Investors will vote at the company’s annual meeting later this month whether to approve the award.
Almost 50 per cent of shareholders rebelled against the company’s remuneration report in 2021 after Burns was paid £623,000.
Hollywood Bowl, which has 63 venues in the UK, received £8.3million in furlough last year. But it has bounced back since lockdown restrictions eased.
The listed firm recently reported profits of £37.5million from revenues of £193.7million. It also handed £600,000 to employees in cost-of-living payments.
Hollywood Bowel shares rose 4.6 per cent in 2022. Hollywood Bowl was contacted for comment.
