From 8 p.m. until closing this Friday and Saturday, customers can try one of their custom cocktails in Bowlski’s unique projector room bar.

“Win-win for everyone,” Bowlski’s owner Craig Spivey said. “They get to work, Bowlski’s gets to host them and the Lakewood community can try some first-class cocktails. Last night they did great in tips and were super happy to be working again.”

Bartenders who are interested in being scheduled can contact Spivey at dude@bowlskis.com.

Bowlski’s is open at limited capacity with social distancing protocols.
