Puttshack Lakeside

Puttshack has taken the traditional game of mini golf and fused it with space-age technology to create an experience never seen before.

We've visited twice as a family of five with two middle school age children. One of them had also attended an 11 year old 's birthday party here about a month prior, and has been talking about it since. It's a really good venue. The first time, we booked online in advance and arrived on a Friday around 5pm. It was busy, giving a great atmosphere. The music was great and staff were very helpful, realising it was our first time. It cost approximately £60 for two games each. Note that on most days, under 18s cannot be on the premises beyond 7pm. The games are digitally tracked, with each ball assigned to a player. It detects how many times you putt to get the ball into the hole and calculates your score accordingly, displaying all scores on a screen directly above each game. In some of the games (wheel of fortune ones), if you get a hole in one, you win a free pizza or a free drink. The second time we came here, we had lunch first. It was a Saturday at 1pm, and surprisingly, less busy than on our Friday visit. We had no reservation so it was a walk-in but there was no wait. The food was superb. Good quality. I had pork belly, one of our group had beef skewers, another had pizza, and the other two had burgers. The children had milkshakes - an oreo flavoured one and a bannoffee flavored one. They said they tasted awesome. There is a good selection of starters, sides and mains. We did not look at the dessert menu. They have regular putt fries, curly fries, sweet potato fries, a range of salads and a few other sides. All dishes we had were very tasty. The bill came to £80 for the drinks, milkshakes and mains for the five of us. Music was great again. I recall a tune by Eve feat. Gwen Stefani titled 'Let me blow ya mind' for example - clean version ????. After the meal, we had a round of the mini golf (free with the meal, due to a voucher) and we all went home happy. The decor is great and the bar is well stocked. It has a grown up vibe while being ok for children. I would say it's good for children over the age of 8 and ideal for teens and adults. I could still take an even younger child there if I wanted to.  We're all fans and we'll be back.

Intu Lakeside

Reviewed By FFS-what-now - Margate, United Kingdom

We hadn't a clue what to eat one evening and decided to try the Hall a selection of street food vendors, inside one building behind M and S lakeside. Wow, we had kebab from one place, and chinese pork, rice, and dumplings from another. It was delicious, really lovely, hot tasty, gutted we couldn't eat more. Try it if you go there (Mondays it's £5) We also used the food hall at the top of lakeside (different day) and had german kebab, chopstix, wasabi, Thai express and Subway. All of which was lovely and didn't break the bank. Enough choice to keep everyone happy. All in all a good few days and we stayed at the travelodge. Also good.

Lakeside Karting

900 metres long... ten challenging corners... three full blast straights... two daunting hairpins... it all adds up to one of the fastest, most demanding kart circuits in the country. In 390cc Race prepped Sodikarts, you'll be sitting an inch off the ground and hitting speeds of 60-70mph - definitely one of the most sensational experiences on four wheels

Took some friends who were visiting from Scotland. The 3 children were novices aged 9, 13 and 14. They all had such a great time The staff were all excellent, reception (Charlotte) race director (Scott), the pit crew and Marshalls. Everyone was friendly and helpful The karts were superbly matched and when the drivers came off they were all buzzing about the racing Would definitely recommend this and will visit again

Brilliant from start to finish. Kept the kids entertained for a few hours for Halloween,. Very clean through the park from reception to the trampolines, sanitizers every where, every one wearing masks and if they wasn’t they was asked too. Special thanks to Your manager Krystal who was very helpful explaining the process to us as we hadn’t been before, even checked up on us half way through and helped my daughter who was upset when she couldn’t find her little brother. I will definitely be back, it’s great to have some where to take the kids to tire them out during these rough times.

Vue Cinema

Reviewed By CheekyLondon - Southend-on-Sea, United Kingdom

Pleasant welcome, nice comfortable seats, big screen. And now all seats are £4.99 (and I get two for one on Meerkat Tuesdays and Wednesdays) this is amazing value. Of course, it puts the price up if you buy snacks as these are quite pricy. We saw the Yesterday film - it's great!

We had to cancel our three year old’s birthday party due to rules so, given that she adores Paw Patrol, we brought her here for a treat and it worked wonderfully. You must, obviously, prebook tickets but it’s all straightforward and you are issued with tickets you scan to enter (print or mobile device fine). They have clearly thought carefully about how to manage numbers and I think they got it spot on. Everything was clean and safe. It was all well managed and the staff really deserve a mention because they were wonderful. They have a Paw Patrol areas with all the vehicles and the lookout tower. My daughter was very excited to meet Marshall. They also have a Spongebob themed bit with little boats, a Ninja Turtles bit with 4D cinema and a flying bicycle ride and a cafe inside plus stroller and locker storage. We did not have to wait too long to get on things as they diligently cleaned between rides. Lots of hand sanitiser available. It all seemed very well done. We (and our newly three year old and almost seven year old daughter) had a lovely two hours there before leaving for lunch. It’s more a half day than full day thing I would say. Parking was easy - it’s the Quay part of Lakeside and we found carpark 10 very easy. Highly recommended - well done!
