I prefer to do bowling with bowling shoes on as it helps you to slide. I'm not too keen on pins with string but can understand why as it helps to set them up quicker. I personally found the light show... See more

Disappointing
Difficult booking system and when needing to increase the number of games were forced to move lanes midway through with a child with special needs. This led to upset that wasn’t needed with better organisation.

As a 60 yr old male I could only find 2 balls that had large fingerholes so I could get my fingers in BOTH of which were HEAVY. Tis place obviously caters for women and children, not that it is wrong but more large holed balls would be nice and at least as low as 10 in weight.

Good for bowling fun
Tenpin York is good value and the equipment is well maintained. Good for fun bowling but not for serious bowlers because the lanes are not oiled timber and approaches have too much friction.
