It has a good vibe! I have fun everytime I go.

I've been going here very regularly for years now. The music shows are varied and excellent, the perogies are delicious, the arcade and pinball is fun. The atmosphere is very welcoming. I've seen a lot of staff come in on their days off to see shows there too. It is no wonder that this place is thriving, it's awesome.

Took my daughter to get a taste of some old-school arcade fun during family free play. Lots of fun! Would have loved to have access to the whole song list for Guitar Hero.

It is a very interesting concept that has more negatives than positives, unfortunately. The arcade cabinets tended to be older and unresponsive. There was a nice selection of pinball tables except half of them had flipper, stuck ball, and sound issues. The place is dark, dirty and extremely loud. The staff was very cold and not very helpful when inquiring about upcoming events. The perogies were small and very expensive. Avoid the bathrooms at all costs because it is clear the staff doesn't want to clean them.
I wanted to love this place, but the enjoyment kept getting sucked out of me by the constant problems.

Dont go on family free play days, people and their kids cycle through the same games for hours. Good luck getting a turn playing the game you want.

We were going to the movies at the wayfair and decided to check this place out to kill some time. Although we didn't play any of the games, it seemed like the kids would enjoy it. We decided to have a drink and a bite to eat. Hubby had the perogies poutine, and I had the jalapeños perogies. Both were amazing. Best perogies I've ever had (Ukrainian blood). My only complaint was that the cleanliness could be improved. The bathroom smelled like urine, but there were a bunch of kids in there...

It's like stepping into an old 80s style arcade, with many classic video and pinball games. But also one with beer and perogies. It's also like a basement punk bar, with good music, and a great inclusive space.

Brilliantly fun!

Played unlimited arcade on Sunday afternoon. Not too busy and the perogies were great!

Our band had a gig a HoT. The atmosphere was awesome and the crowd was amazing. Great and very professional service.

Place used to be great prior to 2020 don't know what happened, but the vibe is not the same. Also, they are charging more for the free play nights without adding anything new.

Perogies are delish! I've you haven't been here, you've gotta go. They regularly change the machines so you're always going to see something fresh (but old lol)!

Live music & excellent classic games! Great date night

great classic arcade games ! however there were a few things that led me to not wanting to go back again. 1. disrespectful and rude staff, especially one of the bartenders (the wizard i think). 2. my boyfriend and i both got food poisoning from the pirogies and i’m willing to bet that its due to the overall uncleanliness of the place. i understand that its a place for the punk scene but at least be clean behind the bar and in the kitchen man :/

Basement dwelling punk rock vibes with pinball machines and delicious perogies.
