Birdies Crazy Golf in Angel Review

12 June 2024

Birdies Angel Review

Enter a new world of surprise and illusion with Birdies crazy golf. Birdies, is a well known company that provides some of the best crazy golf to the capital and with its huge success, a new venue has opened. Offering 9 mind-bending courses, based on optical illusion and creativity, you’ll find yourself finding a simple game much harder than expected. 

Birdies is designed by interior designers and architects behind the team known as Shed. They had huge success creating & opening the venue over in Battersea and since then, decided to take on Angel Central in Islington. The team have a strong vision with a plan to open 20 venues in the next few years and a possible 5 more in London alone! 

For those who want to know more on the first venue, we visited back in 2020 and you can read more by clicking here!

Birdies Angel can be found in the central shopping centre on the first floor. We travelled around London and made our way via the Overground line to Highbury & Islington, which was then around a 15 minute walk to the venue. You can also use a number of different bus options which get you closer as well as the Northern & Victoria lines. Once you arrive in the nearby area, remember to head up to the first floor and you will find the venue pretty easily, opposite the Vue cinema. 

Let’s get straight to the reason of why you would want to visit Birdies over the rest of the your options in London. Birdies offer an optical illusion challenge when playing the game, with each and every hole offering something different and likely never seen before. If that is from the warped wall, plinko style hole through to the final duo spiral finish, it ticks the box of being unique & quirky. 

The venue only holds 9 holes and these go around the sides of the building, with a nice central round bar and seating area in the middle. This means, if you ever need a top up, you are never far away. Equally, once you are waiting to play or when you finish, you can see how everybody else is getting on. A pretty cool setup in our opinion. 

Tickets for the crazy golf cost £13.50 per adult and £8.50 per child however, there are multiple deals on. Monday to Friday you can sign up for the Sip n’ swing offer for £20, which includes any cocktail with a game of crazy golf. Student offers are also available and not forgetting the bar has a happy hour (or several) every night of the week. So plenty of offers to keep an eye on as they may change depending on the time your reading this.

The venue is open Wednesday to Sunday usually but during the school holidays, they do open 7 days a week. They usually open in the afternoon until the late evening with plenty of availability to take on your friends and family in this classic game.

Outside of the crazy golf, Birdies are known for their good times and cocktails. The staff working here were super friendly and are more than happy to assist. Whilst waiting for our turn, we took a seat and looked at the menu with more than enough options of your classic cocktails. Once chosen, the bar team are true pros at making them in quick time and properly. 

As you can see in our image, we all tried a range of different cocktails, from a Hurricane, Porn Star Martini, Sex on the Beach and a Raspberry Breezer. Each of them was what we were expecting and tasted delicious. From their luxury look and great presentation, we would highly recommend getting a drink whilst in the venue, as it pairs perfectly with a game of crazy golf in 2024! 

Prices do vary depending on what drinks you want and they of course have your standard selection of soft drinks, wines, beers and spirits too. Prices were standard for London but to make the most of your visit, go between 3-7pm for their happy hour. 

Ultimately, Birdies Crazy Golf have done it once again with their second home in Angel. They have provided the same high quality, quirky venue but in a new location but with some new holes, ideas and team. Our visit went smoothly and loved our time where we enjoyed our cocktail, the vibe of the music style they were playing and of course, the golf.

We visited on a Saturday late afternoon, and it was lively but not overly busy. Therefore, you can note that you can visit during the weekend and not be worried that the venue will be too busy to be enjoyed. Equally, they space out the groups to try & avoid delays when going around the course for maximum enjoyment.

We would like to say thank you to the team for inviting our group of 4 to London to experience this new venue. They did provide us with a complimentary game & drink in return for our thoughts and media.

For all the official information, you are best to head to their socials and website but if you want a further look at what they have to offer, then check out our TikTok!
