Hollywood Bowl

When I am with my little sisters and around my Dad’s proximity, this is the obvious choice for a weekend activity. Cinemas, arcades and bowling compromise this area. The usual Frankies and Bennies accompanies the Hollywood Bowl venue.
We went bowling and I felt it was pricey, but with my two year old sister it assured she was occupied with many flashing lights from the arcades and the disco bowling.
The alleys were dark and the music was loud, so although many of the alleys were used by families it comes across as a young teenagers venue.

Really good Bowling. Do have to say, be careful of the food, its not the best on the planet

Hollywood bowl is a really good place to go if your looking for a good time out with your family or friends
They have a bar, lots of arcade games and even a little restaurant.
The staff are very helpful

Decent bowling alley with a good atmosphere about the place. Finding a good ball can be a problem at busy times but its never an issue. Bar is a little expensive but not massively so. Not a bad evening out overall!

i have used this bowling alley both for private use and taken school groups there. the staff are very helpful and fix any lane problems very quickly. the computers allow you to key in your own data and change the bumpers for each player which is brill. they have a café on site although the food is very expensive and i have had to complain about the quality before however they apologised, fixed the problem and gave us a free game of bowing each. There are a wide range of machines and arcade rides there so take extra money as the kids wont leave until theyve used the dance mat! there is a frankie and bennys and chiquitos outside and lots of parking spaces however park as close as possible as there has been quite a few break ins in the dark areas of the car park.

Family friendly if you like this kind of atmosphere. Although my children and I have spent enjoyable outings with lots of quality time together here, personally I’m not keen on the artificial lights and ‘amusements-​style noise of these kinds of places. Good parking, quite pricey (but usual for bowling) and this one is the best I’ve visited in the Midlands so far.

situated about a half an hours drive from Birmingham city center, This place is a good one for family outings or for a group of friends. There are a good number of vending machines, gaming machines and not to mention restuarants. It also has ample and secure parking space. On the down side, it tends to get busy especially in the evenings and on weekends, and its also quite expensive.

I’ve been here a few times, usually with a group of friends or family, it’s a very family friendly place, with not only the bowling but also there’s an arcade which has games for all ages. You can eat there, typical burger and chips meals but good all the same and there’s a bar if you fancy a tipple. For a fun night out it’s got everything you need and the prices aren’t too bad either, try it, you might like it!
