AFKgg Gamer Lounge - San Jose, California

It's $10 bucks an hour to rent a single classic console with unlimited(one at a time) access to many games. To change consoles you have to pay for a new hour. They have modern consoles, but it costs more per hour. Their food is ok, but it's $16 for an entree. There's also a computer cafe, but I'm not sure what that costs. They have a drink menu, but I personally didn't have any.
I went with a group of 6, and we got good use out of a N64. At the end of the hour, we asked for an Xbox 360, but they were unavailable. Then we asked for a PS2, but it took 20 minutes to come, and by that time we were ready to leave. The service was kinda slow. We got 3 pizzas for $16 each, but they were not quite big enough to feed 2 each.

I went here with some of my younger coworkers after they convinced me and I ended up having a blast! I haven’t played a video game in some time and I still enjoyed it. Gamers often have the stereotype of being recluses, but this place fostered such a great social atmosphere.

The served bar style food and delicious drinks while you get  to play video games. They have classics like Tetris and lots of new school games too! This is such a unique place!

Took my 15 year old son to a CSGO tournament. Honestly, I've never been to a gamer Lounge before and it was very interesting. They had lots of monitors and a big screen with plenty of comfortable couches and booths. Lots of gaming consoles downstairs. There was also a bar and food served but I did not utilize either one. Very nice staff. Tournament could have been more organized but overall a very good experience for both my son and I. I would definitely go back.

I came in here just to kill some time waiting for my flight home, and didn't expect to find the gaming lounge is always fantasized about.
The wait staff was very accommodating and happily answered all my questions. Despite the multiple consoles and house music, it is actually easy to still hold a conversation. The bar menu is extensive, and the decor is eye catching without being tacky as many video-game themed places tend to be.
The food is equally surprising. Even off of peak hours, you can taste the care that went into the Philly cheese steak, and the potato chips are made fresh. I can't wait to try the Pyro burger!
The menu prices are reasonable, and there are free consoles available if you are willing to be patient and courteous.
Overall, a well hidden gem of San Jose!

If you are a gamer and are in the downtown San Jose area you HAVE to check this place out. Sure there are N64 consoles hooked up in the upstairs area and they serve perfectly acceptable drinks and food, but the real party is downstairs. There's an entire LAN center, plus if you're in to the Overwatch League they have viewing parties!

Place is fun just wish the prices were a little cheaper. Its basic food at nice food prices. Im sure its not cheap to keep those games running but for those prices ill eat elsewhere and then game there.

Highly recommend this place to meet friends for drinks and enjoy some board games. Fun atmosphere. They have outdoor seating in the back which is pretty nice. It can get really loud though from the venue next door.

This place is super cool. Seems like a have heaven. I'm not super into games but my friends are and we all had an absolute blast. The staff was so friendly, nice, nerdy (good thing), and knowledgeable! There were a lot of different options old and new which I was surprised about. You can feed into your childhood nostalgia like playing star Fox or go with something current. The games for the hour we're super cheap too. Food wasn't anything amazing for the prices you pay. Drinks were solid though. The place did look a little dirty which I was surprised about. I went in around 7 on a Friday. I would definitely recommend though. I'd say get dinner somewhere nearby maybe on San Pedro and then go there for drinks and games!
