Our grandchildren had a great time.
Lane ready on arrival, our grandchildren had a great time. Good value for money relative to current rising prices and compared to Tenpin's competitors.
Small request, more larger sized bowls please.

Squished
Was an ok experience. Shame lights went off as soon as we finished. Manager should check lane before giving to customer as our chair was flooded in coats and bags from the next lane as well as the empty glasses all over the table. Lanes 5-20 were completely free so why we had to squish around a bunch of students bags was a big question.

Staff were friendly and helpful and bowling was great, plenty of ball sizes available. Karaoke was a blast but the room could do with a bit of a clean. Unfortunately the food was awful the chicken burger was so dry it was pretty inedible .

It's always a great experience
We often visit Colchester 10 pin with our grandchildren. We are guaranteed a lovely time because of the friendly staff and great atmosphere. Plus I was silly enough to leave my phone when we left. A staff member found it and kept it safe until I was able to return to pick it up. Many many thanks to everyone there. We will be back. That's a certainty

Bowling was good and we had no issues with it. But the food was good but butter in the bun and mayonnaise or ketchup would make it more pleasant to eat.
