Activity bars are, quite frankly, our bag in Manchester, with pretty much one on every corner – from darts and golf, to video games and ping pong, we can't get enough of the competitive spirit. However, next month will see a new addition to the activity bar circuit in Manchester, but this time at the Trafford Centre, with King Pins opening its flagship at Trafford Palazzo.

The ‘crown jewels of bowling’, the new venue will have a plethora of activities on offer including 15 lanes of Ten Pin bowling and four lanes of Duck Pin bowling (a shorter-laned, faster game of bowling, new to the UK), shuffleboard, ice free curling, air hockey, karaoke booths and arcade games galore for guests of all ages. It will also feature two independent food concessions, a full-service bar and its very own dessert kiosk.

Confirmed to be joining the new flagship site are iconic Manchester pizza pros, PLY, and Asian street food favourites Little Bao Boy, offering an elevated experience with some of Manchester's best known names in food.

King Pins’ own dessert kiosk ‘Royal Treats’ will serve a huge selection of sweet snacks, from doughnuts and soft serve ice cream, to endless Pick ‘N’ Mix, while the new eye-catching bar in the venue will serve 20 different beers including from local Salford brewery, Seven Bro7hers, alongside a large variety of cocktails, alcohol-free options and homemade slushies.

James Travis, Brand Manager of King Pins, said: "We’re looking forward to finally opening King Pins this summer at Trafford Palazzo. The offering at King Pins is like no other, we are all about quality as opposed to outdated family fun. We can't wait to showcase everything on offer, including a truly state-of-the-art bowling experience and some top tier local food vendors.

"King Pins will be a place for the whole family to have fun, but equally the space will transform by night into an entertainment venue with music, drinks and bowling which is also perfect for adults looking for something different."

King Pins officially opens on Monday 17 July and bookings are now open here, and to keep up to date with King Pins, check out their Instagram.
