A little bit expensive but the kids and i had an amazing time. Great place to take for family for a few hours! Staff were friendly and very helpful.

Worst experience!
We booked ahead of time, showed up on time, and it took more than 30min for staff to get us started. Staff were frazzled, disorganized, kept stopping to help other customers instead of serving us and leaving us waiting. It took 3 different staff members to finally get us sorted so we could start our game.

We then waited more than 35 minutes to be served at the coffee and food bar. Not one staff member came to the service area to help. We gave up and bought coffees at an outside shop as they did not serve us.

We then had a staff member literally storm over, growl and verbally abuse us because we had brought in our own takeaway coffees. Absolutely disgusting attitude, screaming at us and leaving our group feeling very unwelcome and appalled.

I explained we were not served for more than 35 minutes and she continued to be rude, nasty and yell.

We will Never come here again. My friends will Never come here again and I will proceed to make a formal complaint to the ACCC and the owners of X Plosion Bar and Bowl.

A horrible way to spend the school holidays with our kids.

We hired out the party room for our sons 10th Birthday party.
Before the party started Nadia went above and beyond to make sure that when my son walked in there would be a smile on his face.
Mikayla hosted our party and even though there was a big group of hypo kids she done such a good job of making sure all of the kids enjoyed themselves.
10/10!

Great fun for the family, even just to go with friends. Great snacks, very helpful staff too. The arcade and tickets could be better. Great birthday parties too. Also pool tables available if that's what your interested in. Fun night for kids and adults. Alcohol available for adults and other refreshments for kids. Plan to spend a couple of hours there for a good time. Not too expensive either.

As a long term customer, I’m appalled at the way my friends and I were treated for my birthday party. The night was entirely ruined and 2 members of the party paid for yet never got to bowl, nor got a refund. Very disappointed in the service and attitude from a particular staff member

The worse service by far. Always over staffed just for them to look at each other, act as if there's no customers and walks off every time when customers need to be served. The amount of times I've even heard them make fun of customers and their appearance is just beyond upsetting to hear or see. Food is so over priced just for it to taste like plastic. Hope the serves gets better!

Tonight at 8.45pm we took the kids to melton bowling place to play a couple games in the arcade until we were informed that because they close at 10pm they had turned off the token machine. We asked the girl why this is and she said management approved the protocol to shut the token machines off over an hour before close because if they didn’t people would just keep coming and coming and they had to close at 10pm. Needless to say we left with some very confused and upset children.

Would not recommend anyone go there, the service is a disgrace. They have so many works just standing always talking amongst themselves while us customers are always waiting to be served.

Great place in Melton for fun. Caters for all age groups. Good snacks and drinks. Convenient parking outside the venue.

Horrible experience! Made a booking called to confirm on the day they said there was no booking but the “manager” could fit us in to then arrive and them tell us only half the people could play. Then said oh no wait we booked you at 8pm because 5pm would have been full. When booking confirmed multiple times for 5pm. Not great customer service manager was making a child deal with the situation. After going there many times since opening. Not a place I’ll be going back to. Which is a shame as we are regulars there and spend a large amount of money attending with friends and family. Trip To water gardens for better service and management!

Had a night out with a mate and his family and my family.the bowling was great fun and having the automatic bumpers for the kids was great. For a Saturday night I feel they could have used an extra staff or so to man the bar. Had to go back to bowling a few time when waiting to order drinks.prices were quite reasonable for 2 games. We will be back again soon.
Update.had a Boys night rocked up at 9pm got on a lane for 2 games the staff were very helpful and great behind the bar. They gave us plenty of notice before the bar closed. Great night

Good fun for adults and kids alike. Good choice of snack food and drinks. Very pleasant, helpful staff. Also some arcade type games. Supplied plates, candles etc for corkage fee which was great as some places don't allow you to bring your own cake. All round fun evening had by all.

Great place for family fun and even date nights. Much needed in Melton as we were lacking entertainment venues

Great place. Not as loud as AMF. Facility to pick your own music, 4 billiard tables, snacks are reasonable priced. I would go back.

New and stylish with some great facilities and bar. Customer service is quite slow and unreliable at times due to lack of staff presence at counters. Overall great place to bring some friends!

Went bowling with my wife and kids on a Sunday morning. It was great fun and the bumpers make it accessible for the kids.
My only complaint is that my wife humiliated me and my 5 year old would have beaten me except he lost interest in the last frame but I don't think I can blame the venue for that.

This is a great fun place for all ages to have a go at Ten Pin Bowling. There are facilities to cater for all sorts of groups with catering for parties available. You can have light snacks, coffee or a glass of wine or beer as well as using the modern bowling facilities which are in excellent condition with computerized scoring. Will certainly be back we had loads of fun today
