Got here at 11am on Good Friday and they were able to get me a lane right away. I've been to hundreds of bowling alleys in my life and this was by far one of the nicest alleys I've ever been to. Very well kept, clean, full bar, and the lanes were in great shape. You can tell the owners truly care about this establishment. If you are looking for a bowling alley that's clean and affordable this is your place.
Went with a group of friends over the holidays and had such a great time! There's so much to do and it's a lively atmosphere! Food is also pretty good and drinks are cheap! Definitely plan on going again!
So many things!!! So to start the facilities are great, the bathrooms were clean. The bowling alley is fantastic. We also did the putt putt golf and had a blast have never done anything like it. They have a laser tag and an arcade but we didn't do those things. We did have food and the food was good the only complaint i have is that the burgers were a little dry. The ranch is amazing . The garlic cheese curds to die for. I feel like portion sizes for the price were right on. They have an outdoor area with a
We went here to my grandson birthday party. They had so much fun. The kids bowled 1 game and then played laser tag.
They've really done well with this place. Plenty of lanes with a great dining space and outdoor space as well. The food is good too or at least the strips and pizza.
Always a great time. Dwayne at the Pro shop is fantastic at custom drilling and is the only shop I prefer. After we always enjoy bowling a few games and having some great food.
Sun Valley Lanes said on the phone that they would greet me with a warm welcome to Nebraska and the bowling alley. Currently it is 11: 47am; however they are not letting the general public in and spectators for the 2025 PWBA US Open until 4pm. I'm Sure it will be a spectacular venue. My first live event since starting to follow the PBA in 1977. Sun Valley Lanes & Games here in Lincoln won't disappoint!
Neat place! Laser tag was sweet, and they even let me do it in my inflatable Dino costume which is probably why all the bowling league people were all staring at me. Colin was super chill and showed us the way of mini golf, which was awesome and we even set a few records. Would definitely go back. (Edit) Context: went the day before Halloween
We bowled and did putt putt, if was a Sunday and it was packed recommend making reservations! Such a fun day
Sunvalley lanes is the nicest bowling alley in Lincoln. The staff are friendly and are make it priority to be available to help customers. Sunvalley has much to offer besides bowling. If the family is bored or you want to try to do something different please give Sun valley serious thought.
Surprisingly good experience for laser tag and mini golf! Nice spot to try other things like bowling and volley ball but I guess I'll have to come a second time One of the laser tag vests doesn't work though :(
Whole a lot of fun. We were there for Tyson Treasure Chest fund raiser. Good service very good food and just an enjoyable time. THANK- YOU !
SVL is constantly updating it's equipment and the venue. It's an amazing facility and the staff always makes you feel welcome and like you are part of the family.
Had such an amazing time with friends. The staff was so polite and helpful. We celebrated our 4th year celebration together. I highly recommend.
Amazing family fun and a Phenomenal sports bar. Awesome beer garden and ?? hole area!! Their food is ?? delicious ??
The staff was friendly and polite. We even got our lane earlier than we thought. The bathrooms were clean and the food was great!
Had a company event here and enjoyed our games. Lots of things like Laser Tag, indoor golfing, games and volleyball to do here. Very clean and well run.
Sun Valley Bowling did not disappoint!! We had our holiday party there! Jen made scheduling a group party easy! Brody and Natalie in the bar took the time to take care of us! The food was great and came out perfect for us! I highly recommend Sun Valley for a party or just a drink and dinner with your friends!! Thank you to everyone who took care of us!!
We played Lucky Putt here and had a lot of fun. The employee that worked the area was friendly and explained the course well. It is a different type of course, a nice change from your typical mini golf.
Great atmosphere while watching my bowling team win state. Food is really good with full portions.
Wow! Love this bowling alley. Fun for the whole family. Friendly and helpful staff. Fun electronic score boards. Good food, nice bar area and even a fun arcade.
It is THE place to go to in Lincoln. Great food, great fun, arcade is awesome and so is the laser tag. You can even play a round of lucky putt. Staff goes above and beyond.
Sun Valley is amazing it's the best bowling alley in Nebraska by far. The owner has done a wonderful job making it a fun place for all.
I recently visited Sun Valley Lanes & Games to have my bowling ball serviced at their pro shop. The convenience of online scheduling made it easy to book an appointment, and the staff completed the work efficiently. The pro shop offers a variety of services, including fitting, drilling, and equipment sales. The facility itself is impressive, boasting 32 modern bowling lanes equipped with electronic scoreboards. While I haven't had the chance to bowl there yet, I'm looking forward to trying out their lanes
We had a birthday party for my son and everything was amazing! Staff was very friendly and the food is great!
We had so much fun bowling. I love that there are special games you can play in addition to regular bowling.
The positives about this place first. Very good looking bowling ally. Well kept lanes. Up to date scoring machines. The negatives. The food is over priced for the portion size. They act like they are a sit down restaurant in this regard. Small portions for a high price without the quality you would get at a plain old bar and grill Expensive as hell. Shoe rentals 5 dollars each. An hour of bowling 36 some odd dollars. Really really expensive. The biggest red flag though is the way they time out your hour. We
Manager was EXTREMELY rude to me. I went to grab my bowling ball and crossed the line which was an honest mistake and their promoters rushed me and told me I had to leave. While I was walking out the manager called me disrespectful. Completely unbelievable.
Not too expensive for bowling nowadays, especially the unlimited bowl. The bar is super nice and the food is great. Had a great time, only issue is Lazer tag is kinda boring but that's because the other group didn't want us to go in with them so we had 4 people
Off day on tour was spent here. From 5pm-12am. Great ppl. Fun from the arcade to lazor tag to mini golf and amazing lanes.
Staff was friendly and efficient even when it was the rush for lunch. Our bowlers said lanes were well maintained too
Best bowling alley I've ever been to the food is also amazing, and the employees are really helpful and friendly
They have everything you need to have a great time. So much more than a bowling alley.
Great time here with good food. Bowl, Lazer tag, arcade and some mini golf.
The quality of drinks varies greatly depending on who you order from. During our visit, the machines and scoring systems kept breaking down. The food is good, and the place is absolutely stunning, but the overall experience only merits a 3-star review. Still, it's a great place to bring your family and have a good time. Hopefully, the next experience here will warrant an amended review.
It was really cool, good prices for food, nice place
Fun place to take your family bowling. Clean, well organized, nice atmosphere
The worst bowling alley I've ever been to absolutely so rude and disgusting. Questionable if there's cameras in the bathroom so be aware.
Fun place to go bowling and play cornhole. I do wish they would update their cornhole boards tho.
Lots of fun for the entire family! There's arcades and laser tag as well. The food is decently priced and good and there's an adult bar.
We always have fun bowling and playing the inside miniature golf.
Lanes are way too oily every time I come here I cannot get my ball to curve. I bowl for years I'm not professional by any means but I can hook the ball and I can't get any hook on it very frustrating
Great games. Great food. Great drinks. Great staff. Little expensive but well worth it. Great for kids and adults!
Their bowling alley is the best in town. It's been recently modernized. I like the way there is no steps down like at some other bowling alleys which makes it a lot easier to converse when bowling. They've added some fun games with the bumpers which are fun for all ages. There are lights on the sides, and depending on the color, you'll get a multiplier for how many pins you get. Also have good specials if you get there near opening and also mid afternoon during the week. There is a mini golf inside which
Good place to rest, and delicious pizza
Every time I come here it's always something. Lanes are nice, there's lots to do, and I like their deals, but man the bartenders need some better training. The final straw that resulted in this review was a bartender messing up my vodka sprite. I didn't know that was possible considering the two ingredients are in the name, but apparently she thinks Jose Cuervo is vodka. She must?ve been absent the day they went over types of alcohol in bartending school.
Wonderful place for family fun! Great food. Lots to do...bowling, laser tag, volleyball, etc. Bar as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience tonight.
Work took us here for a team building event, the staff was extremely courteous, shoes and balls and Equipment were all in excellent shape, food was reasonably priced and it was quickly made. One of our group members, his food took extra long so the establishment gave him a drink on the house. No issues while bowling everything worked perfectly, the scoring system all seem to be very good, we had a great time
Amazing clean facility with great staff. So much to do. 32 lanes. Indoor mini golf. Cornhole. Laser tag. Arcade. Decent prices.
Nice clean facility. Very crowded due to tournament. Soda price was extreme at $4 per cup. Facility used large plastic cups instead of disposable with lids. These were rather large in diameter which made it harder to use and to carry to our table. Had to use both hands to drink due to oversized and no lid to prevent spills. Not exactly reasonable for use while bowling. Love love loved the interactive display during the national anthem. Nice touch!! Overall experience was positive and will return!
We had a great time bowling. The lanes were clean and well maintained. It was a fun atmosphere.
Went with out of town family for a night of fun. I seriously can't believe how cool this place is! We started outside for dinner/drinks. The food was delicious and drinks were reasonably priced. Out back there is a large patio with fire pit tables and a huge area for corn hole. Very enjoyable atmosphere. We eventually went in to bowl. Got 2 lanes easily. My bowling shoes were very clean! There is a putt putt golf area, which we didn't play on but did check out, looks super cool! They also have an awesome a
Great place with all the updates!! Had my son's bday party there and the laser tag and arcade was a hit! Mini golf, bowling and a sports bar was also great!! Kids and adults had a blast!! The service was great! I recommend the pizza and wings as well!!
Really like what they have done with this place. The arcade is a bit pricey, but still worth doing. Lazer tag was super fun and the bowling was also a great time. They have. Great craft beer selection as well. We would definitely be back.
I bowl here on Thursday nights. The food is amazing!! The atmosphere is equally amazing! I love all the new updates they made, they tried to have something for everyone. Even if you don't dowl you can go sit in the bar area(they have tables) and have dinner.
The staff is always curious and the facility is clean. We have so much fun with the many activities. Food is some of the best in Lincoln while reasonably priced!
The atmosphere is fun and inviting for all ages and prices are just what they are going to be. We took a group of 8 people and only 7 were going to bowl. We divided the teams up and the team of 3 cost more than the team of 4. Reason was they could bowl more on the same amount of time..... poor excuse but do with that what you will. Food and bar are decent and brought out fresh.
We had a blast bowling! The staff at the bowling counter are great! I did not have a blast when 4 Pepsi's were $18. There was no service in the restaurant and the people that were there never asked why we just sat down where people eat... Either capably offer everything or don't offer it at all.
Wonderful bowling alley for a family. Easy to register online. They have an early bird special which helps saves some coin. Rented out the laser tag and the kids had a great time. We have been there 3 times and the staff has been great. It's a great place to go and relax.
We were told we only had 45 minutes to bowl. Never heard of that. We were on our 9th frame and it the scoreboard was, disappeared. Guy at the front desk told my sister that no matter what u r doing, if you are not finished with your game, that's it, it's over. We were all annoyed by that. Never have I been to a bowling alley that timed u on how long u can bowl., no matter how crowded. Very disappointed. Never will bowl there again. They shouldn't put a time on how much fun u can have. ?? ?? ??
Great bowling alley! It has been decades since I have bowled, and it couldn't have been easier or more fun! The machines track the score,which was great since I didn't remember how. Lanes were clean and well maintained. Staff was courteous and helpful. And the shoes were in great condition and not odiferous.
Took my son here Saturday night to have a good time bowling as the place we usually go to started closing down early..and it was the first time for either of us since the new update. Love the new place. However, it didn't start off too well. Grabbed a pitcher of beer and got my 14 yo son a pitcher of Mt. Dew. Not long after starting our game we were approached by a worker. He said he took it that my kid wasn't 21 and claimed he watched my son drink some of my beer. I knew it had to have been a misunderstand
Great to see all the Special Olympic bowlers, they do amazing job with them.
such a fun place to hang out! the bar staff is always so awesome and friendly, serving up some good drinks! my friends and i love to hang outside by the fires! 10/10 would recommend!
Our business had an employee appreciation day at Sun Valley Lanes & we could not have been happier! From the very beginning, coordinating with Jen was easy, efficient, and she was very accommodating to our large group. The food & drinks were fantastic, plus everyone had so much fun bowling and going to the arcade. We're grateful for the experience & will definitely be back for events in the future. Thank you!!
So much fun and good prices.
Great place to bowl. Have good drinks and food too
Really fun place. Was super busy when we went but they have a wait list and text you if they don't have any lanes available. Super kid friendly. The food was amazing and they also have a really nice bar area!!
Dylan Hier was the most helpful person I've ever met, if you guys meet him. Just expect the most outright and best service. He went above and beyond for our group and helped us in every way possible. I'm not from Lincoln, I'm actually from norfolk, but we had a party of 50 and he made sure our needs were meet more than exceptionally well. I love this place. Favorite tech staff @ Dylan. Rick was the best kitchen staff could?ve asked for. Rico was also the best security staff I could?ve asked for as well, Zoe
Fun, clean and affordable
Sun Valley Lanes & Games is a great fun center for the whole family! Amenities ranging from bowling, mini golf, laser tag, arcade, bar/lounge, and yard games!! All around great customer service. Would recommend for any event!
This is a great place to hang out if you're a parent with older kids. My friend and I had a lovely evening talking on the patio while our kids played laser tag and arcade games. The menu offers something for everyone.
Nice building and new things/ equipment, but at least for bowling its awful. There is a level of oil and grease on the lanes that surpasses overdone and reaches gross. It gets on your hands and clothes if you dont wipe your ball of literally every frame. Id never choose to bowl here
Been here plenty of times and I've always loved it! The food is good and I've never had any issues with workers or machines. If you're in the area and in need for some fun this is a great place to go!
Both my children and our 5 grands decided to do something different after our Thanksgiving meal. My daughter called to reserve 2 lanes for the 9 of us (you can have up to 10 people). My husband and I are in our 60s all the way down to the 3 year old and even the 7 month old baby attended. We had a blast!!!! We bowled even though none of us are really any good. Then we switched to I would call it digital mini golf. The kids ranged from 3 to 13 and LOVED it. Bells, whistles, bright lights, vivid colors. It ha
Guy behind the counter was rude. We just wanted to bowl a game with our grandkids and he acted like the place was full. There were plenty of lanes. We almost walked out.
Overall the bowling, the other activities, and the facility are rather great. However, many of the times that we go on Friday nights, the staff are not very respectful towards us. They often make us feel as though we are not quite welcomed there and it makes the rest of the night feel uncomfortable. I get that it gets partially busy and that it is late at night and the staff want to go home, but if they feel that way, then I do not think they should be working the night shift if they are going to act that w
This place is awesome!!! Great place for your family or just a good night out with your lover. The food is mouth watering good as well. They have mini golf, laser tag, Cornhole in the spring/summer, sand volleyball (same deal as Cornhole), various Hasbro board games built into your seating table for the lounge, large connect four and Jenga as well. Huge fire pits are also on the patio to keep you toasty in winter time if you're a smoker.The managers are very nice and the owner is truly awesome! His name is
We've been here quite a few times with the kids. On 10/27/2019 we had a birthday party for my son there. We chose the Teen package. Everyone was helpful and nice. The pizza was great. And the most important part was that the kids loved it and had a great time. Package included cards for the arcade. Thanks again!!
Lanes are pretty good here, I do miss when they cared about bowling here, but then they added mini golf now and the place is just sad now. Also 32 lanes, place is known for bowling, and we can't get comfortable seats to sit in for hours on end? But gonna charge and arm and a leg for bowling.
First time I've bowled here in a long time but I won't be back. The lanes were so heavily oiled it was absolutely gross! Thankfully I had a towel because I definitely needed it. Hopefully it was an unusual situation but I'm not expecting to head back.
This was the first time that I was at this bowling alley it was quite a different experience. Not the typical run-of-the-mill bowling Ally that I remember when I was younger. I was able to book the lane online which makes things a lot easier to book a time that everyone was available in the spot was reserved so we knew that it would be there even if we were late. There was mini golf an arcade room which unfortunately due to covid was closed. Appetizers were decently priced and the sodas you were able to ge
My oh my what a fantastic establishment. I came in here with my first born son for his 7 and a half birthday. We figured a pleasant trip to the bowling alley would do very nicely for our lovely little Johan. The parents split off from the younglings to have a slightly tipsy round of pin knocking on lane 26. Johan and his acquaintances ran off to laser tag. When little Johan came stumbling back from the laser arena he wouldn't stop talking about an employee with the name Benjamin. He was going on and on abou
We had a blast ringing in the New Year while bowling and enjoying good food! Bright and clean and the staff were very nice and helpful! Highly recommend!
A great place to go bowling. I haven't done any of the other activities but I'm sure they're definitely up to par. My son bowled here so many times weather it be tournaments or leagues all great experiances. By the way if you have a little one that is looking into getting bowling. Their youth league is absolutely amazing. Duane does such a great job of helping the kids. If you show up a half hour early you get free lessons.Also the food is great.Thanks for everything over the years guys it's been an amazing
Try the hyper bowling if you're in for a good time and not worried about your bowling skill level. My daughters loved it and we're each able to win multiple games, which made it much more fun for all of us. The facility was clean and the food was adequate. There are many TVs and a full service bar. Mini golf, laser tag, an arcade, and outdoor volleyball courts round it off. A fun adventure indeed.
Good food and great atmosphere. Lots of things to do and have fun.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.”
