Sixes Cricket ClubC+Worth Trying

170 Great Portland St, London W1W 5QB · Sports bar, Bar, Cocktail bar · 4.5/5 Google (1110 reviews)

Reservations · Delivery · Takeout · Outdoor seating

A lively, cricket-themed social venue with fun group activities and a bar menu, but service speed and organization can be hit-or-miss.

Why it gets a C+ for overall quality

Sixes Cricket Club delivers a distinctive social experience centered on cricket simulators and group entertainment rather than culinary excellence. Inconsistent food and service quality, particularly during peak times, combined with notably slow service, prevent a higher grade despite strong venue comfort and appeal. The venue excels as a celebration destination for groups and special occasions, but the dining component remains secondary to the activity-driven experience.

Restaurant Summary

Sixes Cricket Club brings a unique twist to London's social scene, blending the excitement of indoor cricket simulators with a lively bar and casual dining experience. The venue is a magnet for group outings, team socials, and birthday parties, with its energetic atmosphere, bright lights, and plenty of space for both play and conversation. Staff are often praised by name for their friendliness and ability to handle large groups, though service speed can lag during busy periods. Expect a buzzing vibe and a crowd that's ready to celebrate. Culinary offerings lean toward elevated comfort food with a British-Indian twist—think burgers, pizza, and an Indian menu by Kricket. While some diners rave about the food, others find it hit-or-miss, especially when the kitchen is under pressure. Pricing is described as 'standard for London,' but some guests feel the value doesn't always match the cost, particularly for food and drinks during peak times. The real draw here is the social experience—the cricket games, group packages, and a bar that keeps the party going. For families, Sixes is kid-friendly before 6pm and frequently hosts children's parties, with activities and menu items that appeal to younger guests. Reviews highlight successful kids' events and family nights, though the menu is described as 'limited but good'—expect burgers, pizza, and Indian dishes rather than a wide range of child-specific options. If your kids are adventurous eaters or just love the idea of swinging a bat, they'll likely have a blast. For picky eaters or those with strict dietary needs, options may be more limited.
