The coolest bowling alley I've ever been too. I'll be back soon!!! Thanks for making the mother/daughter trip that much more special 🙂

Great place for a night of fun with family and friends. In addition to bowling, there are other games such as pool, air hockey and various arcade games. The Back Alley Bar hosts trivia, karaoke, and pool. They have a well stocked bar and good food. The owners are friendly and go out of their way to actually sit down and get to know their guests. And then there's Cat. Cat is actually a dog who likes "scritches" and all the attention she can get. And snacks. She loves snacks. Unfortunately I can't find my picture of Cat. Guess you'll just have to come down and meet her in person. ?

Update: Cat pictures ?

Had a great time there. Bill was awesome. We laughed and cut up while we were there. He made our experience even better.

This bowling alley is okay for Hartselle. It definitely needs some major updating. Other than some new screens, it feels like you are in a time warp walking back into the 70’s to 80’s. I was very disappointed that I could not find the right size ball for my fingers. They definitely need to revamp the ball selection. There is a bar with karaoke and trivia nights. I had kids with me so did not make it to the bar area but considering Hartselle is very limited on place where you can get a drink and hang out, this may be a good spot.

My family and I have come here the past three years to eat and bowl for my moms birthday. Every single time we have had issues with the woman, Susan who typically runs the bar area. Never in my life have I met a more ridiculous person. The first year she made us out to feel like liars as we prepaid for an hour but had to wait for a lane to be available. Once available she tried to charge us again and gets ugly with my mom basically calling her a liar. Year two we were made to feel bad for bringing a cookie cake in to celebrate my moms birthday. These two times we were accompanied by my minor nephews who were allowed in the bar / restaurant area. This year we were thrown out of the bar / restaurant by this woman stating my 1 year old nephew could not be in there because it was a bar. It is a large room and we sat a ways away from the actual bar itself. This has never been an issue before. We sat there for 45 minutes and ordered drinks before this woman decides him being there was a problem and asked us to leave with him. Alabama state law states that children can be present as long as they are with an adult and the place serves food, so by this we were fine, Susan just wants everyone to be as miserable as she is. We tried speaking to a manager and other employees but had no assistance. We were told they had been trying to get rid of her for a while. I think it’s high time you do because at this point you are losing customers due to her sheer hatefulness and coldness towards customers. We gave this place three tries and every time Susan caused us to have a bad experience. Do yourself a favor and drive an extra 5 minutes up the road to Decatur. It is bigger, cleaner and the service is fantastic. We will never be back to the Hartselle bowling alley as they really need better staff that knows how to treat people!
