Strikes Social
About Us
Premium games, great drinks, live sport and social nights out in the heart of Rugby.
Welcome to Strikes Social
Strikes Social is Rugby’s premium games bar, located on Level 2 of Rugby Central Shopping Centre, alongside The Adventure Zone.
Formerly known as Strikes Bar, the venue is now evolving into Strikes Social — a darker, smarter and more service-led social gaming venue built around great drinks, competitive games, live sport, events and proper atmosphere.
This is not just a new name or a new logo. We are changing how the venue looks, feels and operates, with improvements being rolled out in stages across the bar, seating areas, darts area, lighting, signage and service.
Our aim is simple: to create a place in Rugby where you can drink, relax, play and compete — whether you are here for bowling, darts, shuffleboard, crazy golf, pool, live sport, a date night, work event, birthday or a proper night out with friends.
What We’re Building
A smarter, darker and more polished venue with bowling, darts, shuffleboard, crazy golf, pool, live sport, food, drinks and events all under one roof.
We are working towards a more service-led experience, including welcoming guests, showing customers to activities and improving drinks service throughout the venue.
The transformation is happening in stages, with new walls, lowered ceilings, updated signage, improved lighting, refreshed areas and a clearer Strikes Social identity.
Behind the new look, we are still an independent family-run venue from Rugby, building something we believe the town can be proud of.
