Strike!
It’s one of Teesside’s favourite leisure complexes - and now it’s had a major revamp.
The Gazette can give you an exclusive first look at the newly refurbished Hollywood Bowl at Teesside Leisure Park.
Paul Varley, general manager of Hollywood Bowl, said: “The centre looks fantastic and we can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve done here and experience it for themselves.”
Following a half a million pound overhaul, the 26 lane Hollywood Bowl now boasts a state-of-the-art booking system that allows guests to invite Facebook friends as well as brand new scoring software that posts strikes to Facebook and emails you the score afterwards.
There has been a complete redesign of the seating around the lanes as well as booths you can book and a new cocktail bar.
For those wanting to hire a private area Hollywood Bowl now has a VIP area that can be used exclusively for all events from children’s parties and teenage groups through to adult nights out and corporate functions.
In addition the venue is home to Harry’s Kitchen – an American style restaurant serving freshly made dishes and burgers. If visitors aren’t bowling they can still go along for a cocktail or a bite to eat.
Bowling’s not the only activity on offer.
Guests can make the most of the centre’s new amusement area too - including air hockey, pool tables and the latest games machines.
There is an opportunity to play for prizes where guests can collect tokens won on arcade games and exchange them for goodies, from sweets to remote controlled toys.
Hollywood Bowl has been a fixture in the social lives of Teessiders since the early 90s - at points including a Laser Quest facility and a simulator.
Teesside Park - the retail and leisure development which is located in Thornaby - was built in 1988.
