Strike Bowling Bar

Strike Bowling Bar
The Strike Bowling Bar is located on level 3 of the Wintergarden shopping mall, off the Queen Street Mall. Offering a twist on the traditional ten-pin bowling environment, Strike provides 12 bowling lanes which can be divided into three self-contained private bowling lounges for functions and parties. The venue also offers a bar and beverage service, although it does cater for both families and the more adult oriented crowd. Strike Bowling Bar prices start at around $13 a game depending on the day, and they are open every day. Paid parking is available at Kings Parking below the Wintergarden.

Strike Bowling Lanes
Each bowling lane has lane-end video projections, special effects lighting, soft comfortable seating, computerised scoring, with food and beverages able to be served to the lanes. Aside from bowling, Strike also has the latest in interactive entertainment. They have a video and pinball games area, and Pool Lane, which has four pool tables. They also offer theme nights including karaoke, sports viewing, a dance floor and a Skybox private function room.

Strike Bowling Balls
I believe these is the only public bowling lanes within the city. It is a great place to get away, particularly if you like to knock down the pins and can get yourself a strike or a spare. I've been fortunate enough to play, and barely win, on a few occasions. Not that I'm any great bowler, but the atmosphere makes it conducive to get others drunk so it becomes a bit easier! Its all in good fun, and a great way to spend a Friday night.

Cheers, I Love Brisbane, Wes.

That looks like so much fun! My kids love to bowl. They would have a riot there.

Wow. It's been so long since I've been in the city that I didn't even know that was there. Looks cool although we tend to head to Chermside or Aspley or Strathpine for bowling experiences! Lol! We are such 'burb people! ;)

We tend to go out to the bowling centres on the Northside as well! Having Strike in the city just shows how much more influence those that live in the city are having.

I love going to Strike, we go every Wednesday night, you get 2 dice when you walk in and roll them, what you roll is what you pay for your games, they also have the best cocktails to choose from...yummy!!!
