Really love this place! It has bowling, a karaoke room, ace bands and dj's, cheap drinks and the staff are really friendly too!
This is a great place to know in Bristol. I went there first for a work do, but it’s actually much later that the place comes into its own. It’s open until 3am and is much more than a bowling alley. It’s 1950s style decor is really unusual and later on it turns into a real party place, with people dressed up, live bands and great music to dance to. Best of all on a saturday night it only cost £3 to get in, which is fantastic for central Bristol! The people who frequent there are really friendly too.
I came here with a group of people I go to school with and we had a great time. The atmosphere is really great and it was small enough that it wasn’t too loud to socialize. They serve food if you get hungry-we had some nachos that were quite tasty-and it is a really nice way to spend an evening. I recommend this bowling alley for any trendy, hipster types as it is of that persuasion. Really great, fun, good meeting place. There is a bar, a restaurant, the bowling alley and it appeared that there was some sort of theater with a screen upstairs though I’m not sure what that is about. Located on Nelson Street and a little hard to find-though worth the search!
The sister venue of bloomsbury bowling lanes in London, the lanes offers a thoroughly refreshing 'going out' experience, combining 50s style dining, live music from touring acts and locals alike
(I personally saw an amazing electro-pop act called ou est le swimming pool) and ten pin bowling, which is possibly the most fun anyone can have after you've had a few of their tasty continental lagers!
