  Great selection and very reasonable prices.  The beer list can be found on their Facebook page but I am told that it is ~95% accurate since new selections are rotating in and out regularly.  Cool, old-school arcade games... I like the Simpson's game.  :-D  They have live music sometimes, trivia nights, wing nights, and other fun things going on.
  
  Besides the cool, laid-back vibe, the staff is extremely nice and the patrons are friendly.  I'm really excited to have found this little gem.

  This place has so much potential! It should really be 5 stars, but it's still got a few things to sort out. Since it's relatively new, I'm hoping they will continue to get better as they attract more business.
  First of all, they are a "barcade," so they are a bar with old school arcade games. A winning combination, of course, but at least half (maybe more) of the machines are out of service all the time. In addition to the ones with signs on them, a lot of the machines will eat your quarters, have major functionality problems, or (on better days) occasionally work for free.
  They are experimenting with various kinds of food, some of which is better than others. A lot of it is really greasy (like, too greasy) and the portions could stand to be a bit bigger, but they are definitely creative. I guess a lot of people like their BBQ wings (not really my thing), but they have excellent fancy grilled cheese sandwiches with fun names and unusual flavor combinations.
  One thing that cannot be denied is that they have a fantastic beer selection! They have 20 beer taps at any given time and plenty more in bottles. They also carry a good selection of non-alcoholic beverages, and many of their products are local, as well! Prices are pretty good for the quality, and there is almost always a cheap "featured beer" deal of the day.
  They have lots of board games and a trivia night, as well as Magic and WWE nights. It's sort of like the anti-bar in a way. Even though it's a little divey, I definitely recommend checking out this unique place!
