Golf Fang Liverpool: The 2026 Insider’s Guide to the Baltic Triangle’s Wildest Venue
Forget windmills, silence, and sweater vests. If you are looking for a polite round of putting, you are in the wrong postcode. Golf Fang Liverpool is an assault on the senses in the best possible way. Located deep in the heart of the Baltic Triangle, this isn’t just mini-golf; it is a “sprayground” of graffiti, cocktails, and hip-hop basslines that has completely rewritten the rules of a night out in the North West.
Formerly known as Ghetto Golf, the venue rebranded to Golf Fang to reflect its massive expansion across the UK, but let’s be clear: the Liverpool site remains the spiritual home. It’s gritty, it’s loud, and frankly, it’s iconic.
Whether you are planning a stag do that needs to go down in history, or a date night that avoids awkward silences, this guide breaks down everything you need to know for 2026. From the new £10 Winter Sale to the high-tech Throwies AR Darts, we are diving deep into the Cains Brewery Village’s most famous export.
What’s New at Golf Fang Liverpool in 2026?
The venue hasn’t stood still. If you haven’t visited since 2024, you are missing out on major upgrades. The team behind the Big Fang Collective has pushed hard into “competitive socializing” tech, meaning you can now do a lot more than just swing a putter.
The 2026 Winter Sale: How to Get £10.00 Rounds
Let’s talk cash. January and February can be tight, but Golf Fang has dropped a massive incentive to get you off the sofa. According to the Golf Fang Official Website (2026), the venue has launched a “Winter Sale” where standard rounds of golf are slashed to just £10.00 per person.
This is a significant drop from the usual peak pricing of £15.00+.
- When: Available Sunday to Thursday (and selected Friday slots).
- The Catch: These slots fill up fast. You can’t just roll up to the door on a Friday night expecting this rate.
- Pro-Tip: Book a slot before 5 PM on a Friday to snag the discount before the evening rush kicks in.
Throwies: The Rise of AR Darts in the Baltic Triangle
Darts used to mean a dusty board in a quiet pub. Not anymore. Golf Fang has introduced Throwies, their take on Augmented Reality (AR) darts.
We aren’t talking about mental arithmetic here. The board does the maths for you. The projectors overlay game modes directly onto the board, tracking every throw with precision sensors. You can play games like Killer, Shanghai, or simpler territory-capture games that are perfect for groups who have had a few cocktails.
My Experience Note: I tried Throwies with a group of four last month. The best part isn’t the accuracy; it’s the lack of arguing over the score. The system is instant. Plus, the booth seating area is huge, so you aren’t elbowing strangers while you throw.
Big Fang Karaoke: Retro-Futurism & “Dead Tech” Themes
Karaoke rooms are often an afterthought in these venues, but Golf Fang went all out with their 2026 expansion. The new rooms are designed around a “Dead Tech” aesthetic, think walls covered in old VHS tapes, CRTs, and glitch-art visuals. It fits the Baltic Triangle vibe perfectly.
These are private pods, soundproofed enough that you can scream Oasis without embarrassing yourself to the golfers outside.
The 18-Hole Journey: More Than Just Crazy Golf
Walking into the course feels like stepping onto a movie set that has been tagged by every street artist in Liverpool. The venue is housed in a cavernous warehouse in the Cains Brewery Village, and they utilize every inch of vertical space.
Iconic Holes & Local Graffiti Art
The course is a “twisted” 18-hole journey. You aren’t just putting on green felt; you are navigating through:
- The Jeremy Kyle Studio: Yes, really. A living room set straight out of daytime TV hell.
- The Blockbuster Video Store: A nostalgia trip complete with empty VHS cases.
- The Toilet: Putting into a literal toilet bowl (clean, thankfully).
Every wall is covered in art. Golf Fang employs local graffiti artists to keep the venue looking fresh. It’s chaotic, colourful, and specifically designed to be “Instagrammable” without feeling forced.
Adult Themes: Why it’s Strictly 18+
This is a crucial point for families: Golf Fang Liverpool is strictly 18+.
[VisitLiverpool – Golf Fang Listing]
You will see risqué artwork, hear uncensored hip-hop playlists, and spot plenty of adult humour on the course props. Security at the door will check ID regardless of how old you look (Challenge 25 is strictly enforced), so do not leave your license at home.
Dining at “Nothing Cheezy”: 2026 Menu Highlights
You will work up an appetite after 18 holes. Golf Fang partners with the in-house street food brand Nothing Cheezy. They specialize in food that you can eat with one hand while holding a drink in the other.
Here is a look at the 2026 menu pricing and favourites:
| Item | Price (Approx) | Description |
| Bacon Cheezburger Pizza | £11.50 | A heavy hitter. Smashed beef patties, bacon, and house cheese blend on a pizza base. |
| Buffalo Soldier Fries | £8.00 | Loaded fries topped with buffalo sauce, blue cheese dressing, and crispy onions. |
| Vegan Tenders | £7.50 | Surprisingly good texture. Served with a sticky BBQ dip. |
| Nachos Mountain | £9.00 | Huge portion. Good for sharing between 2-3 people mid-game. |
Drink Strategy: The bar is famous for its “Golfers Delight” cocktails. If you are in a group, skip the singles and go for the 1.5L Shared Hip-Flasks. It’s cheaper than buying individual rounds and saves you queueing at the bar halfway through the course.

According to the official site, the 2026 hours are:

Getting There: Cains Brewery Village & Parking
Address: Stanhope St, Liverpool L8 5XJ.
The Baltic Triangle is walkable from Liverpool One (about 15-20 minutes), but if you are wearing heels or it’s raining, just grab a cab.
- Parking: There is on-street parking on Stanhope Street and a Pay & Display car park right opposite the Cains Brewery gates. It fills up massive on weekends.
Pro-Tip Callout:
Arrive Early: Your booking time is your Tee-Off time. Arrive 30 minutes early to get through security, check your coats, and grab that first drink. If you are late, you might lose your slot.
Group Bookings: Stags, Hens, and 2026 Corporate Packages
Golf Fang is a magnet for stag and hen parties because it solves the “what do we do before the club?” problem.
The “Bottomless” Options
For 2026, they have refined their package deals. You can now book “The G.O.A.T Package”, which typically includes:
- A round of golf.
- A drink on arrival.
- A food voucher for Nothing Cheezy.
For corporate teams, the “Bottomless Darts” option is a winner. It keeps everyone in one place (the booth) rather than spreading them out across the golf course, making it better for actual chatting and networking.
How to Book Large Groups:
- Don’t use the standard web checkout for groups of 12+.
- Use the “Enquiry” form on their site.
- Ask for a dedicated host if you have over 20 people, it helps move things along.
Golf Fang vs. Competitors: Why It Still Dominates Liverpool
Liverpool is the capital of competitive socializing in the UK. So, why choose Golf Fang over the others?
- vs. Junkyard Golf: Junkyard is great, but Golf Fang (Liverpool) feels more “authentic” to the city because of its Ghetto Golf roots. The course is grittier, and the music is louder. Junkyard feels a bit more polished/commercial; Golf Fang feels like a warehouse rave.
- vs. Roxy Ball Room: Roxy is better if you want variety (ping pong, pool, shuffleboard all in one). But if you want a dedicated, immersive visual experience, Golf Fang wins on aesthetics alone.
