The place was very noisy particularly the slot machine area. Very poor signs on the machines so our grandchildren and ourselves could ot find out the cost in tokens of particular machines.
Great experience and have a fun time playing bowling there, the lanes were cleaned as soon as they got free after a game.

Paid for 2 games but the time allotted did not consider the time necessary for two children under 12yrs old and one with with SEN to conclude their game independently. Meaning it was rushed and child with SEN felt upset viewing it as their personal failure.

Restaurant area
I have never seen such an untidy, dirty, un kept restaurant area. Although I appreciate it must have been a busy Saturday afternoon we arrived at 6pm and stayed for approx 3 hours, most tables remained uncleared and I didn’t see any staff member make any attempt to hoover, sweep any of the food or litter off the floor or clean a table. I picked up most of the litter/food from under our table and cleared the rubbish just so our party of 10 could sit down and eat somewhere. It was disgusting and taking into account the amount of staff on the shift when we arrived this could have been quickly turned around. I even watched a member of staff walk over a coat which had fallen on the floor with no attempt to hang it back on the chair it had obviously fallen off. Although the bowling worked well and the food was good I wouldn’t return as the restaurant area was absolutely filthy.

Enjoyable visit, BUT.......
Efficient staff member on front desk. I had ordered on line so she was quickly able to direct us to the allotted lane to begin bowling. The only disappointment was regarding the games machines in an adjacent area. One of these asks customers to spin a wheel and depending on the prize, then gives tickets which can be exchanged for sweets/toys etc. Every time we have used this type of machine it always fails to give the full amount that has been won. My grandson told a member of staff about the problem and stood by the machine, but no one came to sort it out. It's definitely not a one off issue as it has happened on our last 3 visits. Once again spoiled the trip for my grandson.

One game of bowling and 1 hour…Nottm
One game of bowling and 1 hour kareoke just over £100 (6 people). It was very cold inside the evening we went and unfortunately the food was cold and a little like cardboard! It wasn’t ready before our bowling game started so staff kindly agreed to bring it to us but something went wrong and staff said they hadn’t got the message. The team were doing their best on a busy evening

Bowling is great but the seating is naff if you’re expected to eat and play. No space for food to go while playing if there’s more than 2 players.
Also the bathrooms always stink like they have never been deep cleaned

Honestly I’m not sure I’ll return
Honestly I’m not sure I’ll return. Booked a family ticket and needed to add an additional student on arrival, got charged £16+ to do this as they can only add an adult.
The venue was cold, we didn’t take our coats off! The lanes are still segregated with Perspex screens from Covid and the seating per lane only accommodates 3people meaning half our party were stood up for the whole 2 games. The balls got stuck and the alert button on the electronic screen did not send anyone to help and we had to seek out a member of staff to rectify this. Drinks were served from bottles and no glass or ice accompanied them, without us having to ask.
