About The Keys

Right on Plenty Road, a sprawling former factory reborn into a retro-modern tenpin paradise. The Keys isn't just a bowling alley—it's a full-blown Northside entertainment behemoth. Vintage lanes. A massive beer garden. Glowing arcade cabs and pool tables. Preston weekenders routinely pack the house for the killer pub grub—think top-tier chicken schnittys and steaks with solid GF options—while throwing strikes or catching a drag trivia night. The vibe? Utterly relaxed but buzzing with energy. Word on the street is to lock in your lane bookings early, then settle in for hours. Whether you're rolling in a local league, lining up a double date, or just sinking a schooner in the courtyard, this sprawling warehouse conversion hits the pocket perfectly.

  • Retro Amusements: Vintage bowling lanes, pool tables, and classic arcade games housed in a sprawling converted warehouse.
  • Elevated Pub Grub: Serving up excellent steaks and chicken schnitzels alongside a dedicated menu of gluten-free options.
  • Vibrant Events: Hosts regular community events like drag trivia and local bowling leagues in a relaxed, spacious atmosphere.
  • Beer Garden: Features multiple distinct zones to hang out, including a large outdoor courtyard perfect for group catch-ups.
