Markham Bowl

Markham Bowl is a classic family bowling alley that welcomes kids of all skill levels with bumper lanes to keep the fun going and minimize gutter balls. Beyond bowling, families can enjoy arcade games, grab a bite at the on-site food options, and take advantage of special family bowling nights and packages that make it an affordable outing for the whole crew.

• ✓Bumper lanes that prevent gutter balls and keep young bowlers engaged and happy
• ✓Arcade games offering a fun break between bowling frames or for non-bowling siblings
• ✓Family bowling packages that bundle games, shoes, and food at discounted rates
• ✓Extended hours on weekends (open until 1:00 AM Friday and Saturday) for families who enjoy evening outings
• ✓On-site food options so you can refuel without leaving the venue

1. 1.Book ahead for weekend visits, especially Friday and Saturday evenings when the alley stays open until 1:00 AM and gets busy with families and teens.
2. 2.Ask about family bowling packages when you arrive, as they often include shoe rentals, multiple games, and food at a discounted rate.
3. 3.Visit on weekday mornings or early afternoons (Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM) for the quietest experience and sometimes discounted daytime rates.
4. 4.Bring socks for everyone, as bowling shoes are required and having your own socks is more comfortable than buying them on-site.
5. 5.Set a budget for the arcade before you arrive, as kids can easily get carried away with game tokens.

Weekday afternoons (Tuesday through Thursday, 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM) offer the least crowded experience. Alternatively, check their family bowling nights schedule for special deals and a fun atmosphere designed specifically for families with children.

This is a budget-friendly outing ($ price range) with on-site food available so you can make it a complete meal and activity. The venue is located on Highway 7, with ample parking available. Shoe rentals are required and available for all sizes, including small children.

This is a year-round indoor activity, perfect for rainy days, cold Canadian winters, or anytime you want climate-controlled family fun. Check their website for special holiday events and themed bowling nights during school breaks.

Highway 7 in Markham has numerous family-friendly restaurant chains and local eateries within a short drive, including Swiss Chalet and various Asian restaurants popular in the area, though the on-site food options make it easy to dine while you bowl.
