We've got laser tag in our 4D arena, private karaoke rooms (sing like nobody's watching), escape rooms for the problem-solvers, soft play for the little ones and a full arcade. Hungry? Our kitchen serves burgers, loaded fries and pizzas, with a fully licensed bar pouring cocktails and pints while Sky Sports and TNT play live.

First time visiting and left really disappointed!
Ordered food and waited 1 hour before going back to the bar and asking where it was. We was told they where having issues with the till sending the orders to the kitchen. No apology of any kind, We had to ask for a refund as we were booked onto an activity meaning we had to skip dinner. Not great with 2 children.
The activities we did were fantastic though and the venue was super clean and fresh.

Very average experience

The actual venue is clean tidy and very contemporary. I thought the bowling alleys were very good if not a tad expensive compared to others in the area. The pool tables were mostly uneven . (Tried 3) . The food was basic but ok for the type of venue.

The bowling and the fun was great and so was the price but the only moan I had was the staff are very slow! We waited at a packed bar with only 1 man working and 3/4 other staff just stood there talking and not really doing anything yet there was 2/3 tills that could of been manned to take the pressure off the que and the 1 actually working. But other from that it was a great night

Ok but could do better

Great place for the kids. The customer service and food service is poor. Run by young people who aren’t experienced when asked questions or politeness. Food took forever to come and the quality wasn’t good enough.
