The owner is very knowledgeable on games of all kinds, and really supports a safe and positive culture in the place. If you wanna go out with friends, you will have way more fun and spend less money here than going to the bar. Great hangout spot to meet friends too. Show less

After experiencing how they handle their private parties myself. I must say they are amazing. While I would like for their website to reflect that they shut down fully to the public for private parties and to regularly check their events calendar especially for new customers who may not realize that this is their policy. The owners are super kind. They are super sweet. They picked up the space where I dropped it today. Granted it was on things like a lighter, plastic silverware and things like that but to me it made a huge difference. They were funny, and they made the experience very much one of a kind for my Bowser/video game loving little man. He has been in such a happy mood since we got home. Show less

Hidden gem of Pittsburgh. Great variety of games with very reasonable prices. They have some cocktail cabinets (which are super cute) with the older nostalgic games I grew up loving and a lot newer games too! They have Cotton Rock n Roll which is part of my favorite series! I also really appreciate the pinball selection that they offer as well. Rhythm games aren't my personal forte but it was nice to see they had some of those too. Machines are well maintained and play great. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The whole place is clean and has a friendly atmosphere. 10/10 Would definitely go again! Show less

The BYOB allowed us to bring adult beverages and have the parents enjoy themselves as well! The staff were kind and helpful. Even lent us a megaphone to announce we were about to sing ‘Happy Birthday’. Haha! My kid had so much fun and I highly recommend this place for private party rentals. You have unlimited game play for 2 hours. Before going to the arcade, check their calendar online so that you know if it’s being rented before coming. Show less

7 years agoI had fun here. The have many old arcade games like Asteroids, Mike Tyson punchout. They also had newer games like Mario Kart and some Transformers game. There is a nice selection of pinball machines. Upstairs is a VR area, and console gaming area.

8 months agoBooked the whole day for private parties with no sign posted. Workers yelled at us for trying to go in. Legitimately don’t know when I am supposed to go in so I can play the games

8 months agoTried to enter three times throughout the day and each time they said they were hosting a private party. NO SIGN NO NOTICE AT ALL. Worker then yelled and was unpleasant to us. Complete waste of time and not deserving of anyone’s business. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!

2 years agoPretty cool. It's in the old Ukrainian center. Plenty of pinball machines which is why we went. Nice collection of classic games. These arcades frequently go out of business and I'd hate to see this one go. So go spend $5 or $10 and have a nice day there!

4 years agoHad a good time here. For 20 dollars we got 2 amazing milkshakes and about an hour of playtime on arcade games and pinball machines. My only disappointment was that there were no board games, that might be a covid thing, no big deal

5 years agoThere's a lot fit into this small space. Between pinball, Mario Kart, light gun shooters, Dance Dance Revolution, and plenty of Sega Blast City cabinets, an hour or two goes quickly.

The café aspect is fun and has lots of options. It can get a little crowded, but everyone's there for the same reason so it's not too big an issue. Most people are good about not hogging any single machine. I wish there were more places like this in the city. Show less

I loooove this place. Absolute best milkshakes in Pittsburgh, and lots of games upstairs for essentially any console you can think of. It's never crowded and the staff are SO friendly! When coming with a big group, try to book the VR Room early because that is something that is in high demand there, especially if you go when it's a little busier. It's a little hard to find if you've never stopped in, but they usually have a sign on the sidewalk and it's right beside Jack's Bar at the beginning of East Carson. If you're in the area it's a must stop, even if you just stop in for milkshakes! Show less

And BYOB?! We don't have that in Ohio, so it was really nice to be able to bring our own adult beverages! My sister (bride-to-be) kept saying how AWESOME this place was and that she was surprised she had never been here before! It was cool getting the entire arcade to ourselves, and worth every penny! I highly recommend you check out Victory Pointe! Thank you for helping us have a wonderful party! Show less

This place was absolutely awesome. Where else can you find a six player X-Men cab? Where else can you find imported Sega candy cabs with Alien Vs. Predator and MVC2? Only here. This was just the best part of visiting Pittsburgh. Fantastic shakes (I enjoyed the Butterbeer shake), awesome pins, and games you just can't find anywhere. A Neo Geo cab with Windjammers? Complete heaven. I love that they have tokens simply because I kept one to add to my collection. I will recommend this place to everyone I meet. Show less

Fun line up of games and $20 bucks in tokens kept us busy for an hour!! Love that they use tokens instead of those game cards most places have. Great selection of Pinball, fighting games, some unique shooters and more.

Great selection of pinball, shooting games, and other cool arcade games! They even have some really fun music rhythm games, JuBeat being one of them. A lot of Stern pinball and a few gems like Addams Family, Cactus Canyon, and Dune. Love this place and the owner is really nice as well!!!
