Great Bowling. Not so great food
Went on a last minute bowling trip with the kids. Bowling was brilliant-A lot of fun. Food…not so much. Ordered food which seemed to take a while to come out and when it arrived was not worth the money in my opinion. A handful of chips and a tiny piece of chicken in an oversized bun. Kids pizza was burnt so asked for another but had finished our game of bowling and it hadn’t come out so requested a refund as was going home and employee tried arguing with my mother in law. Got a refund in the end but wouldn’t be ordering food from there again.

A fun experience, good staff!
We had a great time bowling at Tenpin Bristol for my husband’s birthday. We were a mix of adults and kids and had 2 lanes next to each other. We then played snooker and air hockey afterwards. Good atmosphere, clean and everyone had a great time. Staff were good. We will return!

Good and Bad…
Four of us played 2 games at Tenpin Bristol. Great fun, we really enjoyed it.
Good …2 games plus 4 Chicken Burgers, £54. Which I thought was very reasonable.
Bad…long wait to get drinks and the chicken burgers we were served, were just edible.
