THE BASICS

We have a number of games available and the rules for each one do differ, but don't worry, our staff will tell you about everything that's on offer for that day. All you need to do is take a seat and get ready to play bingo!


While the rules do differ, the principles of bingo remain the same, so you'll pick it up in no time.

Before every game, The Caller will announce the game that is being played, for example 'single line', 'double line' or 'full house'.


If you win you must shout out before the next number is called. You can shout "House!" or "Bingo!" or "Here!", anything to identify yourself so that your ticket can be checked.

And that is basically the game of bingo!

REFRESHMENTS WHILE YOU PLAY

Bingo can be a thirsty business, so why not treat yourself to some of the quality food & drink we have on offer.

We promise value for money on all our menus.


Every club provide a selection of hot or cold food and snacks, with the option of a nice warm cuppa or a drink from our fully licensed bars.


If you're planning a party, then no problem. Just let us know in advance and we can make all the arrangements to suit you and your group.
