Came here after dinner for my partner’s mother’s birthday and 5 minutes after we arrived they started a holiday-themed trivia night. Had so much fun and ended up staying longer than we had anticipated. Cannot wait to go back next time we’re in town!
Y’all need to fire the man who works at the front. Literally the rudest guy ever. Always yelling at people walking in the front door. Filling out a form for a barcade is enough pain don’t need someone making it seem like life or death. Also him coming up to our group and yelling at us to put masks on while we were sitting at a table drinking when there was MAYBE one other person in the entire place wearing a mask. Ruins my experience every time. Me and everyone I’ve been with have hated our encounters with this one dude.
All good! IDK if they serve food.

Almost an entire row of pinball machines were out of order. Some of the pinball games were a lot of fun though. You can get a drink and play games with your sweetie. It was pretty dead when we went on a Saturday night

The pinball selection is interesting. There are some classic arcade cabinets as well.

Count on a good time, great crowd, some young and some older like me. It’s a good vibe.

A true nostalgia trip with the arcades, including the smell and setting! Perfect for millennials and older. :3
Crazy taxi was good. Not jungle rapids.

Great spot to play vintage games and have some cocktails. Games only take tokens and they do have a tendency to eat a few tokens but it's fun anyway. Somehow, I managed to lose my lucky £2 coin in a machine. Not even sure how it fit in there. I will definitely go back. I was really happy when I moved back to the area and saw they had survived all the closures during COVID.

Cool hangout
I came here for the first time with a friend and it happened to be karaoke night so we signed up. Once we got called up, as soon as we started signing one of the female employees (bonde girl) IMMEDIATELY started grabbing my waist and quickly moved down to my butt and I don’t even know this lady so don’t even ask if I asked for it because I did not. I didn’t know how to react so I kinda froze. She then started fully grinding on my friend without consent either and this went on for the whole song and we left after. I wouldn’t recommend coming here and i’ll never come back.
Excellent spot for cheap thrills and drinks. Wish the pinball was cheaper. Crazy taxi is their best game only fifty
