Went over the weekend as it was super hot out and the drink flight slushees hit the spot! A bit sugary but def recommend for the sweet tooth fans. The Strawberry Banana was really yummy! The only complaint was sat a drink down to play a game and when went back to get it a server had taken it away. Other than that a very fun time!

The games were mostly working, only a couple broken. When buying credits, there is a bonus you get that explicitly states “*BONUS PLAY allows you play all of the games in the Arcade including redemption, photos and cranes”. This is absolutely not true. I was unable to find a single game that gave tickets that could be played (which is most) and absolutely none of the cranes worked. The value just isn’t good here. The bartender didn’t appear to like people all that much and was missing in action quite a bit. Drinks were interesting but overpriced. Overall, just meh.

I had a very bad experience. Over the weekend (Saturday night) we hosted our team outing here. We had it reserved for a party of 30 people. Food all ordered, a 2 drink tickets per person at 8$ each ticket, told they can get any drink. Our outing was scheduled weeks in advance. This was to prepare because people do not live close. Then at 3:30 day of get a phone call saying all of our food has been cancelled, because the place they get their food the night before everybody walked out and quit. You can imagine my surprise and panic. So at this point I’m on the hunt with only 2 hours to find food to be catered for 30 people. They agreed to let me bring the food in. Then we get their and guest start to arrive and we’re told we only have seats for 15 people. At that point I was very irritated. So half our group had to stand. We made it work. Very unorganized. Then at the end of visit we get the bill, and low an behold we get no sort of discount for all this mess, we get charged 25$ for some drinks saying they can’t honor the drink tickets we purchased. Never did they specify what could be purchased for the drink tickets. Never received any apology for all of this. The 2 person staff was rude and made us feel like we were the inconvenience even though we booked this even weeks in advance. I will definitely not be hosting any more team outings at this place. Nor will I be back.

This fun arcade has about all the games you can handle for a couple hours. Plenty of drink options- but NO, they don’t serve unsweet tea. It’s minus half star for me for that lol. But everyone else got all they could handle, and the champion of the night was not the guy who said he would win every game all night long! At the end though, we all had fun and won tickets. It’s about a quarter the size of the popular game arcade bar you might know of, but this place isn’t for kids, so you don’t need all the space!

The operating room is a fun hospital themed arcade. They have decent food and drink options. After a certain time they don’t allow kids so you have to enjoy with adults as well

Super clean. Helpful staff with the games and plenty of games too. The Slushies are super yummy but 5 dollars is a bit high.
Most games are a dollar. They have pizza and some other foods as well.

I am so glad we found this place. We just walked by on our way somewhere else and ended up spending over two hours here and loved it!
The place is very clean, unlike a similar arcade bar downtown. Staff were very nice. There were a lot of different games, all worked great and a nice mix of modern and retro games.
Lots of pinball, ski ball, a huge Pac man game, several shooting games, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros, Asteroids, Tron, a Pac Man themed air hockey, Cruising USA, the list goes on.
Prices for the games are between 50 cents and $1. Drinks are typical upscale bar prices. I would gladly pay these prices for a cool, modern, and clean barcade like this.
The decor is so awesome too. The walls are covered in chalk writing of different science and medical drawings and info. There were plenty of seats too. We will certainly make this a regular hang out place!

So much fun! You can play for tickets or just for fun. Alcoholic slushies are tasty, I highly recommend the mango flavor! Cocktails are reasonable, and with $50 of play, you get an extra $10; good for 2 ppl to play for 2 hours.

Worst bar I’ve ever been to. Came here with a group and watched the bartender refuse to serve alcohol to someone soher that showed valid government issued ID. No explanation. No apology. Just attitude. If they’re going to pick and choose who gets business we’ll take ours somewhere more respectful and consistent, not worth all the hassle. Also SOOOO expensive

Completely enjoyed my experience here today with my fourteen year old son. Typical bar food, but done well. We ordered a pizza and chicken wings. It came out hot and fresh and tasted very good. Staff was very friendly and genuinely happy to serve and make sure we where having a good time. It was a little chilly in the building so if you are going durring the day when there are not a lot if people I would suggest a hoodie or something if you tend to get cold like I do. The game selection was good and we had a lot of fun playing games with each other. Will be going back for sure.
