A two-story indoor golf venue is opening in Downtown Boston

Just one week after an indoor mini-golf spot opened in Boston, another golf-centric entertainment venue has announced an opening date. Five Iron Golf, an indoor golf simulator and entertainment experience, will open in Downtown Boston at the beginning of December.

Five Iron Golf will feature 15 custom-built TrackMan golf simulators spread over 15,000 square feet and two floors at its 1 Washington Mall space, the former location of the Dreamland Wax Museum across from City Hall. Also on hand will be a pair of full bars with more than a dozen beers on tap, numerous widescreen TVs for gameday viewing parties, and plenty of non-golf entertainment like foosball, Golden Tee, and shuffleboard.

Five Iron Golf caters to both seasoned golfers and casual first-timers alike: In the early morning hours, you might find golfers using some of the company’s impressive tracking technology to hone their drives or improve their putting stroke before heading to the office. Come nighttime, you could find happy hour revelers at its two full-service bars, the evening’s games playing overhead, and patrons at the foosball table or enjoying simulator games like Monster Golf.

According to Five Iron Golf Boston General Manager Seamus O’Sullivan, who grew up in the Boston area and is relocating from the company’s Philadelphia branch, he’s hosted everyone from scratch golfers to people who have never touched a club before.

“We get so many people where it’s their first-ever experience with golf,” O’Sullivan said. “They’ve never even watched it on TV. To help them enjoy their first interaction with the sport, that’s pretty cool.”
