I have been to Top Golf a number of times since it opened and have always had a blast. Good fun vibe, great service, and clear timeframes. An hour wait anywhere else would've been a hell no.

While we waited on a Saturday night, we took the chance to sit down and peruse the menu. The DJ on the rooftop Bar as always was bangin. So, if you're planning on having a conversation with your husband, that would not be the place for it. Didn't help that there were multiple screens of live sport playing. I did contemplate leaving as I'm sure he wouldn't have even noticed.

When my salad arrived, I was struggling not to try and devour everyone else's burgers with my eyes. "It'll be worth it," I tell myself picturing the shorts and singlets I'll still wear while swimming this summer. But as I ate my overpriced lettuce, I was horribly disappointed. Well, it was lettuce with toppings. I asked my husband to add strip's of bacon when he ordered. It needed protein. It came crumbled, dont crumble the bacon as it's to help me pretend I'm biting into a burger. Let's just say the warm pumpkin salad, neither left my tastebuds or my stomach satisfied. That may be because I stopped halfway and couldn't eat anymore. The whole block of Feta was just too much. The size of the chips were made for Frodos half first breakfast, so don't think they'll be a good filler. I also don't get how my husband can order a toastie with a bit of brisket without regretting the twenty something dollars purchase for buttered bread with a small portion of meat. I can make that at home for waaaay cheaper and feed the whole family. Damn you mum.... my cheap ways are your fault! I'm not a huge fan of most foods American, so the menu overall was a bit of a thumbs down. Would recommend eating elsewhere. I have tried multiple items on the menu, including private function options - Mexican tacos and children's burgers, all of which have left me underwhelmed and asking for more sour cream and toppings; they bring out the bare minimum for the help yourself bar. Cookies..... hard pass.

Alright, back to why we went.... the golf. Although I stink at Golf and take pride in reaching even the closest targets, I happily rest in the middle of the 6-person competition (thank you point system). It's a nice spot in the pecking order. That way, I don't get chosen last for the next team sport.

The bottomless fizz came in handy for our camel children who feel the need to consume and store a months worth of sugar all at once. I was happy the drive home was not interrupted by.....'I need to go to the toilet'.

Word of warning to those who don't want children around a drinking culture, there have been instances where our family has been placed next to groups enjoying themselves rowdily. We didn't mind the last time as our children are older now, and we chose peak times on a Saturday night to go. However, when booking a children's party and you've been told you're in a private area for the 12 children, not to be placed in a private area but with extremely rambunctious adults who were dropping glasses at 12 noon it was a bit much.
