The Spare Room is located in the Roosevelt Hotel, Hollywood. It is almost like you are stepping into a very different zone with a retro vibe, classic cocktails, and traditional punch bowls from where you can pour your drinks and have a merry evening ahead. The bowling lounge is perfect for family as well as friends but the prices are a bit on the hefty side.

No matter if you are a 10 years old kid or a 70-year-old retired man, Winnetka Bowl will keep you equally engaged and promise the same fun. The Winnetka Bowl was formerly called Canoga Park Bowl which was opened 24 hours. But even currently, their opening timings are pretty great. Besides bowling, they have other activities too like billiards ad an arcade. Tired of playing all evening long? Try their restaurant with a lip-smacking menu! It also promises a lot of special events throughout the week. We highly recommend you don’t miss out on that!

So if you are a serious bowler, you would definitely want to take a look at the 32 lanes that are illuminated with runner lights! But it is not all for professionals! In fact, there are so many fun activities to do right from the sports bar which has air hockey and pool table to th video games station. Not to forget the amazing menu that they have where one can just lounge around after a hectic evening on the floor! You wouldn’t wanna miss out on this one for sure.

The theme of the Montrose Bowl is the 50s era. With the amazing 8-lane bowling alley, the place seems like a perfect venue no matter what time of the day! However, it is quite exclusive. It focuses mostly on parties and events. But the “commoners” can also enjoy the space with up to five people per lane on regular days. The place has been serving happy customers since 1936 and truth be told, it is a popular shooting destination for many TV Shows including Pleasantville and Teen Wolf!

Jewel City Bowl has newly been renovated and is all set to charm its customers with a promise of a gala time. The alley is located 15 min. east of Hollywood and just north of Downtown Los Angeles. You will also find so many other things to do besides the game of bowling – the amazing restaurant and bar as well as a sports complex which has other games and activities too. One can also book the alley for special events.
