Splitsville Calgary Glamorgan

First the bowling, this is the first bowling alley I have been to that actually had chunks that have come out of the balls and they are still in service.

Second the bar/diner avoid. The food we ordered was lack luster, the beverages were flat. I went twice to order a beverage while we were playing and was totally ignored both times leaving with nothing.

After reading the review from the people who put $500 down, showed up, and couldn't get in, no thanks.

Terrible business. Our friend booked a reservation for his birthday months in advance. He put a $500 deposit for four lanes and when our group of 20 people showed up, they not only didn’t have any of the lanes, the assistant manager suggested to him that he booked at the wrong bowling alley. It wasn’t until our friend showed him a receipt that he apologized, but then said there was nothing he could do. Shrugged his shoulders and just offered to refund the deposit. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE!

Came here for my birthday and had an amazing time!

Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

This place back in the 80’s must have been the joint.and honestly, still is! Thx again!

I arrived at bowling alley and was greeted by a very un friendly lady. She was not helpful at all in helping our family. I had to make suggestions to allow us to bowl. When spending this kind of money for bowling you should receive decent service.
Maybe she had a bad sleep. If you’re not happy where you work change it!

I booked four lanes for a party of 20 approximately one month before my bowling date on November 18th, 2023. When I showed up the lanes I had booked where given to someone else and no suitable explanation was provided. Unacceptable customer service and I would not recommend booking large groups here.

Had a birthday there. They were super helpful.made it great for our group.
It was a great time for all of us

We had a great time bowling at Mountain View. The facility is spotless clean, well organized and accommodates all ages and skill levels. We had a great time with our three year old.
Definitely a safe and fun family venue!

I booked a birthday party for my child here. My booking got messed up (I’m unsure if it was my fault or theirs) and it turned out I had only booked two lanes for bowling and not the birthday party package which should include some pop, pizza and a party room. I discovered this 4 days before the party so no big deal right? I spoke with a manager there to try and straighten it out and she was miserable to deal with. I asked if I could just add the pop, pizza and room and of course I’d pay the difference. At first she said they couldn’t add the pizzas without 5 days notice. I said “really? You can’t get pizza together in 4 days? Can I bring my own? ” She said no outside food allowed but she would try to organize the pizza but it would be an extra $28 each and fountain pop is $8.50/jug. I’m like ok I need to have it. I asked how much for the room. She said the room was under renovation and unavailable so we could eat at the lanes. Ok fine.

One guest to the party unexpectedly brought their brother. They wouldn’t let me rent shoes for him without renting a whole extra lane we didn’t need. Another $78.

All in all I paid about $565 dollars for two hours with 11 kids. The manager was surly at every turn. Also the pizza was foul. The cheapest possible frozen pizzas. I feel ripped off and mistreated.

Lanes were fine though.

Edit: I did write an email to them as suggested in their reply. A month later they have not responded.

Good bowling alley, gives off early 90s vibes other than the modern tunes being played to mask it a little bit.
I personally think the food and drinks were overpriced compared to other bowling alleys.
Also not wheelchair accessible so be prepared to use the stairs. All round good experience.

This place is great! Awesome stuff! Love that you can play 5 pin or 10. Food was good as well. We'll be going back for sure

This is an old school bowling alley (but they all probably are, eh?) located in the basement of the plaza. There's no wheelchair-friendly anything option, ie.elevators, automatic doors, and washrooms.

Parking is plentiful in the plaza. There's a long set of stairs to go down. You will see 2 areas of bowling with a restaurant and enclosed rooms in between.

We hosted a birthday party here. The food was of the frozen variety but made everyone happy. We had pizzas and donuts. The service was mostly excellent except for one staff member who clearly did not want to be there.

The 5-pin small ball bowling experience was good. The kids had fun and were everything one would expect from an old-school bowling alley. We do appreciate this place as there's not a lot left and unlikely to see any new ones grow.

Come here for some nostalgia and easy fun.

Aaahhh i was so excited to come here. The retro 90's bowling aesthetic was everythinggg. Although we gave a big fat juicy tip, from the moment me and the gang pulled up over here it was just giving bad vibez. These bombastic staff log had the audacity to side eye us, roll their eyes and overall make us feel unwelcome with their lack of basic decency. Lowkey tho it was bc of our race. Us brownies in this flour ppl area was NOT it. Anyways you guys need to babarahmatullah and skidaddle away from this place. Their customer service is flabbergastingly atrocious.

Staff was rude specially ladies at the counter don't know anything about customer service. To yell at customer is something that is way too much. We were a big group with kids didn't want to ruin our fun by arguing with staff. Never coming back here again.

The staff at the counter were really rude and unfriendly. Tbh gave racist vibes - we will not be returning to this place ever again. Staff were also really harsh to first time players that didn't know any better.

Terrible. Called in advance to make a reservation and they told us it wasn't needed - showed up they refused to let us bowl. Absolutely brutal, drive anywhere else to go bowl besides here.

Really bad experience. Employers were racist and they were yelling at us. We will not be returning.

By far one of the worst bowling experiences ever. Don’t go here, although the aesthetic is half decent, the staff is very unfriendly and will ruin your experience. There are many other places that will give you a better and cheaper experience.

Today Went with family for bowling, staff very rude, don't know how to talk with customers. We felt unwelcome as well as don't want to visit again

Meh.

I would not recommend booking this place for a group event unless you have full commitment from everyone. It was also quite expensive. (Worked out to just $50 a person for a group of 10. Bowling shouldn't be that expensive!)

Our group had a good enough time, but checking in was painful (they wanted the names of everyone who wasn't there yet?) And having people pay for shoes as they arrived seemed to be a monumental request. They wanted me to pay for them when I checked in.after I'd already told them I didn't know how many people were going to show up.

You can play 5 or 10 pin bowling. Spacious enough for a big crowd. Some times machines don’t work properly. Friendly staff.

Terrible place, called to get a quote and the person was super rude. I strongly recommend going elsewhere.

Glitchy lanes! Poor customer service!
We had lane 15, it was glitchy. The electronic score keeping misrecorded my scores about 4 or 5 times in the 2 games we played. The pin set up machine also set up the wrong number of pins several times. The second time I complained I was told that there was "only 21 minutes left anyway", the insinuation being that I should just put up with it.
