Go bowling in Bristol from Saturday 15 August
Posted on: 14 Aug 2020Let the good times roll at local venues like The Lanes.
Bowling alleys across the country can reopen on Saturday (15 August), thanks to a further easing of lockdown measures.
And in Bristol, we’ve struck lucky: local lanes will be reopening without delay. But expect things to look a bit different on your next visit.
No matter where you decide to play in the city, you’ll probably have to pre-book your game, limit the number of people you bowl with and wear your own shoes.
Here’s a list of bowling alleys in Bristol and what you need to know ahead of their reopening.
The Lanes
Bristol’s boutique bowling alley, The Lanes, is ready to welcome back bowlers tomorrow, on Saturday 15 August.
Head over to The Lanes website now to make that all-important advance booking.
Can’t wait until then? Head on down to enjoy a pizza and a pint in The Lanes’ glorious courtyard – the venue reopened a few weeks ago as a bar and pizzeria.
Even better, some socially-distanced gigs are arriving at The Lanes over the coming weeks.
Gig goers will be seated at tables where they can order pizzas, cocktails, craft beer and more straight to their table. Take a look what's coming up over on The Lanes Facebook page.
Tenpin
Tenpin is reopening on Saturday 15 August from 10:00.
To give bowlers a better idea of what to expect at the alley, Tenpin has released some information on its website about its new, in-house safety measures.
At Tenpin, bowlers will be asked to wear their own shoes, order food and drink from a brand-new app and play in teams of no more than six per lane.
Find Tenpin inside the Avonmeads Retail Park, located in BS2.

Hollywood Bowl has two locations in Bristol: one at Cribbs Causeway, and one in Longwell Green. Both venues will reopen on Saturday 15 August.
Like Tenpin, Hollywood Bowl has released lots of information about its new, in-house safety measures.
They’ll reduce venue capacity and allow a maximum of six to bowl together. Visit the Hollywood Bowl website to find out more.
