Fantastic experience: Decent venue

Andy Savage 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: First time attending an event here. It has two free medium sized car parks on the left side as you come onto the site. Be aware that there are several rooms and halls on this site and you may have to walk around the buildings to get to your venue. There is free fast wifi 90mbps up/down.

T GGT 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely venue. Friendly, attentive staff. Lunch spread could have done with a little more. Sausage rolls were fantastic though, never change them. Definitely a great place for corporate events. I would have liked to have seen some fruit juice / cordial to drink alongside the tea and coffee on offer.

Sarah Suggitt 1 year ago

Positive experience: Been at the 100 years of Rolls Royce celebration today. Disco, bar, hot food, quests, games free photo booth! Artisan makers/bakers in the other side, separate hall. Got busier once people knew we were all in there!! A great venue for a party/reception.

Carla Marshall 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you to the team at Rolls Royce Leisure Centre. I hired the Nightingale Hall for a large family event. Sarah took care of every single detail to ensure we had the best day possible. On the day Jenna made sure we had everything we needed and ran the bar with friendly efficiency making sure no one waited for drinks. I couldn’t recommend this venue enough if you’re looking to put on any kind of event. Thank you once again.

Positive experience: Not as good as it used to be, e.g. the burger patties ground beef, now they seem to be some kind of meaty dough. At least the burgers I would explicitly not recommend.

Daniel Bridges 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah and her team were amazing, from start to finish! We booked the big room as we had quite a few guests coming for our wedding reception, the room looked amazing, with all the tables set up, and as it’s coming up to Christmas, the decorations made it even better! Briddie was amazing too, very professional

Dave Scotter 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent food, at a very reasonable price. First visit since retiring in 2007 and even longer for the other people who joined me for lunch. Venue was very clean, comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. Pleased to see that many people used the facility at lunchtime. Delighted to see that the chip and cheese butty is still on the menu! Brought back many fond memories of our time at Rolls-Royce. Final comment: the ham, double eggs, chips and salad I had was, probably, one of the best I've ever had - and I've had plenty! Thank you.

Hi Christopher Thanks for taking the time to review and feedback, we're always pleased to get feedback. Really disappointed that you chose to only give us 1 star, this seems a extremely harsh as we try our best to put on value for money events, following the pandemic people are still reluctant to venture out even for a great tribute. Our industry has been decimated by the pandemic and now the cost of living problems, we are struggling to keep all of our costs and prices in check, inevitably though, our prices will need to rise to keep up with the crazy inflation we are seeing. Hopefully, you will still support all your local businesses during this difficult financial turmoil. Thanks again for your feedback.

Tony Attwood 3 years ago

Positive experience: Went for an evening dancing. All great but for one thing. With the music playing the bar staff couldn't hear me and I couldn't hear them. Thick glass between customer and bar staff is not necessary now and slowed everyone down as we all had to shout our orders!!!

Sunit Dhiwar 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Superb hall, super arrangement, nice service, the only thing to bother is you should rehearse for your AV clips and music testing beforehand as its a very complex mesh of wires.

MARK ELLIOTT 3 years ago

Positive experience: The performance by C Cranston was very good the only thing was that you were expected do drink out of plastic glasses which put a damper on the night So for that fact I or any of our party will be returning to your venue And I will certainly not recommend your club M elliott

John Worswick 3 years ago

Positive experience: Brilliant, I went for covid test

Phil Watts 3 years ago

Negative experience: Gone to the dogs. A fantastic badminton facility for many years, until given to Rolls-Royce Leisure to mismanage. Sports - and Rolls-Royce Sports Sections in particular - are at the bottom of the priority list now, in favour of occasional music nights and conferences in the welfare to bring the cash in. The sportshall is slightly dated but excellent for badminton, though the times of the day in which it is open are reducing constantly. I think its days are numbered. So much potential. Like a Ferrari being driven by Mr Bean.

Linda Davis 3 years ago

Positive experience: Was quite a good Christmas party night and I enjoyed the music. Disappointed that music and the disco finished early due to idiots fighting and we had to go home about an hour before we should of.

Sam Rook 3 years ago

Negative experience: Very disappointed wont be going again !not organised properly not only did we que 20 minutes for a drink to be told card payments only and the back room felt like a mortuary for saying it was xmas soul nite not a bauble or tinsel in sight

Thanks for your reply Mick, we always appreciate feedback, there are no sperate courts for members. I am struggling to find your booking, can you please let me know when it was and if you are indeed a Tennis club member, as you must display a coloured band to prove membership. Many thanks

Jean Fletcher 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son and now daughter in law Ian and Kelly Fletcher got married here on Saturday. I have to say everything about the day was lovely. The venue was set up to a very high standard. The food was very nice. We had afternoon tea in the afternoon and a hot meat cobs + fries in the evening. A lot of guest said it was lovely and made a nice change. We were very fortunate with the weather which the guests and children were able to take advantage of and be outside in the pleasant surroundings. There is a decent size dance floor also. A big Thankyou to the staff who worked hard and made this day successful and memorable. I can highly recommend this venue for celebrating similar occasions.
