Bendigo Bowling Centre

Haven't bowled for 13 years.decided to come with my wife and both have a bit of fun and gain some of my old skills back, the team working there are very nice, clean and very organized, definitely going there again & again, also thinking of joining a league after haven't bowled for so many years.great fun and great sport to get into again.looking forward to it. Top marks.

I often think about what would happen if the staff here decided to go on strike. Spare a thought for the chaos that may ensue. Management would be like, "oh congratulations", and staff would be like
"oh we're getting a pay rise then? " To which management would be like,
"what"
"what? "
"what!? "
"for the strike"
"we don't pay you to bowl well"

Here's hoping that this never happens and this five star review goes a little way to maintaining the peaceful relationship between the staff and the management.

Awesome when you can't be stuffed driving to Melbourne. It's also way less crowded than the Melbourne ones so you can own a bit more space. I personally prefer it to Strike and the like cos they don't have the music up at volume 7492919 so you can have a conversation while you bowl. Has food available and everything is clean and in reasonable condition.

Excellent place for a fun night!
The cafe food is delicious and all staff on site are extremely friendly and courteous. Highly recommend the potato gems with cheese and gravy.:)

This was legitimately the best bowling experience ive ever had, We started with ordering some snacks and some drinks (the serve was so big we couldnt finish it) the staff served us super quickly and everything was so well priced. We had a great time bowling and during our second game there was a slight issue with the pins jamming, before we even asked the attendant came over and fixed the issue in under a minute. I thanked the attendant and we finished our game. The highlight of the evening was as we finished our games and I returned the bowling shoes the attendant noticing I was interested in how the mechanics of the alley worked asked if my girlfriend and I wanted to go behind the scenes and see how everything worked, he was so knowledgable and answered several questions I had to ask it was essentially a free guided tour of a bowling alley and I honestly had a fantastic night. Thanks for the great evening!

Lane 13 kept breaking down it wouldn't pick up the pins in between bowls which resulted in free spares and a tainted overall score then the ball returner broke down so we had to switch lanes. Besides that seems like an alright bowling alley.hotdogs were rubbish but they do make a good thinkshake

Small but ok. Wasn't happy with 5 teens getting put on the next Lane from us. Not very good safe distancing but was ok. Cheap for a family to bowl

Staff very friendly and helpful, quick to serve at the bar and great facility.
Would recommend a light drink and a bowl.

A great place to go when the weather isn't great for the outdoors. A family friendly environment with great staff

Excellent prices for packages on certain days. Pretty tasty fish and chips that are on par with some of the best. Great fun for the while family with shoes and ball available and included in the price

Enjoyed playing a game haven't done it in years but the price online is false online it says $6 disability concession but was told I had to pay $10 was annoying

Absolutely loves this with my young boy and two teenage girls. The staff were amazing and we had so much fun. The cafe staff were supurb. Well done.

Great spot for bowling and the food at the cafe is really good. Very high on my recommendations list

You can do bowling and beer! Pretty fun. The cafe has some good stuff, hot food and all that. Could do with some more play deals.

Come here alot with work, the staff are great & always friendly. Fun place to come to bowl with friends.

It's a really good place. It's kept clean and has a wonderfully comfortable atmosphere. My friends and I had a great night bowling here. The only thing I didn't like was that they didn't have shoe sizes in halves.

If you live in Bendigo and you like ten pin bowling this is the place to do it. Cause its the only place you can do it. Its great though, the staff are really friendly and the atmosphere is fun and lively. There's also a bar.that's the best part (;

Great fun and reasonably priced. The cafe has good food and there is also a bar. Staff are helpful.

*EDIT*
We have come here on a busy sat afternoon and cat even get a coffee as the cafe is unattended, when I enquired at the front desk, as adcised to do by a sign to order, the woman snapped "It's unattended. " The bar was attended and selling alcohol, but families wanting tea/coffee or water were not served. I think there is new management and I have to say, this is just not good enough. Unfortunately the staff aren't the normal pleasant helpfully people either. Such a shame as it was a nice place to visit and we had visited quite regularly. *****EDIT*****

Love this place, our son loves this place. The upkeep is brilliant, the staff are more than friendly, they go above and beyond, I have not seen one staff member yet to not have a huge smile and genuinely look happy to be at work. There is also a small room with coin games, racing, air hockey and skill testers, at the moment there is even a photo both. The place is clean and run well. Always a pleasure to visit here.

This was awesome! Very busy though between 6-8 and this was on Wednesday. Team bowling! Able to have lanes up. Child friendly. Variety of shoes, and other games - arcade etc - and moderately friendly staff. Was a fun night
