Staffs are friendly. However, its would have been much better if you added a little bit of brightness or light in the soft play for the children so enjoy more and see the surroundings properly.

I booked burger and bowling in the Easter holidays. There was only one member of bar staff on duty, one member on the check out desk and no other staff to be seen. The game of bowling was finished before I got served at the bar for the drinks. I then had to spend more money to entertain the children while we waited for their burger which took an extra hour to arrive.

(Exeter) Loved all of the new additions to the venue!
But unfortunately there were a complete lack of staff, only 1 of 3 we encountered was happy to assist us! Food was basic at best, so overpriced!!
We tried to book a £10 Thursday deal however the website showed as fully booked the time of the offer being active, we went ahead and booked the slot half an hour before, was more than double to price & during our “hour” bowling, all adjacent lanes were empty? Nor did we have the whole hour because we were running around trying to find someone to pop the side barriers up for us.

Place had been done up well
Place had been done up well , but it’s very expensive to have two games of bowling for £56 pounds for a family 3
Some of the staff where quite rude and where more interested in holding hands and flirting with each other begin the till.

It gets very hot!
Karaoke room stifling & air con broken
1 meal came out without chips & had to chase
Flight kept falling off one of our darts for the darts game wasting time
Parking is confusing & expensive
Food was delicious & service fairly quick and staff were friendly and helpful

Half term family bowling
It was a great experience but for 7 of us SERIOUS MONEY ….. I didn’t think this was value for my £96 plus refreshments and the arcade, probably another £40! For this expenditure of my hard won pension I would have expected enthusiastic friendly service. Didn’t happen.

Interactive darts
Interactive darts was good fun although a little pricey at £10 for two people for 30 minutes. My 8 year old boy loved it and got 2 bullseyes!

My only concern is the lack of fencing around the new soft play area. The gates aren’t properly shut behind each child who enters/ exits so there’s every possibility a child could easily get out through the main exit.
