cosmic bowling - what more could you want?

Rated this place:

Located in the basement of the Faubourg shopping centre, Sharx features 36 pool tables, a Bubble bar, classic arcade games, and my favourite - glow-in-the-dark “cosmic” bowling lanes. Warning – arrive early or give your name and take a seat at the bar – Sharx is a popular place on the weekend. Rumours as to whether or not Justin Timberlake had his birthday here during his last visit to Montreal continue to circulate, but regardless, it’s a great place to relax, host a party, or to encourage some team building with your coworkers. In addition, it makes a great first date/blind date spot. It's fun, a little embarrassing, and low-pressure. The booming top 40 soundtrack and the sound of crashing pins allow you to cleverly avoid awkward silences, and the booze and dorky bowling shoes act as a social lubricant. In addition, it may give you some perspective on your date that you otherwise might not have had the chance to consider - the way a person reacts to losing or winning a casual, social sporting activity can be a enlightening indicator of their personality.

Bowling

Rated this place:

Two words: Disco Bowling. Great bar food like nachos, wings, fries and a huge beer list. Others love playing pool here or watching a hockey game, but if you are a serial bowler- this is the place to be.

Bowling

Rated this place:

Apparently Justin Timberlake once rented this entire venue for a party. If that's not enough incentive to fave this place, I don't know what is. Sharx is huge and bowling is one way to pass the time - try your hand at the classic arcade games or pool if you're just not in the mood to knock pins down. Much classier than your average bowlerama. 1606 Ste-Catherine O.
