Today, there is a sharp divide between bare bones old-school alleys and flashy entertainment centers. Some lanes, however, try to be the best of both worlds. West Seattle Bowl, for one, manages to offer some exciting modern amenities while still providing a classic bowling alley, not some sort of mini Disney World or glitzy nightclub.
Online Reservations
At most alleys, it’s a crapshoot whether or not there will be a lane available when you show up. We’ve all been pumped up for a night of bowling only to find out that we have to wait an hour or more until you can get going. But what can you do? Book your lane online, of course, and West Seattle Bowl makes it very easy with a convenient online system. You can quickly view which lanes are available and choose exactly the one you want. Most of the time staff members just shove you wherever they want you to bowl, but here you can pick the perfect lane for you and your party.
We already reserve many things online, when we’re flying, catching a movie or viewing a sports event, so why shouldn’t we be able to do the same for our bowling? We hope more communities catch on to this idea and offer it to their patrons.
Community Favorite and Great Deals
Despite opening up to some innovative features today, West Seattle Bowl is still very much a classic bowling alley. It is a longtime fixture in the West Seattle community, having been open since 1948. It also offers some great deals, including a happy hour offering half price bowling on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00 pm to 5:30 pm.
