Two kinds of bowling in the Arndale

On the New Cannon Street Mall side of Manchester Arndale, King Pins spreads over a ground floor and a basement, linked by a customer lift, with step-free access to every game and accessible toilets on both levels. The operator calls it its second home in Manchester. Bowlers can choose between full ten-pin lanes and duckpin, played on shorter lanes with feather-light balls.

The rest of the line-up leans towards sport and tech: batting cages with adjustable speeds, a virtual Wild West shooting range, mini golf, bank-shot and tech shuffleboard, tech darts, karaoke booths and an arcade. Both bowling formats cost the same, £9 per adult game off-peak and £11 at standard or peak times, with under-16s paying £6 and £8. Doors open at 11:00 on weekdays, an hour earlier than at King Pins in Bristol or Edinburgh.
