Excellent
Excellent service from the staff checking us in for our Ten pin bowling experience....loving the new look of the York location..not been in over a year. Only thing I would improve is the selection of soft drinks. Sugar free options would be better. Prices a bit steep too.

Nice new facility but highly expensive
The ten pin bowling was fantastic, we took my grandchildren it was expensive for one game but the kids enjoyed it they also played some of the arcade games too.
We looked at doing an escape room but would have been over £120 pounds for a 60min room highly expensive especially in this cost of living crisis i would have thought keeping prices reasonable would encourage more people to use this.
I dont think we will be back at these prices

Good value for money day at Tenpin…
We had a fantastic day at Tenpin Warrington with one adult and two children. The bowling was great fun, the atmosphere was lively and family-friendly, and there was plenty to keep the kids entertained in the arcade. Everything was well organised, and we felt it offered excellent value for money especially as it was less than half the price of Didsbuy. A really enjoyable day out that we would happily recommend and visit again!
