Archie Brothers Wellington
Lanes woven through the Willis Street arcade
At 1 Willis Street in central Wellington, Archie Brothers has threaded its eight bowling lanes through the arcade floor rather than putting them in a separate hall. Coloured bowling balls, couches at each lane and QR codes for ordering food and drinks to your seat set the tone.
Holey Moley Golf Club shares the venue, with drinks allowed on the mini golf course, and two karaoke rooms come stocked with props and costumes, charged per room. Among the arcade games are Super Bikes 3, Mario Kart and Jurassic Park VR. Unlike the Christchurch branch, the Wellington doors open at 10am every day, while the bowling prices are the same in both cities.
