Know before you go. Chipper's doesn't list sensory hours or a quiet room. Here's what it does say about lanes, bumpers and the rest of the building.

Hours

Monday to Wednesday 11 am to 11 pm; Thursday and Friday 11 am to midnight; Saturday 9 am to midnight; Sunday 9 am to 11 pm.

217 West Horsetooth Road, Fort Collins 80525

What to expect

  • Access

    “Lane bumpers, ball ramps, and lightweight balls are available to enhance the bowling experience for children and adaptive bowlers.”

  • Waits

    “Book a bowling lane in advance, or just drop in. Call ahead if you'd like to make sure a drop-in lane is available.”

  • Access

    “We provide bowling shoe rentals from toddler youth size 8, up to men's size 16.”

  • Light

    The arcade has “more than 45 of the best arcade games,” from Skee-Ball and pinball to claw machines and racing games, and the building has “sports-bar-style TV screens.”

  • Rules

    Laser tag players “must be at least 42” tall and comfortable wearing the vest and carrying the laser tag phaser,” and watch a safety video first. Rounds aren't private unless you pay for that.

  • Lane bookings come in 1.5, 2 or 3 hours. A shorter booking gives a clear end point.
  • Each lane fits up to 6 bowlers, so a family usually has the lane to itself.
