Playing games in bars can be a great way to socialize and have fun with friends. There are a variety of games that are commonly found in bars, including darts, foosball, and pool.
Darts is a popular game that can be played by individuals or teams. The objective of the game is to throw darts at a dartboard, with the goal of hitting specific areas of the board for the highest scores. Many bars have dartboards set up for customers to play on, and some even host dart leagues. We have found several bars in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria where you can play darts! For example, Bar San Remo, where we have our weekly community meetup!
Foosball, also known as table soccer, is another game that is often found in bars. This game is played on a small table with miniature figures attached to rods, which players use to move a ball across the table. Foosball can be a fast-paced and competitive game that is great for groups of friends to play together. So far, we know of one bar where you can paly foosball. If you know of any more, please share in the recommendations!
Pool, or billiards, is another classic game that is often found in bars. This game is played on a large table with pockets in the corners and sides. The objective of the game is to use a cue stick to hit balls into the pockets. Pool is a popular game for people of all ages, and many bars have at least one pool table available for customers to play on.
All in all, playing games in bars can be a fun and social way to spend an evening out. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just looking for a casual game, there’s something for everyone. So next time you’re out at a bar, why not challenge your friends to a game of darts, foosball or pool?
If you’re looking to play table tennis; we haven’t found any of these in bars in Las Canteras area, but you can play table tennis in Centro Commercial La Ballena.
