Spinners Crazy Golf & Bowling in Reading

Summer was awesome. We had a fun night but her Service made it feel more special.

Went here 8 Dec for bowling booking 1pm under a friend's name. the employee (man with blonde long hair) was extremely rude. The balls got stuck and weren't travelling into the rack correctly. We had picked them up several times and put them into the rack but after doing this multiple times we gave up as what's the point when it keeps happening. The employee then storms over and made the very passive aggressive comment of "thanks for doing this yourselves".... Well 1 because a paying customer shouldn't have to pick up bowling balls from the return line 😒

Electronic darts was great fun. There's music but you can still have a conversation, which is great

Great place. Lovely bar staff. But especially Leah, was extremely polite and always ready to help.

I recently visited Spinners and had an incredible experience! The atmosphere was welcoming and lively, and the service was top-notch. Scarlet, in particular, was extremely helpful and kind throughout my visit. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, from recommending the best options to ensuring we were well taken care of. Her friendly attitude truly made our experience memorable. I can’t recommend Spinners enough—great place, great vibes, and amazing staff. Thank you, Scarlet, for making our visit exceptional!

Really enjoyed the shuffleboard and the darts. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Athena is amazing made my night xx

Leah was really helpful great service and a great experience

We went for our Christmas do. As a large group, we were split into 2 groups for darts and golf and everything was explained. While playing the games, food kept turning up. The food isn't anything fancy but it is tasty and hot. They also catered well with dietry needs. The bar service was quick with good measures for our tokens. Everyone had fun especially the golf and at the end there was still more food coming. A great afternoon which all of us enjoyed. Thank you Spinners for arranging a great event

We had a great time, nice venue, darts were a right laugh. The service was awesome the bar staff were a good laugh, Leah was awesome

Have been here twice; first for crazy golf during the day, and the second for darts in the evening. The golf is an incredibly cramped affair. I feel like they've tried putting too many holes into a small space. We ended up having to balance on boundaries, course edges and the space room between the holes whilst awaiting turns - not ideal. The holes themselves were good, but overall a bit disappointed with the cramped layout. On the second, separate occasion ~10 of us played the interactive darts. This was really good as there's a lot of different games to play so we a) didn't get bored of them and b) they were really good games. We ordered food at the darts, quality was good. However, our session was 8-10pm and the kitchen closed by 9pm. None of the staff informed us of this and so we had barely ordered enough food for half the group by this point. We had a lot of hungry people who needed to grab some dinner afterwards. Disappointed with team working there didn't let us know prior to the kitchen closing and we'd have ordered a lot more food in time.

Great fun for a group of people or a date. Decent prices. Good night out🤪

Julia was the best! Lovely, helpful and friendly!

Our bartender (Emma I believe her name was) was amazing our drinks were amazing.

Keris looked after us and the afternoon was amazing!!! Good for the team to get out in a fun atmosphere!! Highly recommend and will come again!

Had a fantastic team building day with work, staff were fantastic especially Keris! Thank you so much

Held a team event of darts and bowling, everyone had a great time. Food, drinks and service were all great! Seamless booking process, Keris and Richard couldn't have been more helpful when booking this for 35 people and catering for the few who had allergy requests. Would highly recommend!

Went here for my partners 30th birthday on the 2nd November. The bowling was good but it was a shame about the rude, unprofessional staff. Firstly they were not serving members of my group which they could see had been stood at the bar waiting for ages but would serve other people coming up to the bar. Secondly we bought in a cake. We were told we could light candles etc, we lit them and started walking and singing with the cake for a male member of staff to come aggressively running over shouting no flames, no fire and flapping his hands around like a headless chicken. He then blew all over our cake - absolutely unprofessional & extremely unhygienic. I understand they were worried about setting off the smoke alarm but had this been calmly relayed to us we would have blown the candles out ourselves. We spoke to the manager who was actually very pleasant & apologetic. However after speaking to us, I noticed he spoke to security who then was eyeing us up for ages - making us feel very uncomfortable for something that wasn't our fault at all!

This place is fantastic. The games on offer are so much fun, we played mini golf and shuffleboard with the kids and we all had a brilliant time. The staff were excellent, Julia, the bar manager and the bar staff were so friendly and we just had the best time as a family, thank you Spinners!!

It is the most stupid website to booking any game. You have to choice how many people are, what time would you like to play and then a game type and just after that system going to check, and if no available time for this game you have massage about “sorry, you have start again from beginning” instead of just show me available time!

The place has great potential but unfortunately it seems to be run by very young and incompetent staff. We had a large group booked in for the evening, we were planning to get food and play mini golf. We ordered drinks and one of our party with medical issues queried about food, staff said they couldn’t take it on the course, we highlighted the medical need but they essentially said we had to get on the course as they had other groups, we stated we would just have to order after and “hope they didn’t pass out”, at no point did they tell us the kitchen was due to close shortly. There was no instructions given by staff or wifi offered, but we worked out the website for scoring, half way through our game signal was lost and when reconnected if asked for a code to return to our scoring page, I spoke to 4 different members of staff, including what appeared to be a supervisor of some description, each said they had never seen the page before and didn’t bother finding out how to get said code so we lost our score data. After the game we returned to order food, they told us that the kitchen was closed. Very disorganised, no one knows what’s going on, really bad customer service and poor attitude of staff. Owner should really have a rethink and invest in some staff training. Real Shame.

We went for Bowling and darts, and the environment was great.

A great spot to come with family or colleagues

Terrible experience. We booked a slot for 9 people for 90 minutes, and we were kicked out in 20 mins because there was a "private" booking for the whole venue. Wasted time

Seemed like a good place,booked a slot for 9 people, we drove all the way to reading to from Milton Keynes just to be kicked out in the first quarter, because other people booked the whole place, am saddened by the unprofessionalism and ill treatment, of taking an off day for a birthday just to be let down, management need proper scheduling of customers, and all customers matter, they should really should put some consideration

Booked for a group of 9 three weeks ago and arrived today to be told to leave after 10 minutes because they booked another private party being booked for in the same time. They made no offer for refunds and no effort to cotact us beforehand to attempt to reschedule. They expressed 0 care for the mistake they made and were rude our whole time there. Our group travelled from all over the uk for our cousin's birthday and this ruined the day we had planned

The place looked like a good place but I had the worst experience, we had a group of 9 people we booked for a 5.20pm session and they told us we needed to leave by 4pm because they had a booking for another group that hired privately at 4pm and expected us to be out by that time. Was so but we couldn't even go to the 3rd hole before the kicked us out. Very bad.

Felt a bit dirty and dingy, mini golf was okay, not the best, defo not for kids, bowling was so so, whole place needs a good clean,

Quiet and simple game of skittles. Nice for the trashy area

your website is down today - trying to fill in a form for a group bookign so I can get some kind of costing but you get to the bottom and terms and conditions is cut off teh actual webpage so cant tick it and there is no submit button. Tried to call, your voicemail wont let you speak to a human for group booking it refers you back to the website to fill in the form - which as iv decribed above is not working. Pressed two and it it says this mailbox is full ??

Played golf, great fun, bit tough for the smaller kids, but we had a good time.

Worst place ever to visit , do not come here your session will be cut short and is a complete waste of money and time. Beverages and customer service as bad as each other so you could imagine how the food taste.

Came here for an after work event treat. Walked past this place many times and never knew it existed. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and service was good... didn't get to have any food though so I can't comment but for playing indoor crazy golf and electric darts was fun. Hope to visit again.

We all had an amazing fun evening really great for team building thank you

Not worth a visit. Very poorly managed shambles, underwhelming, overpriced and overrated. 0 atmosphere, boring music, design, and lighting for a Friday night. Staff are doing their best, polite and efficient but lack training & management, making service pretty lacking as staff didn’t really know what to do or how to run the show, and lacked confidence. Pizza crusts and litter left on the floor of the (very small, two aisled) bowling alley. Tables were dirty, seating was cramped. “Crazy” golf was sad, dilapidated, and confusingly bad. The course itself doesn’t really work due to damage to the astroturf, chunks missing from slopes, broken walls, and a broken windmill. It’s also extremely small and poorly organised, with no staff around keeping things running smoothly, so lots of groups of people were bumping into each other and getting in each other’s way.

Didn't purchase any food or drinks during the visit however had a great time partaking in a game of Bowling. Easy to book online, and not overpriced compared to some places. The other activities such as Crazy Golf and Darts also looked worth checking out but that'll be the next visit.

Enjoyed mini golf here. Kitchen had closed when I arrived, so no food available. The bar is however well stocked.

Keris was really friendly and helpful. We turned up without a booking and the team accommodated us perfectly

Great night out. Cerys(?) looked after us really well

Brill lil trip for my lil mans 6th birthday today. Everything you want in one place! The mini golf is very small so would be abit of a pain if busy but luckily it wasn’t when we went. Cracking day out. Thanks to keris for looking after us

i had a wonderful experience Lydia was a very polite server and made our drinks very fast and made sure we had everything we needed

Scarlet very polite and welcoming

A group of us went this weekend and we had an amazing time. I would like to say a special thanks to Summer who works behind the bar, she look after us and made our experience well worth the visit.

Great experience, we played mini golf and bowling. Good prices for games, but drinks are a bit pricy. Great atmosphere.

Had an amazing time, such a great place Scarlet did a smashing job at looking after us.

Really good service, we were served by summer who was really nice

Great night out!! all bar staff were amazing, one staff in particular, Lydia was amazing the whole night, making sure we had a great time!! Will be coming back

went and did mini golf with my friend, service was amazing especially scarlet!!

Great night out, Lydia the bartender was amazing!!! Constantly checking up on us making sure everything was going well!! Will be coming back

Great night out, Lydia was great at looking after us, will definitely be coming back

Great night out!!! Lydia looked after us all night and will defo be coming back!! she made us feel so welcome and looked after us all night.

Lydia was great and looked after our group so well. Would highly recommend!

Great place, had a lovely time, Lydia looked after us so much, and made sure we had a lovely time

We went recently, a group from working looking for a fun afternoon...and that is exactly what we got!! Great venue, brilliant staff and perfect for an afternoon/evening out! We were looked after brilliantly by Summer...attentive helpful and a really took time to explain things well....we will definitely be back!!!

Went here last night and had an amazing experience i was served by a girl named Scarlet she was so kind and helpful will be visiting again soon!!!

I came here the other day and I found the hospitality amazing, even though the prices were a bit out of our budget, Scarlet took great care of us so it made up for it

Great service from Summer at the bar. Friendly and fun!

One of the best hang out spots in Reading! Scarlet and the team were amazing.

me and my family came for my cousins 18th, the bartender Lydia looked after us very well, very polite and helpful. Will definitely go back soon!!

Lush! Summer and keria arent twins!!! They were lovely! Brilliant service

Tried the crazy golf and sadly a little underwhelming. Apparently the hole in the wall wasn't part of the course either.

A family activity of both darts & mini golf was great fun. Although busy we didn't feel cramped like some say.

Great time at spinners tonight. Richard was very friendly and helped our group out. The whole team were great and checked in on us during our activity

Spinners has been great and summer is a great host

Spinners is great, Summer is a great host

Bartenders are great. Good banter, great service. 12/10!

Summer was an absolute great host and looked after us when things went wrong. 10/10 recommend this place

Summer was very professional and made our visit very enjoyable

Great spot, Summer the bartender made our night

The venue was great, and Summer made some banging drinks. Will return

We had a great time at Spinners for our work event! The staff were really helpful and friendly.

Walked in and booked bowling for myself and 2 colleagues, no immediate slots available but did have a lane 1h 30 mins later. We pre-paid and thought perfect! We can grab food first. Returned 5 mins early to a very confused staff member staring at the screen. The staff member went and got her colleague who assisted us and again, blank expressions and literally no information provided to us, just muttering and button pressing. (Something about people already being on and taking them off etc) Both staff members disappeared for around 5 minutes, then went about their duties with small times engaging behind the bar. Eventually the original staff came back and said there's been a booking error and the earliest we could get on is 30 mins later. Then proceeded to tell us they actually turned up late and had just started bowling. Not a huge issue waiting 30 mins but in terms of service, communication etc it was abysmal. Place itself is nice, quirky and has plenty to do. Bowling balls need TLC desperately but it was still a fun game. Cheap and would def recommend but just don't expect excellent service. Guys, if you make a mistake just own it, it makes it better for the customer and just a but of comms will ease the confusion and make happy customers.

Really lovely time with my friends bowling. Great atmosphere

Really good atmosphere! Absolutely loved the food! The garlic and cheese garlic bread is soo good! The golf course is a bit small! But really good!

Had a lovely golf experience. However it was quite small you could easily bump into another group and your golf ball could easily go to the next hole if you hit a bit too hard. All the same it was fun and quite challenging 💪🏾😃 the drinks were a bit costly. The staff were very friendly and the deco and ambiance was brilliant!! Would definitely recommend.

Decent bowling alley, pretty basic but did what we needed!

Bowling was on a really strict time slot and cut itself off at the end of the time period - that would be fine but we had to wait around twice for a member of staff to come and unjam all the bowling balls so we could actually play? I was cut off on my very last go and tried to explain to them that we had to wait for them to unjam their own machinery and they were very unsympathetic because there was ‘another group next’ (it was one go). We stayed to finish our drinks and the group showed up ten minutes later. It was just weird! The floor before the bowling lane is also very worn through and slippery so be careful! Two hardworking staff members struggling behind the bar as the only staff available to manage the bar, the darts, the mini golf, the bowling, and a busy work party - scheduling just two young women to work a busy Friday night isn’t best form really. I hope more staff were rota’d as it grew busier.

Decent place for bowling and mini golf but is quite small and the mini golf is a bit lacking.

Absolutely rubbish place, just payed over £30 for the worst mini golf course I’ve ever seen took all of 20 minutes for 4 of the s to play it, no theming at all. The course was so tightly packed together you had no where to stand and it was over booked with people waiting for a very long time to finish play. DO NOT COME HERE!!

Really good vibes. I've gone twice, both during the day so it's not been "busy" but i like it when it's a little quieter so worked well for me. It is a little pricey but the vibe and atmosphere is great! I've played the mini golf course, bowling and the shuffle board. I haven't tried the food yet, so will defo be trying it next time I'm there!

If Poundland did bowling facilities... Our lane was constantly breaking down, essentially due to the terrible way the pins are set, ON STRINGS. Laughable. Watching the system attempting (and failing) to reset the pins after each go was similar to to those inflatable tube men you see flopping around in the wind outside of a car tyre garage. Not the staff's fault, however you could see how tired they were of having to come out from behind the bar to fix the pins every 5 minutes.

Had a great time with the team.

I went with friends trying to find something different to do in Reading, and it was exactly what we were looking for. Good fun, nice and helpful staff. We'll be back. Da boiz

i had a great experience here with my son!! staff were all lovely and kind, especially Lydia and Julia!!

I went to Spinners a few times and have always had a good time. The service has been exceptional with a special mention of Julia, who was accommodating and made sure we had a brilliant time each time. Will definitely will be coming back.

Don’t go here for the “crazy golf” it’s 12 holes all around 8ft long and so poorly designed, the upkeep around the place isn’t exactly decent either, the ball either kept getting stuck or everywhere was so enclosed you weren’t able to stand within 2ft of your ball and had to hook it out with the end of the club it cost £20 for two of us to play, it took less than 15 minutes and you can’t play a 2nd round as your ball is returned to the bar. The only reason I’m scoring 2 instead of 1 star is we chose to play darts afterwards, it was an interactive board with loads of mini games to play, this was a lot better but again set you back another £20 but at least this lasted for an hour. The female member of staff who served us was great, the “manager” I guess who then interrupted her the 2nd time round to serve us however didn’t seem like he’s had any training in customer relations. I wouldn’t go back, to anyone thinking of trying I’d recommend eating somewhere else before/after as the food that was bought out for other people looked a little worse for ware and again expensive for what it was.

We had a really nice, fun family time. The place is friendly, modern design, fair price for activities, food and drinks. Conveniently located ! We will return!

This slick and fun venue is perfect for dates, family fun or an activity with friends. It doesn't take long to get round the course and strikes the perfect balance of being challenging while accessible.

We played the crazy golf and the area is just so cramped. Disappointing for the value for money and the water feature wasn’t working. They have tried to put too many activities into a very small area which doesn’t work well. If you are a large group you may not enjoy it much.

Worst crazy golf of this type in the area

We had our staff party at Spinners and had a great time, lots of fun and were looked after extremely well. Can't wait until the next visit :)

Don't plan on spending much time there it's not the best course your ever see .

Had a recent trip here after it was recommended the staff are all young adults who clearly don’t want to be there who would rather chat than work and we when we wanted to order food they said we couldn’t as they weren’t serving food which wasn’t stated before we started our darts we then saw another group have food delivered and get extremely quick service

The big problem I have is the lack of maintenance of the facilities. We played darts and golf. The darts machine failed to register approx 1 in every 3 darts. Not misses, for which there is an override button, but darts that hit the target correctly. The golf area is in dire need of maintenance; holes everywhere in the surfaces, the windmill wasn't even plugged in and was falling to bits, the water features have been drained. The area is very small and it seemed overbooked as we were constantly crowded out by other players. Finally, just we tried to order food 1 hour after opening and we're told they were out of cheese. When your menu is mostly pizza and nachos, it doesn't really leave much else to have. Very disappointed.

Been a couple of times now and the atmosphere is really good. Whenever I got stuck with anything Keris was always willing to put herself out and help with anything she could. Lovely staff. Would definitely recommend.

I came here with a group of friends last week to play the interactive darts, We all had such a fun time and were sat at the dart board furtherest from the bar, and even then had exceptional service from staff at the bar. One member of staff, Lydia stood out for me and i had to take her name as she would constantly ensure we had drinks and let us know when our food was going to arrive. All together it was a great experience and will definitely be coming again!

Had such a wonderful evening here!! One staff in particular (Julia) was absolutely amazing!! Very friendly and made sure we had a great night!! Would really recommend!

Played a few of the games last Thursday and had SO much fun! The atmosphere inside was great the staff is really friendly and it's a really nice night out if you’re not into really loud and crowded places! The cocktails were Lovely, one member of staff Scarlet made sure we always had a drink in our hands while playing darts and her service was amazing! Will definitely visit again 😁

Scarlet’s service was absolutely amazing!! 10/10 food and drinks aswell

Darts was great fun, bowling seemed strange as the pins are on string and sometimes didn’t put the correct ones back but was nice to have as another activity. Shuffleboard is ok but better for just 2 people probably rather than a group. Drinks aren’t cheap and the glasses were dirty (on 3 different requests for new ones) which was a little off putting. We didn’t eat so can’t comment on that but we’d booked 3 activities and were all on time and given the allocated times to groups to allow the bookings to run smoothly.
