Bankstown City Bowling & Recreation Club reviews
4 Star Review by Andrew Jens
A pretty basic club that is obviously aimed at bowls, pokies and the restaurant (which looks good). The staff were welcoming and friendly. It was very quiet when I was there, so probably need to aim for a trivia night or a competition day to see the place busy.
5 Star Review by Tracey Greig
We are now reasonably frequent visitors to this club, mainly for the bistro. The atmosphere in the club is always cheerful and the staff are friendly. The bistro is awesome, staff in the bistro are fantastic, the food is always great and so reasonably priced.
4 Star Review by Bridget Duffy
Nice little club with a great bistro. Staff are lovely, and food is really good and reasonably priced. Steak is always good, cheesy garlic bread is simple and tasty, and the crispy skin chicken with tomato rice is a must try. There's one man at the bar who makes the best lemon lime and bitters I've had in a very long time, and it's always fun to have a nice meal and a refreshing drink while watching the bowls.
4 Star Review by Adler E
Very delightful little find. I'm not into bowels, the green wasn't so green and cover options for players are limited. However, the selection of drink at the bar is impressive, while the bistro offered up the best grilled salmon meal I've had in ages, with grilled vegetables for 25 dollars. Very delicious. Worth the visit.
