Really expensive - not impressed. We ended up paying £52 for half an hour's bowling which is much more than other places. You only get one game, however quickly it ends, not even a few extra bowls to fill the hour slot while it sits empty.

Service at the bar was terrible, grumpy staff, and, again, really expensive - cocktails were poor and small bottles of beer for £3.80 is ridiculous. They seem to think it's fine to charge a bomb for rubbish drinks just because you also want to do something while you're there - it's not a strip club.

We felt completely ripped off and went somewhere else for dinner (which looked very average) to get us in a better mood.

Great bowling, fantastic food and very friendly service.
We had a big group booking and the staff made what could have been an organizational nightmare very easy.
The American diner-esque food was delicious too, served by the most charming waitresses, one of whom laid down a bowling challenge for the next visit, and there will definitely be a next visit!

Had a brilliant time at a work do there. Staff were attentive and relaxed. Food was delicious with good sized portions (and that was just on the bowl, drink and dine menu). Cocktails and bar service was excellent with a good choice of American beers (not a bud in sight!).

Decor is great, the bar being surprisingly swanky like a classy 70s nightclub: comfy leather corner sofas and disco balls, so would be great for just a drink without the bowling. The very friendly and efficient staff took away all the effort of organising our large group allowing us to get stuck into the bowling!

Thanks for a great night!

A really great experience. Easy to book, informative staff on the phone. Fantastic service for drinks and food whilst bowling, really helpful and friendly staff at the venue. Enjoyed it so much on a hen do I took all my friends a few weeks later who also loved it. Will definitely be back.

Great food, amazing US diner style burgers especially. The bowling alley is small and friendly and the bar and seating areas are comfortable with mood lighting and ace cocktails. We went on a work night out with bowling, dinner and drinks and it was perfect for that. We wished we could have had another game of bowling though!

I threw a surprise birthday party at All Star in Holborn and everyone had tons of fun. The venue is in a central location and the service in the bar, diner and reception was great. The food there was surprisingly amazing! You wouldn't think so for a bowling alley but I now know that is where I am going anytime I crave classic American food. It's probably the best cheeseburger and fries I've had in London so far!! And really good mac n'cheese. I'm definitely going again for food and bowling.

Awesome venue for a group night out! Organised a hen do here - staff were really obliging (even when we had a few latecomers). Bowling was great and the house shots were really tasty!

Went here for my birthday with 9 other friends. We had dinner in the diner before and then had an hour's bowling time. Food in the diner was good value for money...the baby back ribs are the best on the menu...delicious! Cocktails are tasty and service is attentive and friendly.

As it was my partner and I's birthdays, on arrival in the diner, the venue gave us both birthday cards with vouchers inside for one free cocktail each, which was a great treat.

Bowling was superb fun, good way to mix with friends and bring out some competitive streaks in some!

After the bowling we headed to the bar area for some drinks, nice bar with late licence, good music and bar service was efficient.

Highly recommend a night out with a group of you in All Star Lanes, great fun and good value!
