Frames: Remember the fun of bowling alley parties when you were a kid? A night out at Frames (f.k.a. Leisure Time Bowl) will be just like that, only with an adult (read: alcoholic) upgrade. For brewhounds, the 12-pint beer tower is an obvious choice, while sweet, chipper cocktails like the lemon sunrise martini (citrus vodka, sour apple Pucker, peach Schnapps, fresh grapefruit juice and grenadine garnished with a blood orange, $11) will please those with an over-active inner child. The restaurant offers more upscale eats than you’ll find at an AMF counter, including the likes of blue corn grilled chicken nachos ($11) and a 10 oz. marinated skirt steak ($18). Beyond just bowling and eats, this sleek venue also has an arcade, a lounge, a dance club and an easy-to-approach private party program, so anyone that can’t find fun here, well, just isn’t fun. Sure, you'll have to hang out around Times Square to join in the fun, but at least your mom doesn’t have to drop you off—and you might even get picked up.
