There is too much to say for how awesome this place is. It is the best entertainment spot downtown, the best bar, they have the most awesome staff behind the bar, and the owners are friendly, responsive, and a great asset to downtown and Macon overall.There just arent enough stars I can give.

Fun old arcade games, geek themed drinks, would recommend the baby groot drink. They have lots of board/card games too, but need more regular playing cards

Great selection of games to play on. I didnt do any drinking or sampling of their food. The bartender was helpful in purchasing of tokens for the games and the prices seemed to be reasonable as well. I will definitely return again if Im in the area.

Super cute, fun, quick pop in, arcade and bar. I feel all walks of life can enter this facility and enjoy themselves. They have something special going on each day of the week like trivia, special made drinks, game tournaments, silent disco, costume contests. It is family friendly for all ages until 9pm, which turns into adult swim time.Any time I am downtown I always make time for Reboot.

Such a fun place to hang with friends. They allow kids during the day which my kids love since they can play the arcade and pin ball games for just a token each. They offer a large assortment of board, card, and trivia games as well to use while there. Service is always fantastic.

First thing I noticed about this place was the big picture of Chun-Li on the window. This place had all kinds of old arcade games and really cool drinks to match. I had the ButterBeer and the Poison Apple and they were both good. Great casual place with TVs, and a small kids area. I definitely recommend

Reboot was a gret experience tonight! Its located in a very nice looking area. The vintage arcade games were an awesome blast from the past, and tokens are relatively cheap as well. Al the bartender was friendly and helpful. The Rick and Morty themed drink was an interesting one!

Fun retro video game bar in downtown Macon. They also have boardgames and cornhole. We played some classics and drank some beer, but the highlight of the evening was using the old Nintendo 64 console with friends. I hadnt played Mario Cart in years. Fun times. Will go back for sure

Love this retro arcade. Reasonably priced. Great for a datenight or going with a group of friends. My husband and I have been several times. I love their movie themed bingo. Their drinks are tasty and none of their staff have ever been rude to us. Be prepared to show ID after 6pm. Cool place to bring your kids during early hours. Well stocked with all kinds of board games and corn hole.

Full bar with themed specialty drinks, fun variety of arcade and board games, and local art for purchase on display. Reasonable prices and welcoming staff. With tournaments and happy hours, there are lots of ways to experience and interact at the bar, maybe a great date night or just to hang out with other arcade lovers.

Ive never seen anyone deposit an entire roll of quarters into their mouth at Reboot. Contrary to popular opinion this place doesnt accept IOUs. Rumors claim that a gentleman named Robbie Reichert holds the title for most consecutive games of beer pong lost at Reboot. This place smells strongly of pixels and game tokens. The food menu is concise and features the best Vienna Sausage Empanadas on Cherry Street.

Review №37

Reboot is everything you need for your 90s kid nostalgia. Old school games, consoles and arcade! They also have a plethora of board games and card games. And dont feel left out if you like pinball, they have several of those as well. I always enjoy myself here. And if you visit, ask for a shot of the Bill Cosby, at least one of the bartenders there should know what it is.

The dream of my youth becoming true - a bar with good beer, Arcade machines (incl the original Namco Galaga!), playable pinball machines and driving games. One play 25 ct, tokens available at the bar.Highlight in Macon! Not to miss!

Review №46

This place has been open for a couple of years now and lots of new places have been added downtown, but it is still the coolest place in town to get a drink. The video games are mostly well maintained and cheap, the drinks are good and reasonably priced, the people are all awesome, and the staff is very good. So lucky to have this in Macon.

Review №47

Games and drinks. The perfect combination. Whether youre looking to have fun on arcade classics or want to chill with some newer board games, this is the place for you. Bring the kids during the day or leave them at home in the evening. Either way, its a good time and a great way to have some fun.

The games are mostly a quarter and sometimes games are set to Freeplay. You can go to the bar to get controllers for playing retro games on emulators at no cost. Also free Cornhole. Drink prices are also very reasonable.Love the bartenders. Always helpful, and friendly, though they get super busy at night.

I found this wonderful place by accident. So happy I ended up here, getting some drinks and playing some games. They have something going on every night, it might be 2 for 1 Wells, or trivia, but there is something going on. Bartenders are very friendly. Theres a good assortment of games (some have broken buttons), consoles to play for free, and traditional backyard games.

If you were born in the video arcade days, youll love this place. I was instantly struck with nostalgia as soon as I walked into the building. Pac man, Galaga, crazy taxi, pinball machines...and so much more. I went with my girls who are both in their twenties, so I wont date myself, but I felt right at home. Love this place. Will visit again.

Stopped in after having some lunch with my family. Great 80s-90s era games like X-Men vs Street Fighter Mortal Kombat II, Pac-Man, etc. Each game is a just a quarter! They also have a full bar, snacks, and an area to play retro console games.

I had a few drinks and enjoyed some Double Dragon arcade and pinball. They also have console gaming of different systems on two large screen CRT TVs that that was cool. Atmosphere is welcoming and am looking forward to have a few more brews there and drop some more tokens.

Not my ideal first date place since youll be too busy spending time on many of the retro arcade machines and pinball. But date 2 or 3 and youll be laughing and enjoying money well spent on a retro experience i havent had in a long time.

One of my must visits in macon. Excellent drinks, attentive bar staff, $0.25 arcade games, and free console games. They check your ID at the door and routinely have events during the week as well as themed nights and cocktails. My wife and I visit Reboot multiple times a month and love it. Its always packed and an just an all around excellent place to have fun. Whether you are 21 or 51 this is the perfect bar to hang out.

Review №91

A good place to go at night if youre barely old enough to drink or pushing 50 and looking to reminisce a your old arcading days. Drinks are interesting but mediocre. Games were in good shape, had a fairly large variety of different types of games.

Always a full house and very fun. Its much quieter in the day time but at night its poppin! They have everything from board games to cornhole to Street Fighter to pinball. The game nights and trivia nights are the best. They have nerd themed drinks too, my personal favorites are Fraggle on the Rocks and the Hyrule Mule.

A great place for the geeky and nerdy to be their selves! Theyve got tons of arcade, pinball, classic console, and even board games to play with nerdy drinks too! The owners are great people who love talking with their patrons about the detailed inner workings of pinball machines, Harry Potter and more. Plus they have fun events all the time! Truly a great stop in downtown Macon.
