I was here with the Honolulu soccer team. Kryssi and Tim were so helpful. They make a great team, with lots of support and super hospitable. Recommend this team any day!

We had so much fun! The bowling alley is very clean and the music isn't so high that you can't hear the person next to you! I'll be coming back here soon I hope!

The original plans with my family changed and we decided on going bowling instead and it ended up being a better time than the original plan. Incredible service and great food! Love the atmosphere!! & how the managers constantly check on you is genuinely something I've never seen before. We felt so taken care of! Will come again!!

I grew up in San Marcos, so this place will always be Eagle Bowl to me even though it was Bowlero before becoming Lucky Strike Gone are the glorious days of $2 bowling, but the glow-up is real. The place looks great, and if you book two lanes, you get a semi-private booth that makes you feel way more VIP than your bowling score probably deserves. One thing to know: the no outside food or drink policy is enforced with the enthusiasm of airport security. I'm talking employee walking around checking to see if anyone is eating or drinking anything that wasn't ordered on-site. Don't even think about bringing in your emotional support water bottle. The funny part is they have tablets at every booth so you can order without bothering anyone...except our server wanted us to order directly through them anyway. So the tablet mostly served as a high-tech menu. We had a great time. The atmosphere is lively, the setup is awesome for groups, and I'd happily come back--just hydrated in advance.

This is a great venue for a bowling party. They have a good website to reserve lanes and purchase party packages. The service is friendly, helpful and we had a great experience here. Each manager and team member introduced themselves and tried to help out. It's normally a bit pricey but there's was a summer special that's about $20pp. There are sampler plates and they let you bring in cake and decorations. The bathrooms need a little cleaning but the rest of the facilities were clean and tidy. There are arcades and air hockey. We will be back!

Had a great time bowling here and food was top notch. We didn't reserve lanes but was able to sneak in late afternoon on a Saturday. Lanes were well maintained and we used house shoes and balls. Only strange thing was so many balls are just stored under the ball holders by the lane versus behind the lanes. However many were double drilled for different sized fingers. Space is a little tight when both sides of the lane is being used so you do have to squeeze by each other a lot between the two areas. Table is kinda small. There is more space behind the lanes as well with some extra surfaces to hold drinks and food. Food was epic - literally best I've had at any bowling alley. We ordered the buffalo chicken quesadillas and the appetizer platter. Everything on the platter was tasty especially the chicken. Huge menu, good portions. Drinks were nice and cold. It was a bit hard to snag our server at times but he was very attentive when we did catch him.

Had a great time bowling with the kids. Everything looks clean and well maintained. Lanes worked great and we had no problems. Everybody was helpful and friendly. Kids also enjoyed the Arcade. Looks like they added prizes, which we were told will be open in 2 weeks or so. The summer passes look like a great deal. Regular bowling is pricey.

We had such a great experience at Lucky Strike thanks to Joshua, the manager! We celebrated my daughter’s birthday there, and he went above and beyond to make sure she had an amazing time. Me and all my kids had a blast for it being our first time, it was definitely a hit and absolutely worth it. The staff was super helpful, attentive, and provided excellent customer service from start to finish. The atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and perfect for both kids and adults. We’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for birthdays or a fun family night out!

Lucky Strike San Marcos is a fun spot that combines bowling, arcade games, and a bar all in one lively space. Pros: This place is huge and perfect for going with a group. The vibe is really fun and energetic, with good music and movies playing while you bowl which makes the experience even better. The bowling lanes are really nice and well-kept, and at around $13.99 per person per round (not including shoe rental), it felt like an okay deal for a group activity. A bit too expensive for me. They also have an arcade, which adds another layer of fun beyond just bowling, so you can switch things up throughout the night. There's also a bar on-site where we grabbed some beers, which made it feel more like a full night-out spot rather than just an activity. I did not have the food but they have options in the case you want to order some. Everything felt clean and well-maintained, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Parking is another big plus there's a large lot and it's completely

Had a great time bowling here. Groupon has a great deal for 2 hours of bowling plus shoe rental. Do keep in mind as of 2/2026 their hours of operation have changed. Will for sure be back to bowl again.

This place has revamped since the last time I have been there. Normally I expect a dingy, moist, musty atmosphere, that smells like old lane oil, stale beer and old well-worn shoes. This place was pretty immaculate; the staff here was friendly even though the line was out the door, it was Friday the 13th and they had stickers which were awesome. The place has had a major revamp. The shoes were new; the balls were not all chipped up, the seats were clean. The cafe food even smelled good! I will be back, had a lot of fun!

Had a great experience here today. Brought my five kiddos bowling for the first time. Got an end lane. The guy who checked us in couldn't have been any nicer. Ask us which movie we wanted. (Apparently the one playing just ended) The server was very attentive and even helped us setup the game. Wonderful customer service. So pleased with our experience will definitely come back! Thank you for doing a great job!

I really enjoyed this bowling alley. It was a fun experience. I hadn't been bowling in a really long time and we went on a company trip. The atmosphere was really fun. The food was great. The cocktails were good and it made me want to start bowling again. Loved it.
