It's located upstairs near the ASU Brickyard, between 6th and 7th St, in a nice hideaway spot. Their website right now is lacking, but hopefully they'll be updating it. The space is fairly large, with quite a few booths and tables strewn throughout. A decent selection of beers and ciders on tap and some specialty drinks that I saw.
Do not come here specifically for the food. This isn't the place to get a decent dinner; the food is basically just late-night bar food that you crave after you've been drinking: mozzarella sticks, french fries, some questionable-looking pizza, etc. The portions are all pretty small compared to the price too. Drink prices are totally reasonable, but just skip on the food unless you're starving.
Now let's get to the point: It's a video game bar. There are about two of each system lining the wall that are attached to decent-sized computer monitors. It looks like they have pretty much every gaming system, so there's something for everyone. There are leather couches in one area with big screen tvs with the newer platforms hooked up. People were playing Halo and Mario Kart and the like. There's also another area with Rock Band set up, which was fun.
Everyone was super nice and the place really exceeded my expectations. There was no cover, no fee to play any of the games, and it was great. I'm sure this will change in the future when they gain popularity, but for now, it's a really affordable place and very welcoming. We checked out a couple games with the guy at the service desk, and they have quite the selection. Everything is inventoried on the computer, so you couldn't physically see the titles, but the games we asked for they had, and they gave us extra controllers too. Here's a list of the games per their website: http://endgamebar.com/games/
Overall, it was an awesome evening full of fun. Next time we're going to bring some board games and lounge in one of the booths also. We had no problems with our tab and the bartender we interacted with seemed really cool. He let me try one of the ciders before I committed to it, which I appreciated. If you're into video games at all, you will appreciate this place for its unique vibe and charm.
