My 8yr old son & I visited your Kingston location on the afternoon of 29/7. At the start of our second game of bowling, he dropped a ball on his toe. He's fine, but was shocked and in a lot of pain. Y... See more

We were checked in quickly and were able to start ahead of our time slot. It was good fun and the food was good. The only grumbles I have is when our food was served, it was just plonked down with noone bothering to tell us it was there and the other thing was the balls kept getting struck which caused a storage when bowling

Absolutely terrible experience
Absolutely terrible experience. Staff were utterly useless. Took 3 staff members to try and get a simple food order right. Quarter of the food arrived which we then had to chase staff for the rest of the order 30 minutes later. When the food did arrive it was absolutely disgraceful. One order was a margarita pizza which had the tiniest sprinkle of cheese on it. Ordered cocktails which the staff did not know how to make even though it’s on their menu. Our assigned lane had a broken light over the pins so we were moved to another lane only to look back later and see another family put onto our original lane with the light still broken over the pins. Minimal selection of bowling balls. Will never go to a Tenpin venue again!!

Really poor service
Really poor service. Nearly 60 quid and had to wait more than half an hour for a lane. Would have been longer if hadn't complained. Not a great experience at all

We always have an amazing time at Ten Pin Kingston, we go fairly regularly.
Unfortunately this time wasnt so good... we had to wait 20mins for our lane because previous people were still on it, which is absolutely fine, things happen. When I went back after 20mins, I had to queue even though there staff doing nothing, eventually I called someone over only to be told that im late for my booking so time will be shorter.
Explained that we were in fact early for our lane, and were told we had to wait, which the staff member shrugged at then gave us our lane.
Lots of staff doing nothing isnt good for business
ON AN EVEN BETTER NOTE, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SPEEDY RESPONSE IN REPLY TO THIS AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR APOLOGIES!!! WE WILL BE BACK FOR A VISIT 6TH JANUARY 2026 💯❤️😘
