The food deal upgrade is a complete rip off. 2 games of bowling + a drink £7.99 each = great deal. 2 games of bowling + a drink + food platter £10.99 = good deal. However paying an extra £3 each to “upgrade” (£13.99 each) from the food platter to a stuffed crust pizza is a complete rip off. The pizza is a shop bought Chicago Town tomato stuffed crust pizza and each £3 upgrade actually only gets you half a pizza. So in all to go from £7.99 for the games with just a drink to £13.99 for the same but with half a pizza means that for 3 of us I paid a total of £18 for one and a half Chicago Town pizzas. I could have bought 4 of them from the shop for that price. It should specify that the extra £3 gets you only half a pizza!! Also every lane had the bumpers/barriers up and when I asked why it was because they all have to be up or not at all.

Booked 3 standard games , the line was stopped after the second game , the supervisor( a snappy young lady with no manners) was adamant we had all three games . Finally I had to give up as there was no way I could prove I was right , she was in control of the computer and she wouldn't show me .Pathetic ! I was really not expecting that disgusting treatment . I don't think I'll go there any more or recommend it to anyone.

We visited last night with two small children, went in VIP bowling are which was excellent and good fun, most people bowling were wearing masks but when we had finished and in the amusement section, nobody were wearing masks which I pointed out to a member of staff and she did ask them all to put them on but within minutes they took them off so we left as disappointed that so many were not wearing masks .

Visited yesterday for Father’s Day Was lucky to get a space as it was very busy. The service was very good ladies on the desk showed us what to do etc.. I did noticed some adults not wearing mask which surprised me as covid hasn’t gone yet. Sorry but I have to ask - we was sharing the bowling balls with other people which to I did see no one cleaning the balls is it all run on trust? I do think covid restrictions could be a bit tighter sorry

Came today, pre booked lane as family of 4, was all good fun. Then decided to have something to eat. Food absolutely disgusting! Ordered cheesy chips with gravy chips cold to the point cheese didn't melt, gravy thick and powdery. Just look at the photo... Gross! Husband and children had hotdogs with chips again chips where awful. Won't be back. Wouldn't recommend eating there to anyone!

the staff are rude to and they try to get you to spend your money my children found blood in there food it was disgusting and i will not be going back there again

We attended the £7.50 unlimited bowl from 9:30 until 11:30 when it closed. It took 5 of us an hour and a half to play a game of bowling as our lane broke down 3 times. One of the times we reported the brake down to a member of staff we was left waiting for 15 minutes before having to report it again, we were then moved lanes. 2 rolls into our second game, (which only had 4 players as the littlest one had got bored of all the waiting and gone to play the arcades!) they shut the lanes down and we was told it was over. We then asked the manager if we could have a small refund and just pay for one game as that’s all we got to have due to the brake downs where we was told very rudely no and made to feel as if we was in the wrong for even asking. The decor is extremely dated, disgusting rude staff and it seems most mechanical things brake often. The only upside is the drinks are cheap and the youths of Kettering have most definitely worked that out and the lack proper checks of ID. Throughout the game there was serveral what I can only describe as youths very drunk. I pointed my concern out to the staff and was once again rudely told they have all been through the correct ID procedure when for 2 hours we had seen the same slightly older member buying all the drinks for the crew. Will definitely take the small drive to Wellingborough than go to this place again.

Came for the escape room having done others at different places. If it is a new thing for you, you will enjoy it and have a great time, however in comparison to other escape venues it is lacklustre. There is no real atmosphere or theatrics and the room we did was fun but not particularly challenging. We managed it in an easy 39 minutes with no additional clues. Given that the room cost the same as others I have done which have had far more effort put into them, this isn't great value for money. However would be good do do with children as it is not scary, dark or too difficult and it always feels good to beat the clock.

This was the first time I visited Kettering New York Thunder bowl, with my friend who is in a wheelchair. I was shocked from the start when my friend had to go around the side to get into the place, (there are no signs to say how wheelchair users get into the place) but also had no way of telling any staff that she was at the fire exit door, and to be allowed to gain entry. After gaining entry I was then again shocked how wheelchair unfriendly the premises are, we were allocated in lane 13, which was a good job because this is as far my friend could get in her chair. On wanting to order drinks for the family, again I was extremely shocked that my friend could not actually get to the bar, or to the downstairs food area to order, when you are in a wheelchair!! No ramp access. I had to go and do this for her, even though my friend is capable of doing this. I had to ask the member of staff 3 times, to get a ramp so my friend could actually get to play, even though we had booked and they knew we had a wheelchair user in the party. Again on leaving the building we had to seek permission to get the fire door open to be allowed out. It's a shame, I felt my friend had to be treated completely different to how I and the other party members, just because the lack of access of getting in and out, and within the building. For this day and age, it's quiet unacceptable to be allowed to have to be treated like that; very degrading and humiliating. I think it could be something management should consider of what improvements could be made to treat everyone equally, maybe put yourself (if not already) in a wheelchair and enter the building with your family and friends, and see how different you are made to feel and it's not because the lack of space in the premises, it's just badly designed at present.

Reserved a lane for myself and grandson for two games on a sat night. Had a good time and enjoyed it. Car park is in a sorry state,full of massive potholes.Wasnt very busy,around 6pm but found it rather expensive. Two games certainly doesnt last long between two players so decided to play a couple of frames of pool upstairs. The table we were given looked as if it had the same cloth on it when it was installed. Full of pinholes and stains. "Ill take a look" said the lad at the kiosk when i returned the balls after telling him about the state of it. Bet its still the same 6 months down the line. Place could do with a general tidy and in house cleaning. Male toilets! well ill say no more but you need wellies when entering them as floor is always awash. If its just bowling you looking for and a pint then its suffice, as its looking rather tired now.
