King Pins, a new tech-infused bowling FEC, has opened its doors at a shopping mall in Manchester, UK.

King Pins Arndale

The venue will offer 12 lanes of tenpin and eight lanes of duckpin bowling, as well as two karaoke party rooms and an arcade featuring the latest games. Patrons will also be able to enjoy American pool, shuffleboard, batting cages and ice-free curling. Mini-golf, AR darts and a shooting range will feature for the first time at a King Pins venue.

This is the second King Pins in the area, after its first venue opened in the nearby Trafford Palazzo last July. It has taken over a space formally occupied by a sportswear shop.

The company has brought in a range of independent food vendors to handle F&B at the venue, serving a range of foods including pizzas, wings and desserts.

James Travis, brand manager at King Pins, said: “It feels so good to finally be able to open the door to our second Manchester home in the famous Arndale shopping centre.

“Guests can expect our signature tenpin and duckpin bowling alongside a range of King Pins debuts such as tech darts and mini-golf. Our friends at PLY and Wings of Power have joined us once again to serve up some delicious grub to keep you powered up in between games. See you on the bowling lanes.”
