June 2025I don't review much but everything has been 10/10 every time I've been here. The new differential is service and staff; phenomenal and so much fun. The game speaks for itself. Original and unique, incredible experience. Completed by the drinks and service. For real, must visit. Must stay. How do you do it?

June 2025John, Michelle & Courtney are simple amazing. It was my best friend birthday and we had the best experience. Service, music, cocktails and great vibes. Thank you so much. We will be back!

March 2025Visited with my wife during a weekday around lunchtime. Pre-booked online, and as it was just two of us, I wasn't able to pick a semi-private game area. However, on turning up, we were automatically upgraded to one for free. There were two touchscreen panels in the game area. One for selecting game modes, one for ordering food and drink. Both are easy to navigate. We only ordered standard drinks so can't say anything about the food. I can say we had a great time playing the games, and the staff were lovely and helpful.

June 2025We had an AMAZING time at Clays celebrating my friend’s 40th. We reserved one of the private areas which was great, maybe a little small for the number of people but good to have a separate space. Unfortunately, the kitchen was closed due to a fault with the extractor and we have food as part of our package but the staff said that we could order in but in the end, given the event, they ordered food in for us. From arrival until the very end, all of the staff were super attentive, polite, friendly and just great. The venue is really well decorated and clean, the live DJ was a vibe and it was just an all round great experience. Special shout out to John who went over and above to accommodate us and make sure all of our needs were met and that the birthday celebration wasn’t negatively impacted. Also shout out to Courtney who was super professional and accommodating. Cannot recommend this place enough. Didn’t even feel like we were in Birmingham!

May 20254 of us met up for the arcade package - essentially 2 goes each of 5 different games in the arcade area It's a slightly convoluted procedure that involves scanning a QR code, then registering on a wall mounted console then going into the arcade and presenting your new code to play We were initially caught out by not all presenting our qr codes in time, we didn't realise there was a timer and so we couldn't all play together for the first game Still, it was a good experience and thoroughly enjoyable. The explanations could have been a bit clearer We also ate here and the food was pretty good, the giant olives were actually brilliant The biggest negative was probably one of the bar staff, given this is a public facing role she gave off an incredible I don't want to work here vibe. Miserable, surly, grumpy you get the picture. She actually sucked the life and enjoyment out of us like an energy vampire!! If it was just a pub I probably wouldn't go back somewhere with staff that miserable but the arcade experience did make up for it
