Easy entrance, polite assistant and lane immediately available. Like the private seating near the lane, handy for people who are taking people but not bowling themselves. Parking outside a bonus.

I have not visited for several years and was pleasantly surprised. The whole place had a great feel, booking ran on time, toilets were clean and staff were very helpful and polite.

Bowling was great
Bowling was great, the burger meal was a long time coming after we ordered and when it arrived it was stone cold the chips were cold too so wouldn’t recommend the meal.

Inappropriate teenage behaviour
Sadly the female toilets had been blocked by teenagers with paper and used sanitary products. This caused water to flood the carpet, and disabled toilet. Men had to take their daughters into the mens toilets.
A couple were also having sex in the female toilets.
Some traveler teenagers were tormenting and agrivating staff
Staff tried their best with all 3 issues but had no training on how to deal with anyone of them. More support is essential . Staff were amazing, friendly, hard working.

Unclean.
When we arrived our lane wasn’t ready which was completely fine. We got a drink and a seat unknowingly the seats were full of chewing gum which me and both children got all over our trousers. Staff was rushed off their feet tried to report it but nobody seemed interested. Then the lane we was given was full of empty glasses & food plates, crisps all over more chewing gum.
