Cigars-Cigars-Cigars-Cigars

Who doesn’t love bowling? This retro sport has had a resurgence in recent years with televised bowling championships and updated, modern bowling alleys with technologically advanced sound and lighting systems to make the experience fresh and new. If you’re looking for something to do with your friend beyond the usual night at the bar think about going bowling next weekend for a fun, involved activity that you can play with a drink in your hand or you can just chill and watch from the bar stool.

Flahertys Arden Bowl

Flahertys bills itself as a family friendly, down home Irish bowling alley and bar that has been serving the community for over 70 years. Family owned and operated since 1938, Flahertys is located in the Arden Hills community situated nicely between both towns and not far from 694. Also in close proximity to Bethel and Northwestern College, Flahertys is popular with the college crowd on my nights but they are Christian colleges so they are well behaved. Flahertys has a number of great deals like $6 beer pitchers and free party bus rides to Wild games on specific days. For a down home, family bowling atmosphere, check out Flahertys.

Medina Entertainment Center

If you find yourself in Medina, Minnesota for some god forsaken reason, your options for bowling are pretty limited so check out the Medina bowling alley which often hosts a number of great deals for parties and catering. Besides bowling they have a reception area for parties and even weddings, as well as hosting Robert’s Restaurant and Bar and bar and a concert venue. Medina Entertainment Center is obviously more than just bowling; it’s your all-in-one entertainment center for all your Medina fun
