The Scene
Originally a Schlitz house built in 1922, Southport Lanes is a bar and grill with four bowling alleys (where pin boys still do the setting) and a billiard room with six sleek, regulation-size tables. Original… Read Full Editorial
Pool, bowling, food, and friendly service. by Elisa C via Insider Pages on 10/4/2009
Fun, cute place. Pool is expensive, bowling is standard. However, the bartenders are nice and the food is quite good. And, you can almost always get a lane or a table, even on the weekends.
This is a great spot for burgers by Me100 via Citysearch on 7/13/2009
Great ol' standby for some good burgers and a lot of fun.
Great neighborhood spot! by Ashley H via Insider Pages on 6/6/2009
This is a cute bar and restaurant. They have tasty bar food and sandwiches. They also have a mini old time bowling alley where people hand roll the balls back to you. This is a fun and casual spot both day and night.
cool little spot by Craig F via Insider Pages on 3/12/2008
This is such a cool little spot, I'm surprised it's not more popular. They have a few old timey bowling lanes here in the sideroom, several pool tables in the back room, and, wait for it, a ping-pong table! For free!

Great pool room with super high ceilings, large windows, and funky old chandeliers. by innachka2000 via Citysearch on 4/29/2007
We had to come here because our usual pool joint was booked and what a pleasant surprise. The tables are well maintained. The cues are good enough. The pool room is AMAZING with super high ceilings, large windows that open up for a great…
Great retro feel by bbirkholz via Citysearch on 11/1/2006
Have a few beers and shoot pool on a full size table not a coin operated mini table.\r
After than bowl on the same alley your dad did (if he went to Lane)
Lets Bowl by Bob S. via Judy's Book on 5/27/2006
This place is cool, because there are people who will actually set up the pins for you. It isn't done by machine like most places. This makes the game take longer, but who cares. They only have four lanes so there might be a wait if you…
It's The Feel by Douglas M. via Judy's Book on 5/12/2006
This place is most definitely not the best place to bowl, but it definitely is a lot of fun. People go here for the local atmosphere and getting crazy with their friends. This is a nice place to challenge some friends in a weird bowling…
Better Bowling Options by Karen S. via Judy's Book on 2/24/2006
The positive comment I have about Southport Lanes is that the food, for bar food is good. Just good, not great. Also, consider yourself warned that Southport Lanes gets relatively crowded on Friday and Saturday nights. As far as bowling is…
Fun Place by Susan S. via Judy's Book on 8/12/2005
I believe you can rent out the room with the bowling lanes, so it can be pretty fun for a group outing-even work related. I remember they had actual people acting as the ball return, and if you were really nice to them (put a dollar in…
If you're not a regular, don't apply by Miriam via Citysearch on 4/1/2003
This is a cool bowling alley in the hood...But if you aren't a regular or a pretty young girl or kind of hot guy you can forget about anyone paying attention to you.
clicky by ratpita via Citysearch on 11/13/2002
This neighborhood place spins what should be friendly into neighborhoody & stay out if you ain't from here.
The lanes are O.K., the shoes look like they are as old as the business and they are proud of it.
The weekends are impossible if…
Awesome Private Party!! by ctbyrne via Citysearch on 8/28/2002
Best Private Party my company has ever had.
Excellent Food, Drinks, Staff! It could not get any better.
I agree...best bar food! by itascakae via Citysearch on 7/29/2002
Yes---tasty bar food, nice size portions and good beer selection. Fun neighborhood establishments are hard to find, but Southport Lanes rocks! I like the billards also now that I'm into that. Can be crowded at times, but that's the mark…
Great Place! by Whats_my_name via Citysearch on 7/23/2002
I have recently visited Southport Lanes for my first time. What a great place! I bowled like a rock-star, had an awesome burger and tried 3 beers I have never had before. I will definitely be back!
