Your guide to London's best pub comps

Foosball

Get involved with the game that Friends made cool again at Hoxton’s Bar Kick, an establishment that also runs the British Foosball League. The former shoe shop is a funky place to hang out and also shows 3D football games in the basement.

Chow down on freshly cooked food, sip cocktails, then get involved and challenge your mates. Join the league and work your way up the ladder, competing for prizes. Casual players are welcome, though. A great chance to get competitive.

Weekdays from 10.30am. Weekends from 12pm
126-127 Shoreditch High Street, Hoxton E1 6JE

Underground Rebel Bingo

Raucous, raunchy and a whole lot of fun, Underground Rebel Bingo features scantily clad callers, loud music and a whole lot of grubby sexual rhyming slang over three rounds of anarchic fun.

Then, the party continues until they decide to kick you out. Prepare for a wicked evening of debauchery – just don’t take your nan.

Sept 14-15. From 8pm, £6+
