Close your eyes and imagine teeing up at Pinehurst No. 2 or Pebble Beach. Now you can golf like the pros. Tap In, a golf "eatertainment" venue opening in Lower South End, brings a fresh take on the sport for both pros and first-timers when it opens Thursday, Aug. 29.

"I'm a big fan of personalization," Tap In owner Miller Safrit told CLTtoday. "So you'll tell us what type of golf experience you want to have, like if you're a novice golfer or an expert, and based on that and some other questions, we'll set you up with a course to play."

The 10,000-sqft venue boasts a central putting green with a variety of games, eight golf bays with simulators to play world-famous PGA courses, and two bays with VR headsets for a completely different experience, like Walkabout Mini Golf, which has hundreds of different putt putt courses.

The best part? No equipment necessary. "We will have bags in every bay for men, women, and kids," said Safrit. "We'll also offer premium clubs with a fee. If you bring your own clubs, we're going to clean those and check the balls."

The space is designed for more than tee shots. Tap In will offer a full food and drink menu. Think: hot dogs, tacos, local craft beer, wine, and signature cocktails. Bonus: An extra bay will also be converted to a cocktail lounge. Editor Maria, here. I'm excited to try the Wagyu skewers and the hot honey pepperoni flatbread.

Bays can be booked by the hour, starting at $49 + walk-ins are welcome, with memberships available soon. Pricing will vary based on the time of day and group size.
