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.

I’ve been to the Blackpool tenpin about 5 times for bowling/ soft play area and whilst the amenities are very good the only thing letting it down is the lack of staff.
There’s always a queue at the bar with only ever one person serving. Takes about 20 mins each time to get a drink or check in which stops is going back up to the bar.

Tenpin Blackpool..... well worth a visit!
Make sure you check out the offers before you go straight to book a game, we paid £44 for an hour's bowling with a 12inch pizza and some of the best onion rings I've had. There were 4 of us and we got 3 games in....the lanes were great, you can take profile pics when you set up and it even gives you the speed of your bowl. There were plenty of other games to keep us entertained for 2 hours and it was really inexpensive plus the he place was clean and tidy and the staff were really pleasant and helpful.

Lack of recognition …
The members of the team made me feel like I wasn't waiting in a queue to be served when they had already served the previous customer. Very slow and some other staff I asked answered my questions then rushed off.
Not a very comfy feeling!

Pool Team Night out.
The bowling area was well maintained and clean but unfortunately the food offerings are not good, I am not sure where to begin as there was 13 of us in the party and everyone had different bad things to say about the food such as dry, tasteless, over cooked, not presented well and the list would go on. Bar service was also bad with only one member of staff on while others stood round talking. All in All would we go back, yes but only for bowling and nothing else, same though.

This was at Blackpool tenpin!
This was at Blackpool tenpin!! It was my partner birthday and we had her family over but when we got there we realised they charged us for extra 2 people some how and not only that but we was getting burger meals with our game only to have the food come out 1hour and 30mins later and the food was horrible! Chips were cold and burgers were dry as anything, I have them the birthday for the candles and it took them nearly an hour to bring the cake out the staff were okay just unorganised. But yeah I'm so sorry but I wont be in a rush to come back!!

We understand your frustration with the disorganization and appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Best wishes - Clare
Extremely poor bar and food service
Extremely poor bar and food service. We ordered using the QR code at a table and had our food delivered about 15 mins after ordering but had to ask staff 3 times to have drinks delivered that were on the same order as the food.
