Viking Lanes - South Beloit, Illinois

Me and my daughter had fun. But the site says they have unlimited bowling for 2 hours, then when we get there the lady said very bluntly and matter of fact they they don't do that.
Then to top it off it came to 13.75 per game.

Bowled there in a league for years. New kitchen this year and hopefully that helps with the minuscule portion sizes. New point of sale system at the bar manifests itself in the form of no more drink specials, and lane 24 has an actual divot where a piece of the lane is missing. We always ate down the street before bowling because of prices/portion size/service (sometimes took an hour or more to get fries, hopefully kitchen remodel helps), but coming into league this year to hear bar prices went up while I’m bowling on a line with a divot was a bummer. They’re the only local alley so they have the leverage and I’ll update the review as the year goes on if things improve, but no drink specials on league nights is a slap in the face to loyal bowlers IMO.

Very upset , most all the time I'm coming to Beloit I bring my kid to play couple games, cause my kid play bowling for the school and play in the league at Rockford bowling alley.
The old lady at the front counter ,I think her name is Shari B.charge me full price for mid kid to play two games.all others alleys charge $2 -$3 dollars per game when league members o middle schooler come to practice.she refuse that and told new only when schools are in bowling game season they charge less.not the rest of the year.
So sad Vikings was a family favorite bowling alley in Beloit . now no more.🙁.
All the other stuff members are awesome.give 👍to them.but today 10/13/24. This lady makes me feel upset.and she was little mean when she refuse to charge me that always i pay.
Anyways thank you for everything.

The kids had fun for my son's birthday but the way I was treated by the lady working the counter was unacceptable and rude

Pretty clean but on small side. If you're there watching a bowling match between HS teams, seats fill up fast. Tables are small and the divider wall was too high to see over. They should have ½circle tables by the divider walls instead of small rectangle ones. The higher section of the divider walls should be lowered to be even with the lower wall.

View was blocked by the taller section of the divider wall. Was a pain to lean sideways or to stand up every time I wanted to see my kid bowl.

Food was pretty good, but the first 2 food items we tried to order, we were told they couldn't do them tonight. So we settled for mini tacos and a cheese pizza.

Played in The Ole Viking Lane Volleyball tournament. A good time was had by all except maybe for all the sticker plants poking the feet.

Some staff are nice others have an attitude, noticed they have quite a bit of tar leaks. May be fixed if they got the roof fixed, just all around not a great experience
