About this space
Games Space is a semi-private basement games area in The Shoreditch Arms, defined by a compact, intimate layout that keeps groups together and activity focused.
Design: The space presents a low-ceiling industrial basement aesthetic, with exposed brick and pipework, dark polished floors, leather-upholstered booths and warm lamp and neon accents.
Features: The Games Space contains leather booths, high stools and tall tables arranged in semi-partitioned bays to create mixed seated and standing areas. The area includes championship-grade foosball tables, multiple screens for live sport viewing and available Wi‑Fi.
Ideal for: Small, informal groups seeking a relaxed, sociable space that mixes seating and standing and encourages casual games and communal viewing.
What guests say: The space is welcoming and comfortable with friendly, attentive service. The seating feels cosy and the décor retains a classic pub character.

Birthday Party · 30 guests

Location is great and it's a good place to go for drinks with friends if you're in the area.
I wouldn't recommend pre-booking it as they won't return the deposit. They don't log your spend and they over promised what was available to us. We were told that there will be 2 table footballs available to us as well as the general public and we booked an interactive darts. When we arrived the table footballs were both booked by different groups and darts that we paid for was booked by another group for the first hour of our booking. I was quite understanding about this initially until they refused to return our deposit claiming we didn't spend enough and that there were only 20 of us. In reality there were 28 of us so they clearly didn't keep track of our guests. Shame really because it was otherwise a good night.

Location is good.
The bar manager was very helpful when trying to resolve the issue with the minimum spend refund.
Not a private area we just had a few tables reserved which didn't seem worth having to pay a deposit of £700.
The communication between the booking team and the bar staff was non-existent. I was told they would keep track of our drinks and I would be refunded the deposit the day after, when I arrived at the venue I was told this wasn't possible.
It wasn't actually unlimited use of the foosball table because it was a shared area and pretty much always occupied by other people
When other people moved my reserved signs and sat at our tables, the bar staff didn't ask them to move, I had to.
We were told we had the area until 1am, but the bar was closed by 11pm despite people still buying drinks.
Overall it was an okay venue but definitely not worth having to pay a £700 deposit upfront
