My advice is to try the themed bowling nights. They had such a cool vibe and it made the experience way more enjoyable compared to regular bowling!

I recommend booking a lane in advance, especially on weekends, to avoid the long wait times. Trust me, it was super frustrating when we had to wait over an hour

I suggest wearing comfy shoes; you’ll be moving around a lot, and trust me, no one wants sore feet when they're trying to have fun!

I suggest getting there around 5 PM if you want to snag a good parking spot. Traffic can be a mess before events, so arriving early makes it easier to settle in.

Don't forget to check out their food menu. I think their nachos were a perfect snack while bowling. They have some great deals if you buy combo packages.

I recommend booking your lanes online, especially on weekends, as it gets super busy. I waited half an hour just to get a lane!

Try to go right when they open at 10 AM if you can. The crowds are way lighter, and you can play a few games without the rush.
Ellice Road Social Lounge

Bring a few mates if you want to avoid the queue for the pool tables. I went solo, and had to wait a while during peak times. Sharing the fun is way better anyway!

If you're feeling peckish, try the nachos! They’re a hit among visitors and perfect for sharing. I thought they were a bit pricey, but hey, they hit the spot!

Don't forget sunscreen and a hat if you're going during the day. The sun can be intense, and you'd want to be comfortable while having fun.
