Building work starts on new ten pin bowling alley
Building work has begun on a new ten-pin bowling alley and indoor golf centre in Bristol’s Harbourside.
The ten lanes and three crazy golf courses will be taking over a trio of neighbouring units on Millennium Promenade between Millennium Square and the Harbour Inlet.
Over the years, the units opposite Pizza Express have seen the likes of M&S Simply Food, Hooters, a party shop, restaurant, cafe and sports shop come and go.
is needed now More than ever
Plans for the scheme were submitted to Bristol City Council in February, with bowling on the ground floor and golf on the mezzanine.
The former Triathlon Shop and Beyond the Wall cafe was most recently used as a video game arcade pop-up, while The Cuban restaurant closed in 2019 and had remained empty.
The third unit – nearest Millennium Square – that is part of the plans has never previously been occupied.
A poster from Canada Life on the windows of the affected buildings said that the proposals “seek to contribute towards the council’s aspirations for Explore Lane… which is located on a ‘Leisure Use Frontage’ in the Bristol Central Areas Plan”.
