Thunderbowl

Whether you’re looking to pick up a spare or just pick up a cold pint, Thunderbowl Lanes (formerly the historic Thunderbird Lanes) in Wrightstown is the ultimate neighborhood social hub. Since its original founding in 1958 by James “Pop” Davis to serve the neighboring military base and surrounding community, this venue has remained a staple of Burlington County for over 60 years. While it changed hands in 2020, the new owners have kept the classic warmth alive while modernizing the experience for a new generation of enthusiasts.

Features & Ambiance

For the bar enthusiast, the highlight is the full-service operating bar that serves as the heart of the facility. It’s the perfect spot to grab a cold beer or a specialty cocktail while watching the action on the 24 newly renovated lanes. If you aren’t in the mood to bowl, the lounge area is equipped with billiard tables and a retro-style arcade, providing a laid-back “dive bar” charm that’s hard to find these days.

The kitchen at Thunderbowl has earned its own following, with locals vouching for their “unexpectedly good” pizza and crispy chicken fingers. On the entertainment front, the venue keeps the energy high with glow-in-the-dark bowling nights and a music selection that balances nostalgia with modern hits. For those who prefer the outdoors, you’ll even find fire pits and comfortable seating to unwind after a long day of league play or a casual night out with friends.
