Id definitely recommend Pep Bowl if you live in south phillyĪffordable bowling in the city. We rented the lane for two hours and he let us finish up our last game even tho our time was up with no problem. The lanes are in great condition and the pins are are reactive. I love the old time feel and classic ball return. No BYOB yet but they said theyre hoping to change that.

I moved away from Philly last month and will truly miss bowling here with friends. One of these days we will host a party there. They said that you can rent out the entire alley for very reasonable price and BYO food and beverages. It was definately "vintage" and according to staff it was an old mob hang out! The lanes had railings to prevent you from getting gutter balls (good for the kids) and a ramp for the kids to roll the ball down to give them better aim and distance with the ball. Then entrance courtyard was very sweet and well kept with plenty of tables with umbrellas. My husband and my two and five year old daughters went to PEP this Saturday to bowl a game. We ended up only using 4 of the 6 lanes and had a great time! Jeremy was courteous, helpful and patient and made sure everything ran smoothly for our group. We had about 22 people with plenty of seating on benches and tables with pull out seats by the lanes. The decor is outdated (they do have updated computer score boards though) but everything was nice, clean and fresh. They had set up two large tables for our food, which we brought with us and were easily able to put everything out. We arrived about 15 minutes early and the place was already opened and had the A/C going which was great because it was almost 90 degrees outside. Head over to the old Thomas Colace warehouse, just down the block from Tony Luke’s, Cheerleaders, and IKEA, to keep an eye on renovation in progress.We booked PEP Bowl for our Employee Appreciation event and it was fabulous! From speaking with the staff at PEP Bowl, I had a very positive feeling.
