A few weeks ago I had come with a friend and had mistakenly been charged some items that I hadn't ordered, so I got in contact with f1 and they were able to refund me. One of their managers, Deo, was nice enough to offer me some very generous features on behalf of f1 to address the mix up. I was really blown away by the experience. Devin, who was on duty, took really great care of my guest and I in addition to our server and other workers who checked in on us. I was very grateful, the racing went perfectly also. Can't wait to come back!

This was such a fun experience. My husband and I’s first time doing a racing simulator. It was fairly priced. And although I came in last place all three races, I had SO MUCH FUN! Also the staff was extremely helpful and kind and we just loved everything from start to finish. Thank you !

I had the best experience on a weekday at F1 Arcade! The food was amazing and delicious cocktails. My favorite was the Miami heat! The steak was amazing and the tacos were perfection. Special thank you for Deo for taking care of me. He was so nice and welcoming! He made sure our experience was perfect and the service he provided was exceptional. Thank you!

We flew in from Seattle just to come here and we absolutely loved it! We did the Friday night sprint social and it was so much fun! Met a lot of cool people, loved the food and complimentary wine, had a blast racing and can’t wait to come back! First time driving a simulator and absolutely LOVED it! Deo was the best! Such great customer service and the ultimate birthday surprise! Deo hooked it up and made our first experience so special and so fun!

F1 Arcade DC is such a fun experience! 🎮🏎️ From the moment you walk in, the neon lights and sleek design make it feel like you’re stepping into another world. The check-in process was easy and quick, and the staff kept everything organized and on time. The racing simulators were the highlight super realistic and exciting! It really feels like you’re on the track. Whether you’re competitive or just want to have fun, it’s worth it. The bar and lounge area are also a vibe. 🍹 I grabbed a drink during Happy Hour (great $7 deals on cocktails + apps), and it didn’t disappoint. The menu has a nice mix of bites, from shrimp skewers to cauliflower wings, so it’s perfect for snacking while you hang out. The overall atmosphere is lively with plenty of screens, music, and space to relax before or after racing. You can come with friends coworkers or even for a date night it works for all occasions. 💡 Tip: Get there a little early to check in (they recommend 15 minutes before your race). Happy Hour runs 4–7pm daily, so it’s a good way to warm up before driving. Definitely recommending this spot to anyone in DC looking for something different, fun, and interactive. I’ll be back for sure!
