We know how difficult organising the office Christmas party can be but instead of planning the whole shindig from scratch, by yourself - why not let someone like Pop Playrooms take care of it for you? Based in The Rotunda building in Richmond, Pop Playrooms is a gaming destination, ideal for large groups. Across the venue, you'll find three different gaming stations: pop golf, smart darts and American pool.
You can book by game, if there's only one you want to try, but we recommend going for a group package which will give you more bang for your buck, as well as letting your team try everything on offer, and throwing in food and drinks, too. Voila, it's basically the whole Christmas party organised for you!
So, in terms of the games; pop golf is a nine hole course which takes half an hour and can be played with an unlimited amount of people. Throughout the course, players are immersed with music and videos from iconic pop stars of the now, with some throw backs, too. As for smart darts, this augmented reality version of the game records your scores for you and offers an interactive experience. Games usually take 60 minutes and can be played with up to 12 people per lane. Finally, there's good ol' American pool, played in 45 minute slots for up to six people across two tables.
Pop Playrooms also features an in-house restaurant run by Korean-inspired street food brand, Wing Wing. As you might expect, the menu is focused on crispy, Korean-style chicken and great for sharing, but don't worry there's vegetarian options, too. Expect dishes like whizzards - which are boneless, juicy strips of chicken, and cheese-covered chicken burgers, alongside tofu skewers which are brushed with a secret glaze. For those with a sweet tooth, Mochi Moons desserts are delicious for afters.
