All Star Lanes reviews
What a great night out. Such fun to finally find somewhere with a little more edge and character than your usual bar/club. Classy place and fab atmosphere. I defy anyone not to adore the milkshake - it's heaven.
by natalial, 07 May 2008This place is such good fun. Food was great, really buzzy atmosphere and the staff were friendly and chatty. Definitely recommend it!
by Lucy Boulding, 05 Feb 2008I went last week with a friend and we both absolutely loved it. Great cocktails, good food and the bowling itself was so much fun. We stayed until 1.00 in the morning!
by EJAD, 01 Feb 2008Had such a great evening here with my friend. Staff were great, as were food and drinks. A definite must-do. Also spotted a few celebs hanging out!
by icklekim, 01 Feb 2008I love this place - great food and drink and, although it can get very busy, the staff are a lot of fun.
by BigEL, 31 Jan 2008Beware: do not book a lane here. They claim to be open till 2am. They closed the bar and lanes at midnight, throwing us out, despite our having booked days in advance. They charged us £36 for half an hour's bowling, despite claiming they were open tilll 2am! Staff have a bad attitude and this is not a good place to hang out.
by anneanne, 05 Sep 2007More cheesy than chic (it reminds me of the kind of place Girls Aloud might like). Good concept but mediocre food, terrible acoustics, and too expensive for what it is.
by missfine "top london reviewer" (25 reviews), 18 Jun 2007Had a wonderful evening here. People and surroundings were oh so cool, bowling was awesome, food was delicious and drinks were fab. Worth a visit, without doubt.
by uncle gary, 01 Mar 2007Admittedly I went during Christmas party season, but was not impressed. It just felt like they were trying to get you in and out as quickly as possible. And the cocktails were very poorly made. It certainly wasn't the 'premium' experience they are trying to sell. Will have to go back to give it a second chance.
by Wagonface (4 reviews), 15 Dec 2006Had an absolutely shocking experience at this place. Inexperienced waitress incorrectly brought a £75 bottle of wine rather than an £18 one after she looked at the wrong page! Manager was exceptionally rude when error discovered 3 bottles later, and absolutely no effort was made to remedy the situation or reach a satisfactory compromise. Be warned!! Shame, as it totally ruined an otherwise fun day.
by Angel 12, 11 Dec 2006Lovely, friendly atmosphere, lots of cheerful faces, everybody having fun. Food is really good - had a burger to die for. GBK, Tootsies, you are nowhere near.
by Big Mac, 15 Nov 2006All Star Lanes is the best night out I have had in London in a long time. They achieved everything to such a high standard - good food, fab cocktails and friendly staff, with bowling on the side... What more could one want?
by bowling enthusiast, 15 Nov 2006Brilliant night out - loved the bowling, delicious food, fantastic cocktails and great service. I'll be back.
by Queen Pin, 15 Nov 2006All Star Lanes is the coolest place. Me and a couple of mates went for a few drinks and a bit of bowling. Finally a bowling alley where you can stay for some food and drinks after your game or, more to the point, where you actually want to stay after a game. The staff definitely add to this - all really friendly, which makes a nice change. Would recommend a visit.
by Craig Watts, 12 Oct 2006All Star Lanes is fabulous. A trendy bowling alley with real food - who would ever have thought it? Staff were lovely also. All in all, a great idea - just what was needed in London.
by roxanne aisthorpe, 07 Aug 2006Amazing. Loved it and will definitely be returning as soon as possible. The food was great, cocktails even better, just what London is in need of-something a little bit different to your typical guest list bars. I really couldn't recommend it highly enough.
by samantha hayley C, 19 Jul 2006Took clients there. Great cocktails and lovely bar area. Food did not disappoint although the service was slightly poor. Despite having booked our lanes, we had to wait nearly an hour for the previous bowlers to finish, so the bar closed about halfway through our games. Still, the setting is brilliant, very retro and cool. I'd suggest improving the service and the place will go from good to great!
by Anonymous, 10 May 2006Amazing fun time. I can't wait to go back. Only problem is there aren't many bowling lanes so it could take forever to get a chance to play. Best to book a lane ahead of time.
by Bachrach "top london reviewer" (19 reviews), 04 May 2006Fun alternative. Nice bar, great shakes - worth a go if you fancy just a break from routine.
by Anonymous, 11 Apr 2006So great. Amazing cocktails and sitting in the bar makes you feel like you're in a Tarantino film (minus all the violence obviously).
The only thing that put a little dampener on the evening was the one ridiculously arrogant bar man, but that's more amusing than annoying so I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
Have we missed a great bar in London? Let us know.
