X-Golf Palmerston

X-Golf Palmerston brings indoor golf, mini golf and a sports-bar setting together at Gateway Shopping Centre in Palmerston, Darwin. The main attraction is a set of six golf simulators, giving players a way to practise or play in an air-conditioned space rather than heading out onto a course. The venue says its simulators are designed for players of all levels, so it can suit a casual hit, a more focused session or a social game with friends.

There is also an 18-hole Hey Caddy mini-golf course, with an option for nine holes mentioned in customer feedback. Reviews describe the course as challenging, varied and fun, with a full 18 holes taking about an hour for some groups. The mini golf is not presented as a children-only activity: visitors have enjoyed it with family members and friends, making it a flexible choice for mixed-age groups and anyone looking for something less traditional than the simulators.

Away from the playing areas, X-Golf Palmerston operates as a sports bar, with sport shown on the big screens, a licensed bar and hot food available while you play. The website positions food and drinks as part of the overall experience rather than an afterthought, and reviews mention pizza, corn ribs, honey soy boneless fried chicken and arancini balls. Customer feedback is mixed on individual food choices, but several reviewers describe the food as delicious, with the venue’s relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff receiving particularly consistent praise.

The space is fully air-conditioned and has plenty of seating, which is useful in Darwin’s heat and allows groups to settle in before or after a game. The venue also offers lessons, memberships, event bookings and X-League competitions, including group golf tournaments for teams looking for a regular mid-week activity. With parking out front at the shopping centre, X-Golf Palmerston is best suited to groups, families and friends wanting an interactive outing, while individual players can also use the simulators for practice or a round. Reviews repeatedly highlight helpful staff and an easygoing atmosphere, adding to its appeal as a casual entertainment venue rather than a formal golf facility.
