Last night I went on a date to SHELL LANES near McDonald Ave and Ave X and it was a nightmare!!! To begin the fat , overly tanned, 50+ year old, wanna be Sopranos character, who works behind the counter was very slow and it took me 15 minutes of waiting while he talked to other people to get my change. After I politely requested to have my lane changed because the players next to me were extremely rowdy the guy replied : "" we never change lanes when customers ask to have their lane changed"", thanks to that jerk I could barely talk to my date with all the noise around us and she constantly complained about the noise which made the date HELL !! In the middle of the game we were interrupted by another Rude and unreasonable employee who for no apparent reason was going around taking away all the lighter balls because he said they were for children, my date is 5'5'' and 115 lbs. and could not use the heavy balls !!! Even the guy in the lane next to me was complaining because he was having back pains and wanted to use the lighter ball. To top it all off when i was coming back to return the shoes the fat grumpy Sopranos character made me walk to two different counters to return the shoes when he could have just taken both from me since he was the only one behind the counter and both pairs were within one foot step of each other for him. THE PEOPLE WHO RUN THIS PLACE TREAT YOU LIKE THEY ARE DOING YOU A FAVOR, AS IF YOU'RE NOT PAYING $7 PER GAME TO BOWL IN THEIR CRAPPY BOWLING ALLEY!!!!...I WOULD AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS !!!!
Pros: cheap
