Always a chill Saturday afternoon. Free games, a quieter atmosphere, a better chance to play what you want, and just hang out with your partner or some friends. Solid DDR machine. We always stop in whenever we visit Montreal.

Great arcade bar with proper games, including some real classics! Anything from Pong, Street Fighter and Mario but unfortunately the Gorf cabinet was broken when I was there.

Second time here. A must stop for me when in Montreal. Pay the cover and get access to unlimited plays on arcade cabinets. Nice selection.

Great service, awesome drinks, fair prices, wicked playlists, tons of games 😎
I love this place, it's perfect for people who wants to play the old arcade games, drink a beer and hanging out with someone. Very friendly staff and the bar is always offering drinks service. The popcorn is free for the entrance price. I recommend it 100%

Super fun atmosphere and fantastic staff. Me and my australian girlfriend spent nearly 5 hours playing and drinking while making friends in the process. Drinks are fairly priced, the entrance fee gives you unlimited access to all the games. A perfect place to hang with friends.

Amazing welcoming atmosphere with an excellent variety of real arcade cabs. Probably best DDR spot in the city. I really wish there were food options available 🙏 there is movie popcorn though

The bar itself is awesome and a lot of fun, but the staff often lecture customers if they feel the tip isn’t sufficient. No one goes to an arcade bar expecting a lesson on Québec’s tipping culture or how much staff rely on tips. If the compensation isn’t satisfying, perhaps a different line of work would be more suitable. Staff should let customers enjoy themselves instead of turning tipping into a confrontation.

Great barcade! I've been coming here for years! They have free popcorn, and I usually get a Shirley Temple soda, and it's reasonably priced. They also have ice water. Very refreshing!
They have a wide array of retro consoles and arcade cabinets. They have a MAME machine that has loads of arcade games on it.
They have NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, and Switch games! You need to give in your ID to take out specific games. They have a PS4 but I think it's out of order.
Great music was playing today! Indie / Electronica. Including Kaytranada!
The only thing I don't like at the arcade is the bathrooms. The men's room doesn't have much privacy. And the stall lock is very flimsy.
Certain days you can get in for free! But it's better if you buy a drink, to support the place.
A few weeks ago, I came it was very noisy, due to a competition. I'd recommend coming here early when there's less people.
I'm pretty sure you're allowed to bring in outside food, but not drinks, I think!
Overall I'd recommend! I come back here often, and always have fun.

The arcade itself was lots of fun with many options of games for $9.50 including Nintendo Switch. As for the food, we enjoyed the free popcorn very much and the arcade staff were very kind and friendly to us.
My problem lies with the bar staff. For context, 3 friends and I were visiting from out of town and decided to get drinks for a birthday celebration. Between the four of us, 2 people did not tip as they assumed it was included (as it is where they are from - it was an honest mistake). Those two friends, once they paid (each of them got the Yoshi for $8), were lectured by a particular bartender scolding them for not tipping, telling them how it is not included and it is customary to tip and that it does not matter if we do not tip the arcade staff but to not tip the bar is a huge no. I understand that tipping is customary and what they were trying to say, but there is a way to go about saying that. I can respect letting them know that tip is not included, but to be scolded for that long for an honest mistake is inappropriate and they then tipped, but the scolding already ruined the night.

If you're a video game nerd. You'd probably like this place. Very chill ambiance.
Not all their games are fun, to be honest. But im sure retro gamer would appreciate more than I can.
Good bar and nice staff.
