They have one of these in Philadelphia and it is AMAZING!

I also have a great 4 star French themed restaurant concept that involves a "Gringott's-like" elevator and lots of screens. I call it "Eiffel's" and the inside looks sort of like this:
"It's very romantic"- Ricky and the Lifestylers
"If you don't have a "view", create one"- Some Guy at WDI

Great ideas here but I hope for something like Le T!tty Twister, a French club I've been to. The atmosphere is super cool and always something weird/fun going on. Not at all family friendly but it's nice to get away from the little buggers and have some fun.

I'm 100% down with the Comcast/NBC Sports bar idea. Or..
I know it's been mentioned before, but I really would like to see Jekyll & Hyde come to Orlando, and NASCAR is the perfect size.

How big is the building? Besides the obvious NBC Sports Bar concept (which can be done across the lake at NBC City), I was thinking, if size permitting, maybe they would want to try and put a bowling alley in here? With Splitsville and King Bowl now open and highly successful, that's a clear market they are missing out on.
Again, it was just a thought based on King Bowl and Splitsville and i'm not even sure if it'd work. But it is a market they are missing out on.

Cabana bay has a bowling alley. So if they wanted more people to use it they should advertise it by the busses.
Does the bowling alley in Cabana Bay cover this need so they are not missing out on the market but maybe they need to elevate the visibility of that option in City Walk?
It's only a 10-lane alley though and you have to pay to park at the resort before paying for overpriced bowling.
Cabana Bay charges $15/person to bowl + $4 for shoe rental. On top of that, it's $8 to park at Cabana Bay if you don't stay there and that only covers you for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, you could go to Kings Bowl and it's only $8/person TOTAL (including shoes) to bowl. AT MOST it would be $10/person, and that's only on Fri/Sat after 6PM. Every day of the week it's $5 to bowl, $3 shoe rental before 6.
Also, Kings Bowl and Splitsville are decidedly more than just bowling alley's. They are a bar or a restaurant. I've gone to Splitsville AND Kings Bowl simply just to eat. Splitsville, imo, has some of the best pizza in Orlando. I'm not saying that the bowling alley at Cabana Bay isn't nice, but it's also not a viable option to market, it's meant for hotel guests only.

I see a bowling alley in CW as having many of the same drawbacks as that of the one in CBBR. It would be a more rounded experience being a part of a themed restaurant/bar, and people would not need to bus there from CW. But it would draw bowlers from on property hotel guests, reducing the number of those who go to CBBR to bowl. Being in an in-demand location would get some tourists staying off-side, but I wouldn't see it as something many locals would do.
I had thought the bowling alley at Cabana Bay would be Uni's answer to Splitsville/King's too, but after going playing there is no way they could come close to handling enough people to be viable. Add on to that the distance to the resort/bus access I wouldn't foresee many guests heading over there just to go bowling and eat lower quality food. I think a bowling alley would be a welcome addition here; it covers additional activities, sports bar environment, and food.
i'm down with a large arcade atmosphere like a dave and busters feel. Citywalk and Uni has golf, bowling, night clubs, etc but they lack in that crowd that enjoys the days of the arcade.

Nascar Cafe's bottom floor was an arcade and it was a failure in the same spot.
I dig that idea. A rooftop bar would be pretty sweet actually. There's a few rooftop bars down here(South Florida), and most of them are pretty fun.
I recall some people talking about a BBQ restaurant, which I love. A well-themed BBQ restaurant downstairs, with a country-western bar upstairs, sounds good to me.
All walls are gone now from Cowfish and there is a cowfish siton photo op
I saw a chef yesterday with a cowfish uniform and asked when they open, should be next week.
