Good price for a package of a game and a burger. 1 game was enough for the kids and it worked out well as a reasonably priced activity. The kids liked being able to take their picture to be displ... See more

Love going to Tenpin as it is cheaper than Hollywood Bowl and the standards are still great and good deals to get a burger with a game! Kids enjoyed it!

Good bowling, good value!

Love coming to this bowling as it's good value for money and my son loves the arcades as well.

I'm giving this a 4 star as the day we visited (Mon 25th May) it wasn't very busy, we ordered drinks and food via the code at the lane however it took 20 minutes for our drinks to arrive and by the time our second game started we were still waiting for our food.

When I asked at the bar they said they didn't have an order for food but when double checking the system it was there, they had just forgot about it. Bit of a shame that when the food finally arrived we had nearly finished our second game and then had to continue eating at one of the tables at the bar. Next time I won't be using the code to order online.

Quick & Easy

Quick and easy setup on arrival, only downside was ordered drinks to lane but didn’t turn up after 20 mins so had to go bar and collect ourselves.

Disappointed

One member of staff was left on her own at 5pm when we came to do check ins, take food out and do drinks. The drinks we ordered took 40mins to come because of this which wasnt her fault. The areas were quite untidy but with a lack of staff I'm not surprised.
We hadn't finished our game when our time ended so the screen just cuts off and play stops without a warning so no idea what the scores were which is disappointing when you take children to play

Quick check in

Quick check in, albeit we were slightly late due to an unexpected overrun of time on the Karting experience.
Easy to set up players & lanes
Food can be ordered directly from lane QR code.
Prompt arrival of food but the Champion Burger was not the best, flavourless & the bun was bland.
Bowing great, plenty of bowling balls allocated.

It was lovely and fun just quite pricey for a family because the lady taking our money said she couldn’t give us the deal because it was a bank holiday. But then gave many others the deal
