I've been bowling here since I was a kid growing up in Austin. I love this place! They've updated it over the years of course...but it has always been fabulous and fun! It is great for bringing friends and for dates. It is a fun way to spend an evening but still being a active.

Pros: Fun, clean!

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Highland is a great place to go for that quick lunch time bowling fix. Always lanes open and the staff is very friendly. If you need anything, Steve at the Pro Shop is very helpful. Come out and join me and my friends for a lunch time bowl.

Pros: Best Staff in Town, Consistent Lanes, Great Pro Shop

I love the fact that Highland Lanes has a non-smoking area, so we didn't smell so smoky. I also like the individual computer for each lane, so we didn't have to share the computer with other people.

Pros: Good Price, Non-Smoking Section, 1 Computer per Lane

Cons: Small Area

I have to say with Highland Lanes' upgrades that the place is looking better and better. I have been bowling regularly for practice and league bowling at highland for almost 3 years, and of all the bowling alleys in austin it is one of the best. The price of bowling is fair and the staff is very helpful, unlike other places in town. The only other place I bowl practice is at Dart Bowl, which is part of the family

Pros: Friendly Staff, Good Value, Recent Upgrades

Cons: Not enough open lanes, older video games, bar area too small

I didn't enjoy Highland lanes too much because the facilities were not clean and the balls were all chipped or dirty.

Editor's Review

Bowl while eating burritos or burgers, then play some pinball.  See the full editorial review.
