Best Places for Bowling in Ahmedabad 2026

Prices, timings, lanes and ratings were verified in July 2026 from official pages.

Bowling in Ahmedabad has quietly become one of the city's favourite ways to spend an evening. It works for a first date, a rowdy group of college friends, a family with restless kids, or a corporate team that needs a break from the meeting room. The problem is that "bowling in Ahmedabad" doesn't mean one thing. Some venues are proper alleys with a dozen glowing lanes. Others are giant family entertainment centres where bowling is one attraction sitting next to go-karting, trampolines and a wall of arcade machines.

Quick Answer: Where Should You Go Bowling in Ahmedabad?

If you want the short version:

  • Best overall right now: Funzone Bowling Alley at TRP Mall, Bopal — 12 lanes, combo pricing and space for big groups.
  • Best-rated experience: BounceUp on Ambli-Bopal Road — top Google rating in the city, interactive lanes plus a trampoline park.
  • Most central and budget-friendly: Fun Zone at Himalaya Mall, Memnagar — a large bowling floor right on Drive-In Road.
  • Best for families and younger kids: BounceUp and SBR Fun Blast on Sindhu Bhavan Road — bowling plus trampolines, rides and soft play.
  • Cheapest lane price: FAPP The Ultimate Game Zone (Ognaj) starting around ₹200–₹275.
  • Note on SHOTT: SHOTT on Sindhu Bhavan Marg — usually the city's premium pick — is temporarily closed at the time of writing. Check before planning a visit there.

Ahmedabad does not have dozens of standalone bowling alleys. It has a handful of dedicated lanes and a strong lineup of entertainment centres that feature bowling — and this guide treats them as exactly what they are.

1. SHOTT — Sindhu Bhavan Marg, Thaltej

Type: Entertainment Center with Bowling · Google Rating: 4.5★ · Best Premium (when open)

⚠️ Temporarily closed. At the time of writing, SHOTT is not operating. It remains the city's benchmark premium venue, so it's kept here for reference — but call ahead or check its official channels before planning a visit, and pick one of the operating alternatives below in the meantime.

SHOTT is the closest Ahmedabad gets to a big-city entertainment complex, and bowling is one of its headline attractions. It runs 6 regular lanes plus 4 VIP lanes, and markets an interactive "spark technology" scoring experience with augmented-reality effects on the lane — a genuine step up from the plain alleys elsewhere in the city.

Why visit. You get everything in one trip. After a couple of frames you can move on to go-karting, 360 cricket, laser tag, VR games, a zipline and rope course, and a large arcade, then eat without leaving the building.

Who should visit. Groups and couples who want a premium night out, corporate teams, and families with older kids and teens.

Address: 3, Sindhu Bhavan Marg, opp. Saket, next to Sankalp Square, PRL Colony, Thaltej, Ahmedabad 380059.

Price: Bowling around ₹369 weekdays and ₹449 weekends.
