  • "Overall, I feel this would be a lot more fun on a less busy night. It’s all a bit too crammed for my liking."

  • "Really cramped, too many people at once."
  • "Some staff disinterested, and felt like sheep herded round and out."

Value

Pros:

  • "Courses are very short but reasonable prices, staff are cool."

  • "Awesome as always and well priced 😁."

Cons:

  • "Beer average, and compared to Flight Club, no real value for money."
  • "The drinks were expensive which is the only reason it wasn't a 5 star review."

  • "The courses here are extremely unique - all of the holes are made out of junk - and they are so imaginative it's incredible!"
  • "The courses were fun and drinks allowed in the course."

Cons:

  • "But it is dim lighted, but I suppose if you don't wear heels and look where your going you'll be fine."
  • "The holes all seemed a little short too, but there was limited space."
  • "The course was full of drinks glasses, the floors were sticky and ice cubes all over the place."

  • "Need a better system for the toilet and bar other than people just running through other people's games non stop."
