Reviews for Garden Bowl in Detroit, MI
Love this place. Are the lanes good? No, and that\'s when they\'re available. Is the pizza greasy as hell? Yes. But twice... there\'s been a bowling pin art show here and how many other bowling alleys can we say that about? Read more
So much fun. My sister\'s and I planned this as our last stop of the night for my sister\'s bachelorette party and I was sooooo... fun. The pizza was amazing and all the workers were so helpful (that I could remember --- after all it was a bachelorette party????????????). 10 out of 10 Read more
My colleagues and I decided to go bowling and this was the location chosen. We went earlier in the day so it was not as crowded.... We had a good time bowling and enjoyed the pizza. If you have a large group I would recommend going early and of course calling. Read more
All in all this was a fun place to go bowling. The wait and service staff /attendants we encountered were all very friendly,... courteous, and provided excellent service. Reason for only 4 stars is a result of my one criticism. While a rather large groupof kids were there for a birthday party, all bowling etiquette went out the window. From other customers, OK - you can\'t domuch about that, but when an attendant on his way to assist with an issue on an adjacent lane crosses directly in front of yourpath when you\'re getting ready to bowl and doesn\'t even acknowledge the interruption seemed a bit strange to us. But let meend by getting back to the positive experience I mentioned at the start and just add this. Keep going to bowling alleys likethis, they are becoming a rarity as more and more of them struggle to stay in business and are forced to close their doorspermanently. This cannot become a lost family and friends activity!! Read more
We were in town and went for an afternoon bowl. It was great fun. If you bowl before 5pm you get a better rate. It was still a... very cool vibe. The eighties alternative music on the speakers was unique and well chosen. The few other bowlers in adjacentlanes were friendly and highly skilled (unlike us :-) Yes, it\'s Detroit, so it is cool.

Seemed like a really cool place only problem was the lanes were all full when we got there so we had to settle for drinks and... pizza.. Both were really good though just was looking forward to trying out the lanes so will for sure have to go back. Theservice was alright but I think some of the employees may have been having a rough day. Read more
Had a ball bowling here with the family. Had some good drinks and food also. I thought it was kind of small compared to other... places that I go to, not very roomy at the bowling area but you will still be able to have a good time. Read more
Really hate how this bowling alley is set up wherein a normal bowling alley would have the ball return in the center of the 2... lanes.. Well not here..Who\'s idea was it to architect the ball return of the far right side of the bowlers which constantlyinterrupts your game, because the other party connected to your lane and trying to enjoy themselves have to keep saying excuseme etc.. to get their bowling ball back (EVERY SINGLE TIME GEESH..), your date and overall enjoyment...not to mention they onlycharge by the hour which that definitely effects your time.. never seen anything lik it. Doubt I\'ll ever return Read more
