I went here with my friend for something to do during the day to kill some time and we had a blast. There is fun for adults and children! The bar area is big enough to handle busy times and I always had a drink in my hand. The selection of pin ball was cool and other random games. I was also happy to try their VR games ! Fun times!
Fun spot to play games. Was gifted a $50 gift card to play. But they didn't state you'd have to pay an additional activation fee + taxes for the wrist band. A bit misleading for those purchasing gift cards. Food was alright. Can get crowded at night. The best time to go is early afternoon.
We stopped her for drinks and a light lunch while walking downtown. The place has a casino style gaming area, a bar, a restaurant and a meeting hall all within the old railway roundhouse. It makes for a very interesting facility, but was quite noisy. The food was excellent. We had one of their pizzas and it was delicious.
The dinning part of my first visit to The Rec room could be better. First, the waitress did not collect my scene points as she said she would after ending her shift on that day. Second, she offered me a special ice flavored tea that I was really good but she charged me $5 without informing me this. Te portion of the crispy chicken bites was very very small to be shareable between 3 people and the margarita pizza had no almost no taste.
What a great place to go after the Jay's game! Very busy, but fun atmosphere. The games room was expansive and had lots of active options like hoops and air hockey as well as some classic games
The "I'm with the band" live karaoke is the coolest thing ever. Food and service were standard bar fare. Overall a really fun place with no cover charge on a Friday night!

I come here all the time with friends to play at the arcade and it's a bonus to be able to sit and eat here mid-play when we get hungry. Evenings you can expect long wait times for a table here and an even longer wait for a seat at the bar. It seems all the hectic buzz makes it a no-rules zone here.
For lunch, however, there's not much of a wait to be seated. It does take the servers a while to get to your table though and you may find yourself blankly staring at your other guests while waiting for someone to take your order, bring your food, or bring the bill. The servers were very kind and engaging though, always making everyone feel welcome and at home.
The food is pretty decent with hot and ready pasta as well as a juicy burger. I'll always come back to enjoy the arcade though.

We recently dined at The Ref Room for a swift lunch, and our experience was notably positive. The service was commendable, and the promptness with which our meals were presented was impressive. The culinary offerings were not only delectable but also generously portioned. While the general cleanliness of the establishment was well-maintained, a minor observation would be that the seating arrangements exhibited some signs of wear, with torn benches and somewhat rugged seating. Nevertheless, our overall impression remained favorable.
Our server left an excellent impression, demonstrating attentiveness and professionalism. The establishment's location also proved to be alluring, boasting an extensive selection of arcade machines, thereby enhancing the overall ambiance. Considering the totality of our experience, we are inclined to affirm our intent to revisit this venue in the future.

Visited because of company event so we only had a meal and did not play any arcade game. We had a fixed menu with the choice of burgers, chicken burgers, pizza, Cobb salad and tofu bowl. The food was good. The location was very spacious with what seemed a great patio area. Would love to come back the enjoy the patio and arcade games.
