About The Lookout Scarborough
The Lookout sits on The Esplanade in Scarborough and combines a bowling alley, a bar and a kitchen under one roof. It opens seven days from 11am, stays relaxed through the day and gets livelier once evening rolls in. Beachwear and thongs are welcome, so it suits a group heading straight up from the sand. Bowling is priced by the game, with shoe hire included, though guests need to bring their own socks. The Bottomless Bowl package gives a group two hours of unlimited games plus endless pizza and three rounds of drinks. For younger guests, the Lil' Strikers party includes two hours on the lanes with a meal and drink for each child, along with invitations families can download and send. For bigger gatherings, the venue splits into several bookable areas. Bungalows hold up to 25 people for two to three hours, while the Ocean Alfresco, The Left Deck, the Lounge Deck, The Palms and Conti's Bar range from about 10 to 100 guests. Birthdays, kids parties, hens, brunches and work celebrations are all catered for, and there is no hire fee on any of these spaces. The kitchen turns out sharing plates and heartier mains, and the bar runs a cocktail list alongside beer and wine.
