said he was just following the rules, even though he felt like many of them were ridiculous.The bowling itself was fine. No electronic bumpers which meant the grown ups on our group had to play with them up. But that wasn 't a big deal to us. The price was ok too, although I felt like it should have been cheaper for a 3 year old to play than for an adult.The arcade portion is pretty lame, unless you like claw machines, of which there are like 8. In terms of actual games, there are 3: 1 Galaga machine, 1 Simpsons pinball machine, and 1 racing machine.So, if you 're just coming for the bowling? Cool, you 'll probably have a good time. But in terms of an overall family experience this place is lacking.

Needs upgraded the food and atmosphere. We almost seen a fight tons of yelling they threw them out but still uncomfortable. League nights are fun with a good crowd of people! Food is average!

This bowling alley is a great place to go bowl with your family and friends. This place is very clean compared to other bowling alleys in the Dayton area. I have been bowling here for over 5 years and have never had any issues. The staff has always been great to me!!! Thank you for having a great place for us to have fun with our families and friends!!

Been bowling at Thunderbowl since I was knee high to a grasshopperWhether it's open bowling or league; this is a great place to take family or friends.The pepperoni pizza is great; and hasn't changed a bit for the last 15 years.Bowl in a league for $1 off your beer ?
