  The worst dining experience I have ever had. Our group of buddies visited Tampa for a bachelor party and decided to come here to get food and watch soccer/football on Sunday.
  
  There were maybe 15 people in the bar. Our group accounted for 10 of those. The bartender and management were incompetent. It took 20 minutes to change the channel to a game we wanted to watch and when they did they put it on tvs that we weren't facing. The bud light keg kicked after 2 beers. They ran out of glasses. They couldn't remember our order 2 seconds after taking it. Then they still got the order wrong after repeating it multiple times. One of the silverware napkins had an old jalapeño in it (wtf). On numerous occasions we ordered more beers and they completely forgot. And the food was the only thing more underwhelming than the service.
  
  Save your money, time, and frustration and go next door to Buffalo Wild Wings.

  My boyfriend and I visited Gametime last weekend when we came to visit Ybor. Since we both frequent arcades, we were excited to grab some drinks and play games. We ended up waiting for more than 15 minutes at the bar, without being acknowledged once despite there being 2 bartenders and 4 people already with drinks, so my boyfriend suggested we leave to grab drinks elsewhere.
  
  Fast forward to last night, Ybor was less busy since it was a Monday, and we decided to stop by to do the deal where you eat and then play afterwards with the $15 card.  To my surprise, I found a a short, metal wire in my chicken club! My boyfriend and I thought it was a staple at first, but when the waitress and manager checked, it was from the wire brush they used to clean the stove! The manager offered to provide the meal for free, and I told the waitress my boyfriend was on the same tab, but my sandwich was the only thing taken off. This was fine and we still paid for our meal without argument, but after telling my friends about this discover, they all said "what if you ate the wire??" and etc.
  
  Moving forward, some of the games we tried to play either took our card funds without starting or we would try to play some of the two player first person shooter games, and only one controller would be working right. Honestly, you're better off just going to Dave and Busters.
  
  Edit: the only plus last night was our super nice waitress (forgot her name, but she was blonde!). She was very accommodating and much friendlier and more apologetic than her manager when there was a wire found in my sandwich.

  First time here with a friend and it was okay however I didn't care how Smokey it was inside. It was food smoke, it appeared that the restaurant did not have proper air vents to release the smoke so it was thick to the point my clothes was smelling of food when we left. This definitely need to be fixed ASAP. I have a kid who have asthma and it's no way I could have stayed there to eat or play games with her going into an asthma attack. We just had a few drinks but nothing to eat and played a few games. It was okay.

  We had an absolute blast here I think this was the best place I went to during my trip.  Cant say anything bad about it at all.  Lots of games open clean safe environment.  Easy to get to and lots of things for grown ups as well as kids.  Awesome food great pricing.  I cant complain about anything.  We happend to stumble across this place while walking, my friends at first didnt wantvto come in but I convinced thm and Im glad we did.  We stayed for about 5 hrs between playing pool, eating pizza, extended happy hour and the hundreds of games we hadca great time.
