Highland Park Bowl

This is the most beautiful bowling alley you’ll ever see. It looks like a film set. It’s a 1920s building that’s been refurbished. The eight lanes have leather couches at the end instead of the usual plastic seats. And, believe it or not, they actually serve terrific bar food at a good price: great pizza, great burgers, great beer. It’s fun for kids, but it’s not created around kids in the way so many bowling alleys are—there are no neon lights. Family hours are until 8pm–after that it’s 21 and over.
