I returned to bowling after 20 years and been living under a rock. Highland is older but the staff is excellent. I joined a league to see what I had been missing and am not disappointed. $9/person unlimited bowling on Sundays (8-12mid) is the bargain of the year. Never had the food but heard it was good. Went to other bowling alleys since and I like this one best....it's HOMEY.

Austin Standard in Bowling

by txredheart at Citysearch

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!

Bowl while eating burritos or burgers, then play some pinball.

In Short
The alley, built in the mid-1970s, but fully updated, has a quaint, small-town feeling. Al 40 lanes have automatic scoring, plus tables for eating and drinking. A small arcade adds to the gaming options. The crowd is diverse, including groups of teenagers, couples, young professionals and families with kids of various ages, since bumper bowling is available. Between frames, enjoy tasty grilled bacon-and-cheese sandwiches or Tex-Mex grub. There's also a full bar.

Lunch Time Fun

by paulb at Citysearch

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

Great Family Gathering Place

by Hello_Kitty888 at Citysearch

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

Highland Rocks

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

Over-rated

by nathanstull_citysearch at Citysearch

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