Loved this bar! My boyfriend doesn’t like to drink but I do so it was a great way to still bond and enjoy time together. Everyone was so nice and the blue shell drink was amazing!!

Great atmosphere- if you are from the 80's to early 2000's, you will feel right at home in this Retro Barcade. Tons of games on the wall, active and engaged staff who work in a place they themselves would and do hang out at.
Love this place, be sure to checkout all the events they do throughout the year

Large tables in the back for d&d or magic, fun drinks, and good quick food! Staff has always been pleasant, and they have pleanty of arcade games, board games, and choices of drinks. Always got something fun going on the tv too! Highly recommend joining the discord for event announcements like mtg drafts, mini painting nights, and much more!

Incredibly unique atmosphere, arcade games, over 200 board games, 16 taps, and some of the best bartenders in the area. What more could you want?

Good service, bartender on Sunday was stellar fellow. Pins could be better maintained, way off bubble!! But otherwise, very good vibes.

If you like playing games and having a drink, this place is the place to go! The bar tender was awesome! She had the perfect blend of waiting our table and letting us play games.
Food was good, prices accordingly, and they have your standard drinks to pick from.
Grab a game or a deck and a few friends and get going to this place already!

My coworkers introduced me to this bar, and I enjoyed every moment I spent there with them. The food is good. The drinks are superb, and the atmosphere is inviting and friendly. The staff are also welcoming, professional, and made me feel right at home, as though the bar was their personal residence and I was an esteemed guest. The feel of the place is what I love most about it! I look forward to visiting again!

Fun place with several arcade games to choose from in addition to the (hudreds?) of board games.
Food is nothing special, just snack foods warmed up in a toaster oven. We got the cheese curds and they were an absolute mess. We also got the mini corn dogs and they were slightly soggy. It was our first time ordering food here and probably wouldn’t do so again.
The beer and drink selection is great, and their namesake “blue shell” cocktail is one of my favorites in the area and worth coming for all on its own.
The games are great, especially if you have a group. Our only major “complaint” this time is the music was obscenely loud to the point of needing to practically yell at the people you were sitting with just to be heard. Haven’t had this issue on past visits though, so may not be a common thing?
