An Essex town is set to get a new addition to its nightlife as a leading entertainment brand is opening a new venue.

Tenpin, the UK’s leading bowling and entertainment brand, is opening the next phase of its development in Harlow.

Tucked away on the third floor above Tenpin’s current hub in the town, the brand promises Level 3 is a "hidden gem" which is set to be the "worst kept secret" in town.

The venue boasts a large island bar area serving a selection of cocktails and buckets of beer as well as six pool tables, 10 table tennis tables and three beer pong tables.

Tye Byram, general manager at Tenpin Harlow, said: “Following the successful relaunch of our bowling and entertainment centre last year, we are delighted to be bringing a brand-new concept to Harlow this month.

"With a wide range of activities that cater to groups of all sizes as well as a delicious cocktail selection, we hope that Level 3 will become a hotspot for adults in the area looking for a great evening out, no matter the occasion.

"We look forward to welcoming guests to experience the venue and try out all we have to offer.”
