Had a great time here this afternoon. We had a head to head 5 race session on a Sunday afternoon for two people. Booked ahead but it was quiet anyway. Staff were polite and friendly and explained the session quickly. Great session, had a few drinks too.

My 12 year old Granddaughter is a F1 fan and we came upon the Arcade by chance. Popped in to check it out and was so impressed with the set up we decided to give it a go. We were not disappointed. The simulator’s seats are adjustable, so no problem for my Granddaughter. She thoroughly enjoyed herself. It was so good, we popped in again on our way home. The staff are brilliant and the young lady who gave us a tutorial (cyan)was very helpful and knowledgeable. She is a credit to the company. We will definitely be going again and perhaps next time we will eat and drink there.

Really enjoyed this place. Booked a party of 6 for two hours. What surprised me was the quality of the food. Pizzas and nachos were banging. The actual simulators were good too. It teamed us into 3 teams of 2 where we had 9 races each. And we got to race each other. Was a laugh. Plenty of time on the track and beers for £35... Really good value for money. Would definitely do it again and recommend if you enjoy driving

Absolute amazing place for kids.. Took my 10yr old, 14 and 13 Yr old... They absolutely loved it!!! The lady at reception Amani (I think this is how it is spelt) . She was absolutely amazing 10/10.. Extremely helpful and went out of her way.. She is definitely an asset to F1 Arcade! Came all the way from Manchester and was worth it!!! We only got sweet potato fries £6.. Found them very expensive for a small pot! Would definitely recommend this place still to others, we parked at grand Central car park which was approx 8min walk.
