This was my second time here the first time I had poor service from a bartender who seems to be complained about a lot on here while watching another girl run circles around her. Tonight I had OUTSTANDING service from a bartender her name was Lexy she helped us the entire night, remembered our name for our tab and our drinks. She is one of the best bartenders I have ever experienced in any bar. She was fast efficient all while being personable. She completely changed my opinion on this place and I will be returning. She was awesome.

It was good experience! The vibe was great! Loved all the game options! Lots of space to move around! Only thing could’ve made it better was if we got some drinks! But that means we have to go back! Which we all said we would!

We had so much fun here, on our team outing! They have the most friendliest staff. The game were fun! The was great! I hate to say this, but, the sofas in VIP were to low for these arthritic knees. I thinking of taking my daughter volleyball team there as an outing.

Real or hype? Three stars says HYPE. There is a $10 cover charge for adults. If you’re coming with a group I would suggest making a reservation or arriving super early. We arrived on a Saturday just after opening. There were a decent amount of people there. All the games are free with the exception of axe throwing and the arcade games. There was a wall filled with different types of board/card games. Cornhole and cup pong were on one side. Large connect four and other games on the other side. Music is kept at a very low level. Drinks were just ok. They could use better mixers. The lemonade used for the lemon drop was gross. Definitely just basic mixology skills from the bartenders. But hey they can only serve what the establishment provides. Food was very minimal and mediocre. Axe throwing…hmmm…. You pay for an hour, however, it’s not solely the people in your group. The time you pay for is not exclusive to your group as others will be able to throw during your “reserved time”. It’s an ok spot. Definitely a lot of hype. From the outside looking in, drunk people always seem to have a good time.

They have a variety of board games you can play inside. I didn’t have a chance to go outside because it was packed, but I still had a lot of fun.
