Step 1: Choose Your Space

Main Dining Room

For groups of 16 or less, a dinning room reservation is all that is needed! We have an array of different seating types including booths, standard and bar height tables. Let us know if you need a highchair or have other accessibility requirements. Buyouts and other custom designed events also use this space.

Front Event Room

Mix of bar height and table seating. Ten games are in the room for your group's exclusive use, including Tetris and Guitar Hero. Windows overlook the patio and Derby Street. Seating for 30 people and standing room for up to 50 total. Sometimes used as a “home base” for larger groups. $300 peak days or $200 off peak for three hours.

Bar Booth Area

Easy access to the bar. Seating is in 3 large booths and a bar height table. A little distanced from the games but with quick access to the photo booth. Seating for 30 people and standing room for up to 40 total. Sometimes used as a “home base” for larger groups. $150 peak days or $100 off peak for three hours.
