Pros: Tenpin has always been a great place, I've been visiting for many years and it has failed to disappoint, from high intensity shooters and racing to games of pool, it brings a lot to the table Cons: In my recent visits to tenpin, I've noticed that some of the games are £2 to £3 instead of the regular £1, and some simple photos it will cost you £4, also some shooter games don't calibrate sometimes. Tenpin will be a great experience for anyone, just avoid high cost games.

Usually come here for bowling and pool, which I enjoy. It was extremely busy this time, so I ended up using the 10p machines and other arcade games instead. Unfortunately, a lot of them weren’t working properly or wouldn’t take money at all. The place itself is fine, but it’s frustrating when so many machines are out of order, especially when it’s busy and options are limited. That’s why I’ve gone with 3 stars.

Great visit to see the family, such a great location, with a big arcade area to keep the kids entertained, along with other cool areas, pool tables, these amazingly designed escape rooms and of course bowling. Great evening out.

A nice establishment, however was horrified when trying to relieve myself using the toilets, I walked into the first of 3 cubicles and the first thing I noticed was faeces on the toilet lid, not the seat which I admit is a bit strange, but to have that on the lid is horribly impressive, I then moved to the second cubicle and there was a plastic bag and two bottles shoved into the toilet, how this was mistaken for a bin is beyond me, but anyhow I moved to the last cubicle as my last chance at salvation was at stake, only to find the seat bludgeoned with sick and enough urine on the floor that I accidentally went ice skating. The toilets should be monitored more closely, but overall a good experience despite not reaching satisfaction

Arcade to play with kids and also adults. Is a big space and you can choose between a good amount of games. As arcade you know that your money will fly really quickly, but your children’s only will have this age once, so for them is okay come. The staff is not the most friendly but is okay, and also the people sometimes can be so rude and don’t respect the queque or your time, but you can’t manage how the people act. But otherwise it’s fun, just think in one budget before go, and you only will spend how much you have ready in advance.
