4 Star Review by Ruth Clenton
Nice meal, really quite delicious! Haven't been here for a while, so was really nice to come back. The outdoor area looks like lovely area, would be especially nice in better weather to overlook our beautiful lake, today it's a bit overcast and drizzling.
4 Star Review by Lara Stout
Their margarita was a bit strange tasting - certainly not the finest mixing but the presentation was nice. The food and dessert however was wonderful.

We hosted our wedding reception at Valentine Bowling Club over the weekend. Absolutely could not complain about the presentation of the functions room and the view is amazing. But what we can complain about is the food, the lack of communication from the functions manager, the poor communication from the CEO and the service received from bar manager on duty. We chose the cocktail package for the canaps to which we received rock hard and ice cold cheese burgers? When asked for a replacement we received no response. And after speaking with Geoff, it appears there was no problem with any of the food and all was consumed. Drinks package was to finish at 930 although we were meant to be able to buy drinks until 10:30. We have since found out the bar was closed at 930 because we were too intoxicated. Which was not the case at all. We were told we could wait in the bar downstairs until our taxi arrived. 10:10pm came and we were still waiting on a taxi and the manager on duty told us to leave the premises Because he had to close the doors and go home and that if we didnt want to wait on a taxi we should have caught the last courtesy bus home at 9:30. We definitely would have done that if I knew we were going to get kicked out of the function room which was meant to finish at 10:30pm! For the amount of money we spent on this, we would not recommend having a wedding at this venue.
