We brought our kids here last week, a lot of things for them to do, besides bowling. We enjoyed the food, and the bowling! Great time!

We have two boys and we always have a great time at Big Al's! If it is too busy to bowl the arcade area is a great back-up activity. We've only eaten there a couple of times and the food was good too.
