User Reviews for Diversey River Bowl

Let me tell you this... it does not have Ten Pin Lounge decor, but who gives a sh*t. You are putting on clown shoes and looking to blast some pins. The staff was accomodating and the drinks were strong. We ordered up some greasy appetizers and played a few games and it was $20 a person for a night out to bowl. Drinks are priced moderately and we drank a ton of em. Good time... relaxed place and I was serving up Turkeys all night.

Diversy Bowl is by far the best in the city. All the people are great and the atmoshpere is as good as a bowling alley can get.

A film was made and presented August 26th at the century theater of Monday nights at the Rock and Bowl. It was a part of the Chicago film festival. Great Movie.....Great Rock and Bowl
Pros: Great Music, Great Light Show, Fun Staff

The ONLY game in town on the near-North side! All the others (ok, Waveland) are too packed-out and expensive. The music could be a little more diverse, though--as in, urban.

lanes were so oily i fell right on my a#$! nonetheless, diversey does rock...good greasy grub, cheesy 80's music, having your picture come up on the monitor when it's your turn, friendly staff..and that obnoxious sign out front..you might think you're in vegas! can get a bit expensive for a saturday afternoon if you spend them there like i do swillin and throwin a few games, but that's chicago for ya..

We were in our fourth frame of the first game, when suddenly the lights went out and the bowling pins began to glow with a light blue haze. Dance lights came on and scanned across the lanes. Welcome to rock and bowl. This place has a full bar with various taps and plenty of room for sitting after you play. The lanes are very sleek, with stools, rather than the typical plastic seats. The display screen is high-tech and has cool stats, like the speed of your last roll. Before you get a lane, you have to put a coin in a machine and put your names in and indicate whether or not you need shoes. Lanes are paid by the hour ($20), not the game. It's a slightly steep price, but well worth it for the quality of the lanes.
