When families think of a Walt Disney World vacation, they typically think characters, theme parks, and rides. But a hidden gem located inside the gates of Walt Disney World Resort is Disney Springs - a shopping, dining, and entertainment mecca for families to enjoy outside of the parks. Recently, we had the chance to visit Splitsville Luxury Lanes located on the West Side of Disney Springs. Between the great food, fun atmosphere, and relaxed vibe, it was the perfect place to kick off our vacation!
Thank you to Splitsville Luxury Lanes in Disney Springs for hosting our family!

We had an early flight out of Baltimore on our arrival day to Orlando and knew that we didn't want to head to the parks on our first day after being up at 4AM. Splitsville Luxury Lanes turned out to be a great choice to grab a bite to eat and have some fun in a much more "low key" atmosphere than heading to a park. We arrived around 11:30 and, despite having a later reservation at 12:30, they were able to accommodate us! From the outside it's easy to see that Splitsville is a huge location. Upon entering, guests can choose between bowling and eating or just dining. There are lanes both downstairs and up to easily accommodate A LOT of bowlers. . .and there's also some pool tables to enjoy as well. If you're bowling, you get a lane for a set period of time depending on the size of your party. Each lane also has a table and wait staff to bring food and drinks.
- 1 - 2 People - 1 Hour
- 3 - 4 People - 1 Hour 15 Min.
- 5 - 6 People - 1 Hour 30 Min.
- 7 - 8 People - 1 Hour 45 Min.
Bowling pricing includes unlimited bowling during your lane time and shoe rental. Current pricing as of March 2022 is $20 per person before 4PM on weekdays and $24 per person after 4PM and all day on Saturdays and Sundays.

The bowling lanes are well maintained and have a retro feel to them. At this Disney Springs location, you even get a little "Disney magic" with some bowling balls featuring Mickey and Minnie! While all the bowling at this location is ten pin with larger bowling balls, they do have options to help little ones in your family. Bowling balls are available as light as 6 lbs. and you can see easily printed on the ball hand sizes XS - XL that will help size the ball appropriately. We ended up also making use of bumpers for our 7 and 10 year old and they had a ramp if you have someone young enough in your party that can't yet manage rolling the bowling ball on their own. Everything is computerized in the bowling alley - including the bumpers - which automatically popped up and down when it was my kids turn to bowl (although I probably needed them just as much!). The bowling screen also has a countdown of how much time is left on your reservation so it's easy to see and keep track of while enjoying your visit.
The food and drink at Splitsville Luxury Lanes in Disney Springs is also a big draw - and not just your typical bowling alley food. We kicked off our visit with a round of drinks from the bar and a cone of fries. The chive dip was every bit as good as our server promised! For our main courses, my kids chose of the children's menu and had the pizza and chicken tenders. My husband had the Southern Goddess Salad which he said was the delicious. As a vegetarian, there were several options on the menu including pizzas and salads, but I chose to go the the veggie sushi roll. All of the ingredients were fresh and it was nice to visit the a bowling alley and have some healthier options to choose from! This trip to Disney was during my birthday week and Splitsville helped me celebrate with some birthday ice cream as an extra special treat.

I was worried that we may feel rushed to eat and bowl during our reservation time, but the timing was perfect. With kids, it was great to have them engaged in something active and fun while we were waiting for our food to arrive and after we finished eating. Our server was wonderful and we truly loved our visit! Splitsville Luxury Lanes is a great choice on a day off from the parks, family dinner at Disney Springs, or a fun adult night out. For all of my runDisney friends, you can also find Splitsville often participating in the runDisney discounts at Disney Springs during race weekends - check them out!
We'll definitely be back to Splitsville in the future and with so many options of fun things to do in Disney Springs, it's becoming more and more of a must-do for us on every Walt Disney World vacation!
