For a place that touts their video games, they need to maintain them better. Ms Pac Mans screen is so bad you cant see your character and Donkey Kongs controller wouldnt let you climb the ladder, one pinball machine was also messed up while the second one had weak flippers. Luckily, Cards Against Humanity requires no moving parts, so we were still able to have a great time.

Good customer service. Clean place. Decent drinks. Food was not as good as before. But I understand. Most games were working just fine

Busy new spot in the city. Cocktails menu was decent with multiple choices and a couple upsize drinks for a few people to share. Only popcorn at this time as a snack. Food in the future. Small collection of traditional arcade games from the past. Only complaint is the location of the bathrooms mixed in with the crowd of gamers can get interesting navigating and asking whose in line.

Another great experience. Especially during this time of caution. Jackie was the best at taking care of us and will be missed when she moves onto her next adventure. I will surely come again as it is a great place to visit

Love the vibe here, Traditional wings with the BBQ sauce are the best and so are the Totchoes

An arcade for adults. Drinks are reasonably priced and pretty good. Younger people make up the majority of the crowd during weekends.

Cool atmosphere. Good drinks. Extensive draft list. Food tasty...but comes from off-site. They deliver to your table in to go boxes. Service only okay. Was expecting more from this new downtown Flint venture.

This is a cool little bar next to the Capital Theater. Drinks are not way expensive but they are not cheap either. The atmosphere is nice bar staff was decent. The old pinball machines and other older style arcade games are a lot of fun. Definitely a place to check out!

Love the old school video and pinball games. Atmosphere is a bit too ummmmmm suburban for my taste. Staff are polite and I want to steal the cool blue valour couch they have!

So much fun. The drinks are good and there are arcade games most of them take 25¢ but there are also other games upstairs. I think we spent like 10$ on games (does not include our drinks) and had a great time for 5ish hours. Atmosphere is really cool and they play good music. 10/10 had a wonderful time

This is a fun place. You get to play old school games and have drinks. They have a large bar and lots of tables. They also have free games you can play upstairs like connect 4 and Nintendo. Very cute inside. We did have a malfunction with a game but they handled it right away and overall the machines seem very well maintained

The Eberson is a refreshing spot if youre looking for something unique. If arcade games, cards, or shuffleboard dont suit you they also have a fully stocked bar with craft beer, liquor wine and cocktails. Also a very family friendly environment!

The newest and best bar in Downtown Flint! What more could you ask for in a bar - retro arcade games, superb craft cocktails, free popcorn, shuffle board, mid-century modern decor, and to top it all off: amazing service! Looking forward to making this my new favorite bar downtown. Come check it out, you won’t be disappointed!

Great ambience, people, staff, and drinks; but the video game selection is lacking. Most are broken in very fixable ways. Not sure if they have a technician on hand but they need one. These things are easy to fix and replace parts.* Will edit when I try them out again *

Nice place to hang out with friends. Drinks and games if all kinds to play. Board games. Giant connect four. Shuffle board. Pinball and arcade games. All contribute to a nice place to unwind and catch up with friends. Just another nice place to go downtown.

Tad pricy but very cool atmosphere. I normally hate arcade bars because the concept divides the group and stops people from talking and hanging out. But, the nice thing about this place is there is a separate section for games. Meaning majority of the bar is for drinking and conversing with friends. Yet if you want to sit in the corner and play Pacman and drink a beer. Have at it... I would just suggest you can do that for less money at home.

Ive came here plenty of times alone, with friends, and with my 3 year old ive brought a few times without any issues. Today i came with my son and my aunt and 8 year old cousin while they were in town visiting from marquette. First a worker came up to let us know kids arent allowed after 9 (like any bar) and we agreed to leave before then. About 15 minutes later after we bought a bunch of tokens and played a few games we were told we had to leave while we still had plenty of tokens left. They were polite when telling us to leave but the fact that they made us leave while we were being respectful and spending money, and making us leave with tokens makes me really not want to come back again.·Its ridiculous that the bar downtown with the most games is the least family friendly.

Delightful and attentive service. 1st trip here super classy felt underdressed but not in an awkward way. I like the fact that its my version if classic.games not 1950s classic. Try the detroit brew cerveza...something i dont rememeber but it was amazing and i love it.
