Everything you need to know before you visit.
Watford Woodside is open Mon-Thu 10am-11pm, Fri 10am-midnight, Sat 9am-midnight, Sun 9am-11pm. Those are our standard weekly hours -- bank holidays, school holidays and one-off events can change them, so it's worth checking this page before you set off. Availability late in the evening is the first thing to go on a busy night, so if you want a late game, book it rather than turning up at the door.
Watford Woodside is at Woodside Leisure Park, Kingsway, North Orbital Road, WD25 7JZ. We're on a leisure and retail park, alongside its other restaurants and attractions. Put WD25 7JZ into your sat nav or maps app and it will bring you to us. For anything local -- where to park, the best drop-off point, which bus stop is closest -- call us on 0844 826 1473; the team here know the answers better than any map does.
Accessibility differs from building to building, so the useful answer is a specific one rather than a general promise. Call us on 0844 826 1473 and we'll tell you exactly what to expect at Watford Woodside -- step-free routes, accessible toilets, lane ramps for wheelchair users, and where to park closest to the door. We'd rather have that conversation before you travel than after.
Outside food and drink isn't permitted, but you won't need it. Our Bar & Diner serves a full menu -- burgers, wings, pizza, sharing platters, kids' meals, soft drinks and cocktails -- and you can order from your lane and eat between frames rather than breaking off. We show live sport, so there's something on while you eat. Tell us about allergies or dietary requirements when you book and we'll talk you through the options.
Yes. Groups of 20 or more and any corporate booking are handled by our events team rather than the standard online journey -- they can put you on adjacent lanes, or hire all 27 lanes exclusively, arrange catering and a drinks package, and invoice you rather than take payment on the day. Call Watford Woodside on 0844 826 1473 and they'll build the run of the day around you.
Booking online is the only way to guarantee a lane, and at peak times it matters: Friday and Saturday evenings, school holidays, and wet weekends all fill up hours ahead. Walk-ins are welcome whenever we have space, but during those periods we often have none. Booking ahead also means you choose your time slot rather than taking whatever is free when you arrive.
