Went here with some friends and had a great time. The staff were super nice and attentive! The games are so fun and its awesome that they are free (except basketball but that was definitely worth a dollar). Would like to come back for food it had a great vibe.

A great spot for adults to feel like a kid again with alcohol! Their food is also a must try. We tried their hurricane fries, and crispy chicken tacos. As for cocktails we tried their clever girl, assault and pepper, and notorious. Definitely recommend them all. Clever girl was definitely our favorite cocktail. Ps. This is a 21 and over bar! You can’t forget their games. They have some fun and popular vintage arcade games that are free to play. With very few games that do require payment.

This was such a fun experience! All of the games are free, so drink and play to your heart's content. Had a great time playing around and the beer list was good, too. Definitely enjoyed the nostalgia factor. They had older movies playing, too. Bloodsport was on the TV when we were there. They have a lot of older games and some much newer ones, too. The pinball was great and several different Mortal Kombats!
