Brunswick's Lanes Open in Cobb

Brunswick’s, a new upscale bowling and entertainment center in the Marietta area, opened on Friday, June 14.

The bowling center hosted an exclusive preview benefiting Wounded Warrior Project on Wednesday, June 12. More than 150 guests, including Marietta Wounded Warriors, bowled 326 strikes for which Brunswick’s donated $10 per strike, raising $3,260.

Wounded Warrior Project is a nonprofit group dedicated to providing direct programs and services to meet the needs of injured service members.

“We’re thrilled to introduce our new Brunswick’s concept to the Atlanta area and honor the dedication and sacrifices of our veterans,” said Brunswick Bowling Retail president Jim Fox. “We were privileged to have local Wounded Warriors join us for this special evening, specifically Navy veteran Lance Waldrop who kicked off the fundraising by rolling out a ceremonial bowl.”

The 40,000-square-foot location features completely remodeled interiors designed by Chipman Design Architecture with upgraded bowling equipment. The bowling center will also contain Tavern ’45, crafted around distinctive American pub fare with a focus on unique, quality ingredients.

"We designed a place where guests will want to socialize and connect with family and friends through group activities while enjoying great food, craft beer and exceptional service,” Fox said.

A second location will open in Norcross in late-July and feature a lofted bar area situated in the middle of the lanes as well as an outdoor patio.

Brunswick’s is located at 2749 Delk Road, and can be reached at 770.988.8813. Brunswick’s is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to midnight and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Brunswick’s is available for private events.
