It was a stress free experience, for £9 a bowling game and half price pints can't ask for anything more.

Great bowling session

Nice bowling session. Fun for all the family, just a bit noisy but to be expected with all the playing machines.
Free parking is a nice touch.

Terrible service

Ordered food was missing and the ones that arrived didn't have enough. For example one kids meal had 4 nuggets and chips and another came with 2 and half the amount of fries. They also forgot one meal. Terrible service by staff. Felt like everyone working there were on their first at work. Only helpful person was the manager, although she told people what to rather than actually resolve any issues.

I arrived to be left standing there whilst staff stood in the reception area. I appreciate if they are busy but I think it is good customer service to be acknowledged.

I paid £135 for 2 games of bowling for 5 adults and 3 juniors. We all had to go on one lane as they had messed up the lanes. This took ages and the children became bored.

I noticed the lane next to us was empty around round 8 of our first game and asked to be moved to that for our next game. This was done but I felt they should of initiated it. Not the customer.

It is an expensive experience and to not be given what we booked is not ideal.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. Free on site parking if you park in their spaces and register your vehicle.
Venue was clean and bowling lanes in good condition. Was slightly too noisy with the arcade machines and music, but to be expected in this type of place.
