# Beanbag Game Bars Toronto's Bangarang is a Place to Play Indoor Cornhole By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2017-10-23 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-bar References: [bangarangbar](https://www.bangarangbar.com/) & [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/BZrsZwoAQZH/?taken-by=bangarangbar) Bangarang is an all-new [game bar in Toronto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/board-crawl) that's run by the same people who introduced the city to the lawn bowling bar Track & Field a few years ago. This new cocktail bar serves as a place to play a series of games like indoor cornhole and more. Although cornhole lanes may be reserved for large groups or in anticipation of busy nights, all of the billiards games are free of charge. Drinks served at the cocktail bar include ones like 'The Old Kanye,' which is a sweet and nostalgic beverage made with rum, lime, pineapple, campari, apricot and chai.
