There is a carpet mural of bowling stuff on the wall... enough said. Oh and they have bubble hockey and pool.

So much fun to read the stories of old bowling legends in the front entryway. Awesome. It's like the hall of fame of candlepin.

Ok so maybe its not as much about the bowling as it is about the live music, awesome food and great drinks while you bowl. Great bands come here and its an eclectic mix of people. This is probably my most favorite place, EVER.

No frills or gimmicks, just balls and pins. Old school bowling at its best.

Unfortunately, the Globe just published a story about Milky Way moving. The landlord doubled their rent and now they are forced to move. At least the place is surviving, but sadly the bowling lanes aren't moving to the new space.

Looks like Sacco may not be there much longer: http://somervillenews.typepad.com/the_somerville_news/2008/01/lanes-full-of-m.html

by far the best place for bowling, in my opinion that is.

It's not really near anything, and kind of a hipster scene, but its the only bar/live music venue/bowling alley I've ever been to.
