When you want a change from hanging out in the sumptuous parks of Sheffield then we’ve got a list of fabulous venues offering you the opportunity to eat great food, drink cold beer and game the night away. Welcome to The Play List: Sheffield

Lane7

Lane 7 Sheffield

Lane7 will introduce you to the ultimate bowling experience – let the good times roll!

With a variety of games and things to do, you can play ping pong, darts, pool and any number of arcade games once you’ve secured that strike and all the glory of your bowling victory. If drinking’s more your thing, they’ve got the perfect set up for beer pong, so you can show off all the skills you’ve honed in the last year, and for those who prefer their alcohol a little *less* competitive, they also offer a wide range of beers and cocktails suitable for everyone’s taste. They also cater for your hungry stomachs with lots of delicious food, including pizza and burgers that are unforgettable!

Valhalla Axe Throwing

Valhalla Axe Throwing

If you’re getting bored of the traditional darts games and pub fare, there’s an opportunity to give it a twist at Valhalla Axe Throwing. It can’t get cooler than this. If anything, it’ll totally improve your darts game! Unlike BattleAxe, this is an adults only venue, so it’s a little more exclusive, but it doesn’t mean it’s any less fun. If you’ve ever wanted to embrace your inner Scandinavian warrior, this is the place! They’re hoping to reopen on 17th May, so mark it in your diaries! Check out their website to book.
