Hollywood Bowl Bolton
Lanes and darts on The Linkway
Look for Horwich rather than central Bolton: the centre is at 25-27 The Linkway, on a leisure and retail park with other restaurants and attractions. Inside are 26 lanes, a separate VIP section and interactive darts boards that are booked separately from the bowling, a digital take on the pub game that keeps the score automatically.
Big sporting events are shown across several HD screens in the bar, so the centre doubles as a place to watch a match. Pool tables and arcade games are close to the lanes. Friday is the odd one out in the timetable: the doors close at 23:30 that night, half an hour before Saturday's midnight finish, while weekdays begin at 10:00.
