Tenpin
The new layout of the venue is nice and to have a venue which has other activities is nice. Although I did find the service very slow, atmosphere felt chaotic and loud.
Booked online for one game of bowling.
I like that it's free parking when visiting the venue.
The venue was very busy.
The service I found slow as only 1 person serving drinks/food, so had to queue for 15 mins before I could get served.
Also on checking in had to wait for 15 mins to be able to check in, again only 1 person at the till.
When queuing not sure which queue was for what as there were a few lines of people. Would be helpful if there were signage for checkin, bar etc.
It was busy as it was half term and it was raining, I found the atmosphere to be loud and it felt very chaotic, my daughter and another child that was part of my party was feeling overwhelmed.
The drinks and activities are pricey, for example £10.00 for 30 mins darts, £25.00 for 30 mins karaoke, just to mention a few which we enquired about.

Hello Exeter,
Thank you for taking the time to rate Tenpin Exeter 3 stars. Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you highlighting the venue's layout and variety of activities.
We're sorry the service was slow, and the atmosphere felt chaotic. We'll review staffing and signage, especially during busy times like half term, to improve the experience. We also acknowledge your comments on pricing.
All the best ~ Laura
Nice refit
Nice refit. More space with new attractions Darts, Softplay, Laser Tag and Escape Rooms. Good discounts available to make it more affordable and valve for money. Only let down was the wait for drinks at the bar, hopefully once new staff has settled in this will improve as it wasn’t particularly busy.

Great games, staff verg slow
The new decor and arcade are great! The bar looks really good and the bowling is very fun. However, there was only one cider and one lager on draft, everything else was unavailable and the staff were extremely slow at serving. One point there were 5 members of staff behind the bar but only one person serving whilst the others were watching? So overall organisation wasnt great but the venue, games and atmosphere were fab!

New done up venue looks amazing
New done up venue looks amazing, but had 6 new lanes and no new balls, so not enough balls for each lane. Had to use 2 balls for 6 kids.

Great time will be back
Great time, lots of new attractions we loved it. Could tidy up the eating area a bit quicker and come to the lanes when you push for help as had to go to the reception area for support but guess just taking a while to get used to the new set up. Will definitely be back. Only thing is it is really noisy so perhaps the down the machines a bit

A great afternoon playing an escape room
Had a great afternoon playing one of the Escape Rooms. Our hose was very friendly and helpful and the room it self was very well thought out and presented. Stayed to play in the arcade for a bit after which was very fun. The venue itself was clean and fun. Would certainly go back again.

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Great improvements to the site namely the toilets and the additional attractions.

No a pleasant experience for small children…
Went to the soft play and we ordered food, it took 45 minutes to get the food, no warning when we ordered. Chased it up twice and was told they didn’t have enough staff! Excessively noisy for small children.

Tenpin Exeter has finally revamped😂
Tenpin in Exeter has just revamped and they've gone for looking tired to a modern sleek place to have fun. The bowling is still the same but with extra lanes and they've added games to the arcade (I love arcades) as well as other new activities. So far I've only tired the augmented darts but in future I can't wait to try their karaoke booths, laser tag and escape rooms. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a fun night out with friends or family, this is the perfect place to go. Prices are reasonable and booking is super easy which I recommend doing for peak times.

Arcade was pretty fun
Arcade was pretty fun, escape room was quite cool as well very challenging. Burger was lacking, for the price you would expect lettuce/onions rather than a plain bap. Nachos were great

A few teething problems
The remodel of the Exeter branch is great!! So much more to do & keep you engaged. However, it was incredibly busy (as expected) but we had to queue for over 30 minutes just to get a drink as only 1 staff member was working the bar.
The bowling side is a little more frustrating too now. Where the balls were on racks before, now you have to go up & down all the other lanes asking bowlers for balls?? Was a little annoying to go get them and then constantly tell people that we are using them. The racks worked so much better before.
I’m hoping it’s all teething problems that can happen to a remodelled branch?? I’m sure it will improve and get better.
