New York, New York, April 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Five Iron Golf, the nation’s leading urban golf and entertainment experience, officially teed off on Thursday, April 6 with the opening of the company’s seventeenth location and the fifth for the New York Metropolitan area.

With premium amenities such as bag storage, locker rooms complete with showers, and towel service, Five Iron Golf UES is the newest attraction that’s open to all regardless of handicap.
“We are excited to officially open our doors on the Upper East Side to serve those who live, work and socialize north of midtown,” said Kieran Blake, General Manager. “Five Iron truly has something for everyone. For the avid player, we offer cutting-edge technology, certified instructors, the nation’s largest indoor golf league, and more, regardless of how much or how well you play. For the entertainment seeker, we are a true “eater-tainment” experience. Our full-service bar with local beer on tap and other classics, curated food menu, widescreen TVs, and custom neon signs and art, make for the perfect venue whether it be for a post-work happy hour or your next party.”
The dynamic entertainment space features Five Iron Golf’s signature design aesthetic, rooted in creating a multisensory experience blending neon lights, modern lounge furniture and local graffiti artists throughout the space, defining an immersive modern golf environment. The competitive nature of Five Iron Golf extends beyond the simulators with classic games like shuffleboard and Pac-Man, fan favorites for all visitors.
Opening just in time for The Masters, guests are welcome to catch all the weekend coverage and play while enjoying Augusta National-inspired selections like drink and food specials. Bringing the 19th hole to this Uptown location, locals and visitors alike are welcome to tee up good times with late night weekend deals, happy hour meet-ups and the ability to host private and corporate events.
