HOURS OF OPERATION
Sunday – Thursday 11AM – 11PM

Our traditional aesthetics are only skin deep – we’ve seamlessly integrated modern conveniences to enhance your bowling adventure. Our upgraded computer system is directly attached to the lanes in order to provide seamless transactions and efficient service. Gone are the days of waiting in long lines to pay for your games. With just a few taps, you’ll be ready to roll and immerse yourself in the fun.
As you select one of our polished lanes, you’ll be greeted into an atmosphere that seamlessly combines the charm of a bygone era with the conveniences of today. From the classic mechanical arms to the state-of-the-art system, we’ve created an experience that appeals to both seasoned bowlers and those new to the game.
One of the most exciting new features is the ability to capture and display images on the lanes. While the old system could only showcase the iconic turkey images (three consecutive strikes), the new system takes it to the next level. Imagine the delight on a child’s face as they see their own picture displayed alongside cartoon animations or other customized settings. Knocking down pins becomes an adventure as they build a monster or unlock special achievements, bringing the joy of bowling into the 21st century.
Shaker Bowl truly is the ultimate family entertainment center, where tradition and innovation merge to offer the ultimate bowling experience. Step back in time while embracing the modern touches that make our center a true gem in the 21st century bowling scene.

Our state-of-the-art lighting features will mesmerize you from the moment you step onto the lanes. With a combination of black lights and strobe lights, the bowling center transforms into a wild spectacle of sound and color. Every frame takes a new turn as the pins, balls, and even the lanes come alive in a dazzling display.
It’s not just about the strobe lights and pulsating beats. Between frames, we kick up the tempo and keep the energy flowing nonstop. We put our glowing surfaces and sound system to full use with dance-offs to crowd favorite songs with prizes given out to winning participants. Challenge new and old friends alike and show the crowd your best moves.
Restaurant hours remain open during Galactic Bowling, allowing for food and drink to flow while the good times roll. Bowlers can order food directly from their lanes which will be delivered without having to step away from the action. Bowl, dance, and laugh to your heart’s content while we keep you fueled up and going strong until the lights finally fade.
