Bryant-Lake Bowl, where a certain sort of perfect life has been achieved, a life where a love of the vine and a fascination with mastering the 7-10 split exist in beautiful harmony. Read more

Voted Top 10 Bloody Marys ! Our favorite is Amanda's Rock n' Roller made with lots of garlic and mild green Tabasco but maybe the Bloody Caesar made with Clamato or the Bloody Beer is more your style.

Get a seat at the bar if you can and watch Casper work; singing, commentary, and all n all a positive person make the experience at the bar on Sunday an awesome brunch . Get the BLB hash .

Cassie Utt

Love the small theatre ! It's an excellent place to catch local talent. They also have a great date night deal.

Tanya Troska

Amy's breakfast burrito is always a crowd pleaser, but if you're ever in the mood for something more wholesome, you can't go wrong with the steel cut oatmeal with brown sugar and banana !

Amy Britt

Delicious, spicy , salty Bloody Marys ! The Eggsadilla is great too, and never had a bad brunch item there. Staff is always welcoming and great. Love this place!

Amy Sullivan

Unique menu! Delicious food, vintage bowling , fun crowd. Servers are a little full of themselves but that may be a result of serving too many hipsters .

Jake Smith

The BBQ Bowler is the best item on the breakfast menu . Pro Tip: You can substitute breakfast potatoes for the mixed greens. I recommend you do that.

Cole Kennedy

It's like Lucky Strike, except more hip and authentic and now that I think about it pretty much the only thing they have in common is bowling and booze.

Joe Z

They have a good beer selection , but if you've come to bowl then you need to know how the scoring works. There is no automated system - everything is pencil & paper. And lane #5 curves to the left.

Heavy Table

Stop for brunch -- both the biscuits and mushroom gravy and the bison hash stand out as classic examples of Uptown comfort food . Read more

PubPass

A vintage bowling alley , restaurant , and cabaret theater , serving up grass-fed beef , sustainably harvested seafood , and lots of micro brews .

Gluten free bread and buns available. Omission Pale Ale and Lager in bottles. GF people can *eat a burger * and *drink a beer * in public at the same time. Luxury .

Sharifa Simon

Rent out the theater for your next event ! Super accommodating and the staff was incredibly nice!

This is food if your drunk or hung over. All food taste good when your drunk. Even bacon wrap hot dogs in Tijuana. Great place to bowl have fun and drink.

You wouldn't expect to find amazing curried chevre fusilli with English peas at a bowling alley , but that's the type of fare they're serving here. Read more

Antoine

Great place to sit outside with a drink and people watch in an interesting lyn-lake neighborhood .

Brunch rush started around 1030 or so. Granola pancakes ftw.

Kelsey McDonough

Don't know how to manually keep bowling score? Well , then you're in toubs. Also, the girls bathroom smells like red licorice , which is a good th- NO, excellent thing.

Toyo Hiro

Avacado , Black Bean , & PepperJack Omelette is a great vegetarian breakfast treat!

Tonight's date night meal was sub par. This is my first date night meal and it didn't live up to the standards of the regular menu.

Chris Hill

Try the white cheese grilled cheese with bacon ...to die for!!

Old school bowling . You score yourself. Service is slow though. Fun times.

They got rid of the BBQ Bowler , the best thing on the breakfast menu . Ask nicely and maybe they’ll bring it back.
