Kids always enjoy bowling

Kids always enjoy bowling. We did the Thursday deal - £10 per person for 2 games and a burger and fries. The burger and fries were pitiful. Very basic but didn't expect much more for the price.

Staff wasnt interested in helping.

Staff was very slow. Bolwing machine had an error and after requesting help 4× and being ignored despite staff stood around not doing anything/serving anyone etc. When someone finally came to reset the machine had to be reminded that we did also infact order drinks. Rubbish/spilt drinks etc on floor.

We all enjoyed it.

Great half term offer. Myself a newbie pensioner my daughter and granddaughter loved it. It was very simple to get started which was good as at the reception we only got told which lane we had and no other help which we should have got as we hadn’t been in a while. The food was satisfactory what we expected and the seats were clean and we had a level of privacy without feeling isolated. The whole thing worked well and my granddaughter wanted another round so we will be back again. Parking sign in vital but not offered to us and facing the wrong way. We did have a great time.
