Shuffle Board
Home to two epic 22ft shuffleboard tables built for big shots, bold moves, and proper bragging rights.
Seasoned pro or total newbie? Doesn’t matter. Our crew will have you gliding in no time (pucks, not ropes). The aim’s simple: send your puck down the table, land in the scoring zone, knock out the opposition, or perfectly set up your teammate for glory.
Play it smart, go full send, or trust in pure chaos – either way, you’ll be a certified shuffleboard hero before the night’s out.
Karaoke Room
Our karaoke booth fits up to 12 guests and is bookable by the hour. Pick your favourite tracks, grab the mic, and step into the spotlight for your main character moment.
Electronic Golf
Step up, grab a club, and you’re ready to play.
When you arrive our team will get you set up with a putter and ball, then point you toward the green. We’ve got two club sizes so everyone can get involved, including the kids.
From there it’s simple. The screen will tell you which hole or target to aim for, and the system keeps track of the scores automatically. No wandering around a full course, no arguing over scorecards, just you, the green, and a bit of friendly competition.
Shoes are completely up to you. Trainers are probably the easiest option, but if you’ve come out looking great and happen to be wearing heels, we’re not here to ruin the outfit.
Electronic Darts
AR Darts brings two augmented reality darts oches to life, with live dart tracking and automatic scoring so you can focus on the fun — and the company. Located in The Vault, our dedicated games space is available for group bookings.
Suitable for all skill levels (though not all ages), Hot Shots Darts is the perfect activity for birthdays, stag or hen parties, team socials, or even a Tuesday night out with colleagues.
Ping Pong
Ping Pong brings fast-paced rallies, quick reflexes, and plenty of friendly rivalry to the floor. With easy scoring and space to play, it’s all about big laughs, bold shots, and bragging rights. Located in The Vault, our games area is available for group bookings.
Great for all skill levels, ping pong is perfect for birthdays, stag or hen parties, team socials, or even a spontaneous after-work showdown with colleagues.
