Before you roll
- 🎳 Bumpers (and at some centers ramps or gutter rails) are offered for young and first-time bowlers at several of these centers, such as Bowlero Tustin, Lucky Strike Ladera Ranch, San Bernardino and Moorpark; ask for them when you check in, since availability is often not listed online.
- 🎳 Weekend Family Unlimited deals run Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm at most Lucky Strike and Bowlero centers, and the price varies by location (roughly $15.99 to $24.99 in Sept 2026, shoes included). Weekday hours often start at 4pm, so check the site before a weekday visit.
- 🎳 Some centers restrict late-night hours by age (for example, Highland Park Bowl is all ages before 8pm and 21+ after), and cosmic or backlight bowling and lane availability change by night, so confirm the schedule and reserve online for busy weekends or birthday parties.
More nearby ideas: family fun centers, mini golf, birthday party venues and indoor things to do. Listings checked September 2026 against each location's own page; promos and hours change often, so confirm before you go.
Frequently asked questions
Can toddlers and young kids bowl?
Yes. Several centers offer bumpers, ramps or gutter rails, and Lucky Strike Ladera Ranch, San Bernardino and Moorpark list them on their pages. Availability varies by lane and time, so ask at the front desk.
Do these bowling alleys host birthday parties?
Yes. Every Lucky Strike and Bowlero location listed offers kids' party packages with private rooms or lanes, and online event booking is available up to 6 months ahead.
How much does bowling cost?
Pricing varies by center, day and time, so check each venue's site. Many run a weekend Family Unlimited deal (unlimited bowling with shoes, Sat-Sun 11am-3pm), and Lucky Strike advertises 'buy two games, get the third 50% off' daily.
