 Bowling in Istanbul?
A friend of mine is having her birthday tomorrow, and we were looking for a good place to go bowling. From our google search, it's a bit hard to weed out the good from the bad.
Any suggestions? (Preferably close to Ortakoy)
Thanks

There's a bowling place in Beşiktaş Carşısı. It's perfectly fine and they serve beer.

The one in profilo was OK but haven't been there for a few years whilst the bowling is ok at Cevahir they don't serve beer!! as Burbaco says the one in B'tas is fine; it does what it says on the box i.e. bowling, beer, table football and a few other amusement items dotted around the place.

considering who owns cevahir it is not a surprise.

Hmmmm.... Cosmic bowling...I'm intrigued. But, yes, to make it a truly cosmic experience it should also have some beer.
Thanks for the tips. I'll look into these possibilites.
