Bounce, a new social club mixing a late-night setting with table tennis, is to open its doors in central London later this year.
The £2.5m venue, designed by Russell Sage, has been built on site where the game of table tennis was originally invented by John Jaques III.
The 12,500sq ft (1,161sq m) space will feature a raised restaurant seating up to 130 diners, which overlooks a playing area with 17 table tennis tables.
A 40ft (12m) bar laid out in an arc around the playing area also forms part of the venue, which is the brainchild of entrepreneur and accomplished table tennis player Dov Penzik and the co-founder of All Star Lanes, Adam Breeden.
The duo teamed up with Joe Jaques - grandson of John Jaques III, to bring the concept to life. Joe, who continues to run the family firm, is a partner in the venture supplying the club with its oak table tennis tables.
