Customer Reviews

Another great Saturday experience with my kids, this is an example of the PEOPLE that make Bowlero great and probably why I spent way too much money bowling every week. Thanks to the staff at Heather Ridge for making another great memory. Thank you! Added second picture, won way more prizes after adding more $30 to the play card.

I visit this location weekly, and the staff is fantastic! Robert is always very helpful in getting us a lane quickly, and Charlie is a joy to be around. He's quick with a funny joke and always takes care of our drink orders. The food is delicious, and the service is quick. The staff always makes it fun to bowl here!

Our team have been here twice now on Saturday night. Bowling plus arcade in the back room. The funnel fries and nachos hit the spot. Shoutout to manager Andrea she was super nice and helpful. Bartender Benjamin was dope as well. Bowlero is a HR!

The servers were all so helpful, and the food and drinks were great! The best thing was the overall attitude of everyone, patron and staff, regardless of age. This place has good folks that make it great!

I just brought my kids here to bowl recently and the crew here are great! Andrea the GM definitely went above and beyond for us and made sure we were comfortable and entertained! I definitely recommend bowling here on Sundays especially when the lights are on! If you are a serious bowler or planning on getting serious, I recommend bowling here. The food is great too! I've been bowling here for almost three years and they have great leagues to join and a fun arcade for the kids! We recently purchased the sum

Amy is absolutely amazing! She's not only incredibly skilled at making delicious drinks, but she also has such a warm and welcoming personality that makes every visit unforgettable. Amy goes above and beyond to ensure everyone feels comfortable and taken care of, and her attention to detail is unmatched. Whether you're a regular or visiting for the first time, she makes you feel right at home. If you're looking for a bartender who's talented, kind, and genuinely cares about her guests, Amy is the best there

This is my favorite place to bowl!! Can't say enough about the staff; always have a kind word. Quick to get us on a lane, and to take our food and drink order. The cheeseburger is great, and they don't have a problem with cutting it in half to share with my bowling buddy. Andrea, Robert, and Charley are the best. Not sure I would bowl at this facility if it weren't for them. The lanes are great, but the staff is magnificient. Always look forward to bowling and visiting with them every week.

I have always found a lane here, only waited 10 minutes 1 time at 4 pm on a league night. The fall package is the best thing I have bought this year, paid for itself in 2 visits, and I had about 50+ days to use it. Staff is friendly. I think the prairie dogs in the parking lot are a bonus, they are cute and keep to themselves.

called on a monday around 1, to go bowling with our staff party. they had 2 lanes left right next to each other, and i can't remember the girls name, she said she was the manager, but saved the lanes for us until we arrived. we had a blast! thanks, bowlero!

I had a great time at Bowlero Bowling Alley. The facility is clean and well-maintained, giving off a welcoming ambiance. One of the highlights for me was the full bar, complemented by a diverse range of food options, ensuring we were well-fed and refreshed as we bowled. Beyond bowling, the arcade added an extra layer of fun to our visit. And for those serious about their bowling game, there's even a pro shop to cater to all your bowling needs. Overall, a top-notch spot for both casual fun and serious play!

We have been bowling at Heatheridge every single Sunday for months, and we love the staff there. They are always very attentive and friendly, at the service desk and in the kitchen! Sonetimes we have lanes that malfunction, which is a problem with Bowlero, but the staff handles with good attitudes. We enjoy meeting up at Heatheridge to bowl!

Me and my Father go here every Friday night for bowling and we are in a League every Tuesday and they have always treated us well. everyone takes care of us well and some servers even know what drink i like and how i like it (pepsi w/o ice).

Giselle and Dillon were excellent hosts! Thank you both for making out birthday boy feel special! We had a great time and the kids enjoyed the birthday party! Thanks guys we'll see you all soon!

I haven't been bowling in years. We walked right in and had a lane within minutes. Check out was equally convenient. Staff was pleasant and helpful.

We love coming to Heather ridge bowlero. Andrea and her staff are fantastic. The food is great. I recommend to all

Bowlero heatheridge was amazing!!!! Staff was fantastic including Bartender Benjamin, managers Andrea Rob and Xander, and G behind the snack bar was great as well. Definitely recommend and will be back!

The staff were super incredible. Andrea and Benjamin really took care of me and my friends. They were really kind and really on top of everything. 10/10 would recommend coming to this location!!!

Came here on a Saturday afternoon with my kids. It's a nice facility, very clean. The staff were helpful and friendly. The food is about what you'd expect at a bowling alley, however the beer needed a little help, don't know if the lines hadn't been cleaned in a while, but it was a bit funky. Overall enjoyed my time here, will definitely be coming back!

I really enjoy bowling league at this location. I've bowled at most Bowleros in town and this is definitely one of my top picks. The lanes are in good condition and the league runs smoothly. Shoutout to the GM for always being helpful/nice, Amy the bar tender for making sure we are taking care of, and all the rest of the staff that make this location wonderful. Bravo!

Love this ally. Staff are always attentive and professional. Very clean and great vibes. The full bar is always a great plus. For sure going to be my main lanes from now on.

10/10 experience, the employees genuinely cared about our experience when we visited. Everyone was happy to help and would not settle for us to have anything but an amazing experience. Will definitely recommend this place in the future!

The employees were very considered. We had 20 people and they made sure we were comfortable . Be sure to tell all of them thanks.

Food service on point as always. Bring the whole family here it's always a blast of a time.

Bowlero Heather Ridge is a great place to spend an afternoon or evening bowling, eating the really good food, and especially talking with Andrea, Robert, and Charley. They make you feel right at home and should any problem come up (rare) they're right there to solve it. I have been to other Bowleros, but done can compare to the service and friendliness you get at Bowlero Heather Ridge, Love this bowling alley!!

We always go on sundays for their 18.99 unlimited bowling per person with rental shoes included. Great atmosphere the kids have a ton of fun doesn't break the bank and the staff is always soooo helpful and nice. Food is not bad too.

We had a birthday party here with 16+ people including adults and kids. I couldn't recommend this Bowlero more highly! Our server, Rae (sp?), was incredible. She was helpful, available, and super friendly. The manager was there when we arrived and he checked in throughout. When we asked to add a kids lane, 3 minutes later we had a ramp, 6lb balls, bumpers and kids shoes. Gigi made chicken tenders and mozzarella sticks that were hot and delicious. The only downside is the price, but honestly it was worth it.

hands down my favorite bowling spot around love the atmosphere and the people make you wanna come back!! ZOEI AND XANDERR ON IT

Had my party at this location and everything went great! Planning things was smooth with Kevin. He helped with making sure I had the right package for my group. They were friendly and very helpful at the bowling center. The lanes were clean and the food area was decorated and had hot yummy food for us. We had plenty to eat and drink and the kids had game cards they could use. The price was very reasonable for everything. If I wasn't moving out of state I would have another party here! My group had a blast!

Such a fun experience, not crazy expensive and your kids will have a fun time. The staff was friendly and Charlie was great!

I had a fantastic time at Bowlero! The atmosphere was lively and fun, and all of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, They made sure everything ran smoothly and added to the overall experience. I can't wait to come back for another great experience!

I bowl on Monday's on the Your Choice Ball League and Amy is always has a smile and very friendly. I don't have to ask what I want to drink as she knows my order.

I had a Birthday patty for my daughter (35years old). This was one of the BEST experiences we have EVER had at bowling alley!! We did one of the bowling packages and it was great! Included for 10 people: 2 lanes, 2.5 hrs of bowling, 10 pairs of bowling shoes, $150.00 worth of food and drinks. The service was phenomenal! Brandon, Dylan and Liliana made sure that everything went smooth, we were never hungry and never thirsty! The BEST customer service I have ever seen at this place! It was nice to not have to

I don't understand the low rating here on Google Maps. Sure the neighborhood ?appears? questionable and the parking lot looks sketchy. But my buddy and I had a blast! Super friendly folks working behind the counter. High quality, newer equipment, just-loud-enough music, lots of tvs with sports etc, snack counter with lots of goodies and an adequate arcade.

Manny was a great server! Very attentive and made bowling a more fun experience for the group.

Took my girls to this place and we loved it the staff was nice and friendly and we enjoyed ourselves definitely doing this again

Place was great, with a great atmosphere. Manager was awesome with the complimentary games. I will definitely be coming back

I love this place they are all really nice, it's clean I cannot complain.my son has so much fun and they run deals for bowling games at different times.

The restaurant and bar are finally open. Did not eat this time but will give it a try next time! The lanes are kept up, no damaged balls and no issues with pinsetter.

Greta experience. The event reservation system online is easy. The staff is easy going and very kind. We truly enjoyed our party here!

It's always a good time bowling with family and friends I just wish they would fix the Lanes every 3 minutes we have to call the front to fix the machine

Lane stopped working multiple times and the drink wasn't strong enough for me to not care

One of the best Bowling alley in the Aurora , Xender the manger is on point ,no doubt , great experience great environment, great staff 100 percent satisfied.

Remember coming to this place as a kid so I brought my daughter! 5 stars from start to finish but my girl was Gigi at the snack bar! She let me know the special and we had to say yes! ( great sales gal!) AND the pizza was delicious!!!!! We will absolutely be back for the great atmosphere, fun time, and great food! Thanks GIGI!!!

They have unlimited bowling on weekends it's 10pm-1am for 30$ each person plus shoe rental around 8$

The staff is rude, and the place is dirty we asked for 2 lanes for 5 people and they said no u cant with 30 lanes open had to ask for a manager and they still made a big deal about it, been coming here 25 years try some other bowling ally and its fathers day. Took an hour for them to clean off the table we were sitting at and no servers available. It's no wonder they are empty.

Best staff ever. This location is always my first choice.

It was absolutely a wonderful experience for the kids. We will definitely be back. Thanks again

It is a good bowling option. Not the cheapest, and the place is in need of more attention. Our lane kept getting stuck, but the staff was fast to help. Food was disappointing, in comparison with other times that I went there. I know no one goes to a bowling alley for the food, but then I wish they didn't offer it.

Had a good time bowling here Gigi helped me out a lot good staff and team here!!

You can Play 3 games around $100, including shoe rental fee^^ Nice place to build up~!

This place is great, and the staff were so kind and thoughtful! Special shout out to the Andrea and Benjamin for taking care of us!

Had a baller time again!! Get it? (Haha....ha) Anyway I had a great time. Great staff and management quick to fix the pins. Great lanes. Pretty good food. All around good vibe to bring friends and just catch up over a game or 3.

This place was very welcoming and inviting. We bowled a few rounds. But the highlight of my experience here was the food. OMG the garlic Parmesan wings there were fricken awesome. The balls are okay, I do like that the smaller weighted balls had holes big enough from my fingers to fit in. We went during the day but at night man oh man does it turn into a different experience because they shut the lights off and the night experience is enhanced with night lights that seems to make everything glow. Overall I

If you're looking to find a place to relax or blow off some steam, then this place is right up your alley. Haha, get it? Alley? Bowling alley? Anyways, Bowlero Heather Ridge is a hot spot for my family, friends, and I to gather and hang out. Plus, I enjoy some of the leagues here too. And? it's another bonus that the staff here goes above and beyond to make sure we're having a ball (especially Gigi, Benjamin S, Robert, Amy, Brandon, and Xander). If you haven't been here yet, then you need to be here. Do a l

The Caucasian Guy With The Blond-ish Red-ish Wasn't Helpful At All. He Was Very Rude And Ignored The Costumers. While The Other Staff Members Were Very Helpful And Picked Up The Other Gentlemen?s Slack.

The staff was great except for one girl who works at the food spot. The bartender made me feel at ease after a terribly difficult Monday. The atmosphere was fun and warm. All areas were clean and well kept.

Very fun, the staff were super helpful and accommodating!

as an avid pro bowler this is my go to alley. been coming to this bowlero specifically for over 2 years now even though its further from my house. management is great, staff is friendly and the place is overall taken care of.

General family fun experience. A bit much for the experience. The $30 deal that comes with a gaming card is good for about 2-3 games at the current rates (about 5-10 minutes worth max). The lanes are clean but ball selection even during the quieter evening was a bit of a hassle due to placement of the racks. Shoe selection was perfect. Food is priced at movie theater rates but drinks are reasonable. I visited a 2nd Bowlero location up the road near Base (Buckley SFB) and it did have a more welcoming a

Andrea is amazing at Bowlero, she is so helpful and made sure we enjoyed our time while bowling here definitely will come here again! Great vibes and service

Nice lanes with a pretty clean environment. Prices per game are a bit steep, but I believe par for the course when it comes to bowling alleys. Arcade has a wide variety of options, but the air hockey table is in need of maintenance.

Great staff and a great place to bowl

Went with some coworkers. Had a good time! Prices are reasonable, drinks are good. It was fun for a Saturday night out.

Kenan, Andrea, Amy and Xander are the best. Come by and see them! Great service and great lanes!

Love the staff and the alley. Really nice arcade, too, with options for little kids and adults to play and earn tickets for prizes. Billiards by the hour. Clean and easy to locate. Best Bowlero our family has been to. Edit: changed to 5 stars because the staff has been amazing helping us out!

Had to wait for Romeo to stop making out with Juliet at the bar so he could wander over to the main chrck-in and begin assisting the waiting customers. Could see him through the snack bar and into the bar area. Paid for bowling witb a credit card, there was a place to add a tip. Really? A tip for handing me shoes? Definitely not tipping after waiting for you to finish swapping spit with someone who may or may not have been an employee. No prices on the drink menu is a huge red flag. Who knows what you are p

For the most part this place is great. We specifically go on Tuesdays for the deals but then they raised the prices substantially and we're not sure we'll go back. They also don't really clean the tables or bus them regularly so it can get dirty. Everyone is SUPER NICE.

Great staff, love the new kitchen!

Mike the manager was amazing! Very attentive to all the guests.

Other than extremely high alcohol. It's fun and welcoming environment. Although they should lower the music and keep the lights on. Or at least keep half the ally lit up. They are very professional. If you ever go ask for either of the two Ben's, Dillon, Brandon, Robert. And a shot out to my bartender Amy and Tiff!

You will have fun and it's a great atmosphere with a decent sized arcade. EXPENSIVE bring $100 for two people to enjoy your night.

Paying $36 a person (after all the fees) for the cheapest package available (1.5 hrs, only cheese pizza) made this place pretty overpriced. The managers are incredible and very involved, it seems very clean in most areas, but the quality of food and sodas are low. I'm sure they have no control over the frozen food they receive as a chain, but you could taste that the soda syrup and fizz lines haven't been cleaned or changed in a long time, if ever. My group and I still had fun, but definitely went to eat so

Here on a Monday night and the cashier is rude told us it's $9 a game and when I pointed out the sign stating it was 5.49 tonight she huffed and said fine then gave me the wrong size shoe twice! Then we went to order food and was told we have to pay $8 extra on each item, I asked if I was because it was after 8pm and the lady in the kitchen stated it was because they have to cook the food and bring the food out.. Isn't that what the kitchen is here for? The pizza is already $20 each so what sense does that

Good atmosphere. Clean and well maintained. Overpriced to play and drink though. You will drop a pretty penny for a few games and a pitcher. This may be why the parking lot has 15 cars in it on weekend nights.

Fun bowling leagues, food is better than Chuck E. Cheese

Was having a good time until the rude red headed bar tender ignored me and let other people skip me in line. I waited in line for more than 10 minutes before i said ?hey, i would like to order? and she caught a nasty attitude yelling at me from the other side of the bar. Completely killed my mood and the vibe for everyone in my group because we couldn't get more drinks. Next time, I'll drive to cherry creek to bowl for better customer service.

Decent fun! But very overpriced

We've been here a few times, and this was the first time I felt that it was a professional establishment. It was well run and the employees behind the desk were really friendly, not like the past. I'm sure they don't want us to tell this, but we had a Groupon and I didn't read the fine print and it was only good until 6 PM on Saturday and we got there after 6 and they still honored it. Hot wings and loaded fries were amazing. Really enjoyed ourselves tonight! OUTSTANDING SERVICE.

Great deals on groupon lots of fun

Clean bowling alley, with a nice selection of food and beverage. Alcohol is available for adults. Arcade lounge has a nice selection of games to mess with.

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!! The staff found my wallet with about 1700$ I needed for rent and returned it all I will always come back here! I'll never bowl anywhere else again.

Bowling here was fun! They had great music and cosmic lighting and great food/drinks

My friends and I took our kids here last night. There were 11 of us total. The service was great! We got our shoes and lanes quickly. Food was yummy and fast. Prices are reasonable. Most importantly, the bathrooms were CLEAN!

Not a long wait in line and quickly got us a lane. Garlic parm wings and fries were very good. Mixed drinks were good. The manager Benjamin was very helpful during check out. Love going here and will be returning!

Nice and clean establishment. Very friendly staff

Went tonight with my family and had such a great time. Ben from the front desk was so helpful and kind to my young kids. Definitely planning a return trip soon!

I come here with my friends regularly. The manager was very accommodating when I brought a larger than normal group. More friends kept showing up and he was able to give us all the lane space we needed. He even provided individual water cups for all of us. Bowling is always fun, but I that I can come here and have everything we need taken care of.

Had amazing time. My guy Dylan (Dillon)..pls forgive my mis spelling...who's an awesome manager!!! Ensured we were great ?? He even went the extra mile to let us know he was heading home for the day and whi we could speak to after him, should we have any questions or concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”

Are pool tables in arcades still good in this modern age?

Yes, pool tables in arcades remain a fantastic draw in 2025! Games like 8-ball or 9-ball offer tactile, skill-based fun that blends strategy and precision. Modern tables feature smooth felt, responsive cues, and vibrant designs, enhancing the classic experience. Arcades foster a social vibe with casual matches or competitive tournaments, appealing to all skill levels. Unlike digital games, pool’s physicality—lining up shots, feeling the cue’s weight—keeps it timeless.
