This fun bowling alley and restaurant is a great place for a gang of you to spend a memorable night out trying to out-do each other. The atmosphere is really buzzing on Friday and Saturday nights with resident guest DJs mixing the tunes and upping the tempo from 9pm through til 2am. As you'd expect at such an all-American entertainment, there's a diner serving burgers and beers. It's all conveniently and centrally located on Bloomsbury Place, just off Bloomsbury Square, where Great Russell Street meets Southampton Row. Booking a lane is recommended but not essential and when booking you can have up to six people (estimate time: 10 mins per person per game) or opt for a table in the diner. Bowling is no longer a sport to be embarrassed about - popular demand has led to two new All Star Lanes opening in 2007/8; the first is located in the basement of Whiteleys shopping centre at Porchester Gardens, Bayswater, and the second in Brick Lane opened early 2008.
