The bowling was fine
The bowling was fine, but we think the karaoke that we booked for the same day was somewhat overpriced, so we won't be doing that again, staff were great though.

Staff were friendly
Staff were friendly, helpful and informative. The atmosphere was great, but the food was dreadful. Hosted a kids birthday party in the soft play and not one kid ate their food, it was cold, dry and tasteless.

There weren’t enough balls for the tenpin. After 10 mins of requesting I received only 2 balls.
3/4 in total and accepted green one all were heavy balls and children were aged 8-12 who were playing.
Than I ordered nacho’s, the food did not come even after waiting went to the tills and asked they said coming. But 5 mins later it did not come. Then a staff member came to check for the receipt. I show them the apple pay receipt paid £8.95 for nachos. In total after 25 mins nachos arrived.
This is genuine review.

Brilliant experience
I had an issue using my 2 4 1 online so went in and the lovely Autumn said she couldn't put this through and to call customer services. She was so sympathetic and lovely. Just before I got there the customers in front were so rude and literally threw the money at her. They were short and just walked away without any communication. Someone from that party just walked up to her and threw her the remaining money. She handled it like a pro and smiled through it. Anyway,I called customer services and the lady on the phone sorted out my issue instantly and booked me in for bowling with my children straight away. Autumn at the till signed us in and off we went to play.

To little staff
To little staff, had to wait to book in and get served at the bar, only one person doing both as far as I could see. Ladies toilets smelt awful, urine and toilet paper all over the floor, no soap in dispenser.

Had a 3 person £10 bowling and food night.
They informed us when we got there (we booked around 4 nights prior) that they had no grill, no fryers so we couldn't have food. They then informed us they could do pizza but it would be a kids pizza and very small.
5 mins before leaving I finally found someone and asked about the food, the rushed back and talked to manager and people and they all looked confused and as we finally left they brought them out and it was two hand sized round pizzas that were burnt and inedible.
Asked for partial refund and was told no.
Sadly won't be coming back again.
