Flight Club Manchester

You walk into what feels like a gentleman's club crossed with a tech startup – all dark wood, neon accents, and surprisingly good cocktails. The concept is simple: throw darts while eating better-than-expected food, but the execution is what sets this apart from your average activity bar. The oche (dart throwing area, for the uninitiated) comes with proper scoring tech that does the maths for you, which means you can focus on not embarrassing yourself. The menu leans into elevated pub classics – think Korean fried chicken that actually has a proper kick, and burgers that justify the price point. It's the kind of place where you book for someone's birthday thinking it'll be a laugh, then find yourself genuinely impressed by both the food and how competitive you've become over a game you haven't played since university.
