Best for families and groups with children 7 and over who want hands-on time in state-of-the-art F1 racing simulators, with Grand Prix watch parties on huge screens for the full race-day buzz.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
This suits families and groups who enjoy Formula 1 or racing games and want a hands-on simulator session with drinks and food alongside. Reviewers found it welcoming even for first-timers, so prior experience is not needed, though the focus is squarely on the driving rather than younger-child play.

“I have made a review in the past, but felt I needed to post this one again due to the fact I have never met a more wonderful team & F1 facility before! I recently had my anniversary on the 4th February 2026 and decided to take me and my partner for a couple of races on the simulator and a few drinks. I mentioned it was my anniversary on the booking “special request” form and I must say - everybody working that day went above and beyond. From the second we walked in, we were met with a smooth and friendly check in process - as usual. Our booking was at 12:50 but managed to sneak in a little earlier. Setting up the simulators was quick and easy with the QR codes & everything was in working order. Our games were extremely fun to participate in and my partner & I had an amazing time driving. After we finished, a staff member from the bar/waiting team came over and asked if we both drink Prosecco. Then proceeded to congratulate us on our anniversary & offer us 2 glasses to enjoy Post-race. He also brought over a few merch items for us to keep, including a few lanyards, bracelets, a tote bag and a cool F1 75 poster (that I absolutely love already). This really made both of our days, it was my partners first time at the F1 arcade and it made our anniversary that much more special. So once again, massive thank you to the team. I’m not in London often, but when I am, I always make sure to allocate some time for a quick visit. I was recently here for a watch party of the Austrian 2025 GP Qualifying, a few other times as well just to drive & have a drink. 10/10 will absolutely come down again!!”

“An absolutely brilliant experience and easily one of the most fun things I have done in London. I spent around 45 minutes racing in the F1 simulator and it was worth every pound. The motion rig completely changes everything. I am used to playing Gran Turismo at home, but driving F1 on a proper motion simulator like this takes immersion to another level. You genuinely feel the braking, cornering, and acceleration. The whole team was fantastic from start to finish. Everyone was welcoming, helpful, and created a really relaxed atmosphere even for someone trying it for the first time. A special mention to Eliot, who was genuinely great. Friendly, patient, and clearly passionate about what he does. He made sure everything was set up properly and helped make the experience even better. The venue itself looks amazing, very modern with a great energy, and you can tell a lot of attention has gone into the details. If you enjoy racing games or Formula 1 even a little bit, this is a must try. I would absolutely come back again next time I am in London. Paul from the bar was also very nice”

“I want to sincerely thank each and every staff member for making us feel so welcome. My boyfriend doesn’t speak English, and they went above and beyond to make sure he could enjoy the simulators and have the best possible experience. Their kindness and effort truly made a difference. We highly recommend it!”

Overview
A sprawling racing floor beside St Paul's Cathedral, packed with motion-rigged simulators that lean and jolt with every corner. Sessions run around 45 minutes, so there's real time behind the wheel, and the Octane Bar keeps food and expertly crafted cocktails coming alongside. On Grand Prix weekends the massive screens turn it into a watch party, with commentary and unlimited sim racing before the real lights go out.
