The service received didn’t match the purpose of the booking
We booked online as a team specifically so we could compete against each other. Unfortunately, we had to wait a long time for lanes to become available, and when lanes were eventually assigned, our group was split across lanes that were far apart. This defeated the purpose of our booking, as we were unable to compete together as planned. We were disappointed that the booking could not be accommodated in a way that allowed our group to enjoy the experience we had booked

Hi there, thank you for leaving a 3* review of Tenpin Dudley. We are very sorry to hear that your recent experience did not meet your expectations and we do apologise regarding the long wait time for the lanes to become available. Please note that your actual bowling lanes are assigned upon check-in and during busy periods it may not always be possible for separate lanes to be next to each other. Nevertheless, we hope you will consider visiting us again on a separate occasion at some point in the near future. Best wishes-Leila

Olivia was very professional and helpful with a very empathetic demeanor, as we had two SEN children. The facilities were good and the food was good. My wife claimed that the onion rings were the best she had ever had. The kids enjoyed their nuggets and burger. They thought the pizza was exceptional.

We had a right laugh
We had a right laugh, although I came last most of the time and my daughter was better than me. She put the sides up for me in the end to help, which was really kind.

The staff were very helpful.
The staff were very helpful.
Unfortunately the fuse went off in the karaoke room so the lights turned off, scaring my niece who has sensory issues. The manager spoke very kindly to my niece who was too scared to go back in and she asked if we would like to do bowling instead. Then she asked which lane we would prefer out of the 2 quietest lanes. She was very considerate and my niece ended up having a lovely time. This was the Dudley location.

Software issues…
The software was causing the lanes to foul so we had to wait for that to be resolved and balls kept getting stuck and the pins weren't being collected on each throw meaning we had to bowl twice with the pins down. No offer of any recompense for our time wasted. The venue was dirty and no pleasantries when delivering food and drink to the booth.
