As anyone who’s been will tell you, 300 Dallas is so much more than a bowling alley, once you’ve been there, you’ll know exactly what they mean. Call it elevated bowling; floor-to-ceiling video screens, gourmet cuisine all within a sophisticated environment.

While you’re there make sure to check out their menu which features a modern twist on classic favorites.

As you’ll know when you’re done planning your day, Dallas is full of indoor sporting options.

Listen to this line-up: arcade, bowling, laser-tag, rock-climbing wall, go-karts, mini golf and there’s more. Think that’s enough to keep the crew entertained for a day? You bet it is!
