Levi made us feel welcome. His attitude contributed to the evening. We had a great time. The only glitch was the microphone. This was rather annoying. Levi sorted it out for us

Taking my daughter to a summertime singing activity. The staff was very friendly to us and gave us the same amount of time to sing even though we were a bit late on the booking date.

The gentleman who checked us in was very accommodating. He gave us time to make sure all of our group had arrived. Very helpful when we had a minor problem using the scoring computer. We enjoyed a lovely family outing.

Nice venue, rude staff
I visited this bowling venue recently as part of an anniversary booking. The venue itself has clearly been improved and expanded since my last visit. It is a much larger space now and I really liked the addition of the pool tables and the overall upgraded layout.
However, unfortunately the experience at reception really affected our visit. From the moment we arrived and mentioned our booking, the staff member we dealt with came across as quite rude and unwelcoming. There was no smile or basic friendliness, and the tone felt quite negative throughout the interaction.
I do understand that staff may be busy or having a difficult moment, but it wasn’t particularly busy at the time we arrived or when we left, so it was disappointing. It made us feel quite uncomfortable and honestly took away from what should have been a nice occasion.
We are not teenagers or a disruptive group, so it felt unnecessary to be made to feel unwelcome. If we hadn’t already pre-booked, I likely would have gone elsewhere.
Overall, the venue itself is good and has improved, but the customer service at reception really let the experience down. I’m not sure I would return based on this experience.

Always enjoy bowling at Tenpin
Always enjoy bowling at Tenpin, it's a nice venue with a variety of entertainment options. Staff ard friendly (especially Imagen). We had the half term deal with burgers and 2x games of bowling which was great value. This review would of had 5 stars, however we were placed on the new section of lanes (Lane 20) which was like a wind tunnel with the air con on full blast, and I felt outside by the coast during a storm.

We're sorry the air conditioning on Lane 20 affected your experience. We'll check this to ensure it doesn't impact future visits. Thanks for the feedback! All the best ~ Laura

Karaoke and bowling was so much fun
Karaoke and bowling was so much fun! We all had a really good time and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was also very good and reasonably priced. It was nice to go out and not spend so much money to have a great time.

I booked online for 2 games for 4 people and when I arrived they said I should have had a discount as it was after 5 on a Sunday. I spent £72 and it should have cost me £48 so not impressed

The experience was fun!
The experience was fun! Everyone enjoyed themselves, the staff were polite and friendly and the service was as quick as possible due to being busy. The only complaint is that the game had to be delayed due to the bowling balls collecting at the bottom of the lane which caused a blockage. Other than that, it was a good time!
