UK Superbowl Newark

Bowling on Castle Gate

Newark-on-Trent's town-centre bowl is listed at 69 Castle Gate. It carries the UK Superbowl name, as a centre in Huddersfield does, yet neither appears among the Superbowl UK chain's venues. Weekday opening is in the afternoon, from 14:00 for most of the week and 13:15 on Friday, and the centre warns that its times may change at short notice.

Daytime bowling on term-time weekdays, up to 18:00, is the cheap option: £6 for an adult game, £11 for two and £15 for three, with juniors paying £5, £9 and £12. Evenings, weekends and holidays move up to £8 and £7 a game. Instead of paying per head, a group of up to six that includes at least one adult and one child can book a Family Hour on a lane, £30 on weekday daytimes or £35 at other times. Birthday parties bundle an hour on the lanes with a meal, juice and a doughnut, for £11 per child on weekdays and £13 at weekends or in the holidays.
