Fun little bar and arcade spot. We got the burgers on one of their burger deal days. It was a good size. Decent burger. The games were fun to just play around with. read more

Great place, great service, great arcade! But for the love of god could they please install foot rails at the bar. Like, please. read more

First time here and the bar tender was very nice and friendly. She informed us there was a pinball tournament going on and how to order and pick up our food. I would have never thought of taking my kids here since it's a pub but since they had arcade and no kids are allowed after 7 or 8 I figured it's a place I can take my kids. We came around 2 and there were a few families there and my kids had fun playing in the arcade. We order an appetizer sampler and also some kids meal. They enjoyed their food and we will be backs read more

Pros: Easily one of the best curated modern pinball (Stern Pinball, Jersey Jack) and arcade collections (Killer Queen, DDR, Mario Kart) around in Houston, if not the country. Even has a refreshed version of USA v Russia hockey game! Credentials: Former pinball leaguer in Manhattan, frequented arcades in Chicago, California, Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo. Cons: No Street Fighter (.. vs Capcom would be awesome!) but otherwise this place is pretty rad Full bar, friendly staff and good vibes makes it worth a visit for any video game enthusiast. A collection this deep and imaginative can't be cheap to maintain read more

I went there couple of times service was good with drinks and ambiance is okay like the sports bar kind . Lots of arcade games to play there and even kids are allowed until certain time so good place to hang out read more

Love the service food is awesome fresh and delicious! Drinks are the best prices in town and arcade has an amazing range to have a fun time with friends or family! All the bartenders here aare amazing! Favorite sspot in this side of town! read more

Eureka! EinStein's you are a blessing to all the nerds out there. The vibes here are always great, and my bros and I always come here just to chat, watch a game, study, or play video games. YES, you heard me right, STUDY. On many ocassions, we have literally brought our laptops and notes, and studied here. Einstein's has wi-fi, so when the DJ is bumping the music too loud, its a great spot to study in honor of the great Albert E. They have various options of beer on tap, good prices, good drinks, and food! Every day they have various different specials that are worth checking out. I've had their tacos and burgers, and they have been stellar! The bartenders are very nice, and provide good service. The various pinball machines and games they have in the back are definitely worth the fun! Make sure to bring cash that you can change into quarters! read more

Fresh food seems to be cooked to order, the bar tenders remember you and are always awesome, great service. The people are nice and laid back, music is always good. Your kids can play in the arcade while you watch a game and socialize at the bar or there's an outside space to use. The area is nice and safe as well. There are Specials nearly every day, and the food is always good. I have zero complaints. 10/10 read more

I went during daytime with some friends, and Brittany was our bartender, 20/10. I will specifically return just for her. She was fast, nice, and made me and a friend a drink just based off of the alcohol we liked. I used to bartend and hated being asked to "make something good" but she had no problem with it. Also, we were obsessed with the arcade portion. GO HERE, AND MAKE SURE IT IS WHEN BRITTANY IS WORKING!! read more

Absolutely love this place. The drinks are a great price, the bartenders are nice and quick with service, and the customers and very friendly. And I find that they and security handle conflicts that break out very efficiently making me feel safe in the environment. They've got fun games, pretty good food for being bar food & cheap, slot machines, and a nice patio. The weeks days are usually pretty chill, not too busy or loud. But The Weeknd's, (friday and Saturday) can get a little hectic, lots of drunk people, and pretty loud music due to having a dj. So it's definitely a place for whatever your vibe is. Absolutely love the bartenders Erick and Jamie. This is easily my favorite pub. The location in Katy and pretty cool too but definitely prefer this one ;) read more

So this mama of 4 needed a chill night out that involved some alcohol in my system! So Covid procedures would be wearing a mask required upon entering establishment. That's about it. The tables were spaced out enough per party. Patrons inside were abiding by the social distancing, so thank you! The only thing I think I would like to see is more of is, sanitizer stations around the arcade area. With that being said there is an arcade on one side of the place! Which i thought was pretty cool! And you can bring kids! Although I am unsure of the hours they are allowed in there. Bar side. Hannah was our bartender, very nice! She made us jolly rancher shots!! (I mean i felt like i was 21 again) old fashioned is my usual and it wasn't bad! She was quick and welcoming! Definitely check this place out! It was nice, chill, and fun! Make sure to bring cash for the arcade! read more

Nick is one of the best servers I ever met he's great and cares about what he does. Good person and let's you feel welcome, very attentive and always Checking in. He knows the menus and makes suggestions on drinks depending on what you're in the mood for. We can use more customer service like this place read more

Great neighborhood bar! This arcade pub is way nicer than your average neighborhood bar.... it's so modern/sleek and clean! There's SO many flat screens any seat in the house is great for the game. Most of the games are .50 but some are more. I liked how there's a bit of separation between the mar bar area and the games. The main bar was pretty crunk with a DJ so it made it a little difficult to have a conversation, but the game room had tables and the music was not as loud. There were people having a great time dancing by the DJ. The food menu is very limited for now but there was y'all that a full food menu was coming out soon. We had the avocado bites, YUM!!! Cooked perfectly and the jalapeño ranch sauce was great. The beers we had were all $3.75. The staff was the best part. They were all so sweet and in good moods. Everyone from the door guy, bartenders, servers and even the bar back/ Bussers. I can't tell you how much a friendly staff makes a night out so much better. We will definitely return! read more

Came here on a Tuesday with my husband and it was very relaxing. They have a nice sense of music at this place and a good variety of games, which is actually the main reason my husband wanted to come here lol. We didn't eat or order any drinks but there's a sign once you come in, that service is at the bartender which is nice and straight forward. They also have a balcony in the back for smoking or just hangingout. Definitely a place to be if you want to chill :) read more

Nice place. Good drinks and great prices. Bartenders were great. Didn't take long to order. The food was awesome.. I definitely plan on returning! Plenty of parking and seating! read more

Good pinball but 2 or 3 machines weren't working. Cheap drinks. I didn't eat so I can't say how the food is.

This is a great establishment, they have a wide selection of beers and drinks. The food is actually pretty tasty for bar food. Not to mention the DJ's they have on weekends. Another positive is that they offer a free birthday shot on your birthday. Overall if you're looking to have a mature night out with no worries on bad situations I highly recommend this place. read more

If @djmonstaa is a regular, you'll see me more. Service is fantastic here. Try the Einsteins burger with the Jalepeno bun.

Totally cool place! Came here with my girlfriends and we had an awesome night! They had drink specials with the jolly rogers and that's all we had the whole night! The arcade part needs quarters. Some games were a bit pricey but we stuck mostly with the basketball hoops. There was a live dj and his songs were mixed oldies and todays pop. We will definitely come back! read more

This is definitely one of the best bars in the area! By far in comparison to the other bars. The ambiance is great with enough space and good prices on the drinks and food. Also the Arcade the best thing there if you like games! Quarters is all it takes hehe read more

Just your little neighborhood bar! Located right near the suburb of Aliana. It's a big space - lots of room to social distance. They have decent bar food and always have specials! I have mixed feelings about this place - the first time I went the bartender was super nice and even generous with our drinks. The most recent time, bartender caught a little attitude but I didn't let it get to me. Drinks were OK prices, but felt like they were skimpy on the alcohol this time. Also they over charged me almost 25 dollars, fortunately my bf caught it. They have arcade games and family friendly until I think 8? It's a chill place if you just wanna hang out and not go too far from home. They do ID after a certain time - and mind you, the bouncer there that night was super rude. Super unprofessional and didn't know how to communicate effectively to the paying customers of the establishment. We get it - you have a job to do but there is still a nice way to do it. Just from that encounter, it makes me not want to return. read more

Out of respect for the bar, I gave this review 3 stars, but was highly disappointed with my time here when I celebrated my BIRTHDAY on May 15th. I've came here many times, my dad actually had his birthday here as well last year, and those times were super fun! Bartenders were nice, music was great, and everything was good, so THAT is why I'm giving this place the 3 stars. The reason I wanna give them 1 star is because my experience on May 15th. We were celebrating my birthday and we're having an good time (bartenders were good, gave us our drinks on time, just a little mishap with paying), but i head outside to grab something from my car and my sister follows me. When we try to head back inside, the bouncer goes "IDs?". My sister, my group and I were in the building for like 3 hours AND we literally just walked outside IN FRONT of the bouncer so we know he saw us. Then we tell him that she left it inside with her bag, we just stepped outside to grab something from the car to which he rudely replies, "Why is it inside?". Okayyyy. Did we not just tell you why it was inside? So I just put up my ID and say I mean if you don't believe us, even tho we JUST walked out, then I can go grab it. Then he just says "go get it". Like he wanted me to leave my sister outside alone? Are you crazy. I tell my friend to go get it and I say I'll stay right out here. So we just awkwardly all stand out there, then he heads inside a minute later, just scrolling on his phone like nothing. We finally get the card show him, and close out our tab and head out because we were super disappointed in the service. Please train that bouncer better, it might cost you customers who spend good money on your establishment. read more

They CLEARLY don't want people of color at this establishment, never have I ever walked into a place and immediately felt uncomfortable! Tara gave us the nastiest look when we came in, she didn't want to really take our order and wasn't pleasant at all! I didn't even want to drink the drinks we ordered!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!! 2022 and racism is rampant read more

Cute neighborhood pinball / bar! Would totally bring a friend here! This place isn't too far from my house too which is awesome! Games 4/5: Got here at like 8:30 and there were some groups here but no one really played games until like 9:30-10! The games here are comparable to joystix - not as much but they had similar pinball machines , they had a lot of different pinball options to chose from. They had skeeball, basketball , DDR (kinda), Mariokart, fuseball, air hockey! A good selection for a neighborhood bar! Note - most games are .50 cents , and all the bigger games are $1! They do have a coin exchange machine and there's an ATM too. Food & drinks 3.5/5: It's normal bar food! I got a brownie and it was soo sweet- but I'm sure most people would like it. We also go taco fries- which I wanted more of the jalapeño sauce, the fries themselves felt freshly made! Drinks: I think we got some sort of watermelon Shots and they were really good! My friend got the angry orchard with Guinness drink and said she really liked it too! The drink menu didn't seem to have much of a variety, I saw a lot of normal looking drinks you can buy at a grocery store - but this is a neighborhood bar so I didn't expect any craft beers! Service 5/5: loved our waitress, super quick, checked in with us the right amount of times. She was awesome! Ambiance 3.5/5: it felt more like a sports bar in the main area - which isn't my vibe. But I appreciate all the TVS along the walls. Also, TBH there's not a lot of diversity in the patrons, but that can't be helped and everyone seemed pretty chill! Overall 4/5: it's a cute date night to play games , or a chill place to grab a quick drink read more

Fair priced beer (we drink draft michelob) an array of games for entertainment, a patio, and good food! First time here and additionally the service is friendly and attentive! Definitely want to come back next time we are in town read more

Fun little spot to take the kids. After 9pm it's 21 and up. I haven't experienced that yet, but I'm sure one day I will.

We went as a last minute Father's Day treat and it didn't disappoint! The drinks was good, the wings were good, super cool vibe, but the best part was the games wasn't expensive! It's been way too long since I been to a place that wasn't trying to get rich off they little arcade room lol.. but super cool spot and I'll definitely be back! read more

First time here. Honestly probably my last. Smelled like an unclean bar. The staff was pleasant. But this just isn't it. I wouldn't order food here just by the looks of it. read more

I like this bar it's cool the vibe is live overall a great place but this is the third time that I've gone there and I get charged twice for my tab I went there Friday night and I paid my tab left a tip and wake up the following Week and I'm charged the tab again. I always get my money back but not before having to call them to get it refunded. Please fix this problem or take cash only cause not everyone can afford to have money taken out of their account twice in a week. read more

I'll make this velvety smooth & easy for you .. yes. Bartenders, spirit options, food, games, ambiance ... yup. I suggest bringing sand to this beach though, chill lowkey homie vibe. read more

This place is fairly new and so far the waitress is nice . Pinball machine is 50 cent . Place is clean and it has plenty of tvs for games , and fights. The only thing I would say is that the egg rolls are kind of pricey for the amount you get . Other than that the food was pretty good and came out quick . I would recommend! read more

I've ordered burgers to go a few times here and there's always an issue with the patties being overcooked or undercooked. Tonight I decided to post a picture in hopes that management can see for themselves how raw this burger was served...even though we asked for well done. Please do better. read more

Cool place, lousy date. If I were in the area again, I'd definitely consider going back (just with better company).

We went for the Sunday cheap burger deal and drinks with some friends. The burger was very good (especially for cheap) and beer was good and cold. They were very busy and understaffed, but our waitress rocked it read more
