The vibe of this place was awesome. There is a large selection of old school arcade games and they are all reasonably priced per play. Some only 25c.

Fun video game bar with surprisingly good food. The Island BBQ pizza is the best.

Put your bouncer in phonics. Just because he doesn’t know how to decipher a driver’s license doesn’t grant him the right to scream at people.

Very cool barcade. Had a good time there with my partner. We split the daily special and had some NA drinks. Good variety of games and some classic pinball. I did however forget to close my tab! Hoping the added tip isn't more than 25%

This place is such a fun hangout spot-l've been a few times now and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is electric, especially on the weekends. Yes, it can get a little loud and crowded, but that's kind of the charm. It's a lively, high-energy bar that feels like a perfect mix of retro arcade vibes and modern chill space.
The bar service is super fast--which is impressive considering how busy it gets. You never have to wait too long for a drink or food, and the staff keeps things moving smoothly with great attitudes and quick hands.
And let's talk about the food--I was genuinely blown away.
The burger is one of the best l've had at any bar, seriously.
Juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Everything on the menu feels like it's made with care, not just slapped together like you'd expect from a typical bar. It's the kind of place where you come for the drinks and games, but end up staying because the food is that good.
There's also a giant TV that's perfect for watching games, fights, or whatever major event is on. It turns the whole bar into one big watch party, and there's something about cheering along with a room full of strangers that just makes it extra fun.
Whether you're here to play some old-school arcade games, catch a game on the big screen, or just hang with friends and grab a great bite, it's definitely worth checking out.
Loud? Yes. A little wild? Sure. But that's what makes it a great night out. I'll absolutely be back

the food here is absolute, overpriced garbage.
spent $40 for two tacos and 6 wings to split with a friend. does that seem reasonable? we both agreed it was not worth the amount of food and the taste of the wings was aggressive.
go down the street for better food.
