Mara Ellison

Lane host lead

Mara sets the nightly lane grid and the party diary. She decides which birthday tables land on Friday, when the floor is busiest, and which open-play pair stays free for walk-ups after 18:00. If a date on the form and a league block on the board collide, she is the person who says which one waits. A daytime game stays €9.40 and an evening game stays €13.20 unless she has already told you the board changed.

Tomas Greaves

Pinsetter mechanic

Tomas keeps the pin machines and the ball returns running. He closes Monday at 23:30 so the lanes can be checked without a queue on the approach. If a machine stops mid-frame, he moves the group or pauses the clock rather than charging a second game for lost time. A bumper setting on lanes 11 and 12 is his to confirm before a junior game at €6.80 begins.

Host list

Adele Moreau

Front desk

Adele issues shoes from size 28 to 48 and takes the game payment at the desk. A daytime game is €9.40 and an evening game is €13.20, shoes included. She also writes the March shoe note when a size is out on a lane. Players who email [email protected] about a booking usually hear back from Adele or from Jonah, and she will say if your size is a short wait rather than send you onto the approach in street shoes.

Jonah Peck

Events host

Jonah runs birthday tables and company blocks. A weekday table for eight is €96 and a weekend table for eight is €128. A company block for ten is €165. He will tell you when Friday evening is full. He also checks that bumpers are up on lanes 11 and 12 before a junior party starts, and he takes the 40 percent when a party is over €120. Call +33 4 78 01 21 65 if the tram is late and the table is in his book.
