I've been to this bar multiple times and I have to say that the service has definitely gone from great to just bad. There were 3 bartenders at the bar and only one guy was actually attentive to customers and the other 2 girls were just ignoring mostly everyone and just talking to either each other or just one single customer and when they finally would see us waiting for service, they were kind of rude. It was a big turn off because this bar used to be so great and had an amazing, friendly atmosphere.

the young woman at the entrance was extremely nice but the 3 women bartenders were the worst i’ve had in orlando area. not friendly, not helpful, and cringingly rude and very off putting. they ruined the experience for us. i honestly wouldn’t recommend going there. but if you would like something interactive and fun to do in the area i would say the axe throwing. people were extremely friendly & welcoming. too bad they couldn’t find any friendly bartenders to work at player1..

Website has zero information about the place. Not one video game mentioned but there is three pages about what identification they accept so you can drink. Couldn’t get anyone on the phone.
Good selection of beer but the bartenders are unpleasant. Poor service coupled with being somewhat rude. I won't return. The girl at the door wasn't very friendly either. The owners responses on the reviews are exactly what I'd expect.

$5 to get in, $2 to start a tab to even get the chance to rent a 360 which is $5 with a limit of two players per console. Games can’t go to the bar where there is a 360 open to play, only goes to the consoles in the lounge since they are some mystical enchanted version that is located anywhere besides the bar. Everything here is to make money and not for actual gamers unfortunately. Arcade games have sticky buttons and feel like they haven’t been wiped down in weeks.
It was about how I remember nearly 10 years ago, and that's a good thing. Pinball is gone now and that saddens me. A couple arcade machines needed the screen adjusted or were a challenge for me to add freeplay credits and start on. The consoles are for bar tabs, and while I've done that in the past, I did not this time. Decent craft beer selection is available still.

Would love more food options. But definitely love the atmosphere and environment. Definitely worth the time

The girl at the front desk wasn’t friendly to us and unaccommodating. Wouldn’t let us in even though I’m clearly 40. It was a waste of our time going there.

A cool place to hang and grab a drink. Most of the games were working and it wasn't overly crowded so you were able to play a bit of everything.

The place used to be awesome.
Last time I was there was about 5 years ago and I feel like they had allot more old school console games available. Along with more of the arcade games actually functioning.
The Simpsons and X-Men arcade games, along with Marvel vs. Street Fighter, all had either joystick issues where the characters wouldn't move properly or there were screen blemishes. When i went to request 4 wii remotes to play Mario Kart at one of the booths only one of the remotes worked but on a completely different monitor. Another lady mentioned to me that she was having issues as well and we both immediately returned them. The service was very underwhelming. The ladies that worked there just had an attitude of I don't wanna be there. The host of Bingo, however, was awesome. One of the ladies told her friend not to have her name all the types of sour beers and didn't give alternative options to guest beer suggestions or what they liked. When I asked about a beer that listed Chipotle peppers, I asked if it was spicy. She responded with, it tastes great a very lackluster description."
Geo the Bartender was the best part of this whole establishment. He always attended to myself and other friends. He's respectful and a class act
