Why Bowling Makes a Great Date Night

October 25, 2023

When it comes to planning a date night, there are a lot of things to consider. You want to make sure the activity is fun and interesting, but also affordable and easy to organize. That’s why we recommend bowling! Not only is it a classic pastime that everyone can enjoy, but it also makes for an exciting and memorable date night.

Reasons to Love Bowling as a Date Night

1. No need to dress up fancy

Unlike other date night activities that might require a fancy outfit, bowling is a casual affair. Wear comfortable clothes, some fun socks, or even a cute bowling shirt and still have a great time!

2. Affordable

Bowling is one of the most affordable date night activities out there. Several 810 Billiards and Bowling locations offer discounted rates and great food specials during the week.

3. Lots of opportunity to chat

Because you’ll be taking turns on the lanes, there is plenty of downtime for chatting and getting to know each other better without having to shout over loud music or movie speakers.

4. Inspires friendly competition

A little competition brings out the best in people. Challenge each other to score high points or make it silly by bowling with your non-dominant hand. It helps build a stronger connection!

5. Great food to share

We offer a full menu at every location. Enjoy tasty snacks or a full meal while you savour the slow-paced, fun nature of the game.

6. You’ll laugh together

Bowling is lighthearted and plain fun. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-timer, the inevitable goofing around helps shake off nerves and helps you both relax.

7. Bonus Exercise!

You can burn anywhere from 100-300 calories per game. That means you can enjoy those shared appetizers guilt-free!

Planning that bowling date at 810 Billiards and Bowling is even better because we offer more than just lanes—enjoy darts, billiards, and board games paired with delicious drinks.
