“Booked a coaching block for Valorant and jumped from Gold to Platinum in three weeks. The coach broke down my crosshair placement frame by frame — genuinely worth every pound.”

“The VR pods are unreal. Did the co-op escape room with three mates for a birthday and the staff got us set up in minutes. We stayed for drinks after and will be back.”

“Great rigs, zero lag, and the 240Hz monitors are a treat. Gets busy on Friday tournament nights so book ahead — that is the only reason it is not a full five from me.”

“Travelled up from Brighton for a LAN weekend and QuantumSpin was the highlight. The star-ceiling arena is stunning and the tournament casting made it feel properly professional.”

FAQ
Questions from the frontier
Everything you need to know before your first session on Hanbury Street.
Booking & pricing
Walk-ins are always welcome, but weekends and tournament nights fill fast. We recommend booking battlestations at least a day ahead, especially for squads of four or more. VR pods and coaching slots are best reserved online to guarantee your window.
Battlestations start at £9 per hour, VR pod voyages are £24 for 45 minutes, and 1-to-1 coaching is £45 for 90 minutes. All prices are per person and include unlimited soft drinks from the bar. Student discounts are available on weekday afternoons.
Facilities & gear
Every battlestation is built around an RTX 4080 GPU, a 240Hz display, and a mechanical keyboard. We keep a range of mice, headsets, and controllers at the desk, and you can swap peripherals for free at any point during your session.
Absolutely. Bring your own mouse, keyboard, or controller and plug straight in. Steam, Epic, Riot, and Battle.net launchers are pre-installed, and all personal login data is wiped automatically when your session ends.
Visiting us
We are at 52B Hanbury Street in Spitalfields, a short walk from Liverpool Street and Shoreditch High Street stations. Brick Lane is around the corner, so it is easy to grab food before or after your session.
Under-16s are welcome until 8pm when accompanied by an adult. After 8pm the arena is 16+, and our licensed bar serves 18+ only with valid ID. We host dedicated family sessions on Saturday mornings.
