What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Lakeside Social offers a classic bowling alley experience with a restaurant serving solid American fare, particularly noted for its pizza and all-you-can-eat fish specials. While many praise the friendly staff and family-friendly atmosphere, some reviews mention issues with music volume and inconsistent service, especially during busy periods. The mini-golf attraction has also received mixed reviews regarding its upkeep.
"I was visiting from out of town and stopped by with some family to bowl and try the food and drinks. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, which makes sense for a small rural town, but it has a retro charm I can appreciate. We played a few games and the lanes worked well with no real issues. The food was solid, and I liked that they made the pizza well done—it really brought out the flavor. Some of the drinks were a bit average, so there’s room to improve the cocktails, but overall everything was fine. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the atmosphere feel comfortable. I’d definitely come back!"

"Held a Birthday party here. At first the staff seemed to stand offish and kind of rude, but after about 30 mins they warmed up and were more pleasant . The food was good. Sundays are half off pizza , the pizza is delicious and there is a large variety for a bowling alley. They actually have a very large dine in restaurant and bar ! They are very kid friendly. Overall my kids had a great time, the adults had a great time and the food was good. The drinks are a little pricey even for the soft drinks for kids."

"Great atmosphere, very friendly ppl, restaurant attached. Wonderful food!!!!😋 Complaints would be we had a few problems with the ball return gettin stuck. But they moved us to another lane no probs after that. N the lanes or landing not quite greasy enough for sliding when throwing the bowling ball. Otherwise I love lakeside entertainment n would recommend it to anyone including families.😍🤩🥳"
