I went here a few weeks ago for my friends birthday. It's like a hidden gem, I've passed here many times and never noticed it because it's in a industrial area. They had a hour and a half wait for bowling due to a birthday party. We chose to eat first due to this. The burger I had was a little spicy but it was good, leave it to me to order something I have no clue what it is. This came with tots. I had the house tequila and they surely didn't hold back, it was good. My friend was accidentally sent the wrong type of taco, they let her keep it and replaced it with the correct one. You can pay on card or cash for your food and drinks. For bowling you must pay in cash, they have an atm machine inside. We did two rounds of bowling and it was fun although I came in second place. I would certainly go again.

First time outside. Nice time for bocce and great food. Excited for slushies. Friendly staff. Casual atmosphere. Wish the slight rain didn't scare off more people. Wish more people in the respective social group showed interest in many things but South Bowl provided a good time despite the small numbers.

Hey, Yelp family! Have ya'll been to South Bowl in Philly lately? If you've never been, It's definitely a spot you need to check out! I recently went there with a group of friends for a birthday party and let me tell you, it was a blast. First off, the bowling alley itself is top-notch. The lanes are as smooth as a baby's bottom and the decor has a vintage 70s vibe that makes you feel like you're in the coolest retro bowling alley in the world. But the real star of the show was the food and drinks. We ordered loaded nachos, wings, and a few pizzas for the table and it was a feast fit for a king (or in this case, a birthday boy). The nachos were piled high with toppings and the wings were crispy and saucy to perfection. The drinks were also a hit, with a great selection of beers on tap and tasty signature cocktails. And let me tell you, the staff were amazing. One of my friends took a little spill and the staff came to help right away. They were attentive and made sure my friend was okay and even offered to bring ice Has anyone else been to South Bowl before? What was your experience like?

The place's is dope. They had a bunch of choices. Pool. Batting cages. Arcade games. Bowling. Our pizza was okay nothing crazy. But it was also half off Wednesdays, so that was a plus. They did make us leave cuz my kids are under 21 at 9pm. But we knew that in advance. Our waitress sucked tho. I had to go get my own food at the pizza oven area. And plates. And go get my drinks from the bar. Dude was right there to clean up tho. So the bus boys are lit ! But seriously I didn't like that
