From bowling and billiards to drinking and dining, the Back Bay's top all-purpose lounge has it all. - Eric Grossman
Located in the former Loews Cheri cinema, this sprawling subterranean hangout offers various activities to a diverse clientele. By day, an all-ages crowd relaxes while enjoying games of 10-pin bowling. Come nightfall, the scene heats up as the kids go home and the socialites arrive, bringing with them lengthy waits for open tables and lanes. Friendly servers do their best not to interfere with any of the action. Kings' calling card is bowling, spread out over 16 regulation-sized lanes. Pricey shoe rental and game fees mean the fun doesn't come cheap, but never will you bowl in such a stylish, futuristic setting (computerized consoles enable players to track scores). To pass the time, those waiting for a lane play video games or dine in the retro Kings Restaurant (think meat loaf and mai tais).
