It's a Holywood bowl, what can I say!? It's got a great size car park and while busy, it's never too bad for getting a bowling lane. The arcades are great, if a little on pricey side, £2 for many of the machines. However, the pool tables are kept very well and the hungry hippos ride is hysterical to watch. Prices a bit pricey for Coatbridge but decent place to go several times a year.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with competitive older children who want an active bowling session with arcade games on the side. The motorway access makes it a practical choice for families driving in from across Central Scotland. Costs add up fast — arcade machines run at premium pricing. Friday afternoons and weekends can see significant waits.

Always a great experience at Hollywood bowl. Easy access just off the A8. Not far from M73 and M8 motorways. Family day always becomes SO competitive 😂 Dad is a natural born winner 💪🏼 the others just try to keep up with my lead, haha 😂 Food, drinks and plenty of arcade games to play afterwards.

Had a good time there with my daughter. For me, it was all a bit garish, but it's fine for an occasional bit of fun. Service was friendly, although we did ring the bell once for an order to be taken and no-one turned up.
