The Deal
Approximately 40 minutes from midtown Manhattan, Melody offers 26 lanes of bowling heaven. While the decor's utilitarian at best, patrons don't seem to mind--the low admission and rental prices make bowling there more than worthwhile. If you're a hardcore expert looking for a place to showcase your bowling talent, look no further: Melody Lanes offers a host of tournaments and bowling leagues (including the Junior Summer League and Mixed Doubles League). There's certain to be an option that meets your needs and skill level.
Time to Spare?
Swing by the cozy sports bar to relax, grab a cold one and watch one (or all) of the five televisions. If you're hungry, there's the snack bar at the back of the alley, which offers everything from snack food like nachos and peanuts to serious eats like hamburgers and chicken. Birthday parties and fundraisers are a big hit as well, and though the party room at the back is generally used for staff meetings, for an extra charge, the public can have access for special events.
Special Note
Several organizations for the mentally disabled bring members to participate in tournaments and leagues specifically for that community.

We had a great time at Melody Lanes this afternoon. For NYC bowling, it's reasonable. And the staff were very helpful.

Melody lanes is said to be closed at 12 am Sunday through Thursday according to reliable sites. However, when I arrived on a Monday at 10:30 pm the bowling alley was unexpectedly closed. As if that was not bad enough the woman at the front desk screamed at me for not understanding that the establishment was closed. That is not what I would call good service. Melody Lanes is located in area with not much else to do. Therefore, my disappointment can be understood when after enduring a 20 minute bus ride, the bowling alley is randomly closed.

A good place for former Mark Lanes customers to patronize! Some of the wonderful former staff are there on a part time basis.Family night is a decent deal, 2 games for $12 per person including shoes and free popcorn and a small soda for children.They have a pro shop on the premises to purchase personal bowling equiptment with custom drilled finger holes, something rare these days.The bar is very good and reasonable, and of course there is a snack bar.My only qualm is their selection of bowling bawls, you must search for the right weight and finger holes to enjoy your game.Scoring equiptment is computerised modern,and up to date with fun visual images and a choice of with or w/out bumpers.
