Uncle Buck’s Fish Bowl & Grill

We were curious to try the alligator appetizer, it was good nothing special. The seasoning on them was too empowering over the tender alligator meat. Their French fries are so salty they were unbearable to eat! My husband ordered a margarita and it was mostly mixer which made it thick and sour, he couldn’t stand drinking it. Since the food was so gross we didn’t bother finishing it, when we told our waitress wile didn’t need to go boxes she seemed upset the rest of the time which I thought was silly. Never coming back here.

Bowling was fun, but service and food were worst in a LONG time. Burger was a briquet when I ordered medium. Have fun and bowl. Eat somewhere else.

First visit, ordered take out. Fish and chips with extra tartar sauce. Order was ready when I arrived. For $ 15 I got 2 luke warm pieces of fish (which might have actually been good if warmer), a handful of lukewarm fries and some runny white sauce that I guess was supposed to be tartar sauce.
Won’t be back.

Buffalo chicken wings — 3 (Drum and Leg) for $ 9? too much. Didn’t hear anyone in our group of 20 say they liked their food. On the plus side there was hardly anyone there. I can’t see them staying in business long.

Marc the bar tender takes pretty dang good care of you! Tournament burger was good quality and priced right. It is noisy due to the bowling going on around you but hey order a beer, a burger and bowl a little!

Second time. Won’t go back. Nice place with potential but poor management. Soggy fries, small portions, inattentive staff.

We had a good time here and enjoyed the food. Our family had a variety of dishes and all were good for the type of food they cater to. It’s not intended to be fine dining, but good for what they do. We didn’t try the bowling this time, but really want to come back and check it out. The place has a nice atmosphere.

Came here for a team lunch with coworkers. The service was attentive. Everyone had iced tea and no one went dry.
We had alligator appetizers that were okay, not great. I had the half rack of ribs with garlic fries which was a great value at $ 8. The garlic fries were bland with little to no garlic. The ribs were a little on the salty side but it was a large portion, they were meaty and fall of the bone tender.
I was surprised to see the uniquely decorated bowling alley, it looked like a great place for future get togethers — maybe after work for beer and bowling.
I think the food was great, considering that this is a bowling alley and not a fine dining establishment.

Was good when they opened. Waited almost an hour for our order. All of the kids food was overcooked. The chicken was dry. The shrimp was burned. The waitress forgot to bring my tea, and didn’t check up on us til the food came out. Also, I had signed the kids up for the birthday club and realized we never received the coupon back for two of my kids. Very disappointed. I would expect better than what we got, I don’t plan to come back.

Would not recommend this place for AYCE fish and chips. $ 14 for two small fish and a handful of fries. It took twenty minutes to get drinks, over a half hour to get our lunch order, and then another twenty minutes to get the second order of fish. Also, we did not care for the twenty-​something waitress calling us «honey» and «dear.»

Bowling was super fun with the kids-​very nicely decorated although pricey. $ 25/​lane per hour with $ 3.00 shoe rental per person. We ordered food and it was way over priced for the quality-​we will go back to bowl but not to eat.

Not sure where the good service was when we went!
It took 20 minutes just to get acknowledged after we sat down.
We even asked another server to find our server but still no one showed up.
After going through an exhaustive list of things they didn’t have, we finally got our drinks. Had to wait another 5 minutes to get straws though.
The wings were red, bloody, and WAY undercooked. Absolutely nasty and slimy. The cheese sticks were still cold in the middle.
This is the third time we have been. First time was fine, but the last two times were terrible. Don’t waste your time or money.

This place is getting much better, service is good, food is much better. I ate there 3 more times since and each burger I had was cooked very well. My wife didn’t complain other than timing so that’s a plus. On that note timing is an small issue… but you get hot food. I think they are getting the kinks worked out

Fast friendly service. 4 adults and 7 kids under 8 years old. Seated in 5 minutes. Food in less than 30. Everything was great and everyone was happy. Adults got fish and chips, onion rings, turkey wrap. Courtney was a great waitress. Would definitely return and recommend this place to anyone.

I disagree with the burgers being small. Had a firepit burger and it was the best burger i have had in colorado. The bartender we had would make a better manager instead of bartender. Dont expect any interaction from any staff. Raise your hand if you want something and scream over the bowlers dropping bombs at the floor that are obviously heavier than they can handle
Great food. Horrendous service. The décor is fantastic. In bringing teens next time!
Oyr tab was 100.00 for 3 men with 1 appetizer and beers

Tried the clam chowder… was served cold and tasted like it was missing an ingredient. Won’t go back there.

I decided to treat my mother-​in-​law to a fun dinner. After touring Bass Pro Shop, we headed for Uncle Bucks.
This was my third trip to this restaurant, and it may be my last. With such a cool menu, they really have a lot of potential, but when they can’t even get a simple chili covered burger right, you know there are even bigger problems in the kitchen.
The place was dead, there may have been two other tables. I ordered a burger with chili and cheese on it. When asked how I wanted it cooked, I asked for medium rare. After about 20 minutes later, dinner was served.
I’m not sure how they pulled this off, but the burger was well done, the chili was cold, and the cheese was only partially melted. The waiter came to do the quality check about ten minutes after dropping the food off, and after my burger was remade, we had been there 30 or more minutes. My wife and mother-​in-​law were underwhelmed by their food as well.
This was my third visit which confirmed that the food is terrible, the service is mediocre, but the environment is cool.

When I think of bowling I think of grimy places I bowled when I was a kid. You know those Big Libowski type joints. Uncle Buck’s is nothing like those places. It is a pretty cool place. They have a full menu at the lanes, and the prices are excellent. The food is just ok. (Looking forward to trying the pizza, it looked really good).
The group I was with ordered the Chicken Nachos. They had really strange toppings that are all wrong for nachos, like Kalamata Olives and BBQ sauce.
When our check came my 16oz beer was $ 4.75 and my friend’s 23oz beers were $ 4.00. I asked our server why this was and she told me that their beers were on sale. WTH?! I would have liked a bigger beer for cheaper. But she never mentioned there being any drink specials…

We were here for bowling and apps. Overall, service was solid both at the bar and the lanes. We had a variety of apps. They were ok. highlight was probably the bbq nachos. Cheese sticks were standard industrial fare and the queso was like water. tasted ok, just very diluted.
would go back as a group, but wouldn’t be my first choice for dinner.

Horrible service horrible drinks. This our 3^rd time trying here and it got worse each time. Food was decent nothing special. Small burgers. If your a guy who likes a big Burger you should pass. Our scond time we ended up just leaving after sitting at our table for 30 min and not being waited on. The bartenders are not trained well at all and have little knowledge. Liquor in the drinks is non existant. I was DD for those wondering. We asked the girl if there was anything else with some kick and she gave us this BS line that Colorado law regulated how much liquor was in the drinks. She made a different drink that was horrible and undrinkable. This place has alot of kinks to work out. Management never approached us anytime even after we made it clear we were not happy both times. Very sad because its a nice place. We won’t be going back for a while.
