Chasin' Turkeys Bowling Alley, Carleton Place
A late-1950s alley on Bridge Street
Bridge Street in the middle of Carleton Place has had bowling since the late 1950s, and Chasin' Turkeys keeps much of that era's character across its six five-pin lanes. Pinsetters and ball returns are automatic now instead of being worked by hand, but the owners have aimed to hold on to the old feel while adding touches of their own, including a board game lounge.
Parties are a large part of the business. Birthday packages pair 50 minutes on the lanes with 40 minutes in a recently renovated party room, with hot dog or pizza options, and families bring the cake and loot bags. The centre is nut-free and asks that no other outside food come in. Seniors who want a casual league without commitment can ask staff to connect them with a group. Weekdays run to 9 PM, while weekends close earlier.
Booking lanes and parties
The lanes take reservations for groups of many sizes; call to book, or use the party page for birthdays.
Weekday evenings until 9 PM
These are the hours on the centre's own site; Monday opens only at 4 PM.
