Fabulous atmosphere and you'd be mistaken for thinking this is a place to just bowl. The boss Shay has brought together a team of passionate staff who are clearly part of his family. Chris serves a cocktail that's art in a glass and can challenge the palate or nuture it into bed with sensational flavours and exciting recipes. Kid friendly and we always leave with a smile. Check it out. Be Stroud, be proud x

I'm really impressed with how the bowling centre is looking these days. Great facilities for families and teenagers. Even if not bowling there was an arcade area with game machines and pool tables. I noticed several pool/snooker tables covered up whether they are used for club competition I'm not sure. There were quite a few staff members around and the manager appeared to have a really good relationship with his staff. So important when you're going to an entertainment centre to feel the staff enjoying their job. After a hot day at work I'd just called in for a drink and some thing to eat. I couldn't resist the sound of the frozen passion fruit daquari. The manager revealed that they were expanding their cocktail menu and I must admit the Mayan old fashioned will definitely be next on the list to try. The cocktails were fabulous in both their serve and taste. The bar is really beautifully done with a good selection of drinks on offer. Food was American diner style tho I did see a pasta dish on the menu. I had the Stroud bowl burger with fries which again was great in presentation and flavour. Everywhere looked very clean and it appeared a comfortable and safe place for young and old to hang out. Would strongly recommend visiting. Though probably best to book if you wish to bowl. As I left just before 7pm and pretty much all the lanes were in use.

Really enjoyable outing with a few hiccups. The bowling lanes were in good shape, creating a fun vibe for our group. Staff were friendly and mostly attentive, though service slowed at times. Food was tasty but could use more variety. The arcade added extra entertainment. Overall, a solid spot for a fun night out, just shy of perfect.
