Tasty food, gorgeous cocktails and a bit of healthy competition equals a winning recipe for an amazing time for your pre-wedding get together! How does a side of shuffleboard or darts with your cocktails sound?

Whether you’re looking for a daytime plan or something to keep you partying into the early hours, Electric Shuffle and Flight Club are great options. Both have resident DJs banging out the tunes, and both offer fab bottomless brunch packages if an afternoon booze session is more what you’re after. They’re also perfectly designed for the most amazing insta-worthy pics.

Flight Club: Cheltenham, Bristol, Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh Cardiff, Birmingham and London: Shoreditch, Islington, Bloomsbury and Victoria

Flight Club’s Social Darts experience has given the game of darts a serious makeover – no longer the game of middle-aged men downing larger. Flight Club has taken darts into the 21st Century with fast-paced games housed in an eclectic pub setting that has nods to the fun of the fairground throughout. And all of that, combined with gorgeous cocktails and tasty sharing plates.
 
Brunch at Flight Club promises to be a riot. For £35 you’ll get an hour at the oche, bottomless pizza as you play (it just keeps on coming!) and a bottle of prosecco each (yep – that’s a whole bottle per person). Post-Social Darts, the bubbles and pizza continue for another hour as your group is taken to a table to round off the session nicely.

Electric Shuffle: Leeds and London: Canary Wharf and London Bridge

Electric Shuffle (Flight Club’s glamorous sister) is the bar that has made shuffleboard sophisticated. Yep, you read that right! Think private shuffleboard areas dotted around a stylish industrial, art-deco-inspired bar serving stunning cocktails and delicious food. It’s the perfect combo for an amazing time.
 
Head to Electric Shuffle for its two-hour weekend bottomless brunch, where guests can quaff on a bottle of Prosecco each and enjoy unlimited pizza from beginning to end. Tickets are £35 and include 60 minutes of gameplay at the shuffleboard and another 60 minutes to continue the drink and pizza party around a table – no doubt toasting or booing the victor.
