This place is so freaking sweet! They have so many unique options for beers as well as a very fun and iconic video game selection. The employee Jessie gave us the grand tour and explained in detail all the necessary information pertaining to our crews and games, it felt as if he was purpose built(by god) to do this exact job. I cannot recommend this place enough, it felt like a total spaceship.

Cool little hidden spot for arcade nerds who like to drink. Great beer selection and many cool and unique arcade and pinball games to choose from! Will definitely be back 💖

1980's futuristic vibe with super nice staff and nostalgia that will help you properly disassociate, losing hours of time... forgetting the actual timeline and transporting you back to being a kid zoning out at the arcade. There's also lots of beer and cider to choose from with snacks. Bring the kids -yours or just any random kid - and blast to the past while simultaneously feeling like you're in a space ship.

Just popped in for a drink and some quick arcade play and really jealous of Astoria for having a fun spot like this. Great drinks on tap and cool basement like space with sci fi theme full of old school arcade games. Was pretty quiet tonight but those of us there were having an awesome time. Hope to return soon!

An amazing find that feels like entering a dream. I always try to go back when I'm in town.

I love this arcade - have been several times and it has the right balance of games, atmosphere & libations. I'm actually alcohol-free, and they have a big range of non-alcoholic brewed beverages including some gluten free cider options. Yes, that's just juice, but it tastes good and soothes the burn of not taking advantage of their great taplist. :) We just did our first Films With Benefits event - focused on Nick Cage - and despite the fact that we are NOT trivia buffs, NOT Nick Cage fanatics & were generally unprepared we had a great time. The vibe was first rate, the emcee engaging & good natured and everyone was having a great time. We bought our tickets for the next event before we left the venue! Has to be one of my favorite hang out spots in Astoria as of now.

This place is just so cool. Went last night with some friends and their kid and we were blown away. Sci-fi, cyber punk, anime futuristic vibe done the right way making it so fun to explore their menus and games. The owner was so kind and you can just tell this place was created from a vision and they executed it perfectly. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for unique hole in the wall places. Felt like I walked into an alley in Tokyo and entered a whole new world. Will be back!

Loved the look and feel of thos bar immediately! The bar tender wS great! Until we tried to play some pinball. Even though all the machines say insert Quarters here and tell you how many to insert, you can't actually pay with quarters you have to have the app which my bank card didn't support so I was unable to play any of the games. And why have labels on each machine that tells you how much in quarters it costs if the machine doesn't take quarters. And if your bank doesn't support tap to pay you can't play here

This place is home away from home for my husband and I! We love the vibe of arcades, but the aesthetic of this place is such a dream! The music, the lights, it's as if you are in a vaperwave star trek ship in cyberpunk world. Our favorite.

We didn't even have time to buy drinks or play games but this place is an absolute VIBE. Stunning, beautiful, magnificent beautiful interior design. I don't see enough pubs with unique concepts, but this one nailed it :))

Huge selection of games at a reasonable cost. No coin-system (fully electronic payment through an app). Service was incredible. Food and drink selection was top tier. Also a cool game with a backstory at the end of the spiral of games. Even the bathroom was cool.

Fun atmosphere, good beer, and some great pinball tables.

Henry Duhaime

Awesome theming, and games and bar in great shape!

Jake Kay

Had an absolute blast. A little muggy in there but absolutely worth it for the atmosphere, not to mention the great selection of classic arcade games. Highly recommend

Loved visiting here! The entrance in an alleyway makes it feel kind of like a secret club. I was at first grumbling about using an app to pay, but it’s kind of nice to not worry about having quarters. I loved the Les Schwab pinball machine!
