Washington's AMF Bowling alley set for huge £200,000 Hollywood Bowl upgrade

Washington's AMF bowling alley is set for a striking new look as the centre gets a £200,000 makeover.

Work is underway to transform AMF Bowling into a Hollywood Bowl entertainment centre.

The £200,000 investment is bringing the brand's 'iconic American décor and advanced technology' to the bowling centre in The Galleries Retail Park.

Marie-Anne Regan, Centre Manager at AMF Bowling Washington , said: "At AMF Bowling, we’re excited to be bringing the iconic Hollywood bowling experience to the people of Washington. The centre has had a glamorous makeover and we’re delighted to be able to continue to give customers the best family entertainment experience as we rebrand to a new generation Hollywood Bowl"

"We’ll remain open for business as usual until all the work is complete so the people of Washington can be rest assured, they can still get their bowling fix.”

The centres 26 lanes and four VIP lanes are getting a makeover, and a Hollywood Diner is being added, so visitors can buy American-style dishes, including burgers, hot dogs and fresh milkshakes.

Joining the Diner will be an American-style bar offering speciality cocktails, and American pool tables

The arcade area is getting an upgrade too, with Space Invaders, Mario Kart, Tomb Raider 65”, Halo and Joker Air Hockey all being added to the amusements.

Work is expected to be complete by mid-July. The bowling alley will remain open to customers in between.
