Fairgame St Paul’s Brings the Funfair to the Heart of the City

If you thought Fairgame’s Canary Wharf venue was the ultimate grown-up playground, think again… because Fairgame has levelled up in spectacular style with its brand-new St Paul’s location. Nestled in the shadow of the iconic cathedral, this immersive 24,500 sq. ft neon wonderland is an adrenaline rush from the moment you’re greeted by a cute giant, rotating 15ft duck guarding the entrance.

Inside, the energy was electric, filled with laughter and enjoyment. The new lineup of 12 exclusive games is as creative as it is competitive, from the lightning-fast reflex challenge of Joy Ride, to the giant indoor hook-a-duck (Beaky Finders) that’s an absolute must-try. Havoc in the Hive had us laughing out loud, and the wacky OAPrix mobility scooter rollerball was an instant group favourite. Every game is hooked up to live leaderboards, which means bragging rights are very much on the line. My friends got most of those bragging rights to be fair!

I found the games more physical and challenging than those in Canary Wharf. Though that could be because I’m very close to my due date and my belly made it harder for me. I mean that’s my excuse as to why I lost and I’m sticking to it haha!

Between rounds, you can recharge with irresistible food from Burger & Beyond, Alby’s Pizza, and Le Bab — the perfect fuel for another go at leaderboard glory. We all chose to eat from Le Bab before playing the games and there wasn’t a scrap left on the plate! Highlights definitely included the Paneer Le Bab and the Butter Chicken Le Bab! They were extremely tasty!

And yes, the famous Prosecco-infused candy floss is back, alongside funfair-themed cocktails that taste as good as they look or so my friends told me as I could only drink water and have a mocktail. They did look pretty epic and didn’t last long for sure so I think that’s evidence enough.

The atmosphere is just as much a star as the games. With DJs spinning every Wednesday to Saturday, colourful fairground décor, and that buzz of friendly rivalry in the air, Fairgame St Paul’s delivers non-stop energy. Whether it’s a birthday, work night out, or just a spontaneous evening of fun, this place nails the balance between nostalgia and cutting-edge entertainment.

I have to shout out to the staff that was there on the day I went (12/08/2025) because I arrived early and they took such good care of me, making sure I was comfortable and ok while waiting for my friends. They were all so kind and I can’t thank them enough.
