The golf experience itself is absolutely great – it’s a lot of fun, especially with a group of friends. That part definitely deserves a full five stars. Unfortunately, I have to take off two stars due to very poor customer service. We ordered four beers. After a few minutes, a staff member came upstairs to inform us they had run out of IPA and asked if we’d like something else. No problem – we chose different drinks. And that’s where things went wrong. We ended up waiting nearly 50 minutes for our order. We asked the same staff member several times how long it would take, and he kept saying “one minute” without any real follow-up. Eventually, I went downstairs to check on our order, only to be told by another staff member that she couldn’t find it (despite the fact we had already paid). I went back upstairs and spoke to the same guy again, but he kept repeating “one minute” and didn’t seem concerned at all. Meanwhile, new customers were arriving, getting their food and drinks, and we were still left waiting. The only person who actually resolved the situation was a Polish staff member we approached later – she handled it quickly and efficiently within a few minutes. Overall, the service from the rest of the staff was disappointing – disorganised, lacking care, and showing very little awareness of the customer experience.

Very good for a beginner like me to do regular golf swing practice with their monthly plan.

Went for a networking event and it was really good fun! The driving range had a variety of games which kept it interesting, and the outdoor mini golf was great and well maintained! I'd definitely go back with family and friends!

The technical stuff

  • It’s a non-demanding layout of 9 holes.
