Incredibly, that's where Leisure Time Bowling sets up its pins. You won't see the Silicon Alley trendies that infest Bowlmor here, just regular joes, a sports bar and video arcade, and the all-important snack counter (hurrah for mozzarella sticks!). Games cost $5.25 per person weekdays after 5 p.m. and on weekends ($4.25 weekdays before 5); shoe rental is $3.50. Follow signs for Gates 220-234
