Brooklyn Bowl Opens Restaurant Portion of Venue

Brooklyn Bowl Nashville, a new entertainment venue in Germantown, opens the restaurant portion of its venue today, Monday, June 1.

Brooklyn Bowl previously announced it would open mid-March but was delayed due to COVID-19.

This opening will provide locals with a culinary preview of what is to come when the venue is fully open. When fully open, the venue will feature 19 bowling lanes, live music and food by acclaimed Blue Ribbon Restaurants.

As a special thanks to its first patrons, any guest who dines during the opening week (from Monday, June 1 through Friday, June 5) will receive one hour of free bowling to redeem during a future visit.

“We know this is a tough time everywhere,” said founders Charley Ryan and Peter Shapiro.  “We are thrilled to open our doors to the people of Nashville and thought it would be great to offer a taste – literally – of what’s to come with our food, and to gift the community with the chance to bowl for free when they visit us again.”

Brooklyn Bowl Nashville will be open Monday through Friday from 5PM to 10PM and Saturday through Sunday from 11AM to 10PM.

Limited seating will be available in the restaurant and the open air porch on the second floor. No advance reservations are available at this time and walk-ins are welcome (subject to availability). Bowling and live music are not currently being offered, but are planned for the near future and will be implemented in accordance with Metro Public Health’s Reopening Orders.

The team has implemented enhanced health and safety protocols to provide a safe space for all who visit, including socially distanced seating, temperature checks for all who enter, and a requirement that masks be worn by all staff and guests (except when eating).
