About this space

The Cube - Urban Playground is an entertainment venue that pairs a long neon-lit bar with flexible social zones designed around group activity.

Design: The interior pairs saturated neon lighting and mirrored surfaces against a dark, exposed ceiling for a high-contrast, late-night look. The long curved bar runs along one side while low lounge seating and rows of stools keep circulation clear along a linear floorplan.

Features: The venue provides a staffed bar and an in-house PA and sound system for music and announcements. The venue also has Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a cloakroom, step-free entrance, wheelchair access and accessible toilets, plus onsite food service.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social evening that mixes informal competition and a lively, bar-focused atmosphere.

What sets it apart: Glass-enclosed, tech-driven play cubes provide interactive, score-tracked mini-golf-style games across multiple digitally mapped holes.

What guests say: The venue has attentive, helpful staff and an efficient bar service. The entertainment area is energetic and accessible to a wide age range.
