Chinook Bowladrome

Awesome bowling alley. Everything in awesome condition. Place is well cared for by staff. Best place to bowl i've ever been to in Calgary

It is very well maintained and we had a great time with our toddler first bowling experience. Lots of room, very bright and shoes were in really good shape. I don't have complaints about the customer service, everybody was kind and attentive

Old school five-pin joint. I was apprehensive about going here because of complaints about prices and customer service, but we had nothing of the sort. The owner was helpful selecting the best option (1 hour was better than paying for two games) and got us to our lane quickly. The tech is indeed a little old, but perhaps my wistful feelings toward MS-DOS made it alright.

Overpriced in my opinion. 2 people for shoe rentals for two games (30 mins) cost $32.00. This location has outdated equipment from the 90s still in use. 5 pin bowling (small bowling balls) only at this place. I'm sure there are better bowling spots in this city. Wouldn't come here again. Staff here was alright. No alcohol permitted here either.

We went bowling for the first time as a family to Chinook Bowladrome last night. Our youngest is 9 years old and now too old to use the bumpers. The poor little dude had a different image of bowling in his mind and was taking this pretty hard. I was trying to help him realize that he could do well without the bumpers. This was taking some consoling and cajoling; I wasn't getting very far.

We were way over in lane four but Matt, from the front desk, must have noticed. He came over to have a chat with our son. Matt was sympathetic, encouraging, and offered some help/pointers to get our shy kid started.

Thank you sincerely, Matt. You are great at what you do. Your personal touch made all the difference in our evening.

Good bowling place, nice if you like bowling. The technology is pretty old, though.

Rating 4.5 stars.
Had a kids bowling party and it was a success. The kids had a blast and ordering food from them made it easy for the host. We could bring in outside food and the room fit us all but our party group was small. The facility seems well ventilated which made my breathing good as another bowling alley I had to leave because shoe spray was horrible to my lungs. I will say that parking sucks at Chinook but I was warned by this place to give extra time to find parking. The place is outdated but maintained. I wish this place offered glow in the dark bowling for the party but having the bumpers up helped the kids. Birthday kiddo and guests having fun is what it is about. All kids liked their pizza.

If I could give them a no star I would. My daughter is menatally challenged and because she is barely 9 they would not put the ball rail guards. finally, after saying we will just get our money back he said they would put them up. Accidentally, she knocked one over so we asked the guy if he could put up a guard again, and very rudely he replied no. We further explained this to the gentleman who works at the front desk, which I replied oh well that's the rules here. Worst place ever do not waste your money on this bowling place.
