  This location is a rip off. We visited during one of their "premium" charge periods, a Saturday night, and were charged $4 for shoe rental, $6 per game of bowling, and $6 for a bottle of Corona. Who charges $6 for a bottle of Corona? Mark up of 600%. Two games of bowling, one beer, $22. On a date? $44. With a family of four? $88. Also, the set up with small square tables is exceedingly awkward, constantly walking around people crammed in next to you on all sides, and no where to put your shoes or bowling ball bags. I'll never understand why bowling alleys got rid of the semi-circle seating around the ball return. The tables suck. It was also a pain that you have to prepay for every game you want to play. So if you finish a game, and decide to play another, you can't just start to play and pay for your total at the end. No, you have to go stand in line again, and prepay for your second game. I guess they've had people walk out and not pay, so they make everyone suffer the consequences. We did like the music videos they were showing on two big screens on late Friday night. Good atmosphere, but the place was a rip off, so we won't be back. Much cheaper to bowl in other places around the Triangle. Seems to be a Cary teen hangout, however, so I'm sure they will be able to stay in business with clientele who pay with Dad's money, not their own.

  This is your typical, old-school bowling alley. They have league bowling, family nights, "disco" nights (which black lights and music) and stuff like that. Decent snack bar food. They have a small arcade. Bar. The staff is nice. They could probably use a renovation but I don't see that happening. Fun, but don't expect anything fancy.
