The lady on desk was lovely
The lady on desk was lovely, we had issues with the first,second and was finally moved to a third lane. The lane was still faulty.
Ordered drinks to the table to find out they went to the wrong table as the lane numbers were wrong to the table numbers (with qr codes on)
Was a bit of a nightmare tbh, put a downer on my birthday

It was quite disorganised when we got there. There were 14 of us ans they set up 3 lanes with a 6, a 6 and a 2 which is strange. It was a faff to try and change it. Our particular lane stopped working half way through and all our scores disappeared. It wouldn't allow us to take photos of the players either.
Food wasnt bad but with plenty of notice and a pre order, I would have at least expected it to all come out together. Drinks were weird too. Depending who served you depended on what size glass you got !

rude behaviour
Came in with my friend & paid for table tennis, the lady told us to come back in 15 & didn’t give a receipt. we came back 15 mins later & the white lady who’s a bit chubby was very rude to us. saying we didn’t pay for it even after me showing her my bank account to see the money coming out. after she found out she was wrong & that we did pay the sad women didn’t even apologise for being rude & disrespectful. absolutely horrid she was raising her voice at us in front of other customers too.

Letdown by terrible manager
We had booked 2 games of bowling for our children. But midway through the 2nd game it all turned off. Manager explained we had a specific time limit and that was that. She was very rude, wouldn't listen to us when we asked how we could continue to play. The place was almost empty too .
A Very obnoxious lady.
Another member of staff sympathised with our situation and cheered up our children by giving them a lolly. He was very professional.
It however, spoilt our day out at Star City. We won't return. Hollywood bowl is much better.
