Although it may appear to be a game of the past, Flight Club Atlanta offers a more modern way to relive it.
My daughters and I recently tried playing new versions of dart games, even though we are beginners. Playing darts requires good hand-eye coordination and accuracy in aiming and hitting specific parts of the target board. With various dart game options, we enjoyed learning how to play at Flight Club Atlanta.
About Flight Club Atlanta
Flight Club Atlanta is a new and exciting social destination in Atlanta, situated in the lively art district of West Midtown. It boasts British fairground-inspired decorations, expertly crafted cocktails, delectable food, an unmatched Social Darts experience, and a beautiful outdoor patio that offers stunning views of the city's skyline.
Flight Club offers an exhilarating experience through innovative technology that enables groups of 2-550 players to engage in fast-paced, multiplayer games. Social Darts is designed to unite people of all skill levels, from darts novices to self-proclaimed pros.
Upon our arrival at Flight Club Atlanta, our attentive host promptly escorted us to our designated playing area. They provided us with clear instructions on how to get set up. Also, they explained the varying levels of difficulty for the dart games.
Before we started playing, the three of us had to get our picture taken to be added to the scoreboard. This helps let us know who is up next and what everyone's score is. But, of course, Lauren didn't want her picture taken, and she didn't have to because if you're camera shy, there is a button to press to create an image for you.
Prior to deciding on a game to play, we decided to sample the food first. The menu offers a variety of delicious shareable bites, including flavorful international-inspired dishes like Lumpia, Tandoori Chicken Skewers, and Lobster Elote Dip, to name a few.
Every dish we selected was absolutely delicious! It's evident that each meal is made with high-quality gourmet ingredients. I didn't expect that; I thought it would be the typical bar food.

We chose an easy one for our first game to warm up and learn how to throw darts correctly. And thanks to the markers on the floor showing where to stand to help those of us amateurs a good spot to throw the darts to the bullseye, and helps with our aim. As we started getting the hang of it, we challenged ourselves with upper-level games.
After a winner throws the winning shot, the scoreboard shows a replay video of the winner's reaction! Also, you can relive the big moment again the following day when Flight Club sends the winner videos through email.
From the carnival-style decor, fun dart games, and savory foods, Flight Club was an exciting first experience!
