Me and my husband enjoyed our visits here over the weekend. The majority of the staff were very helpful, even if they were busy. However, one female staff member ruined our experience earlier today. We approached the prize section to exchange our tickets and as we handed over our paper receipts, the woman asked us if we knew how many points we had and refused to add them up for us which I found a little weird. My husband told her which prizes we would like and she just stood staring at him. I clarified which prizes we'd like and she acted like she couldn't understand me either. When I asked why she was pretending that she couldn't understand my husband, she said 'well there's loads of Star Wars items how am I supposed to know which one he meant?".

They then took it back to drop in the collection hole. I asked why and he said "so the machine can reset so you can't win again" and walked off.
I know it's a business and they are there to make profits but it feels like most games are not down to luck or chance, but more about getting maximum profits. This all really took the fun away...
Read moreGreat day/ evening out with the family or as a couple and there are lots of good machines to use. However some of the machines were faulty/ out of order without any signs on which was a little disappointing. The prizes in the 2p machines were a lot better than some of the other arcades and all in all we had a really good time. The prize selections with tickets were half...
