We had such a cool experience at Mustang Alley's! A group of us went for a birthday party and I'd definitely return. They had so many drinks to choose from (that blueberry lemonade!) beer, cocktails, etc and so much food (the southwest egg rolls were the perfect munchy food, but I would skip the broccoli bites- they weren't too good). The atmosphere was great too- a chill bar, a few lanes, very friendly and attentive waiters. I was also really grateful they allowed us to finish our game even though we hit time. That was really kind. We'll definitely return with the crew again!

I attended a birthday celebration here on a Friday evening while I was visiting family in Baltimore. The bowling alley is located in the Little Italy area. I circled the block several times looking for a parking spot which I finally found on a side street. Parking can be tricky In this area so I read all the signs to ensure I would not get a parking ticket. The outside of Mustang alley & Bistro is unassuming. I had to ask someone standing outside if I was at the correct place since I didn't see any signs. Once I took the elevator up and the doors opened, I was pleasantly surprised. The place is upscale with a large bar area and a nice amount of lanes to bowl. Our host had already paid for the lanes and shoes so when we walked in the friendly staff handed us shoes in our size and I was able to purchase socks for only $2 since I was wearing sandals. The socks were super cute. There were about 20 people in our group and I was starving. I wasn't sure what to expect from the food and with such a large group I anticipated it would take a long time to get our orders back. The young man who was our waiter was professional and friendly, he took everyone's order and did not get anything wrong. Our drinks came out fast, I had the Boozy Blueberry lemonade, it was decent. My entrée was delicious. I had the Crab cakes with a Ceasar salad and fresh steamed mixed veggies. I didn't see my entrée on the menu but our waiter suggested it and when in Baltimore if available I always order crab cakes. They weren't the best that I've had but exceeded my expectations for where we were at. Bowling was fun. Everything was clean including the restroom. Service was impeccable, the food and drinks were good. I had a great experience.

Really great bowling spot in Baltimore with great drinks and fun vibe. I reserved a spot online and it was a seamless process and yes the outside is a little bit misleading at first but once you are inside it's a really cool layout and the music they are playing is great. Would definitely come here again really fun and decent pricing for bowling in the city.

Let me start this off by saying the outside was a little bit intimidating, especially because of the location and the parking... When you go inside, you have to go in an office building and get in a really weird elevator to go upstairs to the alley itself. However, once you get upstairs, the ambience is extremely nice and the music was more than pleasing. My friends and I went here and we had an absolutely amazing time. They both duck bowling and regular bowling, a really great menu with a lot of choices, and our server Kyle was extremely nice, friendly, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of. Our food came out very quickly and was SO delicious, we ate it so fast I couldn't even get any pictures! Highly recommend the Crab Fries and Firecracker Shrimp!! Definitely check this place out, a hidden Baltimore Gem! Great for dates or a fun time with friends!

Solid 4.5 stars in my book! I have lived in Baltimore for a few years and I have definitely been sleeping on Mustang Alley. We came here for a work event and I was so glad to check this out. The inside was very cute and eclectic (the mood lighting and nice seating made it a step above your typical suburban-style bowling alley). The drinks at the bar looked nice (e.g., copper mug for the moscow mules, etc.) and the music was good. They had both duckpin bowling and regular bowling and, of course, shoes available for rent! I loved that I saw staff disinfecting the shoes in between rentals. Just a note - it can be somewhat hard to find. The actual bowling alley is on the 2nd floor (take the elevators from the mini lobby that they have). Would definitely recommend for a party or gathering of some sort!

Food: delicious (especially for a bowling alley) - and there are some gluten free options too!! Score! Ambiance: sooo cute on the inside and very eclectic. One minor downfall is the outside ambiance/finding it - I found it slightly challenging and it's not super well advertised outside! Bowling: mostly great - our lane did stop working at one point but it was fixed quickly and didn't interrupt the game. Would totally return!

In all my time in Baltimore I can't believe I have not been here! This place was so much fun. I went to hang out with some friends and they recommended this bowling spot. The place is kind of difficult to find. My spouse and I walked around looking for the entrance. Its towards the side and you'll have to take an elevator up. Once we arrived the staff was helpful in getting out shoes. Here you will have to give your shoes and will be given them back once you return your shoes. The place felt like a cool bar, like those bars that you imagine you'd be in when you grew up. Kinda classy, kinda kickback. I remember thinking, this is the kinda bar I would love to hang out in. The drinks were delicious and reasonable. The staff was nice and prompt. They served our food quickly and were fast to bring out refills. The bowling itself was a little meh, the machines kept breaking and giving us odd scores. The balls were also getting stuck. It seemed like it was an issue on other lanes. I think overall its fun to be at and look forward to trying it again when in baltimore.

Came here with hubz on a date night. There's a lot of street parking around if u don't mind walking a little. It's located on the 2nd floor of a building.... I THINK kid free after 7:30?? It's a small place but packs a punch. Plenty of lanes all acquired thru reservations only which is good. There are plenty of balls and there's a bar with decent drinks. I wasn't too crazy about the food but everything else made up for it. I would highly recommend to friends or couples looking for some friendly competition and good drinks!

Long before I was a regular Yelper, I used to go to Mustang Alley virtually every Friday night. I didn't bowl but I'd spend my time at the bar, drinking beer, eating excellent food, and shooting the sh*t with the bartenders. The ambiance, despite the sounds of balls hitting the lanes and striking pins, was great! The music was good and the environment was plush, clean with low lighting. I've not been to Mustang Alley in years and am actually surprised it is still open, as I thought it had been bought out or closed or something, plus all that construction on Central was a deterrent. But I recently signed up to be on a bowling league and lo and behold, the league games are held at Mustang Alley! Going back yesterday was just like old times. I took the stairs (never the elevator) and walked back in time. Mustang Alley is exactly as it's always been, there are just people working there I've never seen before. And actually bowling was a ton of fun! I wasn't good at it, but had a blast. The seating at the lanes is tight but comfortable. Staff was constantly coming through the area picking up empty glasses, buckets of beer bottles, and used dish ware. And they made sure we were taken care of. So, great experience per the norm and I'm excited to be hanging out at Mustang's again for this league season and hope to get back more regularly for fun times at the bar!

We came in on a Thursday night without a reservation. Oops! It turns out that Wednesday and Thursday are their bowling league nights so the only lanes available were duckpin lanes. I didn't mind because I suck at all types of bowling but be mindful if that's a deal breaker for you. Additionally, be advised that they close early (9:30 PM) on league nights. The place itself was one of those "bowling but it's cool" places with a bar, a good music selection, and ambiance. Up to six people can bowl per lane reservation and it's $52 per hour per lane. I like the fact that you can order from the lanes and they'll bring your drinks right to you. I didn't like the sticky balls *shudders*. Mustang Alley is a good time and worth a look.
