Lane7, the kitchen and bowling alley which has made bowling cool again since it opened six months ago, has added mini-golf to its repertoire.
Now, and for a limited period, you can follow up an American diner‑style dinner of house smoked baby-back ribs, blackened Cajun salmon, or piri piri BBQ spatchcock chicken, with a round on a seven-hole mini golf course.
Every putter has a name and at the final hole you can try the ‘impossible putt.’ If you hole it, you win the round outright and your ball magically wends its way to the bar where a free drink awaits. Genius.
Mini golf at Lane7, St James Boulevard, is on Thurs-Sun nights until mid-June. Bookings, tel 0191 261 6161, www.lane7.co.uk
