1 / 3Bloomsbury Lanes
📍 London, Greater London
Bloomsbury's retro bowling venue combines lane bowling with live DJ sets, karaoke booths, darts, and a well-regarded pizza and drinks menu. Per-lane pricing suits groups and special occasion visits.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with teenagers or older children celebrating a birthday or special occasion where the atmosphere and entertainment are as important as the bowling itself. The live DJ, karaoke, and darts make this distinctly different from a standard bowling venue. Evening visits when the DJ is active give the best experience.

“Bit a little gem in the centre of Bloomsbury! Really good atmosphere with a mix of modern and old school tunes, the alleys have a nice retro feel and the games were really smooth not technical issues. Good price which is per lane not per game with plenty of food and drinks options Would highly recommend!”

“Great place for bowling and late night drinks + some games like darts or karaoke. £20 for 2 for a game of bowling or rent the lane for an hour for £65 a bit expensive but with a live dj good fun.”

“Been here many times now and it's a great little gem. Bar staff are friendly and often very quick. The receptionist is also incredibly helpful. On the pricey side but always good fun.”
💬 What parents mention
Overview
Bloomsbury Lanes is a basement venue combining retro bowling lanes with live DJ music, karaoke booths, and darts. Lane rental runs per hour rather than per game. Pizza is a reviewers' favourite, and the beer selection is broad for a venue of this size. The atmosphere builds into the evening when the DJ is in full swing. Party facilities and group bookings are available.
