About 1st Base - Batting Cage and Activity Bar
1st Base in Southampton pairs a sports bar with a batting cage center, offering bookable baseball experiences alongside drink service on 16 East St. The batting cages run alongside table football, ping pong, a basketball machine and shuffleboard, making the venue a clear fit for groups, from stag dos and family outings to evenings with friends. Bookings typically include an hour or more of play, with the option to stay on once the games wrap up, and food comes as part of the package, with any leftovers boxed to take home. Dogs are welcome, and the room keeps an informal, friendly feel throughout. The bar covers drinks for those who'd rather watch than swing, and packages extend to an exclusive option for private occasions.

“Visited with my kids was welcomed by a lovely friendly lady. We had a very good time, they all had fun and was good laugh but also very competitive 😀. I didn't have food but the people before us did and looked lovely. Would definitely go back”

“Had a great time, Noah was lovely. Didn’t have food so can’t score on that. Would definitely recommend it as a great way to kill an hour or two. Apart from the batting cage there is also fusball, a basketball machine and shuffle board.”
