I cannot say enough good things about this place. The atmosphere, the friendliness, the "Cheers" style customers...it was exceptional. We were in Burks Falls for a week, and most of our time was spent here. I fully intend on coming back. Thank you for the wonderful memories

Had a great time. Love the decor, someone put a lot of time into it. Owners are super nice, fresh and friendly. Great service. Will absolutely make it a regular spot. Little gem in the heart of Burks Falls. Who knew!

Had a really great time - this place is like none I have ever seen! Has you walk in, you know that you'll have a fun time. To your right are the five pin bowling alleys and to your left is a cool pub / bar area. On both sides bowling alleys, you'll find thousands of sports memorabilia - it's pretty impressive! We will definitely be back next time we are in Burk's Falls!

Hailey & Dan have created an absolute gem here. The lanes are packed, the whiskey selection is unreal, and the pool table is in view of the big screen. I learned they often have live music too, although I haven't made it yet. Straight up, this spot is wicked
