## Story

In a recent article from the Chandler Arizonian, 810 Billiards & Bowling’s first franchisee, Poonam Manek, discusses her and her husband’s journey from the healthcare industry into franchising with the upscale eatertainment brand.

“We feel as though people are ready to get out and start having a social life again,” said Manek. “Meeting with friends and getting out with the family or doing whatever is up their alley, pun intended.”

Manek says that she and her husband, Ronak, were attracted to 810 Billiards & Bowling’s upscale bowling alley atmosphere without breaking their guest’s banks.

“We want to give you that elevated feeling without elevating prices,” Manek told the Chandler Arizonian.

The Maneks are thrilled to be a part of the revitalized social scene post-pandemic.

“Every single person who walks out of here needs to walk out with a smile on their face,” said Manek.
