Bowling, Laser Tag & Arcade Games

Colonial Bowling & Entertainment gives Hopewell Township residents a genuine destination rather than a compromise. Here is everything waiting for your group when you make the drive.

Cosmic Blacklight Bowling

Our 24 USBC-certified bowling lanes run under full cosmic blacklight throughout every hour of every operating day. We run no leagues and maintain no competitive lane reservations, so Hopewell Township visitors always arrive to a fully available facility with a consistent, high-energy atmosphere from the first frame to the last.

Jurassic Quest Laser Tag

Our Jurassic Quest laser tag arena is open to all ages and accommodates up to 20 players per session with each experience lasting approximately 15 minutes. Hopewell Township families who make the drive to Colonial often find that laser tag alone justifies the trip for the younger members of the group, and then the older ones get competitive and the sessions multiply.

80+ Arcade & Redemption Games

More than 80 skill-based arcade and redemption games spread across approximately 3,500 square feet of dedicated arcade space. The variable-ticket model rewards improving skill over time, giving Hopewell Township visitors more reason to return than a single visit can satisfy – and a jackpot could hit at any time! Every Friday we run an arcade happy hour — check this page for current hours.
