| - Videogames and beer? What could go wrong? No, how much happiness can you take before you pass out is the real question.
Granted, we came here on a rather boring Wedbesday night so not much was going on. The place is easy to spot, mainly due to the flashing lights and deafening metal music playing (seriously, you can hear it blocks before you even get to the place.) Once we got past the eerily suspicious biker looking doorman (was checking our IDs 3-4 times at the door then following us in and giving suspicious us glances while we were patronizing the place still not good enough proof we could drink my friend???)...rant aside things went great once we were there.
I started off ordering some Hard Rootbeer called "Not your Father's Rootbeer" (isn't it just beer once you add alcohol?) It was my first time having such a concoction and not only was it delicious, but it was strong enough to get a buzz going.
Now, onto the meat. The arcard itself is really small. They have the time shooters game, Pac-Man, Rampage, Tekken, Centipede, Mario, pretty much all the staples except for DDR I think (which is understandable considering it's a bar for adults only.) Romance was in the air, I date action going on all over the place.
They give you free tokens with your drink purchases so as long as you keep drinking, you can keep gaming! The place is small though and there isn't much seating so expect a wait for the machines when it's a busy night.
Overall, I like this place. Always good to find some old school arcade action. It's not too pricey and the free tokens keep you going. I'd like to see them expand the game selection though. Maybe they can open a Cobra Arcade Jr's and serve rootbeer for the kiddies one day.
4 out of 5 stars
