We casually called in recently while waiting for our reservations at the local bowling alley.  The service we received was excellent and the food outstanding (I can strongly recommend the chicken and cashew nuts). There are eating areas both inside the restaurant and outside on the footpath. Admittedly we were there early on a quiet night though I can easily imagine the atmosphere that would be present later in the week. Thai Tasty Kitchen would be a great call for a small intimate dinner or a large group booking on any night of the week.

The lanes at Greenslopes are great as they are located close to the centre of Brisbane and have ample parking.  The staff there are incredibly friendly and couldn’t do enough to help us. Like most bowling alleys there is a snack bar to supply the hungry hordes and provide the odd drink or two. We only paid $16.95 for our two games and shoe hire (that was due to our group rates for 15 or more) and given the smiles on everyones faces at the end of the night it was well worth it! I think there was definately a motion to make sure that we all have a return visit.

AMF Bowling have 45 centres across Australia and offer social bowling, parties and leagues.  It is a great night for a group of friends or families.
