St James Quarter welcomes interactive football and dining experience

TOCA Social kicks off its Scottish debut at St James Quarter in Edinburgh, taking 2,787 sq m on level 3 and 4.

St James Quarter, the over 157 thousand sq m retail-led lifestyle district in Edinburgh, has singned a lease with the interactive football and dining experience, combining immersive football-based gaming with modern Americana-inspired cuisine. The new brand launched its first venue at The O2 in London last year, boasting three bars, selfie booths, arcade machines and a Willy Wonka inspired dessert room, and has since announced expansion into Birmingham, and even Dallas in the United States.

TOCA Social will add 22 boxes and 2 bars in Edinburgh, while supplementing the other nine event spaces at St James Quarter that will host an array of fashion and music events.

Ed Corrigan at St James Quarter, commented: “TOCA Social has been something of a phenomenon since launching last year, their venues and the interactive experiences they offer have proved immensely popular and we expect them to be a key fixture for social activities both for local residents and visitors to Edinburgh.”

Alex Harman, President at TOCA Social, added: “The St James’s Quarter development is an amazing addition to the city center and is the perfect home for our first venue in Scotland. TOCA Social gets everyone up and playing – whether competitively or just for fun, alongside world class food and drinks.”

St James Quarter offers a growing list of names at the retail led destination, which includes & Other Stories, Mango, Zara, REISS, Bershka, Pull & Bear, Stradivarius, Miele, Next, H&M, JD Sports, John Lewis, and many more.
