Shoreditch Balls Old Street: Crazy Golf & Mini Golf in London
Shoreditch Balls is a crazy golf bar on Old Street, built around a course that runs over two floors with pipes, loops and shots you play off the walls. It suits groups, after-work drinks and date nights more than a quiet round, and the single most useful thing to know is that it flips to over 18s only after 6pm.
Play starts from £8.50 per person off-peak, and there is a full bar alongside the golf with cocktails, beer buckets and shot trays. You can walk in, but the venue is geared around booked slots, so groups should reserve ahead. Kitchen runs pizzas and burgers if you want to eat while you play. It is a couple of minutes from Old Street station.

The mini golf setup
The course is the draw here. Instead of one flat row of holes, it spreads across two floors and is built around pipes, loops and shots you take off the walls, so it plays differently from a standard putting strip. Expect neon and a loud, bar-led atmosphere rather than a gentle family round. Hole count is not published, but you play the full course as part of your slot. It is firmly a social, drink-in-hand version of mini golf, so come for the novelty and the group buzz rather than a serious game.
Good to know
Golf starts from £8.50 per person at off-peak times, with walk-in prices varying by availability, so booking ahead is sensible, especially for groups. Drinks are extra, from around £6.50, and there is a full bar with cocktails, beer buckets in sixes or twelves, and tall shot trays. The kitchen does pizzas and burgers. Cancellation needs a week's notice for a full refund, or two weeks for groups of 20 or more. Closed Mondays.
Age policy and timing
Under 18s are allowed before 6pm with an adult, but after 6pm it is over 18s only and you will need ID. Opening hours stretch late: Thursday to midnight or 1am, and Friday and Saturday through to 3am, so it works as a proper night out rather than just an early-evening activity. If you want a quieter, less boozy game, aim for an afternoon slot earlier in the week.
