It's a full service barcade. We were able to being in our own food and enjoyed playing pinball. The beer selection was OK, there were more choices there for the crowd that likes lighter drafts, but the cider wall was really well stocked.

Excellent beer tap selection. Pour your own. Brought the kids to play arcade games on a Saturday afternoon.

I've always loved the esthetics of this place, and the Dags game is addicting. I hadn't been in awhile and didn't know games had been added until a few months ago. It is now one of my favorite places and I love to take out-of-town visitors! The bartenders are always so wonderful and I love the addition of Shake It Up food! 10/10 recommend ❤️❤️❤️

Good selection of self-served draft drinks. Willing to spend more time and drink more if some games were a bit cheaper. Cool place overall.

Disappointing.

There used to be another arcade bar at the same location, 8-bit, that place had decent selection of local craft beers, a solid selection of local food offerings - everyone say hi to Butch's White - and they had a tremendous selection of arcade cabinets from classical games to newer items, including things like a working four-player Simpsons cab, multiple Street fighter variants, plus a decent selection of board games, all free play.

The new place has... Markedly fewer game offerings, the prices are terrible - I'm not interested in paying a dollar a round for pinball - and the classic cabinets are very limited. If you want to place to get drunk while you play skee ball, this is probably it, but if you're looking for the actual 8-bit arcade bar experience I would suggest going to the actual 8-bit in Peoria.

If the arcade part of the experience doesn't matter to you, it's a decent enough bar, services acceptable, it's clean, and they have enough offerings for you to be able to indulge in a variety of drinks.

Oddly slow to get food out of the kitchen. We had a group of 10, so I do give some grace. However, it wasn’t really busy foodwise, there was a server in a pink sweater that looked immediately disgusted when she walked out of the kitchen and saw our group. We waited nearly an hour and the food came out the plates at a time with quite a while between each serving. I ordered a grilled cheese. 🤦‍♀️ I showed the server, who was very nice, my last to come out grilled cheese- with uncooked cheese, my sandwich. We all paid our bills while waiting. She then asked if she could give me a coupon for a free appetizer for next time. Frankly, even if I didn’t live over 2 hours away, I still wouldn’t ever come back.

My family and I have been here several times now and my 9 y.o. loves it. It's a very chill vibe and the games are a blast. We've brought our own dinner a couple of times and stayed til family hours are over at 8pm on several occasions. My son loves it so much we've decided to have his birthday party there this year. Will review again after the party.

We had a blast in the new arcade playing pinball, skeeball, air hockey and the classic arcade games. There's claw machines for the kids and other family friendly games and drinks. Lots of craft beers to choose from and the bartenders were super friendly. Great atmosphere. Fun place to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon having fun with the family.

I really enjoyed the energy. The bartender was very friendly and engaged when he saw that we didn't mind. It's because of him, I'll be back.
