“We love Bowlarama! And it just seems to keep getting better. It's not "only" the lanes now; the laser tag is so much fun, the golf modern and interesting, the range of video games enough, the staff lovely and friendly and my daughter says the nuggets are the best she's ever had (I agree, the food is great for a family event place). Loads of fun for a range of ages (little kids to big kids/adults included). I will definitely be trying the karaoke and jelly ball in the not too distant future.”
