Country Skittles in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Visited for grandsons 8th birthday with a few of his friends. Visited many times over the years and how disappointing this visit was. The games shelf is lacking and what is available for much older age group and all very old and tatty, needs refreshing with new and more mixed age children’s games. The arcade area has more machines with soft toys and capsule toys than actual games to play and at £2 per go an expensive add on, also very cold area. Bowling well what can I say the staff didn’t bother to try and explain to the boys how to play or use the electronic controls. The skittles stuck many times, again very cold in here. Food was hot! But meat patties over cooked and the mac and cheese awful. The menu was limited and very little for vegetarians or vegan and yet they had another menu with far more choices still on the desk but we were told not available. Items we did pick we were then informed they didn’t have. We had to ask several times for our birthday cake to be bought out waiting a good 20 minutes. The toilets are dirty and cold Once a great venue to spend a good few hours with children and adults playing and eating/drinking but now needs some attention - heating, cleaning, refreshing and staff training to get back to what it was

Good night had skittles, and darts ,and a good ale to be had

I cannot recommend this place enough. The conscious effort to provide a memorable evening at every stage was a credit to the team and management. 21 piping hot meals of different varients delivered simultaneously under pressure of multiple Xmas parties. Fantastic value for money, plenty of indoor activities to share with valued colleagues I most definitely recommend the grill stone, but if you are looking for a challenge, the 20oz Yankee burger is a must....well done Mathew for polishing off that beast

We came as a group of 8. We had a game of skittles which was great. We sat at our table which was in the outer area. It was cold. The chairs are uncomfortable. I had gammon and pineapple. The gammon was over cooked and dry. The peas were lukewarm and the chips were under cooked. We go because it’s local to us and we like a game of skittles. I don’t recommend the food.

Kids loved all the games and had such a good time. Good was yummy and generous. I'm wheat intolerant and the allergy book was easy to understand. Will go again soon

Food was amazing can honestly say its one of the best fish I've ever had x

Enjoyed a family gathering to celebrate a special occasion. The food was amazing. We all really enjoyed playing Skittles and other games, I definitely would recommend this, especially if you have a large family group. Young and old could participate no matter their abilities.

Just had the most beautiful lasagna I ever did eat! I thought lasagna was just lasagna, but that was divine!

Nice place , friendly staff and lots of games to play. Unfortunately the food was terrible. Ordered a Yankee Burger. It was presented well but it was so dry and tasteless. Avoid the food. Visited 9th October 7pm.

Loved it! Great place for families, groups and couples. Nice informal atmosphere.

Such a good beach location for a game of pool.

Amazing food! One of the best Chicken New Yorker i had so far! Lovely and very helpful staff. Highly recommend!

Loads of families playing We didn't really have a clue what we were doing and it was a lot harder than normal bowling Nothing to grumble about here

Booked here for my Sons 16th Birthday 15 of us...did the bowling 🎳 had a meal the staff where great good value ..excellent correspondence before we went from then. Something for all ages ...

A fun place for families and the food is good too.

Great Night Grandkids Won me yet again lol

We had a lovely evening here. The skittles was interesting, 2 of our children embraced the game and had the best time. Introducing the kids to Yahtzee before dinner was also fun. Loads for the children to do. There were several large parties so the large checkers board and darts was a little inaccessible as we didn't want to intrude on others. I came here a few times over 20 years ago and was great to bring my children here. Food was amazing, quality was fab and the price was more than reasonable. The steak was cooked perfectly and the veggie burger was one of the best we have tried. Only comment would be that the kids nuggets were a little pale and I felt that a place like this could have got the better quality nuggets rather than the standard ones. Pudding was also amazing 🤩 Would absolutely recommend

Great dining experience where you can have a skittles game while your food is prepared so no waiting. Food was delicious with generous portions and service was brilliant. Will definitely be visiting again when we visit Cornwall again.

We needed a restaurant that would accommodate 8 people and 2 dogs. We rang up to check if there was a table and make a reservation. When we arrived we were greeted and shown to our table. The menu is wide and varied, I had the steak, which was cooked perfectly and really enjoyed. A friend had the lamb which also looked and smelt amazing. The meals were freshly cooked and didn't take too long to arrive. The customer service was excellent, with friendly staff, who were happy to help. We left with very full stomachs after some fabulous desserts and a belly full of laughter after playing a game of skittles. As this was a last minute reservation, we were really happy how the evening went.

Visited here with my family and for a birthday treat for our daughter and her friends. The greeting from staff was amazing and told us how it all worked. We choose our food before we played skittles and then food came out once we had finished playing. The food was fresh and absolutely amazing, we had a couple of the specials off the board and they were great. The kids all ate Thier food which is also nice to see. Plenty to keep the kids busy for a few hours with the games room and board games. Great to visit in all weathers and all year round. Keep up the hard work Country Skittles.

Great staff, fast and good service. None of the food is fresh at all, burgers like you would get from a burger van on the side of the road and fish soggy in the middle. Also ran out of the roast on a sunday by 6pm. Would not recommend the food but the skittles was good. Very loud when eating dinner due to the skittles not being in a closed area.

Very fun location. We booked for skittles, played 2 great games then played in the side rooms with pool, air hockey, table football and all sorts. A great place to go for entertainment if it is wet outside. Didn't eat here, and no real ales to drink, but chocolate at the bar!

Came with family that were down on holiday. We were greeted by really friendly staff, orders for food were taken swiftly and then we played skittles. Great fun...food was super!

Only stayed for a meal but the food was excellent and good sized portions at very reasonable prices. I'm fussy so this is a big compliment :) we had the yankee burger and nachos. Both done properly no corners cut. well done skittles.

First time at this venue. Not sure what to expect. On the evening that I visited, it was full of families, having a meal or playing skittles and having a good time.. I'm not normally a person who enjoys that sort of activity, but I found the skittles very enjoyable, playing a full half hour slot against a very competitive family. The food was good. Nicely presented. All members of my group had either steak or lamb. This was served on a very hot stone, so it could be cooked to your choice. Drink prices were average. Service friendly and efficient. All in all, a good evening..

Fabulous evening of food and skittles game. Despite being busy they managed to find us a table in the bar area. Our food arrived quickly after ordering. Staff were friendly and very helpful as one of our party has food intolerances.

Very enjoyable evening spent eating, bowling and drinking, even though they were busy they fitted us in and the food was very prompt and staff were extremely friendly. Recommend this venue 🙂

Absolutely loved our evening here - such a different and fun place, the skittles/food ordering was seamless, the food was excellent and really reasonably priced. We don’t eat out often as a family as the children get bored easily but there was so much to do, loads of board games, a little arcade, darts, pool etc. Can’t wait to come when we visit Hayle again, worth every penny - I can’t recommend this place highly enough! One of our favourite evenings of the holiday.

A great fun place to go. The atmosphere was great, food was OK.

Lovely atmosphere friendly place and good food!

Booked for a retirement celebration for a member of my admin team & they went above & beyond to make sure that everything was perfect! The food was delicious & we enjoyed the skittles & other games. The team have decided that they would like us to return for our Christmas do! I would highly recommended this place.

Great food. Staff very polite and helpful.

Thank you. We decided last minute to go to country skittles, but we get very warm welcome, the food was amazing, the games was fun. That was lovely evening with lots of fun and laughs. Well done

Amazingly friendly place and always great fun! Highly recommend :)

Fantastic evening with beautiful food, fantastic staff . But the bowling was different in the best way, it was original bowling and it made the whole experience brilliant.because the young children had a better better chance

We had family with small children down this week and they found this. We didn't know about it, although we live quite close. It was great fun and a good little set up. We enjoyed the skittles then some other games. Good for everyone, we'll remember this when other people come now.

Excellent food attentive staff, good choice of games and skittles

Great venue for families or large groups feeling informal friendly and fun

Amazing atmosphere Amazing food Amazing staff! Great place for all the family. Such a great evening in such a lovely place. The perfect atmosphere for kids without being overly loud if you didn’t have little ones. The staff can’t do enough to help. Can’t wait to go back.

a great place to visit, good food, polite staff and several different games including traditional skittles to enjoy.

We had an great family get together last night with 16 of us ranging from 15 -59yrs. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, the service was great and well organised. The food was excellent. We have been visiting Country Skittles for many years and highly recommend it to others.

Had beer battered fish and chips tonight. Can honestly say it's the worst batter I've ever had on fish. The fish underneath the very soggy batter was lovely. I complained to the server to be offered a free pudding or drink. I declined. Extremely poor service.

Standard freezer food not worth the money

Just to say we had a lovely evening celebrating my daughter’s birthday with you tonight! Staff were brilliant very accommodating, polite & friendly. Food was great & the selection of games was also a big hit for my family & friends. After our last time visiting was 10 years ago safe to say it’s still as good if not better than it was then. Perfect place to accommodate any celebration. So just wanted to say a massive thank you to all of you at country skittles! 10/10 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Great place Lovely helpful staff Great food

Great food. Family fun games as well as Skittles and several Pool tables. We had a great night.

This place is great! They really made our Grandsons birthday something special. From walking in to having to leave I cannot fault any one of the staff. To be honest they were the most friendly staff I’ve encountered in a long time. Very good service, good menu … all in all food was very good quality and plenty to go around. The skittle games were ideal and the staff are on hand to help, extra games room is also ideal should you be waiting between food and skittles. We will definitely be back! Well done to all your staff.

Wonderful experience and service. Went as a party of 8 dairy and gluten allergies and they adapted dishes to accommodate as all meals were cooked from scratch. Skittles was an enjoyable family activity and the atmosphere and service exemplary.

Nice staff and great place with kids Unfortunately, there is not a massive amount of gluten-free stuff.

Great food, friendly staff and a totally unique bowling experience that really brings out the competitive nature in people. Had a brilliant night eating and playing games..

Nice place to go for a party or something, all i am bothered about is that the sausages are very hard, chips very dry, all the sauces hard to open! Skittles is very fun although, i wish if we want to we could do normal bowling! Ice cream very delicious and would recommend

Always have a great nite here and it's so reasonable to bowl with a family.

Had a really fun time here! They take your food order then set up your game of skittles, then call you through when the food is ready. Went on a dark Weds night in November and it was busy within minutes of opening. I had the steak on a hot stone which was delicious, followed by the cheesecake which was divine. The homemade lasagne was the best we've had. Would come again, no question.

Have been a few times it is great value for money

I’m from the states and I had such a lovely time. It was so so much fun! I’ll definitely be coming back.

We had a great time taking our community youth group there last night! All the meals were correct and perfect for 15 of us, all timed perfectly and the staff were really helpful and friendly. I couldn't rate them highly enough

Excellent good old fashioned family value day out. Food was excellent and staff very helpful and friendly

Skittles, Daughters Birthday Party With Friends , Good Food, and Very Fair Prices. Good For Days When Weather Is Poor But Also Great When Sunny As Has Outside Seating.

Good place to have a children's party.

A great family evening out ,food as usual very good ,service great and great atmosphere.

Cannot fault Country Skittles. We were a large party (16 of us) but this didn't faze them, the food came out all together and was all correct (pre-ordered) delicious food and generous portions at a reasonable price. Staff were attentive and facilities were excellent. Everyone enjoyed the games room and the skittles alley. Would certainly recommend for a meal or just to pop in for coffee and a board game. Will be returning!

We took our granddaughter and she loved it food was excellent as was the service nice and friendly plenty of parking looking forward to going back next year when we holiday in hayle again

Great food, brilliant games to play from board games to skittles, shooting pool and a variety of other games to keep you entertained!

Really good fun and reasonably priced. We ordered our food then played the skittles. Our food was then ready five min after playing our game and was perfectly timed. Tge food was amazing aswell

What’s not to like? Location is great, nice views, great atmosphere. When you step inside it’s so well set out, whether you want to play skittles, or head off for some pool, arcades, air hockey or go get food, play board games or eat, it’s got everything. Suits the whole family and the staff couldn’t be any more friendly. A must visit!

Nice food, pool tables, skittles and more. Great place.

Fantastic place for the family. Food was amazing and the games kept the kids busy until the food was ready .

I had a good time at country skittles, lots of games for the kids. Unfortunately after receiving my food I found someone else's mayo wrapper buried in my salad, which only makes me think that they reuse other people's uneaten food.

Excellent food served together for a large group. Different choices all came out hot and delicious. The staff throughout were lovely and very helpful. Finished off with skittles. A great evening. Thank you 😀

A fabulous place and a great find, especially for a wet or windy retreat. The food was excellent and although the skittles lanes were fully booked the evening we visited, the board game library was fantastic. Food orders are taken at reception and drinks at the bar which is a bit unusual but the queues for both were short on a busy evening and our food came very quickly.

Really nice place. Great service beginning to end. Tasty well prepared food at a very good price.

Good old fashion skittles and also loads of board games to play too! Different and fun place to visit!

This is such a good place to visit for an evening out with friends and family. So much to do, good menu to choose from and a bar to keep the evening going. Staff are friendly and prices are quite reasonable. Would recommend 🙂

We went to play skittles, but didn't eat here

Food not the best but nice place to take your family and play skittles

Our family (3 generations) had a great time here, lots of fun, good food and friendly staff. Plenty to keep everyone amused.

Went with all my family, eldest me 70s youngest 20 months, 4 generations. Great service and atmosphere. The food amazing would have no problem recommending the place.

Top place. Great food. Brilliant for families

Excellent family centered restaurant with various participation games. 4 lane skittle alley. Excellent restaurant, menu available online. Airskittles, pool table, rifle range, board games etc. Advisable to pre-book the combination of skittles and meal. Outside play area in the summer and extensive carparking. Disabled access and parking.

Great venue, very friendly and helpful staff and delicious food 😁

Great place, fun playing skittles, food was really nice to

Great for family or friend get togethers, enjoy a game of skittles before a meal or vice versa, followed by games and giggles. Have even enjoyed a date night with a sizzling steaks for 2

I booked a party for 24 people at Country skittles. The welcome was friendly, the staff worked really hard, the food we pre ordered was sent out hot and all together so we could all enjoy our food together. The atmosphere was great and the skittles was such fun. Thank you

Very nice lunch today as always. Been here lots.

Excellent place to spend an evening, good food and great place to play skittles and other games

Great afternoon here yesterday playing skittles & then food for 14 of us including 2 wheelchair users. Couldn’t have been better & nothing was too much trouble. Food was excellent & was all served at the same time. Would highly recommend.

Lovely friendly venue with great food and wonderful games. We had a great time .

This hidden gem is underrated. Food was amazing, beautifully presented, tasted soooo nice! Generous portions, top quality meat. Despite having no space for desert it was delicious! Toffee pudding to die for! There was 6 of us and every single one was full, happy and grateful for an excellent service and amazing food. 5 Stars ⭐️

Absolutely amazing place ! Warm and welcome atmosphere and great food. We will definitely visit again! Thank you 😊

Had the fish and chips it was slimy only realised after I had eaten half left the rest. Was physically sick 20 minutes later no wonder the car park was empty. Stay clear!!! Love to know there food hygiene rating

It's worth a visit if you're down that way we all had a wonderful evening 😊

Great place little dated on bits but a nice atmosphere and plenty to do for all ages.

Gorgeous Food, excellent service. Very friendly staff. Great place to take your children for a meal. And not bad prices to be honest. 5* from me. Well done guys 👍

I had a lovely meal of Gammon Pineapple and Chips. The meal was lovely, staff were helpful and bowling was fun.

A great place for a family dinner or a night out with friends. The food is delicious, and the place has many attractions for children and adults I recommend this place

We went bowling and had a meal after. The food was not of great quality The oven chips didn't seem to be fully cooked and the New York chicken was dry.

Had a mid-week evening meal in March for 25 parents and students from a local secondary school and American visitors on an exchange trip. We were able to pre-order all the meals. The service was excellent, nothing was too much trouble. The food was piping hot and everyone had been served within 3 or 4 minutes of the first plates coming out. The menu is vast, and well suited to all ages. The portion sizes were very generous and everything was delicious! The Americans were impressed with the Yankee burgers, praise indeed! The lamb hot stone was amazing. Loads of soft drink options for the kids, and a well stocked bar with lots of local producers for the adults. One of the group was 18 on the day, and the team provided us with birthday banners and balloons free of charge and decorated our seating area. After the meal we had 2 lanes of skittles booked for one hour which both adults and children of all ages thoroughly enjoyed. The pyramid skittles sheet was fast and furious, with people being able to drop in and out of the game as they wished. A real bargain for the number of people we had using the lanes. The service was excellent throughout, with all staff friendly and helpful. Loads of additional games on offer too to keep everyone entertained. Highly recommend for large (or small) groups of all ages. Looking forward to visiting again, thank you!

Good, innocent fun and great for all ages

Expensive and bland nasty food won't go again even the arcade is awful

Sure, happy to share...I had to order my meal a week in advance as there was a group of us eating there. I ordered the 16 oz Yankee burger as a main with a shared nachos starter. Both courses arrived at the same time. This was despite us requesting that the nachos arrive first when we were asked by a member of your team. The pattys in the burger were clearly frozen burgers (not fresh), they were over cooked and cold (a remarkable feat)..the cheese on the burger looked and tasted like processed cheese slices... I wont even describe how grim the nachos were... My father in law who had the Katsu Chicken Curry (the only one in our group to have this) enjoyed what he believes to be food poisoning later that night and the next day. The only people in our group who really enjoyed the food where the ones that cooked their own meat on the hot stones.... No one stayed for dessert! We didn't bother complaining on site as we weren't listened to when we asked for the starter to arrive before the mains and I wasn't going to waste any more of my time. Maybe it was a bad day for some of your team, or we were just unlucky. We went to Country Skittles because of the positive reviews we read, but we didn't have a positive experience when we went there.
