FUN FUN FUN!!!
We were in Boston for a cruise so we were looking for something different to do. We found Sacco’s Candlepin bowling and decided to give it a shot. We stayed downtown Boston so after a $20 & a 20 minute Uber ride we showed up Sacco’s. Walking in was like traveling back in time. This place reminds me of the bowling alley I grew up in 40 years ago. The staff went above and beyond to help us keep score, order food and make us feel like family. Besides the bowling we had the pizza and it was excellent! The entire experience was amazing and I highly recommend for everyone from 2 to 102!

Great Late Night Family Option
Stranded in Boston (flight canceled due to lightning) on a Sunday night, I was struggling to find something family friendly to do. Sacco's to the rescue!! Open Sunday nights till 10:30pm, this was a perfect solution for us to make the most of our unexpected last night in the city. Candlepin bowling is different from your typical bowling, and the small differences are fun for kids. The balls are smaller and lightweight (and they're all the same size/weight), and each player gets three turns per frame. No screens here, you keep score with a good 'ol paper and pencil. The pizza (flatbreads) are good and the atmosphere is fun. The staff was super friendly. 10:30 had come and gone, but they still had one customer left in the restaurant so they let us play the full game instead of kicking us out. Also helpful--it's located easy walking distance from the Davis stop on the Red Line. Highly recommend!!!

Try this if you are from the UK, great fun
Candle pin bowling was a new experience. Perhaps more similar to skittles from Somerset than ten pin bowling. Well, there are 10 pins but the rules are different and it is damn hard to knock all 10 down in 3 rolls! We loved it, our American hosts were better bowlers but that did not matter. A large choice of beers and lagers and excellent flat bread pizza. What a good night! Arrive early to avoid disappointment. I am not sure if you can make reservations. Very close to the T.
