What a turnaround from the old and tired previous Burnley bowl. Excellent music, lighting is fun and energetic. The bowling alleys have been upgraded, as has the comfortable seating and the tables are rustic and solid on lane. Now the balls are stored under the table too. The food was amazing, pizza’s were thin, crispy with fresh ingredients, all the food we saw coming out was an improvement. The new bar/recep on entrance was much smarter, better stocked with over drinks and actually had staff working on them. The arcade games had working lights and the machines seem new. 2 pool tables available now. Also they have a cool KARAOKE PRIVATE room to hire. All in it is a much better offering. It was £40 for our family of 2 adults & 2 kids to play a game of bowling and a round of golf.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 10 and up who want a full entertainment venue — bowling, mini golf, and arcade in one visit. The renovation has genuinely improved the food, lighting, and atmosphere. Families with very young children should check renovation progress before booking, as some exposed areas remain unfinished.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 9.5/10 We had such a great time bowling! 🎳 We played three games and everything went really smoothly. The staff were amazing – really friendly and quick to help, whether it was fixing a ball that got stuck or sorting out a small glitch in the system. The venue looks fantastic since the redecoration, even though parts are still being worked on. It already feels fresh and welcoming, and we had a fabulous time from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back!

We brought 3 teenagers for the golf and bowling combo. We had a good time, but the revamp is not quite there yet. The new bar, golf and new seating on the bowling alley look great, but there was a huge part of the ceiling missing with wires hanging down, the arcade games need upgrading (the air hockey doesn’t count the score for one player!) and the actual bowling alleys have seen better days. It does feel a bit like a construction site with rolls of carpet and sheets of MDF piled up. That said, we still had a nice time, and the cost was ok (£54 for the 5 of us).

Price was great did the combo but unfortunately looks like a construction site on enter. Staff were friendly and helpful. The table service was quick and easy to use. The golf was ok but alot of holes i found too much and would of been alot hard for younger one.
