Cages Sports Bar and Grill has stepped up to the plate and hit a grand slam with its new, expanded location on the corner of Wuding and Jiangning Lu. Needless to say, the go-to for batting practice has made it to the big leagues.
Not just a bar - or a batting cage - the new indoor center has it all: squash courts, corn hole, darts… we saw people playing football and cricket, taking swings in both their softball and baseball cages, gearing up for dodgeball and little ones creating their own games in the kids’ area. They’ve even got bubble soccer, which they’ve started a league for on Saturdays (RMB100 to play with drink discounts). Balls to the walls! And if that’s not enough activities for you, there are 70 screens to ensure you catch all the games.
But let’s talk the truly important things: that post- (or pre- ) practice refreshment. Despite all the amenities, they haven’t overlooked the most important one: the beverages.
The menu includes an extensive selection of wines (RMB40/glass), drafts, which include two Boxing Cat pours (RMB40-65), bottled beers, spirits and over 20 cocktails to choose from (RMB50-65). Come in Monday-Friday from 5-8pm for happy hour: RMB25 Tiger pints and RMB15 off all alcoholic beverages. (A second happy hour comes in the formation of their preferred sport: Half-price Hitting, daily 9am-5pm).
For those looking to sit and stay awhile (and why wouldn’t you?), there’s plenty to eat - the plates here feature standard bar fare (wings/RMB65 to chili cheese fries RMB/63 to ‘head-first sliders’ RMB83) to six salads, Asian fare and sandwiches. There are also eight burgers on the board such as ‘The Pounder’ (RMB118), which features two massive half-pound patties and basically two of everything else to top them off.
If you're looking for a lively atmosphere or somewhere to sit and catch an upcoming match, welcome to your new home - a safe bet ensuring endless amounts of entertainment.
