My lady and I hadn't gone bowling in a while and decided to check this spot out after I told her about it. We wanted to try out a different spot from our usual Madison Bowl and this was pretty close to us to. Overall, great place with a classic bowling alley feel. Plus cheap libations.
We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon to play a few games. There definitely isn't a shortage of lanes here with 34 total. There's also a plethora of claw machines, a cool bar area, concessions for food, and even volleyball courts outside open seasonally. The only thing I didn't like was that open bowling was 2pm-4pm. Still, we enjoyed playing there, and definitely enjoyed the $2.75 Coors Light on draft. And the bartender was very friendly. We played four games each and it was about $7 per game with shoes.
Good bowling spot for sure. I could see us stopping by here again for a few games. And of course enjoying more cheap libations.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0 - Mar 30, 2024
My Mr. wanted to play bowling this weekend and he mentioned Cherry Grove Lanes was near his work. I definitely wanted to check it out since it was in this area near our home.
Like every bowling joint, this also had nostalgia. The lanes to the building inside down to the carpeting. There was enough bowling balls for everyone. From lightweight to extra large. They had an open bar and snack bar. We played 4 games and also had some brews (Coors Light on draft).
The lanes was super smooth and pricing was reasonable. We ended up paying $7.00 a game with rented shoes.
The only thing that I didn't like that there was a time limit. We got there at 2:00 pm and we had until 4:00 pm to bowl.
The whole experience was fun and will definitely come back again.Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 4Oh no 0 - Just S.Milford, OH0391Jan 11, 2024
I used to work at this bowling alley and help out after the leagues. I also collected money during the summer at the volleyball court. Then I ran off to Florida for 2 years. This was when I was 18 or 19.

This bowling alley is great. Kind of old-school. It has a lot of lanes, there's a lounge and there's sand volleyball courts too.
Great prices on bowling and drinks!
Friendly staff.
We had a good time bowling and would stop in again when in the area.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Ethan T.OH, OH02Aug 8, 2021
I've been going to this bowling alley for most of my life. It's always been there if you want to spend a night with your friends and just have fun bowling, eating, drinking, etc. Not to mention the cheap admission and reasonably priced food. You will definitely have a fun night here, but The biggest issue I've had with the place is the older worker who usually wears a hat. Very rude and disrespectful. Another issue is it's quality and cleanliness is declining. Fix those two issues and this could be a truly great spot.

I enjoy bowling and have started to get back into recently and I go here only because it's the closest alley. However it's so not worth the time. The old man at the desk either needs to be nicer or just retire, he's always rude and inconsiderate and then wonders why they're losing money. The house balls are super rough and on multiple occasions have gotten stuck at the end of the lane and not caught into the feeder to bring the ball back. There's so much room for improvement here. Until the customer service gets better, I will not be returning here. I've left too many times frustrated with the attitude of the workers here.

Environment of a place is very important to me because it has a decent impact ones state of consciousness. If my friend and I had to stay another half an hour at this place we would have become nauseous.
This place felt like a sausage fest and smelled like testosterone. Stuffed with mostly men who were swearing loudly in their drunk voices. There were so many people that it seemed like the only fun point in the whole area. Or may be alcohol was cheap
Although the volleyball section was a little better in regards of atmosphere. As it was spacious with not as many people.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Bradley B.Burlington, KY104233Jan 4, 2019
Loved the lanes and the balls. Very nice house balls. Only problem was the rude workers. Older gentleman at the desk was super rude when my family asked if we could have two alternating lanes for four of us, as a league would work. I was the only one who needed shoes and woman's words when I approached were "what do you need?...what size" handed them to me and turned around immediately. Overheard her being rude with other customers when they asked for a 5 lb ball that they don't have. Would just prefer better customer service.

You need to make masks mandatory if you are going to place people on lanes so close next to each other. I didn't feel safe bowling like that today.
