Bowling and the grill
Back Alley Bowl & Grill is Bishop’s only bowling alley. That makes the place easy to place on a local map, but the visit is not only about the lanes. It is a family friendly establishment with a full bar, so the room serves different kinds of outings in one stop. One group can come for a meal while another heads for bowling, and the same address holds both parts of the plan.
Bowling changes the pace of a meal. Guests can arrive, settle in, and move between the lanes and the table without leaving the building. Families can keep the outing in one place. Friends can split the evening between food and play. The full bar adds another choice for adults who want a drink with dinner, while the grill side keeps the focus on a sit-down meal.
The setup works for a quick visit or a longer one. A pair can come in for a simple dinner and a few frames. A larger group can treat the room as the center of the evening and stay through more than one round of bowling. The building holds both the active part of the night and the table service in the same space, so the visit stays compact and easy to manage.
The name tells the story plainly. Bowling comes first, then the grill. The setting suits a casual dinner, a stop after work, or an outing with kids who want something active before food. The full bar gives the room another layer without changing its core. It remains a place built around bowling and a meal, not a separate bar with a few games on the side. menu page for the kitchen range
