There is also a cocktail bar, a stage for private functions, as well as food and drink options.

The venue is described as offering a "fresh wave of old-school competitive socialising" and the "perfect new spot for a head-to-head with mates, colleagues, or larger groups, seeking a lively night out filled with friendly competition".

Big Penny's managing director, Frans Kobus, said: "Flukes is a new twist on an old games hall you’d find in social clubs, where technology on darts and shuffleboards gives everyone a chance to win, and fun is at the heart of everything.

"We’ve put a lot of work into making sure Flukes is designed and has an ambience that is unlike any other competitive socialising venue."
