Red Engine rolls out Electric Shuffle in River North

A new hot spot is moving into the River North area of Chicago, ready to raise the roof on social games. Electric Shuffle at 488 North La Salle Drive is an upscale gaming parlor full of tabletop shuffleboards in a spacious 7,000 square foot venue.

The Red Engine team opened its first location in 2015 and has grown to build establishments across the globe. Flight Clubs and Electric Shuffles are popping up everywhere, with many more planned in the future.

The company is knowledgeable about software and understands game development. The shuffleboard equipment uses state-of-the-art technology with camera vision to involve players in the games. Head-to-head games can have up to 20 people competing at one time as they take turns propelling pucks down the lane.

The custom-made tables are available for 90-minute reservations and offer a variety of gameplay. Patrons can build their shuffling skills while elevating their social game at the same time.

Shuffle will have DJs on deck at certain times and upbeat music playlists to build a festive vibe in an entertaining setting. Libations add to the Electric feeling with specialties such as the Spicy Lucy Margarita and the Salted Caramel Espresso Martini. Mixologists can shake up mocktails as well, such as the smooth Orange Creamsicle, for those who don't partake in alcohol.

No need to gamble on the food, the portions are generous and flavorful. Try the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza or a Classic Double with Cheese slider.

Brunch is served every weekend until 3 p.m. and offers items like the Breakfast Quesadilla made with flour tortillas, white cheddar cheese, eggs and bacon.

There are several event packages for complete buyouts, work parties, birthday celebrations or groups just looking for a way to unwind after a busy week.

Upcoming programming includes happy hour specials and holiday celebrations throughout the year. The patio is open seasonally and makes a perfect place to people-watch on La Salle Drive.

The inside is divine with vintage art, premium tiling and swinging disco balls. If someone is looking for a new space to socialize, they have come to the right place.

Electric Shuffle is playing with a stacked deck and Red Engine has a hit on its hands.
