Ghetto Golf in Liverpool

A visit to Ghetto Golf in Liverpool.

In October last year we met up with our friend and old Dodgeball rival 'Rowdy' Russell Fenner in Liverpool and swung by the Ghetto Golf indoor Crazy Golf course at Cains Brewery.

Ghetto Golf in Liverpool became the 847th visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

That's a real fruit machine on the course

I wouldn't fancy looking in this fridge

A pot(ting) shed 

The green 

There's a very BIG minion at the course 

Some Ghostbusters graffiti

Tenpin bowling golf 

The UV section of the course features a number of video-game characters

Space Invaders!

Pac-Man is there too!

We've also been to the Ghetto Golf course in Digbeth, Birmingham. That venue was the 780th course visited on our minigolfing travels.

Ghetto Golf at the Custard Factory in Birmingham

A revisit to the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham.

Over the weekend we revisited the Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham. Last year the indoor Crazy Golf course became the 780th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Ghetto Golf is a Cool Spot to visit

Sonic the Hedgehog appears on the final hole (Final Zone?)

Super Mario can be found on the course too

As can Donkey Kong!

The final few holes are all retro videogame related

I love this piece of artwork and the use of the wall

Hole 1 at Ghetto Golf

The last Blockbuster in the UK?

A sporting hybrid of tenpin bowling and minigolf

There's also a Ghetto Golf course in Liverpool that we're yet to visit. Check out the Ghetto Golf website for opening times and prices.

Ghetto Golf in Birmingham

A visit to the new Ghetto Golf course in Digbeth, Birmingham.

Hole 18 of the Ghetto Golf course in Digbeth

While on a recent visit to Birmingham I swung by the new Ghetto Golf course at the Custard Factory in Digbeth.

Ghetto Golf's entrance

Unfortunately I didn't have time for a game on the 18-hole indoor Crazy Golf course as I had a train to catch. The course was looking nice and busy during my later afternoon visit.

Some of the holes look amazing - I love the Sonic the Hedgehog loop-di-loop 18th.

It looks like Ghetto Golf could be a blockbuster venue

Some of the holes are rather risque!

I'm looking forward to a game with Emily at Ghetto Golf in Birmingham (and at the Liverpool course).

Hole 3 is a bus

Yes, an actual bus!

 

There's plenty of seating to celebrate your win (or grouch about your loss) at Ghetto Golf

Visit the Ghetto Golf website for more information, opening times and prices.

It's always fun seeing Simpsons artwork

On my last trip to Birmingham I had a sneak peak at the indoor Crazy Golf course while it was under construction. It looks like the team at Ghetto Golf have done a marvellous job of converting the old hall at the Custard Factory into the minigolf course!

Ghetto Golf in Digbeth, Birmingham

A sneak peak at the new Ghetto Golf indoor Crazy Golf course at The Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham.

On a recent trip to Birmingham I had a couple of hours to kill before my train back to Stockport so I had a wander to The Custard Factory in Digbeth to see if I could see any sign of the new Ghetto Golf course that is being built there.

Looking around I couldn't see any signs or branding for the course and having had a good walk around the area I guessed it could only be in one location - a hall next to an arch in the railway viaduct - so I made my inquiries there. I was right as the brand new 18-hole indoor Crazy Golf is under construction inside.

What's in the box?

It was great to meet Kip and Dan - the brains behind Ghetto Golf - and have a walk around the course. There are a LOT of things I wasn't expecting to see there and plenty of obstacles and hole designs I haven't seen before. Quite an achievement as the course visit was the 780th on my Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since 2006! It was nice to see there's going to be an indoor black light UV section of the layout too.

I can't give too much away, but if you like your minigolf to be quirky and enjoy a drink and a laugh you'll enjoy Ghetto Golf. The team at the course have been posting some teaser photos from the course on their Facebook page so do give it a like to see what's in store (quite literally in terms of the Blockbuster hole they've created!).

Ghetto Golf opens at The Custard Factory in Digbeth, Birmingham on Friday 13th October. Check out the Ghetto Golf website for more information, opening times, prices and booking details.

If you can't wait that long you can visit the original Ghetto Golf course at Cains Brewery in Liverpool. We need to find some time to get over to Liverpool for a round there soon.
