Rides, sweets, donuts and arcades what more can a kid want! I think they have done it up a little more these days with bowling and mire food restrauants | 0 |
Walked right to the end of the pier. Beautiful day, fine sea breeze. Excellent views back to the shore. Not too much comercial stuff on the pier and far longer than it initially looked. Some of the timbers towards the end looked a bit suspect and I noticed a few gaps that could trap small feet. | 0 |
Recently we went to Legoland. We paid (in Clubcard tokens) more than £100 for us and our 2 small boys to visit. Plus parking. Plus food. Plus a long drive. We got on 4 rides. It was far far too busy.Last weekend we went to Walton Pier. OK it's fairly small, and it's not as shiny as a big theme park. But we paid £10 per child, and they went on almost every ride, without really queuing. The staff were brilliantly helpful, polite, and nice to the kids.Our boys loved it.Yes it's a bit 'fading British seaside'. But that's part of the charm.We will be back next year. | 3 |
My grandsons loved it sunday plenty for them to do with the rides and arcade beach is all sand ghost train they loved | 1 |
We took the grandchildren - bought them wristbands and watched them for 5 hours! - they certainly had their monies worth. | 2 |
The pier makes for a great day out and has loads of fair ground rides perfect for the whole family as well as the indoor bowling alley. Also the staff are friendly and helpful. a great day out! | 0 |
I know the school holidays are over but the pier was a ghost place, staff looked bored stiff, it is probably different weekends and school holidays but looked very depressing, we played the machines for a while then had a nice walk along the lovely beach up to the Naze | 0 |
It is a lovely place to visit, rides are tokens only and a little expensive but they ahve to make there money some how. the arcade was nice and we won quite a lot for £10 between 5 people. our little one enjoyed the 2p machines which is where we spent the most and won the most. | 0 |
Our two are too small for most rides but having said that there were a few things they could go on and at 3 tickets for their rides (works out to £1.80 unless you buy 24 tickets for £11 or £10 for unlimited rides wristband) I thought that was good value. Had a nice bracing walk along the pier and 2 and a half year old loved looking down at the lifeboat from the viewing platform. Pier seems more rickety as you get away from land but still OK. | 0 |
A typical seaside pier, amusements rides snacks etc Also bowling lanes. Good place to take shelter if it happens to rain. | 0 |
The Beach is perfecy for families. The Naze is a lovely walking area, the Naze Tower is a must. The view is across to the Felixstowe ports and you see the steamers coming in from Holland. Good place to fly kites, or picnic The cliffs are full of fossils. The | 0 |
I took my mum and two children here today and these two guys made my children's day funny cheerful talkative fellas . Had a great day all day wicked 😊 | 2 |
Nice day out 10 Pin Bowling at the end of the pier. Cheap n' cheerful fast food (chips a plenty) burgers etc. Ideal for mum and dad and the kids. Good family day, food, not gourmet, but OK!! | 0 |
Food was a little greasy. Tables took a long time to be cleared and we had to ask for our table to be cleaned again after it was finally cleared. Wouldn't visit again | 3 |
Been to several piers and they're all similar. Lots of things to do. My 2 years old son was delighted with the atmosphere. We ended up spending a couple of hours and a few coins all around. Thumbs up :) | 0 |
Good day out . Lovely long pier with life boat station at the end . Brought back memories from being a child . Would recommend visiting , town a little jaded but pier being brought back to life | 0 |
Had a fun day with four teenagers here yesterday - they really loved it, and we had a good windy walk up the long pier while they spent all their coppers in the penny arcade, and whizzed around on dodgems and the waltzer. Traditional fun, but smiles all around. A shout-out goes to Pete the ride supervisor who couldn't have been more friendly! | 0 |
Took the kids to ride the rides at Walton Pier and it was a great day out. All under cover and great value for money. The cafe served good food and there was enough tables to sit at. | 3 |
Spent the day on the pier with my friend and her 2 young great nieces . They had wrist bands and got their money's worth. Had some lunch in the Seaspray Diner , freshly cooked , very tasty , good value . Fish looked lovely , my burger was good , too . Finished with a Kelly's ice cream . A really good day ! | 0 |
our children loved the rides and amusements on the pier, great place to visit if the weather turns bad as all under a roof :) | 0 |
Plenty to do do for kids, not really adult orientated, there is an over 18 area to play for bigger bucks if you like a gamble, bowling alley, bars if you fancy a bevy. | 0 |
Brilliant for a wet day £10 wrist band so the kids can go on everything as many times as they want they loved it! Was quiet and the staff were nice.Bargain day out!Great chips too!There loos and baby changing areas are huge and clean 👍🏻 | 0 |
Apart from my guilty pleasure of playing the tuppenny pushers in the arcade, there's not much here to interest me, but a £10 wristband to go on all the rides for the youngsters is brilliant value. A walk to the end of the pier and back fvor a quick pint in the sunshine, and smiles from the kids after unlimited fairground rides makes this a good value attraction for all ages. The toilets in the Pier Bowl are a little grotty, but this is only a minor gripe. | 0 |
This pier is one of the longest in the country and you can spend a good deal of time in the arcade by the entrance. Great for the kids after a hard afternoon making sand castles on the beach. | 0 |
All of the amusements are undercover and perfect for a get out of the rain time. We had a fantastic time in there for less than £10. Loads of fun to be had on the 2p machines. | 0 |
Visited the pier on a rainy day in July, found good entertainment for all ages we'll run and staff helpful and friendly.Good rides for younger children and bigger rides for older children and adults. The rides were also quite well maintained, there is also a bowling alley and gaming area with a large selection of machines to play on. | 0 |
Had a few fun hours here. Had a go on the dodgems. Not over priced. £10 for unlimited rides Great views. | 0 |
I advise if you have to choose between Clacton and Walton Pier that you choose Clacton, much more fun and safer, Walton Pier is dirty with holes in the ceiling where water is coming through, staff rolling fags whilst operating kids rides aswell as the smell of weed, the machines are impossible almost to win out of, in huge need of investment, go to Clacton Pier if you have the choice, much better and more modern | 4 |
Whatever the weather there's something for everyone on Walton Pier as all the attractions are enclosed. People go Fishing from the end of the pier | 2 |
Like Clacton pier it offers fantastic traditional fairground rides. There are a few older children rides such as Waltzers and dodgems but perhaps more rides suitable for children a little younger. Wristbands can be bought which offer unlimited rides or you can purchase tickets instead if you only want to go on a few rides. All in all he had a very enjoyable day and will be back soon. | 2 |
we visit the pier every time we come to Walton on the naze, never lets us down spent all day on the pier with friends and our kids,nice helpful staff, the highlights for us parents was the breakfast in the seaspray diner, and at lunch time we had the best ever fish and chips,cooked fresh for us very clean place, and the staff were so nice to all of us ,love that place | 3 |
Fantastic day on the beach finished off nicely with a little trip to the pier. Had a really friendly bloke on the waltzers who was really great with the kids. Fun for all the family 😄 | 2 |
This pier has seen better days. The amusements that are undercover at the shore end of the pier are fine for children and ideal on a wet day. The rest of the pier which is about half a mile long id definitely run down, with uneven and in some cases rotting decking with nails sticking up and a potential tripping hazard with the potential for serious injury for the unwary. That said it is one of the longer piers in the country, it's really sad that it is being allowed to decay in this fashion. | 2 |
this could be a really nice day out , but they have let it get a bit too run down and not many rides at all.... it is lovely for a walk along on a nice sunny day but really does need bringing up to date | 2 |
A cheap and cheerful day out. Fun for all the family especially when the weather is miserable as it happens to be often in this country! My kids loved the ghost train!It's deffo worth a visit :) | 4 |
Walton on the naze Pier is a very well run per. Better than some in England. We had a nice walk out to the Lifeboat Station and then walked back to try the rides in the large coveted area.kids Loved it and so did Mum and Dad.Nice cafe at the front entrance to the Pier which does a mean Fish and Chips all cooked to order.Walton Pier is a nice place to spend a few hours and good value for money.will come back soon | 2 |
Great if you want amusements for your children, however the planking along the pier is in a very poor condition.Not much money has been spent on renewing the planking,and it would be dangerous to fish from at night,as the uneven planks have bits missing and the bolts stick up waiting to be a trip hazard for fisherman at night. | 3 |
Great fun, a traditional pier with arcade, fun fair, bowling alley and cafe.Had a lovely atmosphere. The pier itself is very long and at the end the lifeboat is moored. Pretty sure the pier is perfectly safe, but its a bit scary walking so far out to see on very old wooden planks! Fantastic beach, and the view of the pretty beach huts when you get to the end of the pier is worth seeing. | 2 |
Absolutely love coming hers, brings back so many memories when I came here with my nan and the whole family when I was younger. Still get the same beachy childhood feeling when you walk on the pier and hear the noises from the rides and machines. Also love going on the 2p slots, has to be one of only a few left that don't stack the coin so high that things don't move! Lovely for family day out at the seaside | 0 |
Went bowling at the end of the pier and I must say what an awful experience. The place was full of foul mouthed teenagers who were very rude and did nothing but shout expletives across the place to each other. Toilets were filthy and due to the teens my child was too scared to go anywhere alone. Toilets in need of a serious deep clean. Children also wanted something to eat, but I took them elsewhere as the staff who were cooking looked filthy and very unhygienic and the whole kitchen area was a disgrace. This place needs closing down, disgusting. | 10 |
We visited the pier and was surprised it is like going back in time! Walzer, Bumper Cars and loads of amusement Arcades! Well worth a visit! | 0 |
What a trip down memory lane! I hadn't been here since 1959 on a Sunday School Outing, and the slot machines are still there albeit it's dearer now.Other than that, it's nice that it's still here. | 0 |
Enjoyable for walking and some nice rides for young children but certainly past it's best and not cheap. The highlight is the fresh donuts in the cafe. The lowlight is the arcade that consists almost entirely of gambling machines, whatever happened to having arcade machines in an arcade? | 3 |
I've been going to this pier since I was 3 some 31 years it's gone downhill but still good for the little kids, it's quite expensive, I've never eaten here as it doesn't look very appetising but had a drink in the bar at the end to watch football it's ok. They have a bowling alley there too. You can fish off the pier which my dad does and he has a pass for the year at £60 ish very good value. It's a good pier but nothing like southend. | 0 |
What a great selection of rides and amusements with a fantastic bowling alley. Fun had by all our family aged between 10 and 69. | 0 |
Sunday 20th October, and a sunny autumn day, we parked up, the parking is free, and headed for the pier, which seemed to stretch out into the sea for ages.There are fair ground rides and slot machine arcades on the pier. We walked to the end to the RNLI station, it was a bit windy but we enjoyed the walk and the sunshine. There were a number of people fishing from the pier.Nice long walk to the end and back, took us about 30 mins in total as we walked slowly and hung around a bit a the end looking at the lifeboat. | 0 |
having been to the pier for a number of years, I have a 9 and 4 year old, the 4 year old loves the rides and at £10 for a wrist band good value, the 9 year old loves Clacton pier as has bigger rides but is a little bit more expensive. I don't see why people buy tickets as you only need to go on 5 rides and you have spent £10. The staff are very good and it was good way to spend a couple of hours. | 0 |
104 rods we counted 2 whiting poute caught as we walked along take your windbreak to tie wrap to pier keep the wind off, this pier had all those rods out on a sunday with lots of banter between fishermen,didnt see many people snagging, sandy beach so probably good plaice ! for flat fish, either way a cheap day out as you can purchase £7 a day ticket or £65 season ticket, buy on pier, and when you have finished pop into the cafe at the front for teacake and tea £1.50p ! they do meals as well if you dont want to cook after a days fishing | 1 |
This must be the longest pier in the country, I've been on several but nowhere near as long as this one. Lots of things for this kids to do, but as we went out of season not many things open. Cafe, toilet, places to sit. Well worth a stroll down it. | 0 |
My teenagers loved the arcade, me and hubby the bowling and air hockey!Second visit here this year. Last time we got the ticket book for £10 which was good value.we did the arcade more this time. | 0 |
A comprehensive and well run undercover fun fair thoroughly enjoyed by us old 'uns and the three boys under eight with us.The rest of the pier seems to be devoted to fishing (plenty of room) and the lifeboat station at the end. Owing to the gaps between the planking you get a good feel of being at sea! | 0 |
I am a life long visitor of the pier and visited again yesterday. Was absolutely disgusted to see someone sat smoking outside the bowling alley on the chairs opposite some racing cars. The pier is completely under cover and there are ample signage stating it is illegal to smoke there. On closer inspection I noticed it was a member of staff!! I had no choice but to walk past through a cloud of smoke with my baby daughter. I felt sick. I was tempted to say something but I don't like confrontation so I just shook my head as I walked past. | 3 |
Rides are slightly disappointing however keeps the young ones happy with unlimited ride wristband. Good amusements which keep you entertained and a nice wooden pier that is popular for fishing and crabbing with a lifeboat station at the end which you can stand over and look at the boat when docked. Hasn't changed since I used to go there when I was 7:) Still a better alternative to Clacton for me and my family! Also take a walk down to Frinton-On-Sea for a quieter beach and town area:) | 0 |
The pier is the same as it was 20 years ago .good for little kids as they do a wrist band for unlimited rides .the cafe on the entrance is good. | 3 |
Small but tidy pier in Walton with just enough activities for the kids on one set price which is great as you don't feel like you are being constantly fleeced for money. The numerous mini-rides inside will keep them entertained for a couple of hours and is centrally located so ideal after some time on the beach.Definitely a place for the under 10s though. | 2 |
This pier seemed to go on for miles!!! Very clean too. Plenty of things to do here as well as places to have a snack and drink. | 3 |
Easy to find, it sticks out into the sea !Has a great little restaurant at the entrance with plenty on the menu to suite anybody. The staff are ALL always very friendly & the service is quick too.The rest of the pier has all the usual features & also is home to the local RNLI lifeboat station. | 0 |
Just enough for the little ones without being too much for the accompanying adults. Also has a bowling alley and café/bar and of course an ice cream kiosk. | 0 |
Its pretty good if you have small children as the rides and entertainment gear up mostly for them. As long as you don't mind the standard arcades and the little merry go rounds and such, all will be good. If you enjoy strolling with your partner etc then this would also suit. | 1 |
I have family in Walton and spent a lot of time there as a child, and now I like to take my own children there too. The pier is great value for money with individual tickets for sale for the rides, or an unlimited wrist band for £10 per child (the wrist band also allows an adult to ride on the dodgems with a child and will allow an adult on to some of the rides that smaller children wouldn't feel confident on on their own (the carousel for example)). There are also loads of arcade games, hook the duck and grabbers etc, for extra cost. My children (6 and 3) definitely made the most of their bands. They went on every single ride and most of them more than once. There was minimal queuing on a dreary saturday. The only reason I didnt rate it 5 is although it was quite a busy day there wasnt one member of staff for each ride and you would have to wait for one ride to finish and be emptied before they would come over and let you on the one you wanted, but the most we had to wait was 5-10 mins so it wasn't really a problem.There are no thrill rides here, they are mostly smaller but entertaining, funfair type rides. Aeroplanes, drop and smile, dodgems, carousel, a mini ferris wheel, swings, trampolines, a ghost train, teacups etc...We ate from the bowling alley (scampi, hot dog and chips) and found the food very tasty and reasonably priced. The toilets in the bowling alley are also clean and well maintained. We sat at the outside seating to eat which meant the kids could run around a bit and watch the rides.Afterwards we got an ice cream and sat on the sand, as the sun had come out, and it was a very pleasant setting, with the kids even having a paddle in the sea.One thing to mention is that the council seem to have put yellow lines EVERYWHERE in Walton, so just be careful and take note of the signs. You might struggle to park close to the Pier if the car park is full.A great day out from 10am til 5pm! Recommended :o) | 2 |
We took our three children of 2,4 & 16 to the pier and were pleasantly surprised. The pier has lots for the little ones and if you buy the wristband for them it's good value. The bumper cars was the favourite ride for the 16 year old as there are only a couple for the big kids. The staff were great especially when it came to stopping the rides if a child changed their mind or got upset. The food area did not look that appealing but we didn't try it so it may have been good. | 1 |
Well worth a visit. Choice of rides and amusements for the little ones , good fresh selection of food available, bowling alley and bar at the end. Reasonable prices for wristbands. Staff in cafe at entrance very friendly and helpful. Large selection of good food served fresh and at a good price | 1 |
Perfect for the whole family, with fair ground rides, food, long refreshing walk to the end of the pier, with family's fishing. | 0 |
I have visited Walton Pier for many years and been very happy, but this time I visited I was let down. The majority of the staff stood about talking; the guy running the Dodgems didn't move the unused cars out of the way so the drivers had to swerve around them. One guy had a very faded and ripped staff shirt. My Daughter enjoyed the children's rides. £10 for a wristband or 60p a ticket. The rides my Daughter went on needed either 3,4 or 5 tokens.Had an enjoyable meal at the bowling cafe as always | 0 |
For someone who loves piers, walton pier did not disappoint!!! It was a nice long walk to the end, with lovely views back to shore, would be great for Kids and Adults alike! | 0 |
Unfortunately at the time of our visit to the Walton pier, it was shut for the rides, but I was amazed at how well it had been maintained. Nothing much had changed since I was a young girl visiting. We played a couple of games of bowling, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Will definitely be returning with the grandchildren for the pier later in the year. | 0 |
If you consider the amusements and the pier, its a bit run down and fairly pricey. In comparison to other pier's and amusements/rides, I think there is better out there such as that in Southend-on-Sea in Essex. | 2 |
I used to visit this free pier and over the years the need for investment has become a must for the success and longevity of the pier. The appearance of the arcade and food outlets are dirty and shabby. I would not eat here. There are no shops to attract the paying customers. I wanted to purchase ice creams and drinks but there was nowhere available on the pier. I was hoping to go down the pier on the train but it was not in operation. There are opportunities to generate revenue but the basics of a clean or safe environment are not being met. I walked my dog Koda down the pier and he was petrified as the planks creaked and wobbled as he walked. He was so nervous. I watched numerous families struggling to walk down the pier with pushchairs and young toddlers frightened of the crumbling planks. Some planks are very dangerous indeed. There is urgent need for regeneration and investment to improve the very basics. | 5 |
When I was a kid this place was the centre of my universe. The RollerGhoster was the main highlight as well as the dodgems. I loved the mirror maze and the arcade right by the entrance. Much of the old magic has gone and replaced by generic rides and fruit machines. Glad that the bowling alley survives! | 3 |
Visited today and although did not expect to see rides open was disappointed that to see the owners have now removed the carousel. It appears they strip more assets out of the pier year by year. The exterior was battered and grubby. The place was on the market a couple of years ago its a shame they don't sell up to someone who wants to develop the pier as they have at clacton. Walton however remains a lovely little town with superb beaches. | 2 |
Great little fair to visit when it starts to get a little cooler as it is located undercover on the pier. The staff inside the fair were helpful and checked that safety straps were correctly fitted when children sat on the rides. Most of the rides there are suitable for ages 3 to 8 although some 2 year olds could probably go on some of the rides. Since it is inside it was a great place to visit in early October when you do not want to linger on the beach for hours on end. We bought a wristband for our children which cost £10 each and provided unlimited rides throughout the hrs of 11- 5. I have lost count of how many rides they had but it was at least 40 turns between them meaning the wristband was good value. The rides are not modern but for little ones it is great fun. The arcade next door seemed fine but not as much fun as the fair and we did not spend much time there. | 2 |
Great value for money and excellent rides, spent over 5 hours there and could have stayed longer!!Bowling is great but the £10 unlimited rides wrist band was great!Boys had great fun, they are aged 3 years and 5 years | 1 |
Great fun on the 2p slots and 13 of us had a game of 10 pin bowling. From 6 years of age to 70 plus, a great day out | 1 |
Hasn't changed in years. Brought back some good memories, good for young kids and a lovely view of Walton from the end. | 0 |
The best value is to buy an arm band for £10 which will give you unlimited access to all the rides. There is a lot of fun for children over 4-5 - you need to be a certain height for some of the rides.We found the staff friendly and helpful.You can walk along the pier for free! | 1 |
Had a great time here with children, and even walked to the end. Attractions under cover make it a great place to visit all year round. | 0 |
Amazing place to come with kids and friends and have quality time there - lots of entertainments for them; romantic place for couples; clean sandy beach; gorgeous waves and etc...wow! | 0 |
Was great for the younger kids but wouldn't advise for older than 6-7, paid £10 wrist band kids went on as many rides as they liked and there was no silly height restrictions so my children could all enjoy every ride, overall a great day :-) | 2 |
Great childhood memories of this place. Took my two year old son here recently who begged to go on the rides. He had never been on any before and after a ride on some cars he asked to go on the tea cups. Once on there though for some reason he panicked. The man running the ride couldn't have been lovelier or more patient. He let my son get off and gave us our tickets back. Love the amusement arcade although some of the machines don't work. The £1 bowling is great fun. My only gripe is one of the staff members in the amusement arcade standing outside smoking in the doorway. He went out quite a number of times and I felt it was quite unprofessional. | 0 |
Quieter than nearby clacton. Noy as much there which is rather nice. Older fashioned than others. Really nice for children and adults alike. Good food an drinks available. A wander along the beach is a must. | 1 |
Went for the day with our 4 year old grandson. We loved walking round the little streets and back alleys. We all ate in a very good pie and mash shop. Had tea and scones in a pretty little cafe. Walked along the sea front and onto the pier. Yet another good old English seaside resort | 0 |
Good value if you buy the £10 wrist band for your child to go on as many rides as they like in one day! | 0 |
I have spent the whole day on and around Walton pier with my mother whose 71 my sister and our two teenage daughters and a good time was had by all. There are not many places you can visit and please all age ranges but it was somehow managed. It was a beautiful day so we started with a slow walk along the pier , then on our way back we hit the arcades! Really good fun. Then we spent a couple of hours on a lovely sandy beach , having lots of fun in the sea. A spot of lunch at the seaspray. Look can be deceiving. The fish was delicious! Had a few rides back on the pier. The girls loved the cheesy ghost train and our mum loved the old style carousel. We were all sad when it was time to leave and will be definatly returning x | 0 |
Great priced wrist band, ideal for younger children (4-6), good selection of rides. Younger children not so well catered for, but ride on toys reasonable valueVery hot and stuffy on a warm day, | 0 |
What a fantasticlly equiped pier this is you want for nothing ther is absolutely everything & more to keep you amesed ALL day | 0 |
Not many things to do except sands good If there is no tides. Better than other beeches nearby. Better one near by is Clacton pier it's the best so far in our trip to Essex. | 0 |
Walton pier is a lot of fun. It has a bowling alley, cafes and lots of different rides which children would love. My husband and I walked to the end of the pier as it was a lovely day and it is nice to see the view of Walton from the end. There were many yachts sailing too making it very interesting to see. This pier is just what you expect for a seaside resort and does not disappoint. If you don't like that sort of thing, don't go! | 0 |
Worth the walk to see Walton from the end of the pier. Just what you need when the weather is to hot and you want a nice cooling breeze. Make sure you wear a pair of comfortable shoes! | 0 |
Walton Pier is the third longest pier in Britian (after Southend and Southport) at 792m. Passing through the entrance, you have a cafe to the left (chips, chips, chips), working your way up the pier through the amusements and rides. Like so many other places you really need to get a wristband to get your moneys worth, as single rides are (obviously) more expensive, but on a rainy day, and if you dont mind going on rides again and again, then kids can have fun here, Included rides are waltzer, dodgems, Ghost train, Carosel, and several smaller rides. At the end of the rides section, you come to the Bar (yes!) and the Ten Pin bowling, although we didn't do this, it looked to be popular. Modern day out of the way, we enjoyed a lovely walk to the end of the pier with great views of Walton and Frinton (sadly the kids train ride to en end of the pier is no more). Not the greatest time we have ever had, and in need of a little TLC, but nonetheless a nice old pier. | 0 |
We were rained out one day so headed to the covered pier for some fun. It needs updating, big time! There are your basic rides, cafes etc. the ten pin bowling is ancient but it did us for the afternoon. It's just all a bit shabby and dark. Needs some proper modernisation. Check out Clacton piers bowling for a really nice place to go! | 0 |
A pier to unit most people rides arcades , bowling cafe and it nice walking the pier just o see the views and you can even see the lifeboat | 0 |
A good pier for the under 10's if you want faster better rides then clacton pier is the one for you. My little ones love Walton pier and buying a wristband it is great value, I haven't eaten in any of the cafes, but a short walk into Walton there is plenty of good places to eat. If you have a wristband you can ride all day as many times as you like. Look forward to some new rides. | 0 |
good value,and fun time to past few hours with under 10 yr olds wrist bands excellent value at £10 allows kids to ride all day for this, but watch out parents your will be getting tickets as well because some rides require an adult if child is under 1.25 metres tall | 0 |
Not as busy as Clacton Pier but enjoyable the day we went was pretty quiet but it gave us more time to look around. | 0 |
I enjoyed walking along the pier but i think it was to early in the season so it was quiet. But the view from the pier was enjoyable. | 0 |
walton pier is the 2nd longest in the country and worth a visit,if just to walk along it,more often than not,in the rain and wind! used to go there as a kid so holds some nice memories...not changed much,typical 'pier stuff'-candy floss,amusements,dodgems,waltzers,etc. theres a nice bowling alley and places to eat and drink too-you could easily spend a couple of hours strolling around. wotever you do-dont pay to go on the ghost train-the scariest thing was the man serving you-you may as well pay 2 quid to go and stand in a dark room for 2 minutes-a real rip off!!! the kids will love it though,probably more geared to the under 10's! overall its worth a look-if only to take you back to the old days,before all these computers and mod cons!! | 2 |
Admission to the pier is free and the walk to the end is well worth while - it's the second longest pier in the country! The small café near the 10 pin bowling is excellent value - great coffee and bacon rolls | 0 |
We absolutely loved it here so much fun & loads to do. There's the huge arcades area plus a fun fair for the kids also you can play bowling. Excellent is all we can say. | 0 |
Took the grandchildren and had saved up all our change so not as expensive as it might have been! Good fun although you can get carried away spending a lot to try to win a small prize in the amusement arcade. Lovely brisk walk in the sea air to see the lifeboat at the end of the pier and watch the fishermen. Must do attaraction whatever the weather! | 0 |
This pier is very well maintained with something for everyone Childrens wrist band was reasonable £10 for unlimited rides.Bowling alley and cafe .Fishing for the seas angler.Well worth a visit and a lovely view of the coast from the end of the pier. | 0 |
