Reviews of Kingpin Townsville
Matthew Stuart
Tyler & Kaitlin were amazing - they looked after everything, we couldn’t have hoped for better. They were friendly and highly professional. When things needed to be changed or altered I didn’t even really noticed as they looked after it all. It’s great when your kids walk away saying: They were the best, I really liked them can we come back again and have them!

Stella was absolutely amazing, considerate, and...

The staff were great. The venue is good. The food is TERRIBLE and over priced. $33 for 2 tacos and some guacamole & chips. Salsa on the tacos was revolting, waterlogged and didnt match the menu. Salsa and guac was equally bad. At a guess, I would say the salsa's and guac were more than 3 days old. Dont eat here.
