Been here many times now and it's a great little gem. Bar staff are friendly and often very quick. The receptionist is also incredibly helpful. On the pricey side but always good fun.

Bit a little gem in the centre of Bloomsbury! Really good atmosphere with a mix of modern and old school tunes, the alleys have a nice retro feel and the games were really smooth not technical issues. Good price which is per lane not per game with plenty of food and drinks options Would highly recommend!

Pizza, beer selection and vibe of the place are all excellent. Beer selection is particularly good for a venue of this size. Pizza quality is a hidden gem, very pleasantly surprised! Never actually bowled here so cannot comment on that but definitely think it's a fun place to hang out. But prices are quite expensive and the staff do not inform patrons of a discretionary service charge that is applied to everything, even when ordering drinks at the bar. Service is pretty standard too, no complaints. It's more of the principle as I only discovered service was added by asking for receipts. Manager was understanding of the situation and stated staff should be informing patrons of the service charge, hopefully that changes going forward.

Went with the family, we had such a fun time! 🎳 Great music, friendly staff, and awesome atmosphere. Perfect spot for a fun day out in London! 👌

It's is a decent spot for bowling, karaoke, arcade games, or just grabbing a drink. They also have an American-style diner menu, but we didn’t try the food—just had a couple of drinks before bowling. Unfortunately, the drinks are seriously overpriced. The bowling is priced either per hour (good for groups) or per game (better for smaller groups like ours). The overall vibe of the place could be improved, but we still managed to have fun. It’s an okay venue, but with some tweaks to the atmosphere and more reasonable drink prices, it could be a lot better.
