Great gift idea

If you’re looking to do something fun as a family this place is great. The best bowling place I’ve been to. The fact they have a DJ is great. Food is worth the money especially the pizza really tasty and to end the night the kids loved having a go on the arcade games which normally I think are a rip off but these have loads of new games I’ve not seen before plus they wasn’t expensive and you won tickets and didn’t need thousands just to win a lollypop. Really would recommend definitely will be bad again even tho we have closer bowling arcades this is worth the travel

Very good gift

I received vouchers from work as a gift. I used them for theatre tickets to see the musical Back to the Future. It was wonderful and the children were delighted, but when ordering the tickets, I entered the wrong email address, and Red Letter Days sent them to the wrong address. I tried to explain this numerous times and spent hours talking to customer service, but unfortunately, no one could help me. A terribly unpleasant experience. I had to explain everything only at the theatre under stress.Terrible customer service!!!
