Wow, we've been missing out! We knew about the Playground but didn't really give it much thought…read morebefore today. We were interested in watching the Oregon Duck football game this afternoon and were looking for a place to watch the second half of the game while grabbing something to eat. My wife did a bit of searching and suggested the Playground. We mentioned this to our friend and neighbor and he had nothing but great things to say about the place. We arrived shortly after 5pm on Saturday evening, and had no trouble finding parking. We were immediately impressed. They have a nice outdoor patio and once we walked inside we could see this was not your typical "sports bar". In addition to the bar/counter area, there are tables throughout the main area near the stage and bar. They also have virtual games that allow people to play everything from Zombie Dodgeball to Baseball. We took a seat at the bar and asked if one of the TV's could be changed to the Oregon game. They were happy to accommodate us but we also appreciated that they checked with another couple they knew were interested in the games playing to ensure we each had at least one TV focused on the game of our choice. The young man who provided us menus was friendly and helpful. We also met the manager, Sam who gave us a bit more history on the place and we discovered we are both Penn State Alum, which was cool. I ordered an IPA on draft and saw for the first time a draft system that fills the cups from the bottom with a magnet filler system. Sam and I talked a bit about it and how it works, which we found really interesting. We looked over the food menu and were happy to see they had both Roman style pizza crust options and cauliflower crust options. My wife ordered the pesto pizza on cauliflower crust with no cheese. I ordered the meat lovers pizza on the roman crust with no ranch dressing. My wife visited the women's restroom and reported they were spotless and well equipped. She even made a comment to Sam that she really appreciated the level of attention that is clearly put into the place to keep it clean and well kept. Our pizzas were ready about the same time as the band arrived to begin setting up for a 7:30pm show. We were told the band was a county music group that was really good. We've since started following the Playground on Facebook to keep up with their music offerings. We opened our pizza boxes and both pies looked delicious! My wife oohed and awed over each bite of her pizza and managed to eat the whole thing. I was equally pleased with my pizza but only managed to eat half since it contains a lot more dough than the cauliflower crust, but that leaves me with leftovers, which I love. Overall, this was a great experience and we will absolutely be back! We are also excited that we've found our new place to watch College Football this year. A big shoutout to Sam and the people at the Playground. You've created something really special in our neighborhood.

Came here for lunch. I'm always happy to see a black bean veggie burger on the menu since that is…read moremy favorite kind of veggie burger to eat. My stomach cannot handle the "impossible" stuff out there. Messy burger but who doesn't love a messy good burger? Had sautéed mushrooms and vegetables and cheese in it and I enjoyed it. The fries were a little overdone for me though. Would definitely come back and try different things on the menu. Very clean and good service, our waitress was on top of it with refilling our Waters and we really appreciated that.

I went with the Nashville hot chicken sandwich. Solid overall--good flavor and well cooked. I would've liked a little more heat, but it's clearly dialed in to be approachable for most people. Also had the pub chips, and those were excellent. Everyone else at the table was happy with their meals too, no weak spots. The environment hits a nice balance--family-friendly but still has that sports bar energy. Add in efficient service, and it's an easy spot to come back

Well Village Square tap house, it is a bar but it's a dang good place to hang out with friends. I…read morethink every weekend they have a live band either on Friday or Saturday night but we went to their Halloween party last week. LevelXperience was playing, which is an all-girls band and they were awesome! But they have two bars for service because they had recently bought the area beside them and now it's full of arcade games which are pretty fun as an adult after you've been drinking a bit. On one side they do have adult slushies. They have added more bathrooms and more pool tables, if you enter on the arcade side and they have a band you will need to pay an entrance fee. There's a local Dart group that competes each week and I know they have Super Bowl parties which includes food and prizes. The funny thing is, I asked the bartender on the arcade if they have Red Stripe, she said Yes, of course, it's been awhile since I've heard it called that!." Now she looked to be 24-28ish and bless her heart- she handed me a PBR. I looked at the bottle and was going to say something but hey, of course we all know PBR does have a red stripe in the label. But nonetheless, good prices and fun times. Plenty of people to sing along and dance with or play a round of pool. The Green Tea shots here are the best I've had anywhere. Plenty of parking and you are basically 10 feet away from the late night Taco Bell menu to help absorb the alcohol. If you're looking for a a quiet spot for a few minutes away from the music, they have an outdoor area to the right of the building, it is accessible without going inside first. You will have to show ID or your wristband at every entrance and the place is large enough to host a birthday party, a Friendsgiving get together or GNO, there's a hotel close by in case you go for their New Years Eve PARTY. A few of my friends and I actually had a hilarius Christmas photo shoot at VS Taphouse about 10 years ago. So good try a new cocktail for fall and get your pinball game on-Saturday and Sunday they open at 12 noon if you just want to take the kids to play a few old school arcade games.

I think if we order this again we will ask for a little bit less spicy. Good flavor and portion size compare to other places. $16 Butter Chicken Pizza - I seen other places have this item on the menu and been wanting to try butter chicken pizza. I got the small. Pretty good. It was really soft it was little hard to pick up. $15. Mango Lassi - probably one of the best mango lassi I had. Very smooth and creamy and right temperature. Really help with the spiciness from the Chicken Vindaloo. I not want to frequent bars much so I don't really know how the service works in one. I think I might order takeout next time.

There is nothing here that will knock your socks off, but most items are better than average - a bit like Chili's with a smaller menu, and a smaller footprint. I went in recently to grab a beer and a snack. I settled on the nachos, an item I'd had at other locations and that I enjoyed. The nachos contain tortilla chips, house made queso cheese, chopped scallions, sliced jalapeños, diced tomato, and chopped black olives, with sides of sour cream and salsa. You can add chicken or taco meat for an additional charge. I added the taco meat (seasoned ground beef) on the side. In general, these were good nachos, all the items were fresh tasting, including the tortilla chips, which as often as not, can be stale. The salsa was rather mild, so some hot sauce was added. This spot is close to me, so I'll drop in from time to time.

I ordered at the bar and the food was ready in 12 minutes. I got the Bacon Cheeseburger on Steroids. OMG. This burger was so good. I ordered mine Medium so it would reheat well the next day. They did prepare it wrong but it was soooo good. It comes with a ton of jalapeno & smoked applewood bacon, monterey jack cheese, homemade bacon mayo, lettuce, tomato, red onion slices and 2 strips of sandwich pickles. It comes with a classic side and I opted for the fries. The fries were a little over cooked and greasy but still nice and soft like I prefer. Next time I may upgrade for a salad instead of the fries. I can't do a lot of greasy food these day. But overall I will definitely get this burger again.
