I've been here twice now. The second time was on a Thursday where they have free games. You should come within happy hours on Thursdays and you'll get a really good deal.The drinks are decent and the food is pretty good, surprisingly. I liked their chicken wings. My husband liked the pepperoni flatbread.Service is great too! Definitely recommend as a place to hang out and have a drink.

This weird security guard was standing right there to ruin my mood.It was 1:16 and they close at 2. I was going to my car after some other club and thought to play all the amazing pinball games they have, but he shut the door and kicked us out as soon as we got in. I asked him, what time you closed? He said now! What a jerk :/He should be fired!! We don’t need these kind of people as a gatekeeper.

One of my favorite places to visit to play games and have unique drinks. They have an entire room dedicated to pinball which I love!

Told us we needed to sober up and could not enter. It was 10 pm we were completely sober and it was our first place we were going to check out for the night :(

Great place to play classic arcade games. Also very inexpensive at $0.25 per play and has a good selection of food and alcoholic drinks with extremely friendly staff.

Decent games, and always overcrowded. Their holiday drink specials which are $17+are a waste of money if you expect any alcohol in your beverage, all ice and mixer. Food is just frozen bar apps, fun for the video games. Also has pinball.

Great cocktails. And they have mocktails for those who don't drink. Games are always a hit and fun for everyone at all levels.

It was a nice place. The service in the back of the bar was so much better because one of the bartenders in the front took close to 20-30 mins to even order and obtain our drinks.Poor soul was only able to handle 2/3 drinks at a time and was humbling alcohol all over his station. Even dropping some and having to remake another one slowly.The gal bartender in the back was my savior that night. I greatly appreciate her.

I absolutely LOVE this place it's super cool for date night, or hanging with a group of friends. The games are classic and the bartenders are quick and experienced.

Came in for Miracle Pop-up Christmas Bar early December 2023. The bar was so much fun! The wait to enter was less than 5 minutes and drink line was about 10 minutes but other than that, the games were all pretty much open to play. The atmosphere was a merry and nerdy fun vibe with tons of nostalgia. The crowd was even better here than at the other two Christmas bars on 1st. I'd definitely recommend MiniBoss over any other downtown SJ bar.
