Good fun for older kids and teens, but it’s more drinks-led Shoreditch entertainment than a proper family winner.
The long read worth saving for nap time
What’s it actually like?
Junkyard Golf Club in Shoreditch is an indoor crazy golf spot with themed courses, music and a strong drinks angle. The reviews mention the Dirk, Pablo and Gary courses, plus a rave room, so this is very much a social, play-and-pour kind of place rather than a quiet family outing. What it does well is keep the mood up: people loved the fun course design, the photo opportunities, the friendly staff and the fact it works well for groups. Several reviewers said they stayed for drinks as well as golf, and the place seems to deliver on the promise of a slightly chaotic night out that still feels organised enough to be enjoyable. What to know is that this is not aimed at little ones, and the reviews don’t suggest it’s a bargain. It also sounds better when it’s not rammed, with one reviewer saying they were lucky to avoid booking in advance and another noting it wasn’t too busy. For families, it’s best suited to older kids and teens who can actually enjoy the game and the atmosphere.
