Serious Eats: New York
Lucky Strike Lanes Now Open
Lucky Strike Lanes is now open on West 42nd street at 12th Avenue. In addition to pizza, burgers, sandwiches, and salads, the menu offers a variety of small plates, including items not typically seen in bowling alleys—deep-fried mac and cheese, tuna lollipops, coconut shrimp, and tomato and cheese s'mores among them. Sure it may not be bowling alley fare provided by Blue Ribbon, but it can't be any worse than the food at Leisure Time in the Port Authority.
More important, there's a full bar, so you can channel your inner Lebowski with a White Russian.
