2 months agoFirst time going Saturday night. It was an amazing place mix of classic arcade games and arcade food with a grown up feel. The menus have me so wanting to go back and try more things soon. Ms. Tyler was on register when ordering my pizza and her interactions were amazing. Her vibe made the experience from order to eat amazing. She went way above on customer service and I appreciated it a lot. A+ customer service bar and pizza side. We got the 2 pair pizza and pasta combo and it turned out to be really cool in a new modern way that I wasn’t expecting. Got the hot honey sauce on cheese, and for one who don’t like spicy at all it was good.

4 months agoI’ve been here several times, and the vibe is always super fun. I recommend paying in cash because the card machines tend to glitch. The pizza is good, so I’d recommend that. The drinks, not so much when I ordered an Old Fashioned, the bartender didn’t know what it had, and it didn’t taste good. The beer, however, is great! Keep in mind that while there’s no time limit for using the games, other people are waiting, so it’s best to rotate and share. The outdoor area is awesome, and despite the cold weather, the heating works perfectly. There’s also free parking nearby!

6 months agoI loved this spot. The pickle pizza was amazing as was the mushroom truffle. $5 dollar drafts on Mondays? Yes, please! I like that they have different things going on each night of the week - I may have to go back to the singles night events on Thursdays. What a great place/way to meet someone. They had a ton of games, though I'd say some of their older games could use some servicing (sticky buttons or wouldn't take our coins). I had a blast. I'll be back for sure.

2 months agoKelly with Offline - Saturday night and the place was hopping! It was fun to see families and friends hanging out in a welcoming, low key environment. Compared to the Raleigh location, this is much easier to get a beverage and food. The service was great-quick and easy ordering of drinks and pizza. And the pizza was legit. We had a spinach artichoke with chicken that was tasty. I will come back!

a month agoI went out on a date night and we ended up here. It was my first time visiting and the experience was very good. I love the idea of a place like this. I enjoyed the music, games, and the drinks were delicious.
