We came here on Friday for our daughter's birthday. We did the after school deal which includes one game of bowling and a meal for the children. My daughter chose the hot dog and my son the nuggets which they both enjoyed. I have coeliac disease so it was refreshingly welcome to see that there was gluten free items on the menu. I'm so used to missing out it was a much welcome change and I really appreciate that. After our game and food we then had a play in the arcades. Thank you for giving my daughter a good birthday.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 9.5/10 We had such a great time bowling! 🎳 We played three games and everything went really smoothly. The staff were amazing – really friendly and quick to help, whether it was fixing a ball that got stuck or sorting out a small glitch in the system. The venue looks fantastic since the redecoration, even though parts are still being worked on. It already feels fresh and welcoming, and we had a fabulous time from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back!
What a turnaround from the old and tired previous Burnley bowl. Excellent music, lighting is fun and energetic. The bowling alleys have been upgraded, as has the comfortable seating and the tables are rustic and solid on lane. Now the balls are stored under the table too. The food was amazing, pizza’s were thin, crispy with fresh ingredients, all the food we saw coming out was an improvement. The new bar/recep on entrance was much smarter, better stocked with over drinks and actually had staff working on them. The arcade games had working lights and the machines seem new. 2 pool tables available now. Also they have a cool KARAOKE PRIVATE room to hire. All in it is a much better offering. It was £40 for our family of 2 adults & 2 kids to play a game of bowling and a round of golf.
Visited Discoball Burnley with my auntie and my 11 year-old cousin first weekend of December. I can see why people enjoy the renovation, the neon lighting looks great and the concept itself is fun. That said, there were some things that really took away from the experience for us. The main concern was health and safety. There was visible scaffolding and wooden planks in areas open to customers and the arcade had electrical wires hanging from the hole in the ceiling, which didn’t feel appropriate in the venue, especially with children around. The food was fine but nothing special and our drinks were flat. The bowling equipment also felt quite dated. The ball return machines are from the older AMF era so must be at least 25 years old. We were rushed off the alley by the next customers within a minute of our game ending and we hadn’t quite finished our food and drinks which was a bit strange. It felt like the venue may have opened before everything was fully finished and ready for the public. I’ve taken photos of some of the unfinished areas, as hopefully this is something that can be improved quickly. With a few changes, particularly around safety, this could be a really good spot, but at the moment it didn’t quite live up to expectations for the price we paid (£55 between three people with one game, one drink and a bit of food to share).
We brought 3 teenagers for the golf and bowling combo. We had a good time, but the revamp is not quite there yet. The new bar, golf and new seating on the bowling alley look great, but there was a huge part of the ceiling missing with wires hanging down, the arcade games need upgrading (the air hockey doesn’t count the score for one player!) and the actual bowling alleys have seen better days. It does feel a bit like a construction site with rolls of carpet and sheets of MDF piled up. That said, we still had a nice time, and the cost was ok (£54 for the 5 of us).
