    This esports bar is a pretty chill place to hang out with your friends, have a few drinks and play some nice video games and enjoy the atmosphere. The staff here pretty chill, if you game on late no problem

    Love this bar - an instant hit! A nice, chill place to meet friends and game. Staff are super cool and easygoing. Great selection of games and devices to play on. The interesting drink menu is well-priced, with fun finger food options too.

    It is very unique. With a cool concept. The staff is very friendly and the games are free to play so long as you buy something. It is quite dimly lit, kind of like a dive bar. The draught beer comes in a decent selection. The food is eatable. its what you would expect for any place of it's kind. They are the only place like it, so in that regard it's kind of a gem.

    Nice atmosphere. Great for gamers who like to drink a lot or occasionally. Burgers are good. Best cocktail is the first blood and good for shots and beer. They have all the classics for gamers.

    Very small bar with a pretty funny list of game inspired drinks. Decent food as well. They have several computers set up ready for various games. TVs all over for watching Twitch or the like, and mood lighting..... oooooh. For the most part it's not good for events hosting more than 30 people, but just going there on a normal day to game or watch streams doesn't seem like a bad idea at all.

    Awesome spot! The staff is really friendly, the games are excellent and vary greatly, and they have a very good selection of beer. On bar, I particularly like Victoria, Chris, and Alex. Really sweet people. Would recommend!

    Very fun and cozy bar, always something to do! E-Sports is making it's way into Toronto and this is one of the only bars of its kind! I've DJ'd for this bar before and the owners are really nice and accommodating. The bartenders are also fun and great as well! Would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to grab a drink and especially if they're gamers too!

    Great place that's so much more than just eSports. They're more of a "geek pub" with a wide variety of different events. The staff are friendly and give it a relaxed, casual vibe that leans more towards the social side of gaming; Like being back in the basement or dorm room playing Mario Kart with your friends (but with better beer). The food is also good; Not just fries and wings.

    Watched LCS here and it was a great experience. Bartender was extremely friendly and attentative. Great atmosphere and a nice place to watch any eSports games.

    I was looking for a nearest Esports Gaming Bar and found this place. The first thing I looked at was the rental rates and I was surprised to see that all gaming units are free to use. Just make sure to order a drink or two (with a reasonable price) for more enjoyable gaming!

πŸ‘ Good food as always! Convenient. Kids friendly. One star less because in the men’s washrooms there is no arrangement for baby diapers change. I managed it somehow but for a single dad with baby it is not convenient. I hope management would put up something to resolve it. Thank you.
