I vaguely rememeber the Laarbruch Bowl, behind the NAAFI near the front gate I think. It was really small and a bit smelly, but every time I went I think that I was half away already!

Remeber going to the Daws Hill Bowl when at Striking Command, the food was great there, loads of chips, American beer and hot dogs.

The old Marham Bowl (which was a portacabin) was closed mid 2000s, but they did build a new Families Club outside the main gate and the Bowl moved into that building, been a couple of times, but must be couple of years since last there, can't beleieve that has closed already. I did think that the Families Club seemed very quiet.

I presume the Akroitiri Bowl now makes a pot of money from the Decompression folks as that is the first place you are taken to (or I was in Dec), bit of compulsory bowling to make you feel less stressed! Or try not to bash the ball on your mates head.....it was odd, because it was the first time I had bowled without a beer in the other hand!!
