Bowling’s Crown Jewel of the Midwest

For generations, Tropicana Lanes has been part of St. Louis bowling history — a place where families gather, friends compete, leagues grow, and great memories are made.

A St. Louis Bowling Tradition Since 1960

The name Tropicana Lanes brings back the golden age of bowling in St. Louis.

Since opening in 1960, Tropicana has grown into the largest bowling center in Missouri, with 52 lanes that have hosted everything from casual family outings to professional tournaments, college championships, league nights, birthday parties, and community events.

Since the 1960’s, the Trop has been a place where people can leave their worries at the door, lace up their bowling shoes, and enjoy the moment.

Bright, Welcoming, and Always Ready to Roll

Tropicana Lanes is proud to be a place for all ages.

Families come here for birthdays and weekend fun. Friends come here for food, drinks, and cosmic bowling. League bowlers come here for competition and community. Companies and groups come here for events that feel easy, lively, and memorable.

With bumpers, assist ramps, party spaces, arcade games, billiards, darts, food, drinks, and plenty of seating, there’s something here for everyone.

A City That Loves to Bowl

St. Louis has always been a bowling town, and Tropicana Lanes is proud to be part of that tradition.

From the city’s legendary bowling history to its love of Cardinals baseball, Blues hockey, toasted ravioli, local beer, and St. Louis-style pizza, the Trop reflects the energy and friendliness that make this city special.

We’re proud to be a local destination where generations of bowlers, families, and friends continue to make memories.
