This BBQ is fabulous! the Burnt Ends are especially fine, the brisket and the wings also. They have many different well thought out sauces to go with, and all the meats are juicey, flavorful, and tender. The prices are right on mark, and im just glad they are consistently spot on. To have a great source of awesome BBQ on The Cape is fortuitous. The potato salad is super and you really have to try it. They also serve adult beverages if you like. They are very friendly and you can see the dedication of all involved. That right there, specifically, is what makes this place soooo worthy! Never a bad experience.

DO NOT PLAY THE ARCADE!

You have been warned.

Most of the games are broken and the ones that are not will take credit off your card but will not give credit to play. Multiple games exhibit this behavior and no one on staff seems to care when you mention it. By far the most frustrating experience I’ve ever had in an arcade that’s supposed to be fun. $20 completely wasted.

Food and bowling were ok. If you are used to true southern bbq you might be a tad disappointed but not bad for New England area.

I got the Brisket and ribs meat plate with sides of collard greens and potato salad. It was a huge amount of meat; it could either feed 2 with an extra side or be a second meal. Meat was delicious, tender and had a lovely smoked flavor. The collards were tasty, but undercooked, not really Southern style. The potato salad was good; I prefer it a bit chunky.

Forced to leave the bar area because of the drunks and foul language. Not what I expected from a "family" business.

Great bowling and good food !

Great place! Suggest they join the rest of the world on one issue....when a keg kicks during a pour, ring a bell, and that beer is free....lots more fun for everyone and doesn't really cost much.

We had our son’s Bar Mitzvah party at The Alley and could not have had a better experience. Had about 80 people, 40 adults and 40 kids. Everyone had a fabulous time bowling, playing video games, eating amazing food, drinking Shirley Temples and whatever adult beverage needed. They even made sure we had room to get the traditional celebratory “Hora Dance” in and the Bar Mitzvah boy lifted up in a chair. It was a blast! Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a fun day or night out. The staff was amazing! So gracious and super responsive to whatever was needed throughout the 3 hr party. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

We bowled a few games followed by dinner. Our lane was cleaned and vacuumed before we started and the wait staff was very attentive for drinks while we bowled. Dinner was good. Our friends enjoyed the fried pickles, my spouse had the chicken pot pie. He mentioned that it was light on chicken though. my farm salad was as delicious as usual. Overall it was a good night out with friends.

OMG I ate here 3 times before writing a review, and the food here is beyond legit.
After having their amazingly delicious 1 lb chicken parm dish (not just the biggest but also the cheapest and probably tastiest in town), I scarfed down their steak and cheese quesadilla (also fantastic), but it's the Alley Burger that brings me here today.
I've been to 27 states in the U.S., tried burgers in them all, and this is one of the greatest if not THE best burger I've ever had.
Just straight quality meat, perfectly cooked on a delicious brioche bun.
The next time I come here (which I will be soon), I think I'm having an Alley Burger with a side of ANOTHER burger!!!

We went on a rainy day and it was super packed so service was a bit slow. However the server herself was awesome.
We didn't get to bowl but noticed that the families there were having fun. We will plan for that next time - maybe try it on a non rainy day on the Cape.
