Although the kids had a good time at Tenpin Braehead the overall experience reflects this rating.
The venue was so understaffed. Granted it was during the school holidays but I feel provisions should be made for such times.
The queue was huge on getting there, we arrived in plenty of time which I was glad about and we go onto our lane at our allotted time.
The kids had a burger and chips as part of the deal I bought and when it arrived it was hard and cold. I ordered a coffee through the QR code on the lane 15 minutes into the game of bowling only to have to go to the bar myself after the game to collect this order.
We managed to get a ball stuck on the lane. I pressed the call service button and after around 10 minutes I had to go and find someone to help us. She arrived a few minutes later and apologised for our wait.
A few of the machines I lost money on due to malfunction and rather than wait in the massive queue I cut my losses.
The kids won some tickets but again I refused to wait in the massive queue and gifted the tokens to another family with the promise to my kids I would go buy them a small toy to make up for it.
Overall my experience with 4 young kids wasn’t a great one. Thankfully I managed to shield the kids from my annoyance and they had fun.
I would return to Tenpin but in the hope that there was more staff on the floor for the volume of customers they have in a day. Hats off to the staff though they were so overworked and apologetic at every interaction with them.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your recent visit. We are truly sorry to hear that several aspects of your experience, particularly the staffing levels and the quality of your food order, did not meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it must have been to encounter long queues, cold food, and issues with service, especially when trying to manage four young children.

We acknowledge your comments about the understaffing during school holidays and the impact this had on various services, including your coffee order and the ball retrieval. We also regret that you lost money on malfunctioning machines and were unable to redeem your children's tickets due to the queues. It is reassuring to know that our team members maintained a polite and apologetic demeanor.

Your insights are invaluable as we continuously strive to improve our operations. We are reviewing our staffing provisions for peak times to ensure a smoother and more enjoyable experience for all our guests. We hope to see you again in the future. Best wishes - Clare

Great Family Day

We had a great time at Tenpin! We booked bowling and then interactive darts. The staff were fantastic and noticed we would have quite a gap between the activities so offered to sort it which was really appreciated. This was honestly the perfect family day. Thank you.
We only booked half an hour for the darts and next time we will book for longer as the kids really enjoyed that.

The bowling venue and experience was excellent. However, the food was horrible as it was covered in grease. Rustler burgers are nicer than the burgers served here. The staff were also passive aggressive as they challenged for ID after already serving me alcohol. Overall it was decent but we wont be back.

Was overcharged for bowling then once I realised I went back and let the staff know to be told they operate a no refund policy even though it was their mistake to charge for 3 people instead of 2
