GTSouth Gaming & Geek Tavern

This place has fantastic drinks, I usually leave with a much smaller bar tab than I expected! Now they’re serving FOOD! The Boba Feta is especially delicious, accompanied by some delicious sides (I prefer the Sonic Rings!).
There is a wall lined with last gen consoles (PS3, Xbox 360) and a Wii U located at the front with a Retron for old school gaming! Every Thursday they have a retro tournament to knock some money off of a bar tab.
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, they also tend to have karaōke every weekend as well as specialized events that require audience participation. You never have to worry about looking over your shoulder at this bar. There are always friendly people looking for interaction. This place is one of a kind and a wonderful thing for the city to have!

I love that this place exists. It’s a fun alternative for a Saturday night. My boyfriend and I are both geeks at heart and love coming here. We sip tasty drinks while meeting new people over a game of Jenga or whatever our heart desires. You can bring your own games (video or board) but they have a pretty impressive selection. I don’t love the location or that there is a cover, but every business needs to make money somehow. I look forward to going back.

Awesome idea for a bar, however it needs serious improvement. The bar is located in a shopping area which is ok because it is not really a hardcore bar, the place is small and can get easily crowded if there are lots of people, it feels like it could be a cyber café place instead. Cover fee is $ 5 which I guess is ok because you have access to play video games as long as you want. However, only half the consoles were functional (there is about 15) and it was hard to find a ps3 controller that was working, that night there was about 3 ps3 working, 2 Xbox 360 and 2 Nintendo wii, but the wii were reserved for a tournament which cost another $ 5 to enter, also they did not have the numchuks for the wii only classic and GameCube controllers. There was also no newer games, I only saw older games, I believe COD Black Ops 1 and Halo Reach were the only newer ones I saw. Luckily it was a Friday when I was there and Fridays apparently are animé night and they play Animé in a big screen in high quality. I am not a big fan of animé, but it was interesting. The people on the bar are geeks and they are friendly. This place has a lot of potential.

A bar for geeks! Instead of being lined with tables or a dance floor this bar is wall to wall gaming. Large selection on video games to play on the many consoles. Easy to bring in and set up tabletop gaming. Reasonably priced drinks made by friendly and passionate owners.
