Sacco's Bowl Haven

Sacco's Bowl Haven is an awesome old school candlepin bowling alley located in Davis Square Somerville. The entryway is decorated with league trophies and local newspaper articles that are decades old. The place has great history but gets busy with leagues so call ahead. If you do have to wait for a lane, there are plenty of pool tables to keep you busy.

One of my favorite places in the world...no frills fun place. Never a line and bowl in a place that has not changed since 1950.

Straight up bowling, no frills. Affordable, NEVER A COVER CHARGE, NEVER A LONG WAIT (almost always no wait at all). Good pool tables, good jukebox, vending machines. Been in the family for years. THE ONLY REAL BOWLING ALLEY IN TOWN!! Old school candlepin alley founded by a great of the game. No contest.
Why would you pay a hefty cover charge and wait for 3 hours to bowl? Sacco's is it.

I've been going to Sacco's since i was 16 and still hang out there at 25. That place rules over all other alleys.

This is where I take out-of-town visitors to introduce them to candlepin bowling. The pool hall has some very good players hanging around, too.

16 beautiful, well-maintained retro candlepin lanes and 8 Brunswick Gold Crown pool tables, and a laid-back welcoming attitude for all types of people and all ages

While I love the atmosphere, the staff sets Sacco's apart - they are uniformly friendly and helpful
