This actually quite a roomy gaming bar, tons of systems and PCs to use and play, it's hard to find something not to. I don't think they serve food but you can order and eat there but they do have a bar. I came for rock band night and everybody was super chill and having a blast. Definitely a great place to go with friends or a cute date night
Hosted my bachelor party here! I did a 15 player smash tournament and os nyc was the perfect place to do it! Branden helped set up the stream so those who couldn’t join could watch. Amazing experience and would recommend to those looking to host any gaming event!
Drink bar, gaming Cafe offering a plethora of consoles and computers along with board games and some arcades, very large open space high speed internet and high performance computers hitting 160fps on very demanding games. I'd recommend joining their membership program if you will come here on a regular, definitely worth it.
This place is awesome with plenty to do! The PCs and screens are high quality, and my keyboard and mouse were clean and well-maintained. The drinks were excellent, and the customer service was outstanding. We arrived late at night and had to wait for available PCs, but the wait wasn’t long. Plus, since it was so late, they offered us a discounted rate instead of the usual daily pricing—a much-appreciated bonus! Thank you!
TLDR: Gaming bar that is open until midnight in Chinatown. They have PCs, consoles, and much more but I won't be able to speak to it too much as I'm not a gamer. They also serve alcoholic/non-alcoholic drinks that are inspired by certain games -[WAVESHINE] $13 Vodka, lychee, blue curacao, lime, simple Ngl, this one tasted like candy haha and is inspired by super smash bros and tailored to Fox/Falco mains -[MAPLE STORY] $14 Bourbon, apple cider, maple syrup, lemon I got this in honor of when I was a kid, and I played the beta of Maple Story when it was released to North America decades ago I will say this one wasn't as tasty but that's my own fault as I'm not a huge fan or sour flavors and I knew that when ordering it I'm told they serve food too but we got there after their kitchen already closed Service was kind and the place looked cool too
Nice gamer bar with plenty of PCs and consoles. I used a PC and the specs were great, no issues at all while playing. Highly recommended to spend a few hours
I stopped by for a cocktail, not the normal place for me to sit, everything is computer games, an amazing place for those who love computer games, etc., the cocktail was surprising and amazing, the bartender was lacking energy, which I understand people come to play computer games, not to drink, in any case, if you are a computer game freak, this is definitely the place for you.
