Personally I've got a thing for girls in 1950s get up, so the night was hardly going to be a dissapointment. Even the sour-faced guestlist chick, or the time it took to que, didn't put a dampner on it. Incidentally you might want organise a big group and ring ahead. You'll get popped in the 'special' que and your wait will be drastically cut. Either way, it's worth it for the fun inside, compared, by one of my crew, to 'bowling for grown ups'. By this, they meant the place wasn't filled with arcade machines, hoodies and MTV. In fact it was literally rocking in there. DJs played a fine selection of 50s and 60s favourites and the cocktails were delightfully overpoured. Pretty reasonable as well.
The karaoke booths were filled with streams of giggling girls going in and out and the restaurant/ diner had a lively hub bub.
We sat at the back, upstairs, away from the main dancefloor but still felt involved in the atmosphere. When it was our time to bowl, about 12, we wondered past Quadrafenia being played on the big screen, and downstairs to another dancefloor/ bowling alley. The place was big.Over the two floors, there must have been about 400 people at one time. And to top the night off I won the game, although strangely no-one sgave a shit (apart from me).
