Queens Skate Dine Bowl and Meatliquor have launched Liquor Lanes, a private bowling experience replete with its own bar and bartender and bowling lanes.
I dropped by Queens for the Liquor Lanes launch earlier this week and had a blast. I played a few rounds of bowling, scarfed down a couple of cheeseburgers, and enjoyed a little booze. With a pulsating 80s soundtrack piped through the private lanes area and an equally agreeably retro look and feel to the space, the new private bowling area provided an ideal venue for a night of laidback entertainment with ample elbow room and a splash of VIP treatment.
The Liquor Lanes private area featured an OTT crimson colour scheme with dazzling geometric patterns. Seating was comfy. Accessing the bar was a breeze.
Food was wonderfully lughead with a menu of Meatliquor’s finest: cheeseburgers (£8.25 each), halloumi mushroom burgers (£8 each), ginormous onion rings (£3.50) and plenty more. As for beverage, there was a tasty looking cocktail menu, but I was happy sticking with beer (Estrella Damm Inedit on tap).
The launch party was my first visit to Queens. I really like the old school, lowbrow atmosphere of Queens (lots of neon and nods to Americana design of decades past). Whether booking the Liquor Lanes or not, a full Meatliquor menu is available to patrons.
Service was fast, friendly and attentive throughout the event.
Queens Skate Dine Bowl is located at 17 Queensway, W2 4QP. Find out more at queens.london.
