The charges were higher than other bowls in the NW that I've used, yet the place is not well presented and the bowling balls are in poor condition, although the lanes appeared to be okay.

Easy to use and clean. Unlike some do it yourself bowling the controls are simple and the best feature is you can take a group picture to use that goes behind your score board instead of the plain bla... See more

Food was very cheap and not very nice
There was false advertising for times and prices of soft play which were not resolved on the night

It was the first day of opening, we were not greeted with smiles or welcomings.
Instead tenpin did not know we were coming, had not set up any staff to set up the laser tag. The woman in the desk was frazzled saying they were short staffed and then ask us to wait whilst she served other people and when she could she would try get in radio someone to come. I had booked online 2 games of laser tag for 6 player. When someone came 20mins later we were very briefy told what to do but no safety briefing or how to put vests on right way. The lady was nice and said we were the first to have booked and only ones got that day. Stating thats why there was no one assigned to that area. The games were good, space small . Sadley the scores not available on first game which we were told it was recording them but went off before the end so we didnt know who won! Frustrating!
2nd game better was able to do teams adults v kids. It was good at £36 for 6 players mid week. Just wish we were welcomed and staff knew what they were doing .
At thed end of first game

The place was a complete mess, empty glasses and food baskets over multiple tables, food thrown over floor.
Ordered food and was 90 minutes before it arrived, asked multiple staff where it was and told on its way.
When the food did arrive half the order was missing and what did arrive was indelible. The burger buns were rock hard, my "ultimate burger" was a plain hard burger bun with a cold beef patty, no salad, no sauce, hot dog with missing ketchup, onions and mustard. Left food and asked for a refund which we got.
The bar staff were rude and ignorant, the queue for the bar was ridiculous, they were too busy trying to make fancy cocktails while ignoring other people! Never again!

Our first visit here, and unfortunately, we won't be returning.
Firstly, it's very expensive. Places such as YMCA, First Bowl, and Level in Preston offer family bowling deals that provide much better value for money. For a family of four, you can often get two games each for around the same price that Tenpin charges for just one game.
We were also disappointed that there were no discounted rates for disabled customers or carers. Most other venues provide free carer places, often allowing up to two carers per disabled person.
To make matters worse, we waited almost an entire game of bowling (around 35 minutes) for a coffee. The staff seemed inexperienced and disorganised, and customer service was poor.
Overall, we found the venue overpriced, poorly managed, and not particularly disability-friendly.

Really good place, can be a little pricey though. And it takes them quite awhile to bring your food but apart from that it's great!

Wasn’t good for a first weekend. Not enough staff. A lot of waiting around. People leaving their posts. Staff getting frustrated and rolling their eyes and getting annoyed. Felt like a lot of people wanted us to just say leave it we will go but things were prebooked so wasn’t a matter of just walking away. Understand hiccups but was just very poor and lots of moaning from staff and customers.

Brilliant place, friendly staff. Only issue i had was the seating area isn't separate for the soft play. I didn't like leaving my bag by the bar seats to check on my child. Also no 2p machines only 10ps. No good for young children who are going to waste most. 10ps don't last

We had a brilliant evening at Tenpin Blackpool. Bowling, singing and playing Laser Tag.
We didn’t want the evening to end.

When we arrived we had a security man come to ius to tell my grandson couldn't bring in his drink which fair anoth but he told him to put it on table and pick before we leave. Anyone could go to this table not bothered about it getting pinched I was more concerned that someone could of put something in it. We didn't pick up when we left.
The noise was very very Loud kids running round, bumping into everyone it was awful. There didn't seen to be anyone in charge at all . I know your going to say it's a bowling alle but the one in town isn't as noisy.
We went bowling when we arrived at the lane, we was on 15, there was food, drinks, rubbish everywhere not on just ours but every one, there was no staff around the bowling. The foid and drinks and rubbish was still there when we left.
My son went to the bar area to get drinks for us and there was people saying thay have been waiting 20 mins to be served. We ended up not getting anything.
There was a few staff on the bar area none of the seem intrested and was just standing around taking the time. I notice one bloke running around outside the bar area nearly knocking people over, look like he was having a bad day.
I gave my grandson some money for the machine disappointing that there all tickets and that 3 ran out of tickets noone around to sort it. The tickets you need for the prizes is tomuch .
We was really looking forward to coming, think is going to be abit of time before we go again. Shame really as were local. And this one is better bowling than town.
