F1® Arcade London is where you can truly feel the thrill of Formula 1 racing, offering an immersive experience with cutting-edge simulators.

It's an electrifying spot perfect for social events, private gatherings, and an unforgettable day or night out with friends and family.
Overall we had a good experience, but I cannot say perfect. The booking process was pretty straightforward. We were required to check in at 17:25, but at 17:40 we were still told to go get a drink a take our time, so no reason to be there on time! During the booking I was also told that, because it was a birthday, they would have made it a bit extra special, but I fail to see what was extra special. The driving experience was nice and you can select different levels, but the seat itself does not fully adjust. You can only move it back and forward and the stearin wheel does not adjust at all. Nice bar, but the place gets very loud, making it impossible to talk even while racing.
Attended the Friday evening sprint social. I am on a solo vacation, and this was the perfect opportunity to visit F1 arcade, play on the simulators, and meet some friendly people! After arriving, everyone got a few rounds to practice. After practice, they put everyone on random teams of 4 racers and we all compete with 2 races each. Then, the top drivers have a final race against each other. The host was fantastic, announcing each of the races and the standings he added to the excitement of the competition. The Arcade itself is beautiful. The ticket also included one drink and flatbreads, which were fine but to me, it's more about the experience than the food. If I am in the area again I will definitely attend another sprint social!

Had a great time with friends at F1 Arcade which is located right next to St Paul’s Cathedral in cheapside. It’s a huge space with loads of F1 Simulators available. The food is good and came out almost immediately, piping hot. Service was seamless and friendly. Clean and welcoming space. Will definitely be back just for longer next time. Time goes very quickly.
Really enjoyed F1 Arcade! The veggie pepperoni pizza was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had 🍕—huge portion and super tasty (just wish they had takeaway boxes). The Amaretto Sour was divine too 🍸. The game experience was fun, well explained, and the atmosphere is amazing. The only downside was our server. When we chose not to pay the optional service charge, he asked us why, which felt a bit rude, and after that his attitude towards us completely changed. It dampened the experience a little, but overall the food, drinks, and vibe was decent.
One of my favourite places in london especially as an F1 fan! I’ve come for qualifying and my birthday and both times have been excellent! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great! Definitely try the racing simulator as well, i have never laughed so hard!! They treated me with a complementary dessert since it was my birthday which was so lovely and very yummy!
