Excellent facilities which were meticulously clean. Very pleasant, children friendly and polite staff. Onsite snacks and hot food at great prices. Plenty onsite off street parking too.

I haven't been bowling since I was sixteen, I used to go to the Mecca in Blackpool. Four of us go to the YMCA at Thornton everyweek. We have a great time, its certainly changed since I used to go and I'm in my 70's now and there is no writing scores down on pads anymore.

Great bowling alley, not too busy, cool UV setting they use in the evening, friendly staff and it was clean! Only down side is the food we ate from the cafe really wasn’t very good. Avoid the chips and burgers and hot food as it’s VERY cheap frozen rubbish and really isn’t good value for money. Will go again but probably won’t have any food.

Much better than it used to be back in the day, with money spent improving facilities. We like the bowling, especially on glow in the dark evenings. Decent amount of parking, staff usually friendly and helpful. And handily near to Marsh Mill or Hickory's for some good food too
