Players Social Spitalfields: Darts in Spitalfields

Players Social is a games and cocktail bar tucked into Crispin Place on the edge of Spitalfields Market, and its interactive darts is the draw if you want a few rounds without the silence of a serious league night. It suits groups, after-work crowds and anyone who fancies trying darts for the first time, since the boards handle the scoring and the games keep things moving.

There are four oches here: two in the bar and two under cover outside, so you can play whatever the weather is doing. You book a lane for up to 12 people at GBP 10 per person for a 55 minute slot, then pick from games like classic 501, Killer and a few newer modes. Larger parties can combine oches with the surrounding space, and there is a full cocktail list and an open kitchen if you want to eat between throws.

It sits right by Spitalfields Market, a short walk from Liverpool Street and Shoreditch High Street, so it gets busy on Friday and Saturday evenings. Book your oche ahead, especially for groups, rather than turning up and hoping a lane is free.
