What it is: A 16-lane bowling alley, 600-capacity concert venue, hopping bar scene featuring all-local beers
Why we love it: Whatever’s going on here—from ?uestlove to Q-tip, Citizen Cope to Gaslight Anthem—it always feels like the place to be.
Who to bring: Birthday celebrants. Kids’ bowling birthday parties were never like this.
What to order: Blue Ribbon menu features a gut-busting “Bucket List”: must-eat fried chicken, fun french-bread pizzas and cheesy apps, all washed down with the nutella chocolate shake with a shot of the finest bourbon.
Brooklyn Bowl fun fact:
Brooklyn Bowl is in the 23,000-square-foot former home of Hecla Iron Works factory, built in 1882. It’s the first ever L.E.E.D. certified bowling alley.
