Been going there for years and loved it while under Joe and family. The place recently sold and I really hate to say this, but the new owners just don't know what they are doing. They have bartenders that have no clue about how to make simple drinks and popular shots. They are very slow as if they have no experience at all. These are BUSY lanes and they need good bartenders. They did not retain Maggie who was with Joe for years....just the best...great smile, attitude and FAST! They need to figure out a way to get her back....business WAY down now. Thanksgiving Tournament did not happen for the first time I can ever remember.....owner was out of town??? Bad move and hope they don't do that again. Food: They have always had a "specials" menu. However, now that menu can only be ordered and eaten in their restaurant in back and they will not deliver that food to your lanes, just the food you can order at the bar. The lanes and pin sets need a lot of work and now much worse since Joe left and lanes go DOWN for extended periods. We love the place and hope the new owners can figure this out. I would love to come back and write a much more positive review!!!

Overall a decent center to bowl in and have a good time. The other day was ruined though by a female coach for grayslake. Her high horse attitude ruined what was supposed to be a good time. She needs to learn to pull in and display herself as a good role model and a good school representative. Thanks to her my time here felt terrible and awful. I will not be returning to lakes again.

If I could give zero stars I would. They wouldn’t let us start another game but let the people next to us start another game with more people in their group. The drinks tasted like water. And the staff was very rude. Don’t come here

I don't know how anyone could leave a bad review for this place. Best lanes in lake county, best bartenders in lake county, and best overall place in lake county. Love you so much sharkeys and lakes. Don't change a thing.

My favorite home bowling center, the leagues here are well organized and are so much fun to be a part of, great way to making new friends. Food is always a great satisfaction, and the staff is very pleasant.

I called ahead yesterday to confirm they were open and what time they were open til. Man on the phone seemed annoyed he had to answer my questions. Proceeded to show up not even 20 minutes later, the place was packed. We walked to the front counter to ask what the wait times were, and a woman and man at the counter looked at me like I just told them I totaled their car in the parking lot. They proceed to say that there were no open lanes for the day in a spiteful manner. It amazes me how someone can work a job like this, act like a complete crude, treat people with disrespect, all while not even doing their simplistic job correctly. Good luck to those people and this venue at ever prospering!

Took my 3-year-old daughter for her first time bowling and she loved it. Family owned and they really make sure you have a great time. Highly recommended!

You will have a fun time at this clean, family run recreation center. Good food & full bar, too!
