Kingpins Bowl

Interactive lanes on Lucy Road

Kingpins on Lucy Road runs ten lanes of interactive tenpin, which the operator describes as among the first in the UK, alongside separate duckpin lanes. For a special occasion, The Royal Enclosure sets interactive lanes beside booth seating, with buckets of beer or prosecco on ice. The site also has augmented reality darts, air hockey, an arcade, a karaoke booth and a new terrace for food and drinks.

An adult game costs £8.75 and two cost £12.00; juniors pay £7.75 and £10.75, and students or seniors £7.95 and £11.25. Weekdays open at 10:00 and close at 23:00; Friday and Saturday run until 01:00, and weekend doors open at 09:00. A temporary kitchen serves mains, sides and children's favourites, and the Scoops 37 counter does sundaes and cookie dough. Kingpins also runs a 12-lane sister site in Chelmsford.
