Namco Funscape Romford

24 lanes on the first floor of The Brewery

Upstairs at The Brewery, Namco Funscape Romford has 24 tenpin lanes, and its completed refurbishment added bumper cars and augmented reality darts to the floor. Pool tables, a large video and prize arcade and Gashapon capsule machines fill the rest of the space, with Costa Coffee, burgers and pizza for food.

For children the centre keeps ramps, lighter balls and bumpers, and it suggests bowling from about two years old at the supervising adult's discretion. Shoe hire is included in the game price, and orders can be sent to the lane through a mobile ordering system. Several named offers run here, including a £6 game offer, early-bird and late-night deals, Nifty Fifty for over-50s and free bowling for carers. Doors open at 10:00 daily and close at 23:00, or midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.
