North Bowl
Bowling alleys in Philadelphia
North Bowl is a bowling alley and lounge in Northern Liberties, spread across two floors near 2nd Street. The main floor holds thirteen lanes, a full bar, arcade games, and a cafe area; a smaller upstairs floor adds four more lanes, a second bar, lounge seating, and two pool tables. The venue rents both floors for private parties and events, and can seat groups across the building's multiple rooms for birthdays, graduations, and other celebrations. Vintage decor, a working photo booth, and a rotating arcade lineup give the space a lived-in, neighborhood feel rather than a corporate bowling center. Private events are booked through a dedicated events team, with a guest minimum and lead time required for full buyouts. The venue sits a few blocks from the Spring Garden stop on the Market-Frankford Line, making it accessible without a car for groups coming from other parts of the city.
