Editorial Review for Park Tavern - St. Louis Park – by Amy Weivoda
In Short
Park Tavern used to be an old-fashioned blue-collar bowling alley with greasy food, bingo and serious bowlers. But somehow the word got out that this place was a a fun, relaxing spot for the urban commuter too. They started coming here in droves, and the Tavern expanded to accommodate them. There's something to do in every corner of the place: cheap bowling, cheap beer, bingo, karaoke, food and prizes.

we used to go to this place all the time for their friday night cosmic bowling, but in recent months, our experience with the place has been getting worse and worse. The most recent time, I went as far as making a reservation (understandable) for four and when we got there, checked in, paid and put our shoes on we found out that they "put 6 people on every lane" (our reservation was for four) so they were expecting us to share a lane with two people we didn't know. Not only did they not tell me this when I specifically made the reservation for four, they didn't mention it when we checked in and the guy at the counter was incredibly rude saying "well let me know if you want your money back 'cause I got lots of people waiting for those spots" to me, it was the equivalent to making a reservation at a restaurant and having extra people put at my table. Not cool. They were just trying to cram as many people in as possible to make the most amount of money... not caring about the quality of service and experience.. I will never go back.
Pros: It used to be fun.....
Cons: rude staff who crowd people in... crowded

I went in looking for a casual place to meet with friends, get some food, and maybe play some pool or go bowling. The commercials seem nice enough and I will say the place is clean. But after that it was all downhill....the staff is RUDE...at least everyone I came into contact with. The bartender at the front bar (Mike or Mark or Matt was his name). Seemed like we were bothering him when we made an order for a drink. Then after we ordered one round of drinks and went up to get another he told us he wouldn't serve us??!! I was amazed since we had been there for an hour and came in right after work and were all dressed in professional business attire and ONE DRINK AND CUT OFF? I thought he was kidding, but he was serious. If you want to go out and have fun I'd avoid this place at all costs!
Pros: it is clean
Cons: Staff is RUDE, service is poor, the food is mediocre on a good day.
