Rowans Tenpin Bowl Finsbury Park: Bowling & Karaoke in London
Rowans is a long-running Finsbury Park entertainment venue built around 24 ten-pin bowling lanes, with 6 private karaoke booths, pool, four bars and an arcade alongside. It is an all-in spot for birthdays, groups and family days out, where you can bowl a few games then take over a booth to sing. Booth karaoke is bookable by the hour with a 50% deposit, and prices step up in the evenings.
The karaoke booths run the Sunfly system with over 8,000 songs and hold roughly 12 to 15 people each, from around £28 for a daytime weekday slot up to £80 on Friday and Saturday nights. The bowling lanes, pool tables and arcade round out a full night, and there are four bars on site.

The karaoke setup
There are 6 private booths, so you and your group get your own room rather than singing to strangers. Each booth holds roughly 12 to 15 people, and the venue can spread larger parties of up to 50 across the rooms. The song system is Sunfly with over 8,000 tracks, so the back catalogue is deep enough to keep a long night going. Booths are booked by the hour, which makes it easy to slot karaoke around a bowling game or drinks rather than committing to a whole evening in one spot.
Good to know
Pricing is per booth per hour, not per person. Daytime weekday booths start around £28, daytime weekends around £38, and evenings climb to £50 on Sunday to Thursday and £80 on Friday and Saturday, where you are capped at two hours. You pay a 50% deposit to book and settle the balance plus admission on arrival. Book online any time, or call the office on 020 8800 1950 between 9:30am and 5pm on weekdays. Four bars on site keep drinks close, and there is bowling, pool and an arcade if singing is not the only plan.
Getting there
The venue sits on Stroud Green Road, a couple of minutes from Finsbury Park station, which is on the Piccadilly and Victoria lines plus National Rail and the Overground. That makes it an easy meeting point from most of north and central London. It keeps late hours too, open until 12:30am most nights and 2:30am on Friday and Saturday, so a booth booking can run well past last orders elsewhere.
