The Ballroom Bowl - John St, Toronto
Bowling and dining at John and Richmond
The John Street location of The Ballroom Bowl sits at the corner of John and Richmond, in the heart of Toronto's Entertainment District, and is one of three Ballroom Bowl venues in the city. Ten-pin lanes share the room with a dining area and a full bar, which pours house cocktails, a rotating list of local and imported craft beers, and red and white wines.
The kitchen cooks from scratch, with steaks, vegetarian plates and house-made desserts. Private event spaces come with dedicated planners and adjustable packages, and the site also promotes the venue for weddings. Google's listing shows lanes open until 2 AM on Friday and Saturday nights. Seating, the entrance and the restroom are listed as wheelchair accessible.
