A pub-gaming playground for adults will open in London, accommodating 500 people: what's inside.

Closure of the pub for renovations

According to The Sun: The pub in Battersea closed for a major renovation that will transform it into a popular adult venue for 500 people.

They plan to feature updated gaming machines and host themed parties, but Sunday roasts will still remain on the menu.

Updates at Four Thieves

We are talking about the pub The Four Thieves, which is famous in South London as a center of entertainment.

The venue previously amazed visitors with attractions such as the remote-controlled smooth racetrack Moonshine Raceway, retro games, VR games, and table tennis.

The pub is currently planning a major renovation costing £1 million, which will make it even bigger and better.

In August, the pub announced on social media:

“The Thieves are about to pull off their biggest job yet. We’ll be closed from Sunday 24th August for a 1mil+ renovation.”

“Keep your eyes peeled. You don’t want to miss this score.”

In another post, they wrote about transitioning into a

“new era”

“playground for adults with a capacity of 500 people”

The venue will feature

“games, performances, and parties”

“push the boundaries of the traditional pub”

New menu and entertainment

The pub will occupy four floors, with the top level being the Gambit hall, where visitors can compete in darts, billiards, and races.

Popular games such as Mario Kart and the zombie video game House of the Dead are also planned.

On the lower floor, live performances, ABBA-themed parties, social events inspired by Taylor Swift, cabaret, and themed brunches are planned.

The interior will also undergo changes. A modern dark blue bar will appear, surrounded by tables and large booths where guests can watch performances.

Renderings show a huge disco ball hanging from the ceiling, enhancing the party atmosphere.

The Four Thieves pub is located near Lavender Hill and has long been famous for its live performances, quizzes, and comedy nights.

It is a favorite spot for many, and one visitor described it on Tripadvisor as

“a hidden gem of Clapham Junction”

“a nostalgic night out”

The pub's new look will be unveiled to guests on November 1, 2025.

After the update, The Four Thieves pub promises to become an even more attractive place for cultural recreation. With a modern approach to entertainment and a new menu, the venue promises to satisfy the tastes of all visitors. These changes reflect an attempt to adapt to new trends in the entertainment sector, which may attract even more guests in the future.
