My favourite spot in the city! What more do you need? A huge number of pinball machines, old school arcade cabinets, a lounge area with an NES and an N64, great food at a great price, decent selection of beer, and friendly staff! Its like a kid adult's dream. Also, all the games are setup for free play! Such a chill location =] UPDATE - New location in Parkdale is such an amazing spot for them! They made it feel just like their Dundas location and they have even more space! It's awesome 💯

It is a fantastic place to have some fun and a few drinks. 10 dollar cash entrance and all you can play games is such a good deal. The craft beer list is great too. Most foods here are deep fried bar snacks.

It was 5 CAD to get in (There is an ATM with a 6 CAD charge if you don't have cash on you). There was an awesome selection of arcade games (About 10-15, and some contained hundreds of games to choose from), about 10 pinball machines, a retro console with a couch to play on, Nintendo 64 (Smash Bros!) with a couch to play on, and Skee-Ball. The beer selection seemed decent, but not too extensive which is what I'd expect. We went on a Wednesday and didn't have to wait for games very long except for Smash Bros. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area!

Love this place! It can get busy sometimes as it's not a huge space, also with covid less tables are available. That being said for 5$ you can play a good selection of arcade games and some pretty cool pinball machines. The tables are arcade machines as well so you can have fun at your seat. If you're looking to play old console games, they have a few booths with tvs too. Check it out 👍🏻

Great place! 10$ entrance fee for an 'all you can play' night :) This place is very clean and isn't quite full around 9-10pm Friday night. Arcades, SNES, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, pong table, basket arcade and more!

Fun bar! Most games are functional and fun, our favourites are Crystal Castles (it's like a quirky version of Pac Man) and Street Fighter. Foods and drinks are decent, nothing special. Fun for kids and adults. $5 cash only entry fee no time limit. Go on a less busy day so you get the chance to play all games.

It doesn’t get better than this! Unlimited pinball for $10 is an absolute dream, good food, great drinks! Will definitely be back! Went on a Thursday evening and it wasn’t too busy!

Super cool place for a night out! Good burgers - especially the pulled pork. It can be packed but usually people are pretty good at following the rule of winners play on, losers move on. They have a bunch of arcade games, pinball machines, and old school video game consoles. Great atmosphere and their new location is a bit bigger, which is great. Absolutely worth a visit.

Fantastic place for those that enjoy a good time I’m really glad this place was able to open again, I was one of the ones that donated after the incident as I do believe in their business Now they have a bigger space, more of the game consoles and the same great arcade games Great beer selection changing from time to time Food is simple for a bar as it is more for snacks but they are definitely tasty Friendly staff to talk to about the games, beers and just to chat

Great vibe and easy entrance fee, free on my Birthday to get in! Had a great time playing 80’s & 90’s pinball as well as Ms Pac-Man, Galaga and plenty of other games that made the time go by! Really had a great time. Would definitely recommend coming back with loads of friends!

We enjoyed Tilt Arcade a lot. Pay $10 and play as much as you want. So many retro games. They also had basketball and skeet ball. I liked the pin ball options. It can get a little loud but that’s not the fault of the place. That many games and people you have to expect noise. It’s a great place to take kids.

Pretty cool place to play old school arcade games, grab a bite and a drink late into the night. It does tend to get rather crowded but for an entry fee of $5 it's pretty worth it to try out. The popular games might take a bit of a long wait and the place itself isn't too big, but it is a cool unique experience within the city to try out.

Glad to be back at Tilt. First time since the re-open. Great location with a lot of space. We went on Saturday and it wasn’t overcrowded, a lot of games available with little wait time. Good mix of new and retro games A lot of fun.

Great spot for a fun night, 10$ gets you in the door for unlimited gaming. Drinks are a little pricey but overall had a great time. Booths with retro systems including Nintendo, N64, pinball all along the wall, old school retro like donkey Kong and pac-man, there is something for everyone!

So many fun games! Unlimited plays with the 5$ cover fee. Food was cheap and really good! Must try the deep fried Mars bars

I have recently visited the new location at 1255 Queen Street West and I'm happy to report that my review is exactly the same as it was 5 years ago! I still had a blast here. It really brought back memories of hanging around the old arcades of the 80's. Great selection of pinball and classic arcade games. The $10 dollar cover gets you unlimited play! Food was good and economically priced. They also have plenty of craft beers to pick from again at great prices. I went on a Saturday and they played great retro music which made the atmosphere even better. The staff are super friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend this place for an all around fun time!

Amazing place. One of the best prices for the funnest times during our whole week long trip in Toronto.

Fun and nostalgic place. Love that the games are free unlimited play with only a $5 cover fee. It gets busy pretty quickly so I would recommend going early. Lots of fun, old school arcade games and pinball machines.

Very nice place to hang out with friends. If you go on weekdays, it's $10 for 2 people, during weekends it's $10 per person. You can play as much as you can. Just two machines weren't working, but it was an excellent experience. Recommended!

Talk about FUNNNNN! 🤩 Every bit of the $10 entrance fee was more than worth it. 🙌🏼 Unlimited games! And all the fun games too!! We had our office holiday social here and had the greatest time. Tipsy and driving Mario Karts, trying our hand at pinball, those arcade mini bowling and the basketball, the Pac-Man, Street Fighter, Galactics, and it goes on and on and on! I swear, if we didn’t have an actual holiday dinner booked - we might’ve just lost ourselves here the whole night. Everyone had a blast! 🤩 The nostalgia, the decor, the everything. Even the poster and comic book walls!!! Definitely bringing my husband here (and I’m sure it will be a “whole night” kinda thing).

Had an amazing time at Tilt Arcade Bar in Toronto! Visited on a Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised with a 2-for-1 entry fee, making it a great deal at $10 for both me and my wife. The variety of games and consoles, including unlimited play, added to the enjoyment. From pinball to shoot ’em ups and racing games, the N64 brought back nostalgic memories. The atmosphere was vibrant, and the energy was fantastic. We tried the dark and stormy drink, which was excellent. Overall, a blast of an experience – highly recommend for anyone seeking good vibes and a fun gaming atmosphere!

For 10 dollars you can play any game. They have all types of games there and you would definitely find something for everyone. The food and drinks are good and can be enjoyed in a vibrant and loud atmosphere. They even have ski ball and basketball. Good for many occasions whether it be a date, family function, place to grab a late night drink with a few friends - this place won't disappoint.

Fun place. 4 star only because the food could be a little better. Don't get me wrong, it's the usual type of bar food but could have a bit more selection. Portions of the food was otherwise ok. The place itself was fun. Very nostalgic. Would come again. Though $5 cover can be a lot with a family with young kids. They should have an early bird option for families with young kids with no cover for the kids.

I love this place! So many games to play! All for only $5! The bar has a nice selection of cheap drinks, they even have fair food for snacks! The only thing I wished this place had was awesome music. How cool would that be if they had themed music playing like hip-hop, while you're focused on kicking your boyfriend's ass in a game of street fighter or some epic electro music while trying to beat your friends in Mario cart? This place has all your heart's desires in retro gaming. You can even show off your hoop skills to co-workers after a shift. Always a blast here and I always spend 2+ hours here in a blink of an eye. It's an awesome place for a fun date!

My first time coming here I didn't try food so I can't really review that, but I came here last night and for a Tuesday night it was surprisingly busy and now too crowded but enough to create an amazing vibe and overall environment to play and drink in! I'd say they have to most games available in all of Toronto, literally. Ultra cheap play all day is the way it should be and is how it's done! I highly recommend coming here at least once! Apparently they had a re opening, and so I can confirm this new spot hits x100 harder! Will return again and will try some drinks and food too! Can't get enough!

Huge fan of Tilt! I just learned of the reopening - and haven't been to the new spot yet - so this comment is based on the old location. This place, and the people that run it, are absolutely stellar. It's a great place to go with your friends (to play some wicked games while getting tipsy) or for parents with kids that just love gaming. Tilt takes spectacular care of all of the proper cabinets and pinball machines. They even have old school systems for you to play some NES/SNES/Genesis (and wayyyyyyy more) if the mood should strike you. Rumour has it there's a Philips CD-i in the back. Yet to be confirmed. Good food. Good drinks. Good games. Good people. Couldn't ask for more. Can't wait to check out the new setup. 10/10

Love the new space, roomy and comfortable with a ton of new consoles. Three stars because they still only have washrooms for Mario and Peach. I know this place is retro but come onnn

Been coming here for years. Always a fun experience. Enjoy coming with large groups or just a few friends. Lots of games and good drinks and light pub food. This place was super fun! We went on Toonie Tuesday with 5 people. It was fairly busy and lively but not so crazy that you couldn't play any of the awesome games there. They have tons of old arcade games, pinball games, driving games, console games for Mario carts, and Skee ball. The drinks and food were priced really well for Toronto and the staff was friendly and approachable. Really recommend trying this place out!

This is a really great place to go and enjoy some retro gaming and pinball! They have 15 pinball machines, N64 console, baby pacman, space invaders, ski ball, original Donkey Kong and more! You just pay $5 at the door and you can play as many games as you want for free! No tokens necessary! I suggest not going on a busy friday night as most of the games are taken and you have a bit of a wait, and later on there may be a lineup at the door, but they have reasonably priced drinks for a bar and great entertainment! I will definitely be back! :)

An incredible space with unique drinks, foods, and amazing atmosphere! The service was good too but nothing extraordinary. Some of the controllers for the console games weren't working properly but overall a great experience.

Great place. Busy. Large game variety. Recently they upped their ice cream sandwich game, that's a must try. Good different beer selection, but still some regulars that you can get if not adventurous

Great arcade - pins played pretty well. Only one down. New Sterns were all Insider Connected enabled. All my favorite 80s arcade games. So fun!

Loving the new location, a lot more spacious than the Dundas one! The staff are extremely nice and helpful. Still the good vibes and fun, would love to see some consoles at the tables in the near future.

Tilt is absolutely one of the best things about downtown Toronto to me. This is the 3rd location they've been in. The first one on Bloor got sold to make way for a boutique hotel, the end on Dundas had a fire which partially destroyed the place and now they see in (hopefully) a long term location on Queen West next to the Rhino Bar. This was my first visit since they reopened and the place is as great as ever. Tons of room. Way more games. Way more TV booths setup for console games. Good beers on tap. Great food. Still good value for the whole thing. Think I spent $50 which covered my entrance, coat check, 2 beers and chicken sandwich and fries (which was tasty). In Toronto, in 2023, that is a very affordable night out. The selection of games is still solid, lots of pinball, arcade games, racing games, DDR, foosball, skeeball. It was nice to see some upgrades like having the modern Mario Kart racing setup. We went on a Sunday night and it was great because it was out of peak hours so we didn't have to wait for any of the games really. Lovely spot. Nice staff. Fantastic resilient owners. Tilt is a 10/10.

Tilt arcade bar is a great place for going out and somehow go back in time at the same time. Classic retro games remind me of my childhood crowd is happy and beautiful drinks are free flowing food could be a little bit better but that's not the focus of the place.

Retro: check. Games: triple check. Atmosphere: quintuple check. Music: groovy check. Bar Service: absolute trash. Pre-drink and go have fun. Save your tips.

An awesome place to hang out! This place is full of retro games. Gets me right in the nostalgia. It's loud for those sensitive to that but dark. $10 cover and every game is free to play. When I was there is seemed that most games had a fast turnover so you weren't waiting long for your turn. Lost of arcade games: pinball, racing games, rail shooters, pac man, table hockey as well as several Nintendo consoles: NES, SNES, N64, Game Cube. There are tables to sit and eat, but there is no table service. You must go to the bar to order. Kids friendly, but there can only be 2 kids for 1 adult. With the general loud noise and good kid to chaperone ratio, those that don't like kids will not feel out of place.

Fun time for a great price! Hard to find a fun activity for cheap around dt toronto! Loved it and the beer selection!

The arcade games are really old ones in the good condition! You can find all the old versions of the consoles!

Great place! There was a 5$ cover fee to enter, however, don't worry! That simply helps them keep all the games free to play! Although I don't think you can win anything from the games, you and some friends will definitely not be disappointed here! Drinks are on the slightly more expensive side, but then again, which bar isn't? They also have a great selection of beers and IPAs, I personally recommend The Octopus Wants To Fight IPA!

I really enjoyed this place. It really takes you back to those 80s and 90s arcade shops back in the day In 10 dollars you can play unlimited time. Those pinball machines and the foosball table was my go to game there and also the mortal kombat games are nostalgic!

$5 cover and all the games were free! Lots of pinball machines and other arcade games towards the back. Ordered food - your basic deep-fry options; was fine. Not really a place to visit for food, more drinks and fun!

Amazing! I had a blast with my boyfriend in there. You pay 10$ to get in and have A BUNCH of options to play with. The staff is really nice and the drinks are great. The atmosphere is amazing, a lot of themed posters and an amazing variety of games. They also have a lot of vegan options!

Our family had a blast at this place to celebrate a birthday. For $10 entrance fee per person we stayed for 3 houra and we could of stay longer. There were so many games though also so many people. I totally would go back. In terms of food it is just finger food. They are fun to have in the place. It made the experience.

Amazing small retro arcade bar with a lot of arcades games and a couple on retro consoles to play with. One of the best things about this bar is that it's only $5 to get in and you can play all you want. Food it's good and cheap and drinks are great as well. Will definitely will be there again

Super rude staff, leads to bad atmosphere. NOT kid friendly. Avoid. Nice guy behind bar with goatee but young guy with brown beard is beyond rude, unpleasant to kids and ruins the whole experience. Two completely unnecessary interactions resulting in us 3 excellent customers now choosing to avoid this place permanently.

Came here for my first time with a few friends a few weeks ago. Place got super busy very quickly so we had to wait for a few games, but still had a ton of fun. Food was okay but service was excellent. Good selection of drinks too. Will definitely be back.

Very fun experience, cheap entry only $5 and then you can play as many games as you’d like. The beer selection was very cool and the food was great. Greats vibes all around.

Came here for the first time back in 2018 and never returned. This arcade was dingy, dirty and the food was stale and gross. The games were sticky to the touch and some just didn't even work. Staff weren't very friendly, either. If this place ever reopens (hopefully not) DON'T bring your kids here. At all. The vibe is not right for children to be in.

30-40 year old nerds rejoice! This bar is jam packed with all your favourite videos games from 1980-2000! 90% of the crowd were men and the line ups for some of the games too long to bother with reconnecting with your youth. The drinks were cheap! And that was the best part! We left after about an hour, feeling like our nostalgia meter was full and happy it’s 2019!

This is everything I wanted. A mind-boggling and vast selection of retro video games matched with a surprisingly competent bar that can service people of all tastes. My partner and I got lost in Godzilla pinball, NES classics like Punch Out and Kirby's Adventure, and a nail-biting game of Mario Party 2. All the while, I could sip a Corona, a Whisky Highball, a Margarita, or whatever I wanted. The atmosphere also speaks for itself. Truly a gem.
