Break out of post-Christmas sluggishness with some friendly competition. Our shuffleboard tables add a dash of excitement to the day, no matter your opponent. If you’ve never played before, shuffleboard is easy to pick up and can create hours of fun for your whole group, regardless of your prowess.
Explore London's Boxing Day attractions
Why not make the most of Boxing Day with a stroll through some of London’s festive attractions? After catching a Premier League game or finishing up a victory at the shuffleboard table, consider swinging by Trafalgar Square to see the Christmas lights or walk along the South Bank for riverside views and festive market stalls. It’s a great way to enjoy London's winter atmosphere, even if just for a brisk wander between pubs.
