Shuffleboard in London

You can play at dedicated table bars like Electric Shuffle, London Shuffle Club, Boom Battle Bar and Rocket Room, or for free on pub boards at Wapping Tavern and Tank & Paddle. The map above shows every OnlyHere shuffleboard venue with live filters for area and price.

Yes. Some London pubs keep a board you can use without a session fee, including Wapping Tavern and Tank & Paddle. You just buy a drink and wait your turn if it is busy, rather than paying a per-table charge like the dedicated shuffleboard bars.

At paid venues you book the table rather than per person, from around 25 pounds for a short session up to the high 20s or 30s per hour at premium spots, and walk-in rates are usually higher than booking ahead. Pub boards at places like Wapping Tavern and Tank & Paddle are free to play. Always check the venue's own page for the current price.

The dedicated bars such as Electric Shuffle and London Shuffle Club get busy at weekends, so booking a timed slot in advance is recommended, especially for groups over four. Quieter weekday slots and the free pub boards at Wapping Tavern and Tank & Paddle are far more walk-in friendly.

Players take turns sliding weighted pucks down a long table aiming for the scoring zones at the far end, with the highest band worth the most. Only the player whose pucks sit closest past the opponent's best puck scores in that round, and a puck hanging over the far edge without falling counts for extra. At venues like Electric Shuffle the screens score automatically, so you can just play.

Yes, it is one of the better group activities because tables rotate teams of eight to sixteen easily. For birthdays and work dos, book a table or semi-private area at Electric Shuffle, London Shuffle Club, Boom Battle Bar or Rocket Room in advance, and for a relaxed casual session the free boards at Wapping Tavern and Tank & Paddle work for smaller groups.
