Barnet Burnt Oak Leisure Centre: Opinions

4.1/5 (155 Opinions)
Omri Keye 1 year ago

Negative experience: Not one to complain but the parking situation is horrible. Wasn't clear at all and frankly ridiculous that you have to pay for parking after spending over 20 quid for an hour of badminton. After I said I didn't know they refused to take back my parking charge notice.

Megan 1 year ago

Negative experience: Staff unhelpful and rude. Women’s only sessions aren’t adhered to or monitored. Out of date and unimpressionable equipment, repairs are ignored and overall maintenance isn’t carried out.

S Urquhart 1 year ago

Positive experience: Generally, a positive experience. The ample parking spaces are convenient. However, during my recent visit on 22/02/2024 for badminton , I encountered a receptionist named King who exhibited a negative attitude. His rudeness was unnecessary, especially when I tried to address it. Try to acknowledge emotions may cause us to react impulsively, and take accountability. We all have shortcomings, that is okay, apologise, and learn. On the flip side, another receptionist, a lady with silver hair, always maintains a friendly demeanor and sets a great standard for customer service. Let's be kind to one another :)

Man Lee 1 year ago

Negative experience: Women’s only gym on Friday is unfair for all the men that have a training plan and need to use the machines downstairs, if they want a separate gym make them a separate room. Why am I paying full price monthly and not getting full access

T Tang 3 years ago

Negative experience: Worst experience ever! The Duty manager (Andreas) was very rude, very bad customer service. Really don't understand why do they only allow max 4 people on 1 badminton court whereas other Leisure Centres allow 6 people. We came with a group of 5, and Andreas told one of us to leave as they only allow 4 people. However, the group who playing on the other court was also a group of 5 and Andreas let them in. Is it because that group know Andreas, so they can have more than 4 people? So Andreas is using his "Duty Manager" power to change the rules? Don't think I will book this centre again, very poor customer service, floor is very dusty. If they want people to book again, they should get rid of Andreas or send him to have a training about how to treat customer.

I W 3 years ago

Negative experience: Courts are nice, but the duty manager Andreas is not friendly or professional, who allowed the other group of badminton people to have a size of 5 on one court, while simply asked one friend of our group to go home due to the “rule” here that only 4 people are allowed to enter for one badminton court. Double standard. Simply Ridiculous.

Fantastic experience: My daughter does gymnastics here on a Saturday and she loves it. The teachers are amazingly patient with all of the children and get them all involved in the warm up activities and with my daughter being reserved that works well for her. I highly recommend this as an extra curricular activity where your child will have lots of fun.

Bernardo costa 4 years ago

Negative experience: Previous duty manager was rude current one is ruder (Andreas), better gyms are the worst. Having only 4 people per court and not being able to have anyone sitting out on the side forcing any one extra to leave (this was mid session). What kind of rules are those. These managers must get some sort of fulfilment by showing the power of the role.
