Had such a lovely time at Pinstripes, enjoying another hard day after getting laid off from my job. My husband had called ahead and asked about open lanes on the Wednesday, since there are only a handful of lanes, Pinstripes mentioned they were booked for the evening. Despite this we went out to eat anyways and enjoyed the restaurant part of the establishment. When we arrived, we asked about bowling again, and it seems that they will take you as a walk in if the reservations aren't fulfilled, so be sure to ask if you're going to dinner here! We were able to get a lane within the hour, and so decided to eat while we waited. Once we sat, service was excellent! We enjoyed Whiskey Wednesday and ordered to whiskeys for $6/piece. We ordered the tuna ahi poke bowl and chicken Parmesan and both were delicious! The pasta on the parm looked and, according to my husband, tasted delicious and fresh! Food came quickly! And after the server learned about my unfortunate turn of personal events, offered desert on the house. While I realize it's not always appropriate to mention these things in public to get freebies, I am incredibly grateful for the care and attention restaurants like this provide when they hear of people's struggles. And even though we lost an income in my household, we still always find a way to tip well when service like this is provided to return the gratitude paid. It's the human thing to do.
After we ate and drank for about an hour, our lane was ready. We finalized the check and headed over, were provided with shoes, and sat to start bowling! A wonderful and up to date experience complete with service in the bowling room! My husband ordered another soda while I rehydrated with water. We were able to squeak in 2.5 games in our reserved hour. When going to finish the check for the soda, the different server was sweet, and yet again said not to worry about it. Again, I can't express my gratitude for service like this. Because of the kindness they showed, I dug out the last $5 in my wallet and tipped him for his kindness.
Thank you pinstripes for making our experience memorial and lessening the pain of losing my job, right after I lost my family pet. We will gladly be back to enjoy dining bowling again!!
