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.

A great night out with friends.
A great night out with a group of friends. The staff were friendly and helpful, the facilities and equipment were really good. The bar was cheap and we even got cocktails delivered to our bowling lane so we didn't have to miss a turn queueing up.

The Lazer tag aspect of the party was good, but the food so so slow the children got fed up waiting, had to ask for the cake several times.
A Few of the children said the pizza wasn't great.

Terrible service for my birthday
We rushed to arrive on time for our 8pm slot for karaoke. We were told people were still in the room and had to wait for 15 minutes for them to be kicked out.
This eventually happened, and we had one hour on the machine as we had booked, even though this had run over. However, as we got to nearer 9 o'clock when we should have originally finished. A member of staff kept coming in the room, moaning at us telling us to hurry up. This might sounds petty, but it was really obnoxious. The last thing you want when you are being silly with your friends and partners is someone YOU DONT KNOW coming in and opening the door, so everyone can see you dancing and singing. The guy also went as far as to turn the light off, REGARDLESS OF THE FACT WE HAD 15 MINUTES LEFT!
On what world, is it our fault, that the staff there cant work to a schedule, and ruin time I PAID for with my friends for my birthday evening out. Dont feel it should have been taken out on us whatsoever. Absolute disgrace.
Oh the other thing was the ordering of drinks. We kept trying to order drinks to the karaoke room, which was available on the app, to only be told that we need to order to the table that is inside the karaoke room? There was no label on either tables in there telling us this, so in the end we just went outside to order drinks.
Absolutely disgraceful. For the same money I could buy a karaoke machine.

I paid £18.95 for me and my son to have a game of bowling,I thought we had the lane for an hour but after 20 mins we were finished and when I asked if we could have another game,we were told “no”…£18.95 is very expensive for a 20 minute game,I’m a single parent on a low income and thought it would be a nice treat for my son but he was upset and sad that it ended ever so quickly and we won’t be doing that again 😡

Hi Michelle, thank you for taking the time to review Tenpin Chichester! We're very sorry to hear that you found the bowling expensive and for any disappointment caused during your game. The duration of the bowling is approximately 10 minutes per person, per game, and during our peak times, it may not be possible to add another game while visiting as this will be subject to lane and time availability. We have some great offers available on different days of the week which can be found on our website here: https://www.tenpin.co.uk/deals/ . If you would like to discuss this further, please send an email to customer.feedback@tenpin.co.uk with the subject as 'Review - Chichester'. Best wishes - Adelaide
Great clean place- just expensive
Staff were lovely towards our daughter, it was her 5th birthday so they gave us lane 5. We were going to have another game but it was £35+ which is so high

Ĺaser tag with 3 people?
We turned up for laser tag 10:15 as requested early for briefing not seen until 10:35. Found out there would just be three of us in the game and told no refund. Game over 10:55. Not impressed we were looking for a new place for school holidays. DW
People should be warned they maybe the only players, you can fix being on time but I think warning would be useful, If I had known I would have cancelled and taken my grandson bowling instead.

A great day out ......
Had a really great time grandson particularly enjoyed himself, only reason for 4 stars is that we ordered meals (took a while but was very busy so understandable) but one was missing which took another 10/15 mins to come out. Over all enjoyale
