My partner and I visited All Star for the first time on his birthday this year. Had heard good reviews from others and due to it only being the two of us we decided to go to a smaller bar.

The drinks are quite pricey, but what can you expect in London. The drinks were amazing and the staff were incredibly welcoming and lovely to us!

The bowling was hilarious, everyone there was 'merry' which brought a great atmosphere to the place.

The music was also brilliant, most people were singing along and dancing.

Hands down best bar in Brick Lane and the surrounding area!

Great food - Appalling service.

My friends and I visited last Friday for a meal. I had been previously been and had enjoyed the food, so felt no hesitation in recommending we eat there.

I wish I hadn't bothered. We ordered 4 Blue Moons from the menu that is laid out on the table, priced at £3.60. We received a charge for £4.75 per Blue Moon on our bill. Apparently, Blue Moon costs £4.75 a pint, which isn't displayed on the menu we were given.

Our waiter then offered to revise the bill, which came back at £89.99. Despite numerous attempts by each person to calculate the final cost, it didn't come up to £89.99, rather it came up to £77 at most (including a voluntary charity donation - which is fine, but we were never asked if we would like to include it.) This discrepancy was brushed off by the waiter.

As we were leaving, my friend asked if he could have a copy of the bill for his records. He was presented with a bill that totaled to £80.

What I would like to know is why All Star Lanes in Brick Lane believe it's fair practice to overcharge their customers?

Bowling was great and so were the drinks when they eventually arrived the bar service was exceedingly slow and 3 out of 4 items ordered had run out, 1, Root Beer 2, Chocolate Ice Cream, 3, Kiwi Fruit (for cocktail)
pretty shoddy to be honest but a bit of good luck!! they had mint for my Mojito. Would have drunk a lot more if the service was speedier but their loss.

I had the burger and have to say it was really good and not expensive, really well cooked, juicy and well seasoned. Overall the group enjoyed the food but we had no server so were not offered desert etc, we just got the bill and left. Big shame really and an anti-climax after all of the good reviews; Maybe they were all written by the Marketing team and staff .

After visiting here expecting something different we were disappointed , if the burger had not been good then I would have considered not paying the 12% service charge. Could be good but just ain't.

This is a regular for me and my best mate - we meet for milkshakes there at least once a week because they are just soooooo good. I would suggest the reese's one! They aren't expensive either.
Food is good too. I would like them to change the menu up sometimes (cos then I'd go and eat there more often), but the food is a high standard. I turned up on my birthday once with a large group of people, and even without a reservation they went out of their way to get us a table together (on a busy night) and were really friendly.
I've been bowling there too - I remember it being reasonably priced, but I also found out that there's an offer they do for Sunday bowling with Rogue Traders record shop which is worth checking out. I thought the cocktails were a little pricey in the bar, so I only had 1, but it was good...shame I couldn't have more!

Went with my friends on the weekend, very cool place, great atmosphere. I went with the expectation of it beign a huge bowling hall, but it was a nice suprise to find that it is bowling/dining and drinking all in one place and done to a very high standard. It was a bit pricey for the bowling but the quality of the bowling balls, lanes and shoes made it well worth it, much better than anywhere i'd been before, it's the sort of place i could see myself going regularly, the food was tasty and really filling, and the cocktails were very refreshing and helped with my bowling, i got 5 strikes!! my best ever!! Will definitely be going again very soon! 5 big fat stars!!

Decided to hire out the "private room" @ allstar lanes (bricklane) for my partners 25th birthday. Venue is nice, not all the clean when you walk in (carpet has various staines) and dont be fooled when they say 130 or so capacity, I had about 50/60 people and that was more than enough! Guests slowly began to come, things were going well, notice I said "going". I hooked up my mp3 to the sound system, and the music kept cutting out, when I asked the woman working there why this was happening, she shrugged her shoulders and said I dont know. Then, 2 of the 3 bowling lanes ive paid £500 to hire decided to break, technician eventually called to fix and to be fair fixed pretty quick, but considering your paying that much to hire the place you really dont need that happening. Food was ok at best, but its pricey, so get some overtime in before coming here lol. Saying all of the above, people did enjoy the party (adults and children) and my partner loved it. Great venue for private hire, just wasnt happy with various "glitches" on the night. Hope this helps.

Visited twice in a week, and both times the staff were very friendly, efficient and courteous. The food was excellent, the milkshakes the best in London, and I have tried every milkshake in London.

No, really.

Every milkshake.

We've booked it for a party in March.

That's how happy we are with it.

An excellent diner.
