Hello, thank you very much for leaving a 4* review of Tenpin Coventry! We are pleased to hear that you had a great time. However, we are sorry to hear that it felt too hot. Our Coventry venue has air conditioning in the main area and karaoke booths and so we will be sure to make the team aware that is was still feeling too warm. In the meantime, we do hope you will still consider visiting us in the future and we look forward to welcoming you back! Best wishes - Mel

Could be brilliant just isn't unfortunately

Coventry tenpin is a gold mine with all the activities under one roof. You could literally spend a good part of your day there.
It's just a shame the staff/place is so unorganised.
Food orders took ages to come out even after revisiting the staff members as it had been 20+ minutes no one could tell us where our order was or if it was coming anytime soon. When it did come out the staff had 0 clue about what it was and where it was supposed to go.
Unsure if Coventry is understaffed and that's the issue because at times, no one was on the bar or the reception but there were no staff in sight anywhere.
Before coming we were informed about how things worked and the food offering but when we arrived it was nothing like was mentioned and the food offering was totally different.

Overall everyone still had a good time there and I would return but only for an activity and we would skip the food and go somewhere else

Playing Tenpin is very good. But the prices without student offers is a bit higher.

soft play coventry

Attended soft play coventry
Unfortunately stayed under an hour due to the intense heat & sensory overload. I understand all the different experiences you offer. Having the soft play next to all the gaming, slot machines didn’t make it a pleasant experience with a 2yr old & heavily pregnant mum.

Kids laser tag party….

Kids laser tag party was supposed to start at 16.30 and due to not having enough staff had to wait until the 17.00 staff started so didn’t actually start 17.10.
This caused kids to become restless and annoyed and hungry. This then had a knock on with parents coming to collect thier children before the party had finished so ended up with kids missing ongoing swimming lessons. This was really unprofessional and a really disappointing party.

Very disappointing experience overall…

Very disappointing experience overall i’m coventry Tenpin . The only member of staff who was polite and welcoming was Georgia .
I’ve visited twice now, and on both occasions, the rest of the staff came across as rude, unfriendly, and uninterested in helping customers.
We also ordered pizza, but it took an extremely long time to arrive. When we asked how long it would be, no one could even provide an estimated waiting time, took over 35 minutes !

The most frustrating part was the escape room. We waited around 18 minutes for a member of staff to come and open the room and start the game, but that delay was taken out of our booked session. We paid for a 60-minute experience but only got around 42minutes. When we raised this with the staff, we were simply told they were busy. That may explain the delay, but it doesn’t justify charging customers for time they didn’t received especially when we were still expected to leave as soon as our shortened session ended.

Overall, the customer service was poor, and I wouldn’t recommend the experience based on how we were treated

Couple of issues

Had to change lanes as the barriers got stuck down when we needed them up, walked a mile to reception to report this. Ordered drinks by our lane using the app and they forgot one drink so i had to walk a mile back to the bar to get it. When you are at the furthest lane and things arent going well, the walk to reception right at the furthest point at the back of the building is so frustrating. They need another point of contact at the entrance that can communicate with reception to make the experience better. This was coventry. Bowling itself was great, just a couple of things let it down. It was also my sons birthday so this added stress to the fun.

In my opinion it needs new staff that know what there doing, when you order on the app, your drinks don't come to the table, you have to go up to the bar to get them yourself 20 min later. It isn't as good as it used to be, the arcade is very poor, not enough ticket machines they have got rid of the good ones, and there's only 1 big 10p pusher machine and that's it. Would I visit again, I'm not sure.

A nice venue but difficult for those with neurodivergent minds

We visited for one game of bowling on a Saturday afternoon and there was a lot of availability. The venue was very loud as there’s a lot of different activities and I didn’t expect the volume level there was. As someone with NDs in the group this was a challenge but next time we would be prepared with ear defenders. My main reason for losing stars was that I ordered food with the game booking and this didn’t arrive until only one turn each remained and only after I enquired with a member of staff. The biggest problem with this was that despite there being many free lanes the game for the next customer was loaded onto our lane whilst the food was still being eaten. For most this would just be an inconvenience but again with NDs having to move to a different area meant that the food then went to waste as I couldn’t get the person to eat it after moving.

Ordered drinks to the lane

Ordered drinks to the lane. Took 25 minutes for them to arrive, 1 drink was missing and another was wrong.
Ordered drinks again, took 30 minutes to arrive this time and same iced drink was missing again. By the time drinks had arrived we had to leave.
