Rento tunnelma, ystävällinen palvelu ja hyvä valikoima pelejä. Pientä purtavaakin tarjolla, jos nälkä yllättää.

Been here a couple times, great variety of games and very friendly and helpful staff. Downstairs can get very stuffy so prefer upstairs or the terrace (if it's available, at time of writing contruction work has it closed) food selection is very small and don't expect anything more than what you would prepare yourself for a gaming session for a restaurant price (the place has to stay afloat somehow, they are otherwise very generous). Overall great place to be if you want to try new games (thanks to their large variety), entrance fee is always at least 12e.
