Bowling 🎳 in New York/LIC: A Fun and Cozy Indoor Activity

New York’s long winter seems endless, so it’s time to stock up on indoor activities that are “warm and fun”: bowling! 🎳 So beginner-friendly, how could LIC residents resist? Plus, New York’s bowling alleys all have such unique indoor styles, but they’re equally photogenic. 📷 Time to gear up in some American/Chinese OOTD and head out! 👇 The Gutter Bar LIC 📍 10-22 46th Ave, Queens 💲 $8 (weekday) 💲 $25 (weekend) | Shoes 💲 $3 & Socks 💲 $2 Just a 6-minute walk from 🏙 5 Pointz! This bowling bar, mentioned in the “LIC Playlist,” is super spacious and has a great LIC vibe. It’s housed in a converted old factory. They also offer a wide selection of craft beers and snacks, and you can pop next door to Fifth Hammer for an even more authentic brew. Randolph Beer 📍 82 Prospect St, Brooklyn 💲 $46/55 per 55 minutes (Max 12 people) If LIC doesn’t have enough options, head to BK! With so many choices in BK, this one stands out. Feather Bowling is like rolling wooden cheese-wheel-like balls down the lane towards feathers 🪶 at the end; the closer you get, the more points you score! The space here is huge, and besides the retro arcade games, everyone must check out the rooftop for a stunning view of Manhattan from BK. It’s breathtaking, and you’ll regret it if you don’t see it, trust me! Bowlero Queens/Time Square/Chelsea Pier 📍 Queens location 👉 69-10 34th Ave, Queens (10 min by E/R line) 📍 Times Square location 👉 222 W 44th St, New York New York has three Bowlero bowling alleys! Tested and true, the Times Square location is the newest and most photogenic (though prices are a bit higher 😭). This Times Square spot is full of Chinese elements, with lanterns 🏮 and stone lions 🦁 that are super ornate. Invite your friends over; whether you bowl well or not doesn’t matter—great photos are guaranteed! #WeekendPlans #NewYork #NYCLife #LIC #NYCExploration #NYCBowling #LICExploration #lic #licsurroundings
