With summer coming to an end, you’ll no doubt want to end the season with a bang, which is why we’ve sought out some of the best ways to see out the last week or two of summer with your mates.
So, if you’re looking for somewhere to go other than your local or a fancy bar in town, hopefully our top picks should give you plenty of inspiration.
1. Try out Bongo’s Bingo
Operating up and down the country, Bongo’s Bingo is always a fun night out. And they’re running some Country Specials to close out summer this year. So, grab your cowboy hat and get ready for dance offs, cheesy singalongs, a rave, as well as the usual hilarity that the bingo games entail.
2. Hit up an arcade bar
Arcade bars are still all the rage, with lots all over the UK and it’s a great way to spend a night out. Why not challenge your pals to a game of Mortal Kombat or Guitar Hero or simply while away the hours trying to make it onto the arcade’s leaderboards. And unlike your typical arcade, you can keep the alcohol flowing all night long.
3. Take part in an escape room like no other
If you happen to be in London, we’ve found an escape room like no other and it’s a great one to do in the run up to Halloween. This 18+ game is one of the most difficult and according to the website “Can your team survive a stay at the horror hotel? Check out is in an hour, if you stay longer you stay forever…” We'd certainly be up for giving it a go.
4. Have a laugh at a comedy club
There are plenty of comedy nights to give you and the lads a laugh, with up and coming and big name comedians taking to smaller stages to test out their material. So, if you find yourself watching reruns of Live At The Apollo or Mock The Week, we would definitely recommend seeing who is performing in the nearest city or town to you.
5. Visit Flight Club
If you’re after a bit of a slower pace, particularly if you have work the next morning, why not challenge one another to a game of darts? Flight Club has a number of venues up and down the UK and each oche area can hold up to 12 players. Plus, you can get food – including pizzas, fries and sharing plates – as well as drinks delivered straight to you.
6. Plan a pub crawl
There are now a number of companies who plan out the best pub or bar crawls, allowing you to drink your way around your city. Alternatively, you could plan your own. And if you happen to live in or near a big city like London or Glasgow, why not try stopping off at each subway station and heading to the nearest pub or bar. You never know, you might find a new local or place to gather with the lads.
Which of these nights out would you most want to head to with your mates?
