Food quality and wait time
The bowling was good but I had to wait for ages to get my food. I ordered burger, fries and ice-cream. The burger and fries took like 25 mins before it came and the ice-cream never came. I have to go with a friend like 15-20 minutes later to the person that took my food order before she (the person that took my food order) actually went to get my ice-cream. The burger was plain with no ketchup or pickle. In the menu, I'm pretty sure it stated there'll be other toppings on the burger but there wasn't for me. That's why I'm not giving Tenpin full 5 stars.

We all really enjoyed our day bowling ,the facilities are great . Food and drink was good and all the staff were good .
The ordering process ,eg leaving the large skittle on end of lane, not sure if works that well as it wasn't very visible to the staff on duty , but still had a great time.

Great service
Great service. Instead of getting food or drink on the QR code, but having a serving staff to take your order was very good. Got the drinks much quicker than on the qr code

Great bowling
Good lanes, easy to use screens. Plenty of opportunity to order drinks. It was busy when we were there, but we weren't waiting around for anything. The whole place was kept clean and tidy, including the toilets.
