Reviews of Dust Bowl Lanes and Lounge

Shannon Hood

The Karaoke room was so much fun! We enjoyed celebrating my mom’s 60th birthday. Matt @ Dust Bowl really took care of us. We will be going back.

Jill Rowlan

I had a group of people there for a couple hours for a game. We had a great time! The employees are so nice and helpful. I was only able to email with the manager, Sarah but she was great too! We will definitely go back!

Sylvana Hall

I enjoyed it. Its intimate with nice seating and a table. Its a good price, food looks good on the menu. Overall a good place :)

Mandi Curtwright

Had a blast on date night! This place had great food and wasn’t crowded.

Ashley Duncan

Had a fantastic time! Made a reservation in advance (one month out) and the service we received was awesome! Great food, great service and I had a great time with my date! Will definitely be stopping by again!

Great place to hangout and bowl, they have a full bar, karaoke bar and a total of 8 lanes if you include the private lounge. Small menu of food to choose from to keep the kitchen simple and moving fast. Food and atmosphere is excellent.

Larry

Friendly staff, great service and food. We held a photography meet up group here and everyone had a blast. We photographed some beautiful models and enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere.

Tekisha Powell-Lattimore

Such a cute establishment. I was pleasantly surprised with the service, the atmosphere, food and drinks. Definitely a diamond in the rough!!

Liz Mackenzie

Lovely bowling alley and great place for adult parties. Would give 5 stars but mixed drinks were WEAK.

Natasha Scroggins

Unfortunately we didn't get to bowl our hour, but they did work with us and comp the price. The lane was not cooperating

Penny Mcspadden

Had a great experience during a private event. Drinks were excellent 👌 …

Although this bowling alley is small, the environment and service was great. The food was delicious. The staff were extremely professional.

Carrie

I reserved two lanes for my moms birthday. We had such a great time! Friendly staff, full service bar, and great food!

Amber Quaid

Cute, small bowling alley with a decent bar and nice staff. It's great for small groups!

Katherine Grant

Great food and drinks and an awesome atmosphere, but watch your time while bowling. If you go one minute over, you’ll be charged for another hour. Overall a great night out for friends or a date.

Suzie Greene-Bisbee

It was a fun experience until a birthday party came in and crowded our space. The service was great until we were pushed out before our time was up. The birthday party even asked us to move our trays over for their cupcakes as if we didn't have the right to the space in our area while they had plenty of empty space that they had already taken over and on the opposite side that they could still use. Just be considerate of all paying patrons. We all pay and expect the same experience.

Chris Fellure

Fun spot for bowling, and they have a drink with cocoa puffs in it!!!

John Williams

The customer service was exceptional. The atmosphere was really refreshing. The retro look was a welcome change from large commercial lanes. It is a cozy space, however, with only 8 lanes. Plan ahead, make reservations. Will definitely return.

I thought I loved the Dust Bowl before, now I can say I really love the Dust Bowl!! Back in December I made a reservation for a lane then later received a phone call informing me that they accidentally double booked their lane. They told me they would cover my tab if I wanted to reschedule. Fast forward to March, a large group of friends I reserved a lane. I walked up to the bar to ask if I could still use that offer for my drinks that night. Honestly, I was mentally prepared to argue for my free tab and had their voicemail ready to play back to them—but they didn’t even hesitate, they told me they had me covered. Little did I know, they covered my entire group—the bowling and our food/drinks! My whole group was so shocked and impressed. Thank you!!

Tamra Watts

Everyone is always super nice, and the drinks are good. Everything has a fair price, but the lanes seem to mess up when we are there. They sometimes don't score correctly or the pins don't get put down. Still a fun place!

Phillip Rye

Great experience! We’re were there for daughters 16th bday party. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Very affordable for 15 kinds. Bowled for 1 hour. Karaoke for 1 hour.

Anna Taylor

I love the dust bowl. Ive been there about three times. It is fun and it really seems like your in a retro bowling alley. I've never had food there but the employees were really nice everytime I've gone. But my issue is how super greasy the bowling balls are and how slippery the floors are. The lanes are bumpy and I'm worried ill bust my butt on the floor everytime I go up to bowl.

Tyler Herron

Best bowling alley in Little Rock. It's small (8 lanes) but that makes the atmosphere perfect for small parties. Service is great, drinks are awesome. Will go again for sure.

Sarah

The Dust Bowl has a cool vibe overall. You will want to reserve a lane ahead of time on the weekend, or you will be waiting a few hours. $30/hr on the weekend is worth it for the atmosphere, for sure. A big plus is that it is next door to Fassler Hall, if you want to grab a bite or drink afterward.

Jen Willard

You need to visit this place. Parking can be hard to find but it is worth it! I visited during the 4-6 window. M-F when they have happy hour pricing. My friends and I played two games of bowling and rented shoes. We ended up spending less than $5 per person and the atmosphere was great. I will be back!!!

Rhonda Mattox

Loved the spot. Friendly staff. Karyoke available on Thursdays. Ambiance nice-vintage, cute. Could have given a 5 easily but it was really small. We arrived at 3 pm and were told that we could bowl by 10 pm bc they had reservations that were confirmed until that time. We stayed and ate anyway and a lane was open in an hour. Food was ok--not great, not especially bad. We didn't eat all the queso or fries and we normally do. My colleague was disappointed bc the milk shake machine was down. The milk shakes were a bit pricey anyway-$8 which was as much as my black bean burger (that was really good.) That said-- I still intend to return with a group on a Thursday night for karyoke. But I will DEFINITELY call ahead for a reservation for a lane and eat something great to eat before I go.

Eric Carter

I love the giant crystal punch bowl. There's two private bowling lanes for parties, then a half dozen or so public lanes for booking. There's also private party rooms equipped for karaoke, kitchen/food menu, and a full service bar.

Alek Eurich

Come for fun, not competitive bowling. Really a mid-century modern photo op with great snacks and a tidy bar. Bowling is fun and not obtrusive. Great staff!

Ryan Klare

Very cool place. Smaller than a conventional bowling alley, but still plenty of room to sit and eat/drink. Very reasonably priced if you split it between a few people.

Mr. Walker

It was my first time here, slow service and it wasn't a large crowd, not busy. Food took a long time to get served.

Lacey Newell

This place has a great retro feel to it. It's a bowling alley that doesn't forget it's also a bar. Super fun place to hang out, the whole vibe was just super awesome!

Franklin Plegge

Great place. Fun atmosphere with very friendly service. Food was good and the shakes are awesome. I still suck at bowling but it's a terrific spot.

Asti2425

Coolest place in town!!! Where else can you bowl and Karaoke? Not to mention they have great food and top notch "adult beverages". Try the Vodka Pom Punch Bowl!

Rj Edwards

Great time with the wife today at Dust Bowl.....Hey it’s downtown so yes parking may be an issues but hey we all need to walk every now and then....wife and I had fun....wish it was a little bigger but other than that....great place to bowl.... Just what Little Rock needed downtown....

Kyle Crain

The crew here is like none other! Excellent job keeping the drinks coming and very personable. If every bowling alley was like this, I'd go every weekend!

Urban Affairz (Steven Stanton)

Had a blast. Haven't bowled in years. Staff was Polite and friendly. Food was Great and not expensive.

Brandy Lyman

had a blast at a friend's birthday party! we packed the place out, but they kept up well w/ smiles on their faces! we'll be back!

Matthew Strauss

This place is pretty cool; it's styled like the late 70's I think. Make sure to make a reservation for lanes several days in advance for the weekend.

A Crocker

We've reserved the private area twice for birthdays and it's been fantastic. Good food and amazing service!

Stephanie Grant

The perfect place to have a party, a date night, or just an afternoon to wind down. Complete with full bar and karaoke room... Where else would you want to go?

Spicey Fajita

Really a neat place to hang out with a group of friends to bowl, sing or have a few drinks. My only issue was that it was so cold inside.

Winifer Johnson

It was me and my husband's first time going, we really enjoyed ourselves. We will be back again!

My family was celebrating a sister 60th birthday who had loss so much over the last 20years! First she loss the love of her life to a tragic vehicle accident and 10 years later she loss her oldest daughter who was only 26 years old to debeties and then her own health began to fail, but God! God made a way for her to have a LVAD placed in her heart a year ago and this was way her 60th birthday was so special! The dust bowl allowed us to cut loose in their private carokoke room and sing and dance like we use to do when we were kids! Thank you Matthew for great customer service and we will be back!
