Went last night on a Groupon deal, great that the 4 of us were able to get it on a Saturday. We were given a booth seating area and the cocktail menu choice was good, very flavoursome. Although we didn't eat much, the food they were churning out looked really nice. Plenty of games to choose from, kept the competitiveness going for our 2 hour session. Couple of downsides, not all of the games were available and the electric seemed to cut off 2 or 3 times while there but can't fault the different scenery for the price.
Very much enjoyed, I had never really been to like a gaming bar/place before. I had visited 3 times during my 5 day trip to Manchester, I loved it, was fun could watch e-sports and have a drink or get a booth to play consoles with friends or rent PCs. Staff very friendly, really helpful. Didnt catch the guys name but he was a manager who helped me all 3 of my visits extremely friendly and gave us helpful tips especially with the student discount which was really good and what made us come back the second time. It was easier than i thought to walk in, but booking definitely recommended if you want longer times or to guarantee. Amazing cocktails, great deals and flavour choices too, amazing themes very creative! Im a bartender so can appreciate a good cocktail. Loved the music, the first visit was just me and my partner we just played and absolutely sang along to most songs which were a good chunk alt, indie and etc

What an amazing place! We booked in advance and didn't have a problem or wait when we arrived. The drinks menu is awesome, and even the glasses they come in are on theme, every cocktail we had tasted outstanding. We had the pizza, which was a little greasy, but still tasted great, and the chips were also great.
A Fun Night for Sims Fans! I attended a Sims-themed bar quiz last night (21/5/25), and it was an absolute blast! The quiz was very entertaining, filled with clever questions that tested both casual and hardcore knowledge of The Sims series. A special shout-out to the quiz master, Alex, who did a fantastic job hosting the night. They were super attentive, engaging, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Tasty grub, friendly atmosphere, lush gaming themed cocktails 🍸 If you're a gamer or just love a good quiz night, I highly recommend seeing what quizzes they have on in the future.
I visited with the £12 groupon deal which is 2 hours of games for 2 people and a cocktail each which is a fantastic offer. The booths give you some privacy. The music was very alternative, indie / pop punk which I love. The decor, vibe and staff were all fantastic. I visited it at 2pm so there were some children with parents but all were well behaved in their own boots / seat in area.
