We had our daughter’s birthday here. It was wonderful! The service and ambiance was great! The pizza and cheese curds are delicious! Would highly recommend!

Went on a Tuesday night with a party of 6 for taco Tuesday and some Duck pin bowling and it was awesome.  $3 Coronas and the $2 tacos were filled with meat (no skimping) and other toppings.  Someone in our group ordered the half order of nachos for $7 and it could’ve fed 4 people.  Service was amazing as well.  No complaints whatsoever.  Duck Pin bowling was fun and remember to tip the pin setter, they work their butts off.

My friend and I stopped in for a drink after dinner. We were greeted by a very pleasant server. She showed us the bowling alley. Then she showed us to a table. We had our drinks within 3 minutes of being seated. Our server was very nice and friendly, and she explained their 65c wing special, but we had already had dinner. She brought our bill promptly. It’s kind of a mix between a neighborhood bar and a small bowling alley, with a grill. Prices were lower than average. $4 for a local Oktoberfest pint.

Thirsty Duck is a lot of fun for anyone of any age. We went on a weeknight and only a couple lanes were occupied so we had no issue getting a lane without a reservation. I was surprised by the $30 for one hour but I suppose if there are 6 people in your group (the max number allowed on each lane), this would be a very reasonable price. Unfortunately there were only two of us so I’d look elsewhere in the future for more affordable options as a one-hour activity.

The staff here are all helpful and hard-working. A few details were explained before we got started (self-scoring, tip balls, etc.), which was appreciated as we’ve never been here before. The lanes are nice, with the pinsetters (actual people at the end of the lanes) working hard to keep the game going. About halfway through our hour, only one pinsetter remained, which was fine until another party came in. As fast as the kid was working, it would’ve been better to have another pinsetter. I was starting to feel bad because he was really working to keep up with the two lanes!

Although the bar is in the adjoining room, I would be hesitant to make this a family event during the weekend due to the bar crowd. The lights were fun, decor was welcoming and would love to be here when they open the garage windows. We didn’t get a chance to try the food but the menu looked good. I’d consider returning with a larger group of people in the future.

I’m going to go ahead and say it. Duckpin bowling is by far the superior form of bowling. No rental shoes here, no heavy balls to throw, hand set pins by a neighborhood kid, all in a relaxed atmosphere filled with the good bar appetizers. It’s the perfect thing for corporate parties, family celebrations, networking events, and other more-or-less organized activities. Even the most introverted of people should have a fun time.

The scoring is surprisingly done via a tablet, and is crazy simple to use. Even if you somehow mess up, you can go back and edit scores. Below the tablet are power outlets and USB outlets for anyone to use.

The appetizers are good. I’m a fan of the giant pretzel and nachos, but they do offer tons of other options like rueben rolls, spinach artichoke dip, cheese curds, fried pickles, and so much more. Drinks are reasonably priced, and service is friendly.

The space is unique, as every single window is a garage door that opens to the fresh air. There have been some upgrades inside since my first time here, including additional TVs. It’s always a positive thing to see a place upgraded rather than just kept as it. Plus, there is plenty of parking surrounding the building and the street.

I’m a fan.
