Downtown Bellevue’s nightlife scene has grown up over the last several years adding a “Vegas style” nightclub, luxury bowling alley, and more. One thing that is still lacking in Downtown Bellevue is a venue with good ol’ shuffleboard table.

Shuffleboard is a bar game where players push metal-and-plastic pucks down a long and smooth wooden table. The playing field is typically anywhere from 9 to 22 feet long. The object of the game is to score points on the opposing player’s side of the table. The game can be addicting, and is a perfect way to spend a few hours at a bar with a group of friends.

Although I am not advocating for a new bar opening, I’d like to see an existing venue to consider adding Shuffleboard to their entertainment inventory. Possible candidates include Lucky Strike & The Spot Off Main. Both of these venues have adequate space for a Shuffleboard table, and already offer several entertainment options. Can you think of other possible locations?

Regardless of which establishment ends up adding a shuffleboard table, I call first game!

  1. Well, this was random…

    But I would think Lucky Strike would be best positioned to answer your yearning for shuffleboard

  2. Great idea, shuffleboard is awesome. Spot seems like the most likely Spot or possible Lucky Strike.

  3. I think what you are really saying is that downtown Bellevue needs a real dive bar. the kind of place that normally has a shuffleboard, pool tables, Golden Tee, dirty floors… lol The Spot is the closest thing but it still tries to compete with other trendy places in the area. We need a good sports/dive bar!!!

  4. The Harbor Club in Bellevue is planning on adding a shuffleboard table in their lounge soon.
