Easily one of my favorite places. Very friendly staff, excellent drinks, and just great vibes from staff and clientelle alike. I cannot recommend this place enough if you love video games, or nerd culture, or just really good cocktails

Love it here! NOW OPEN ON SUNDAYS (since 9/11/22)! They’ll play football games and have specials Great prices for pool tables, video games and shuffle board. They welcome Bring Your Own Food. Some Saturdays they have a DJ and EVERY FRIDAY they host karaoke until further notice! Awesome for a weekend night out.

Super dope place. I love that you can bring your own food! Chloe at the bar was so great… top notch service from her! She went above and beyond for little old me over a cola… I’ll be coming back for the service alone! I was shocked they had machi koro but saddened when I saw they didn’t have the greatest board game ever, Sequence! Nonetheless, super chill spot with lots of gaming options for every kind of gamer

Great polite bartenders! The drinks were mixed very well and I had a great time attending a smash bros tournament here. It’s unfortunate that I’m pretty far from this place otherwise I would come a lot more often. Looking forward to coming Sunday!

Great experience. Went for date night and played pool and super smash bros. Drinks were great and grabbed food from next door. Bar tender was nice and attentive. Great date spot.

If you grew up in the 80s and 90s and love retro games, this is your jam. Plenty of board games to choose from, billiard tables, good beer, and an overall great vibe. Prices vary depending what you play and how long, so you can spend a lot or a little, depending on what you want. I haven’t had food here, so I can’t comment

Update: last 4 visits was very unexciting, very empty, and Friday karaoke is painful Fun place. Sometimes it's hit or miss with drinks, but either way you'll find a way to have a good time. Pool, shuffle board, video games, or board games.
