Such an awesome experience! It's $19 per person for tenpin bowling and $19 an hour for pool. It's on the 6th floor in what seems like a building that's not maintained, the lift felt a little unstable but managed to get up and back down safelyπŸ˜‚ They played music for a bit while where were there which was cool, they just had to turn it down a bit as we couldn't hear each other speaking. Overall definitely a fun outing with friends

Went there to play pool for a mates bday, was actually fun and didn't have to wait for people to finish cause there are heaps of tables. It's pretty cheap to. Also had to take some photos of the cars

Quiet place for a group of friends. Not too many people, even on a Friday night. Pool, slots, kids' games. Ample parking

The place has fallen into disrepair. The bowling lanes malfunction frequently, and many if not most of the arcade games are out of order. Might be good for pool but do not bother otherwise. The price did not even match the low quality facility.

The worst bowling experience ever. The lanes were not well maintained. It was a mission impossible to bowl straight as the lane tilts to both ends. We played on 3 different lanes but they were all equally bad. In addition, the pins resetting were very inconsistent, sometimes taking up to 5 min. The photo attached shows a round where the middle pin was missing, which was not too rare of an occurrence. The bowling balls were old, damaged and sticky as well as the couches and everything else. Customer service did not do any justice either, perhaps they are used to complaints about the system. On top of that there was no air conditioning, making it very humid and hot while playing. A good waste of time and money ??'?

The whole place smells like urine and mold.
Everything is falling apart and half the arcade games are broken.
The service Is insanely unfriendly, and what I would call, robotic.
Seriously needs some upgrading done.
Disappointing because I remember about ten years ago it was a great place to go.
Has so much potential with pool tables, bowling alleys and arcade games.

Wouldn't take someone here for a first date.

Extremely outdated equipment and decor. Graffiti throughout the venue. Overall in need of a revamp.

You can play pool and 10 ten bowling here. The pool is OK, but the 10 pin bowling setup appears to be from 1980.

This place really needs some renovation. The decor is tragic to say the least. However, it is very affordable to spend a couple of hours playing pool here. The bowling is also much cheaper than Archies in the mall. The arcades are much past their prime so don't bother spending any money on them, unless you want a little satisfaction and ego boost playing the punching machine.

The dodgy lift actually works to your favour as you can get some exercise done while walking up to the 6th floor.

Had an office get together on a Friday afternoon. This is a really old facility with a super retro bowling system. Almost all the chairs were broken, ripped and was smelly. The displays weren't working and you have to call the counter to reset turns. Bowling Balls were so old and sticky. The whole place was dark, depressing and gloomy. The whole place needs a big refit. Worst thing was the smelly lift that was barely climbing the stairs.

Absolutely despicable venue. A machine stole $2 from me and I almost lost my life on the elevator. No idea how this "business" is still in operation let alone making any money. Should be immediately condemned

We celebrated our son 13th birthday. Staff were so nice, they allowed us to use some space for our food and snacks. They were very friendly and accommodating. Great place, thank you!
