WHERE MILWAUKEE BOWLS

Bowling has been at the heart of Falcon Bowl for over a century. Originally opened in the late 1800s, the alley expanded in 1915 with the addition of its six-lane basement bowling alley, making Falcon Bowl one of the oldest continuously operating bowling alleys in the country. Generations of Milwaukee bowlers have rolled frames here, from casual weeknight games to long-running league traditions.

Today, Falcon Bowl’s lanes are still very much about keeping things approachable and community-focused. Whether you’re here for league night, a few games with friends, or just passing time between beers, the vibe stays relaxed and welcoming. Classic bowling with Riverwest character.
