This place is a real hidden gem that I am glad I discovered. Emphasis on the hidden as it is located in the basement of John Paul Polish Cultural Centre which is hidden behind St Maximilian Kolbe Parish. If your coming from south be sure to make the left on Meadows Blvd or you'll drive right past it and not the easiest area to turn around. Once you have found the place though it is great. It's smaller place only 8 lanes but quite nice because of that. The owner Kevin is very nice and accommodating. He'll come down to the lanes and takes the time to show and instruct young first time bowlers how to play. This place is great for family activity with kids and also perfect for birthday party too. I held my daughter party last weekend and everyone really enjoyed themselves. They have a party area but also can just set up in the tables right behind the bowling lanes which i found worked out really well. They provide juice and pizza. Your able to bring cake.

My first experience with 5 pin bowling. While i missed my usual strikes, my kid beat me to it with multiple strikes. So a very fun place for kids. Very friendly staff and quite accommodating. May not be the best place for kids birthday party if you want a room to cut the cake. All celebrations will have to happen on the main floor. Having said that my kids had no complaints. All kids aged 3-9 enjoyed. The bowling alley and machine maintenance was not up-to my expectations. Some of the ball had dents in them. The ball gets stuck in gutter. Overall I score it as 4 as the people were nice, kids of all ages liked it and there were no electronic games or arcades to distract the kids.

I found this bowling centre after searching on Google map for a place to let the kids have a bit of fun that’s not over priced and overcrowded. I sent in an email reservation early in the morning and received response quickly. One hour cost $36 HST and shoes rental included with max of 6 players. The bowling centre is “hidden” in the basement. We were wondering if we were in the right place when we got there because there was no visible sign outside. The owner of the place is friendly and helpful. The place although not most updated is bright and clean. We had a lot of fun and all the kids (age 5 to 14) enjoyed the game. We will definitely be back more often now.

Мое мнение, маленькие шары, на 1 игру 1-6 человек даётся 10 игр по 3 катка. Ещё для игры дают одеть специальную обувь. А тут мини компьютер, показывает какая игра и сколько у кого очков. Ещё там есть мини бар, где есть чай, кофе, и различные газировки, (типо пепси,Фанта,спрайт). My opinion, small balls, for 1 game 1-6 people are given 10 games of 3 rinks. Even for the game they are given to wear special shoes. And then a mini computer shows which game and how many points someone has. There is also a mini bar with tea, coffee, and various sodas ( Pepsi, Fanta, Sprite).

Great place for a teens birthday party, lots of fun! Kevin is very friendly and he instructed kids before play. For a birthday package was provided a good service with arranged drinks and pizza. We were allowed to bring our cake. Also a bday party package includes 1 lane for 6 people to play and shoes.Thanks to Kevin for an awesome time at Centre Bowling!

We had our 4 and 6 year old's birthday party here this weekend. This is a great 5 pin bowling venue in the city. The lanes had bumpers for the kids and were in good shape. Everybody had a great time and we felt really the atmosphere was really relaxed which is a huge plus as the hosts.

First time there today and the service is amazing. Very friendly staff and accommodating. The gentlemen took the time to teach my daughter on how she should start bowling as she wasn’t able to throw properly. Will return once my daughter is a bit bigger so she can enjoy it more.

Kids loved it. Great price. It's not open for public bowl enough though. Maybe they have a target audience of seniors? Not sure. Most people can't make bowling I would imagine from 11am-5pm. And they pretty much close after that.

The word ramshackle springs to mind as it certainly has a worn look and feel. But. Very friendly staff and reasonable prices. Not much five pin left (at least on this side of the city). My five year old had a great time here.

It's small. Only 6 or so lanes.. which I loved! Because it's not too busy and crowded. The people who work there are always very nice. Clean place. It's just perfect for a family night.. without crazy crowds.

We had fun. Our family has been comung here for many years. It's a small place, but that's the nice thing about it. Not too overcrowding. Great price, kids had a good time. What more could I want.

A gem in an unassuming location. Kevin shared some insight into the story behind 5-pin bowling and gave us some quick coaching tips. Fun and easy experience and would recommend to all.

Had alot of fun this place is super low key and hidden did not know this place was even here until I googled it ! Staff is super nice they have drinks and snacks as well.

What a lovely bowling alley. There's never too many people there, it's rather inexpensive and the staff were very friendly. Gives a great throwback to the early 2000s

What a throwback. The woman who was staffing it tonight (nov 11) was really great. As someone who loved to 5 pin bowl, brought back the nostalgia! Thanks so much!

Old fashion sober family fun, great for a weekday or weekend! Short walk away from home and perfect for some easy going relaxation right in the neighbourhood!

We have our League there and it is a great experience. Kevin the owner is always helpful and runs the bowling centre professionally. Also reasonably priced.

Kevin was incredibly welcoming and educated us on how to approach 5 pin for the first time. Amazing 5 pin bowling space and had a great time!

Good quiet place to play bowling. I suggest you call before you go there. The manager sometimes hosts tournaments for members, I think.

Had a great time with family and friends. The place is clean, organized and managed well. I would definitely recommend the place.

Great place for families! Owner is super friendly. Would highly recommend. Never bowled 5 pins before and really enjoyed it!

Wonderful staff, pleasant to talk to. Quaint, homey and not laud like other bowling places. Love bringing my kids here.

Great place to bring your kids bowling. Place is definitely a bit dated but is clean and well kept.

Me and my cousins and family come here often to practice, Owner is really nice. Recommend it.

Super friendly people, great, clean lanes, and not too crazy loud. Definitely coming back!

Good time for seniors who enjoy bowling, no matter how you bowl. 12/30 every Monday.

Good place to hang and have fun with family and friends.. good custumer service

The owner is very personable, knowledgeable and friendly. Great place to bowl.
