Everything was great except for there being no size 7 bowling ball which meant I had to use either size 6 (too light) or size 8 (too heavy). I've not had a problem finding a size 7 on previous visits... Toon meer

The staff were amazing and helpful. Wasn't sure how to set up the bowling and the lady that served us was more than happy to help out. Also the bowling screen went a bit funny and the manager helped straight away.

Sunday after 19:00 is best VFM. If there is Aircon at Avonmeads, it was struggling to work in the heatwave; little sweaty bowling. Staff great!

Spacious venue but no efficient air con
The venue was very spacious and it was lovely to have 2 lanes next to each other for our large group of 10 to bowl, however the place was boiling! I expected air con in a venue that size and the heat did make a huge difference to how enjoyable it was.

I've been coming to Tenpin Bristol…
I've been coming to Tenpin Bristol since I was a kid, and it's definitely improved over the years. It's now one of the better bowling and entertainment venues in the area, even if there are still a few things that could be better.
The bowling itself is solid. It's nothing groundbreaking, but the lanes are well maintained, the equipment works well, and it's consistently a good experience. I'd probably rate the bowling itself around a 7/10.
The arcade has a decent selection of games. It could be a bit bigger and have more variety compared to some dedicated arcades, but there's still enough to keep you entertained. The games are a little pricey, although that's pretty standard these days.
The pool tables are one of my favourite parts. The tables themselves are in good condition and are always fun to play on. My only complaint is that the pool cues aren't great and could definitely do with being replaced.
I've also played table tennis and air hockey, both of which are great fun. The table tennis equipment was just there to use, which was a nice surprise, although I'm not actually sure if you're supposed to pay for it. I haven't tried the karaoke or escape rooms, so I can't comment on those.
The food is okay—perfectly edible, but nothing you'll be talking about afterwards. Portions are about what you'd expect, and while the menu isn't huge, there's enough choice for most people. My biggest criticism is the pricing. The food feels quite expensive for what it is. Drinks are also on the expensive side, but they have a good selection and the prices don't feel unreasonable.
The staff are generally friendly. They can sometimes seem a little unsure or get confused when there's a problem, but to their credit they've always managed to sort things out in the end.
One area that's noticeably improved is cleanliness. Years ago it wasn't brilliant, but it's much better now and the venue generally feels well looked after.
The atmosphere is what you'd expect from a bowling alley. The music isn't really my taste, but the lighting works well and gives the place a fun feel. It can get fairly loud, although I've been to much noisier venues.
The seating could definitely be improved, especially around the pool tables. If you're waiting for your turn, there isn't really anywhere comfortable to sit apart from a few stools. During the recent heatwave it also felt quite warm inside, so better air conditioning would be welcome.
Booking is easy, queue times are usually reasonable, parking is convenient thanks to the retail park location, and it's very family friendly. I've been visiting for years, and it's nice to see how much the place has improved over time.
Overall, I wouldn't necessarily tell someone to travel across the country just to visit, but if you live nearby and haven't been before, it's definitely worth checking out. I'll certainly keep coming back because, despite a few flaws, it's one of the better bowling and entertainment venues in the area.

Great venue for families, nice atmosphere and friendly staff.
Venue was clean and a nice atmosphere, all staff I interacted with were warm and friendly.
My only criticism was the bar, no fault of the staff working. With so many orders being made both at the bar and in tables there was a back log throughout our visit.
But when I checked at the bar after a delay on my table order they explained and apologised.
Like I say the staff were great, just busy.
