We arrived and was quickly processed and assigned a lane. There were lots of alternatives which could accommodate a variety of age groups and interests, great.

Three generations of our family had a fantastic night of ten pin bowling and everybody enjoyed their food. What a great night!

Drinks first
Nothing wrong with the booking or actual bowling games as we had a great night . I scanned the qr code on the table to order our drinks whilst my son entered our names on the screen to start playing . Half way through and 20 minutes later thec3 drinks still hadn't arrived at our table. I went over to the bar and after a few minutes I got to speak to young lady behind the bar . I explained that I was still waiting after 20 minutes for my drinks to arrive . She apologised for the wait and said that there was only one person serving the 20 plus lanes for drinks that night . Still too long to wait I said and went back to carry on bowling . Within a few minutes the three drinks arrived just in time before we had finished bowling . So if you go to Sixfields to bowl make sure you get your drinks first and probably a couple of rounds as well .

Decent place for fun
Good customer service. It does get quite busy. I'd say they need more pool tables and air hockey tables. They should fix the machines more often as well

We visited again
We visited over the weekend, which we expected to be busy—and it definitely was.
There was a bit of chaos at the front desk when we arrived. Quite a few staff were standing around, but no one seemed to be actively checking people in to their lanes. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it did make the check-in process feel a little disorganised.
Our lane was ready straight away, which was great. However, it hadn’t been cleared from the previous group, and there were still drinks left behind. This was a bit frustrating, especially as we had three young children under five with us.
Overall, we would still visit again, but due to the check-in experience and the drinks left at the lane, we’re giving it a 4 out of 5.

No glasses and some rude staff…
Ran out of pint glasses after one drink (2:30pm).
Group booking placed at the top of the stairs, next to 2 other group bookings either side. Very congested with numerous staff pushing past rather than saying excuse me.
