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

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.

We had a really good time, a few extra attention to details would have made it excellent. The manager on duty was great he was friendly and listen to our request. The other staff didn’t really ca... See more

Staff wasnt interested in helping.
Staff was very slow. Bolwing machine had an error and after requesting help 4× and being ignored despite staff stood around not doing anything/serving anyone etc. When someone finally came to reset the machine had to be reminded that we did also infact order drinks. Rubbish/spilt drinks etc on floor.

We all enjoyed it.
Great half term offer. Myself a newbie pensioner my daughter and granddaughter loved it. It was very simple to get started which was good as at the reception we only got told which lane we had and no other help which we should have got as we hadn’t been in a while. The food was satisfactory what we expected and the seats were clean and we had a level of privacy without feeling isolated. The whole thing worked well and my granddaughter wanted another round so we will be back again. Parking sign in vital but not offered to us and facing the wrong way. We did have a great time.

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
