Where To Go Bowling in Austin

Temperatures are starting to rise and if you’re not ready for our somewhat mild weather to leave just yet, bowling is the perfect solution.

Enjoy in the air conditioning at these bowling alleys around town:

Westgate Lanes

Located at 2701 W. William Cannon Dr., Westgate Lanes is for the South Austin folks. The alley is open daily and has a $27 hourly lane rate before 5 p.m. during the week. Prices go up a little on the weekend to $39 an hour for a lane after 5 p.m. Fridays through the weekend.

Highland Lanes

Highland Lanes is open daily in North Austin at 8909 Burnet Road. Prices start at $27 per lane per hour during the week before 5 p.m. Lane rates increase to $39 starting 5 p.m. Friday until closing hours on Sunday.

Texas Union Underground

I love this one. The Union Underground bowling alley is located on the bottom level of the University of Texas at Austin’s Union building at 2308 Whitis Ave. The alley is open to the public and has great prices. Non-students can play games for $24 to $27 during the week. Make sure you check the alley’s website for the most up-to-date hours!

Pins Mechanical Co.

Ever heard of duckpin bowling? Pins Mechanical Co., 4323 S. Congress Ave., has 20 lanes for duckpin bowling, which uses shorter pins and palm-sized balls. Games are $8 per person Mondays through Thursdays and $9 Fridays through Sundays.
