How fun is this place. During outdoor weather they had a patio out back with all kinds of seating and fun games. Inside there's all kinds of arcade games and seats. Servers were fun and lively. Great place

Was walking in downtown SJ Thursday night looking for something fun to do, and stumbled across this nostalgic little gem! If you are an 80s or 90s kid, you are going to have a blast playing arcade classics or some pinball!
The specialty drinks are themed and were fantastic! And I wish I could remember the wonderful bartenders name, to give her a shout out - she was fantastic!

I’ve never been to a bar and served a bad peach drink until tonight, or any drink matter of fact that was that bad I couldn’t drink. Not only didn’t it taste like peach but the worst mix of alcohol possible or went bad? Maybe expired orange juice? When I brought this up to the two ladies working this Saturday night only offered to remake the horrible drink instead of let me change the drink. Drinks are 13$ here for a single so it cost approximately 4 drinks to get their money back on a quart of liquor. But they couldn’t replace my drink? Poor service and definitely won’t be back or recommend to my friends who frequent uptown. Odd behaviour from servers for sure. It would be different if the servers had a positive attitude, or if I simply disliked the drink, but the ingredients tasted rotten and so was their attitude.

Disappointed that the games are now all pay-to-play. We used to be able to go and play the vintage games included with the drink price, but they now all take tokens. The server didn't seem to know about their Nintendo system at all, and the music was all higher pitched than it was supposed to be for some reason. We didn't stay long.

A great place to stop in with your competitive friends. Great variety of old games which keeps it fun. Clean environment and friendly staff make it for a good spot to visit at anytime. Washrooms are down a quite lengthy stair way in the basment which might be hard
Booze, carpeted wall, great muisc and nostalgia

Nice place. I am glad to see so many who are nostalgic about the 1980s. There are good arcade machines to play, and a surprisingly decent beer selection. The only issue is that they need to turn the music volume down a bit on weekends; it is sometimes so loud that you cannot even talk to the person next to you without shouting directly in their ear. The general acoustics of the place are partly to blame for that issue.

Games are mainly free, drinks are good and tons of places to sit.
The concept of the place is great! There are free machines if you consume and that's enough to have a great evening without having to pay to play. The cocktails are delicious and it's fun to have names related to the game world for cocktail names.
