A new bar and social darts venue, Flight Club, is set to open in Reading on 1 May 2026, just in time for the Early May Bank Holiday.
The fairground-inspired cocktail bar will be located in the Station Hill development, close to Reading train station, marking the second Flight Club in the Thames Valley after the Oxford venue opened in late 2024.
The 6,211-square-foot venue promises a high-energy social experience, combining craft cocktails, sharing dishes and Flight Club’s signature “Social Darts” games. The immersive version of darts allows groups of up to 12 to compete, with auto-scoring and on-screen replays adding to the interactive atmosphere.
Designed with a Victorian fairground theme, the venue will feature carnival-style lights, carousel horses, and playful touches throughout. Food offerings will include sourdough pizza paddles, small plates and sharing platters, while the drinks menu mixes classic cocktails with Flight Club’s signature creations.
Steve Moore, CEO and co-founder of Flight Club, said: “We are beyond excited to bring Flight Club to Reading and become part of the vibrant new community at Station Hill. After seeing how much the Thames Valley embraced our Oxford opening, we knew Reading had to be on our hit list.”
The Reading venue will host brunch, post-work drinks, DJ nights and social darts for both novices and experienced players. Bookings for the new bar went live on 17 February via the Flight Club website.
