Staff needs to be more attentive

Staff needs to be more attentive, waited 10 mins to check in, staff member ignored us and another couple in front of us while he was faffing around in the cupboards !
Our lanes broke down twice, we eventually got moved to another lane.
The place was clean, tidy and bright.

Nice new facility but highly expensive

The ten pin bowling was fantastic, we took my grandchildren it was expensive for one game but the kids enjoyed it they also played some of the arcade games too.
We looked at doing an escape room but would have been over £120 pounds for a 60min room highly expensive especially in this cost of living crisis i would have thought keeping prices reasonable would encourage more people to use this.
I dont think we will be back at these prices

Overall a good visit

Overall a good visit, staff helpful and polite. Really strange that you are "forced" to sign a waiver saying a member of staff has gone through the rules (laser tag) before you go in and have the rules explained. This seems back to front and the staff say they have no discretion when I raised it

Hi Adam
We appreciate your feedback regarding the waiver process for laser tag. We understand how it could seem unusual to sign a document acknowledging rule explanation before the rules are actually presented. We are reviewing our procedures to ensure a more logical and customer-friendly experience for everyone. We're glad our staff were helpful and polite during your visit. Best wishes - Clare

This was our first visit to the Wakefield bowling alley. It was way too warm, the aircon did not seem to be working. I personally do not like the bowling area. I like to have my own kind of booth. Yes I would go again. But my first choice would be your Dewsbury site. It just seems far nicer

Nice but too hot!

Really nice in there, although expensive! Lanes were quite short, but everything is nice and new. Seating areas for the lanes are quite small so it does feel like you’re very close to the people either side of you. It was also far too warm.
