Shuffle Club / Shuffleboard Bar London St Pancras: Shuffleboard

PaidFrom £25/hrBooking advisedGroupsLate bar

37 Tavistock Place, London · WC1H 9SE · Mo-Su 12:00-23:00

A shuffleboard bar tucked inside the Generator London hostel in Bloomsbury, a short walk from St Pancras and King's Cross. You hire a champion-sized table by the hour and play in a private gaming area, with a full bar and kitchen feeding you between rounds. It suits groups, after-work crowds and anyone who wants something to do with their hands while they drink.

The single most useful thing to know: tables are £25 an hour and you should book ahead, especially evenings and weekends. There is more here than shuffleboard too, so a group that splits over who plays what will still be happy.

The shuffleboard setup

The draw is the champion-sized shuffleboard tables, set up in a private gaming area so your group has its own space rather than a corner of a busy bar. You slide the pucks the length of the table and rack up points, which is easy to pick up cold and gets competitive fast. If shuffleboard is not for everyone, the same room has pool, foosball and arcade games, so a mixed group can rotate through. It works well for two players head to head or a bigger crew taking turns and keeping score.

Good to know

Tables are £25 per hour each, so the cost per person drops the more of you there are. Booking ahead is the safe move for evenings and weekends; you can reserve through the website. The kitchen does pizzas, calzone, salads and fish and chips, plus vegan options, so you can make a night of it without leaving. Happy hour runs lunchtime into the evening with deals like three pints for £14 and two gin and tonics for £10. Open noon to 11pm, seven days a week.

Getting there

It sits at 37 Tavistock Place, WC1H 9SE, inside Generator London. Russell Square on the Piccadilly line is the closest tube, and St Pancras and King's Cross are both an easy walk for anyone arriving by mainline or Eurostar. That makes it a handy meeting spot if your group is coming in from different directions or rounding off an evening near the stations.
