Bowling in Silesia means five alleys in Katowice, Częstochowa, Sosnowiec and Koszęcin, with lanes, a bar and often billiards under one roof.
The overview suits an evening with friends or a family afternoon when the forecast should not decide the programme. Some alleys combine play with karting, a restaurant or a club, so a whole evening can be planned on one site.
Where to bowl in Katowice?
The regional capital has two alleys of different character: one in an entertainment complex in Załęże, the other in a club in the city centre.
Gravitacja is an entertainment centre in the Punkt 44 complex. Besides bowling it offers billiards, catering and birthday packages. The Galaktyka alley is inside the Club Garage at Dąbrówki 10. It has eight lanes, arranged with children and families in mind, and the complex also has a billiards room and a restaurant. The club has operated since 2007.
Where to combine bowling with karting or a pub?
Two venues outside Katowice combine bowling with other forms of entertainment.
In Sosnowiec, Pit Stop Bowling at Stawowa 4 stands next to a karting track and the Pit Stop restaurant. It has lanes for children and a ramp for people with disabilities, and moving over to the go-karts takes a moment. In Częstochowa, the alley in Złote Arkady has four lanes with computerised scoring and a pub where you can eat and drink.
Is there a bowling alley next to a palace in Silesia?
Yes. In Koszęcin the Kręgielnia Pod Pałacem on Zamkowa Street 1 stands beside the palace complex. It is a small venue with two lanes and a bar, good for a short game after a walk around the area.
How to choose a bowling alley in Silesia
What counts most is what lies beyond the lanes. For a family game, pick a venue with lanes prepared for children; for an evening with friends, an alley with a bar, a pub or a club; and for a longer plan, one beside a karting track. Every venue in this selection works indoors, so bowling in Silesia can be planned whatever the weather.
