Opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1939 by the Hebert family. King Lanes has seen many changes over the last 60 years. Back in the early years you could hop on the trolley car and get off right in front of the lanes. Once inside pinboys would set your pins instead of automatic pinsetters. In 1954 the lanes were purchased by the LaRochelle family and automatic pinsetters were installed, quite a marvel in its time. Over the years our center has undergone many facelifts with pool tables added in the early 60's, automatic scoring in 1989, and no smoking in 1997. Now in our third generation our family looks forward to serving your family for years to come.
