Bowling: Verb; the simple act of throwing a heavy ball down a thin wooden raceway in hopes of knocking down plaster hourglasses. It’s a sport as American as the 57 Chevy and Rock music. Below you’ll find a short list of the best bowling Montgomery County has to offer. These are perfect for great family fun or a night out with a significant other.
Facinda Witaker Lanes

Of the three featured here Facinda Witaker is the one I recommend the most. This fifty lane bowling hall is open 24 hours and features laser light games and bumper bowling. If you’re not there to bowl and just bringing the kids you can stop in Steppy’s, their full service sports bar complete with several TVs and all the beer and food you can imagine. In addition to Bowling and eating you can also spend time in their Game Galaxy arcade hall full of the latest top of the line videogames.
Facinda Witaker Lanes is located on Swede Road, and easily accessed by Germantown Pike.

I’m including Thunderbird Lanes for purely nostalgia reasons as some of my fondest memories have their roots there. Personally it’s been nearly twenty years since I’ve stepped foot inside the building, however from what I can remember there I had some great times attending school friend’s birthday parties, school events, and light show bowling. From people I’ve spoken with the place seemingly hasn’t changed since back then.
You can visit Thunderbird Lanes Monday thru Thursday 10am to 11pm
Friday 1pm to 1am
Saturday Noon to 1am
Sunday 9am to Midnight
