Too bad this place is closing, the staff were friendly and everything seemed clean. The kids loved it here!

Great food, great games & great vibes! Definitely recommend!Casino rewards program needs some work, random free play coupons sent to my house all the time, and a different promotion every night, but you can only redeem the points you build up while spending money and playing slots on food vouchers, you can't turn your points into freeplay like most casinos(unless I'm missing something which is definitely possible)

I used to go here a lot as a kid, was on the youth league. Really sad to see it's closing soon =(

I would give this place a 0 if I could. Especially after amber the mall cop said we can’t drink water in this establishment. Avoid this place at all costs they only want to take your gambling money and don’t even want you to drink water. This place is a jokeeeeeeeeee

I absolutely LOVE this place! I'm pretty sure that most everyone in Strafford County has gone to Dover Bowl at least once in their life! It's always so much fun while with your friends or your family/kids.. My boyfriend & I use to bring our son when he was younger & it was always the best time. The place is clean & everyone is so nice & the prices aren't expensive at all... So sad to hear they will be closing for good this month!! Very Very Sad!!!

Sad this place is closing soon. Went with my grandson last week and he loved it. Arcade is more for older kids, but we were still able to enjoy our afternoon.

Fun arcade and a casino. My wife and I enjoyed the slot machines, unfortunately we did not have great luck. I had no idea how big this place has become. Will definitely be back!

Gross, reeks of cigarette smoke from the casino. Place includes a non friendly restaurant (good luck getting service) and a casino. The bowling used to be fun. But no longer is a place we will visit.
This place is not that fun! If you can somehow create your own fun while there then maybe you’ll have a chance. The food and beverage staff act like they don’t want to be there so they won’t be the ones creating your fun. The guy in charge of bowling and giving you your shoes generally looks like he’s angry and is annoyed to even have to serve anyone. Took out Candlepin bowling under the assumption that everybody likes playing tenpin the pins are dead and attached to string so it feels like fake bowling. As for the casino, we love casinos in general, but all we do is lose there And all the dealers left, and the ones that remain are the robotic, not amused staff. The arcade now seems like an afterthought, which is constantly sucking the money out of you with machines that don’t work properly and no one around to cash in the tickets that you paid a gazillion dollars to get. we are business owners ourselves, and we always make sure that our customer feel comfortable and welcomed and taken care of that’s what paying customer should be treated they pay and business provide the service in return for that payment. We all work hard for our money and deserve to be treated with at least some respect, I think the owners Of this place must just be an investment group.

Went to enjoy some wonderful singing from Justin Demers. Sad that the establishment never turned of the music via the intercome and sometimes went over Justin ls singing. Great Job Justin!

Ive been coming to this location since the early 90s. I feel safe saying now that I actually hate this place. Every change since the 90s that has occurred at this establishment has made this place incrementally worse than it was before. Why it even calls itself "Dover Bowl" is incredible. Were down to 10 lanes of 10-pin bowling. Candle/Duck pin is long dead, the arcade is a replica of the Portsmouth, NH bowl-o-rama setup and very disappointing with a constantly empty ticket station. The restaurant they built takes up most of the buildings space and the new casino looks nice but this was supposed to be a family bowling establishment. It wouldnt shock me if years down the line bowling is gone completely. Every time I come here there is plywood, plastic wrapping, and tarp for some new terrible deisgn they are about to unfold. Every time I come here its different and worse. Its truly very disappointing this place still exists and calls itself dover bowl. I dont foresee this location ever improving

The casino has taken over the mood of the bowling alley, as well as the food service being directed mostly to the bar. Resulting in poor service to the lanes and family side of the business.
