We come here once in a while for a fun family night. They’ve got coin pushers with cute prizes and bowling lanes and pool tables. Nice staff, Clare in particular was great. We ran into some issues with the bowling lanes and the coin games and Clare was quick to help us with stellar customer service and was super patient with us. Hope to come back again soon!

Went there yesturday, it was extremely busy and packed, bearly avaliable lanes, I played on Lane no.8 but it had some severe proplems like balls getting stuck after hitting the pins, pins getting jammed inside forcing me to have a break up to 5 minutes and more, like i say i am a fast bowler even know im only 14 years old but sometimes, i need to slow down my pace to it but nevermind, it just what it is, the amusments was not too bad, but i did win a lot of tickets on the 2p machines and all sorts! But i will return here again soon! 😊

I absolutely love Namco Funscape particularly for the bowling. My children love it here too. It’s easy to get to, rather than being right in the city centre, and parking is right outside which is great.

The only bowling alley left in Norwich without the those terrible strings attached to the pins. Friendly and helpful staff, I've been going there for years. The Aircon in there needs a serious upgrade though.....
