Reviews for The Rec Room in St. John's, NL
Pretty good food, I was happily surprised and great games, they could improve the pool tables and some games glitch sometimes... but they are super friendly and will credit back the games, so enjoy and be sure to bowl at the 10 pin, super fun. Read more
Arcade is fun but food and service isn't the best. Over priced and quality isn't there. Let the waiter know I was going to play... the games for 15min. When I got back they had another crew sitting at my table. Read more
We visited to play some games and ordered the classic nachos + crispy chicken bites. We were unhappy with both. The classic... nachos were drenched in a gross "beer cheese sauce" with a little melted mozzarella and chopped green onion. No better than abargain basement queso sauce that you'd find at a hockey arena. The crispy chicken bites had a strong favor of fish. I suspecteverything is fried in the same oil which is not changed regularly. The games are fun but don't eat here. Read more
First and last time I would go to the restaurant. I was hyped to go myself and husband have never been. I called to check and... ask if they had any promotions for dinner and a movie? I was told yes, as long as you spend $70 in the restaurant they give 2free movie tickets, and that's what made me book a table. Arrived at 6 placed order. Waitress didn't know the menu and keptleaving us to ask others or check computer.....we were patient with her, when I mention spending 70 get two free movie ticketsshe says yes. So we order, food is 3/10, cost $100 ( mvp platter) she returns with a coupon buy one get one movie tickets? Shesaid she asked manager and he was unaware of any promotions. Had I known that I prob wouldn't even went, epically wouldn't havemade sure to spend 70$ and would have probably ordered nachos or so an somethings else if I was gonna get a couponanyways? Horrible experience. Won't be back Read more
Terrible. My wife and I stopped by before our movie. Rare that we see a movie so we came with tons of time. We ordered a beer... and a glass of wine. We had 1hr 20 mins until our movie started. Took 20 mins to get our drinks and we waited another 40minsbefore we flagged our server down for the last time to say we were leaving. They comped the drinks. Still not at all worth it. Iwant my hour back. At least we could have went to the food court. 60 mins for 2 drinks. Understaffed or not, that’s pathetic.It was a Tuesday. Restaurant about 20% full. We ordered hummus and tacos — very quick turnaround foods. Read more
Great place. Really good food. Great staff. I don't like taking the kids to eat here tho. They wont eat they just look down at... the games and ask repeatedly when can they go back playing :) Read more
Very good social distancing measures in place. Nice variety of games for all kinds of skill levels. Didnt eat there so can't... comment in the food, but the gaming side was good for 3 kids. Read more
I ordered the Three 10 burger, service was fast, but when I started to eat my burgers I realized why.. The burger patties were... previously cooked and re-grilled/heated. It had that dried-out cardboardy taste that you get when you warm up leftover burgersfrom a BBQ at home. Gravy on my poutine was a pre-packaged cornstarch/beef based gravy. The place was dead in terms of how busyit was. I suspect that the pizza crusts are prepackaged as well, because my wife ordered a pizza, only to be informed shortlyafter that they "ran out of crusts.." so she ordered a spicy chicken burger, which she said was freshly cooked and tasty. Wewere in in a hurry to eat and go to the movie, so I didn't bother to fuss about my food and possibly experience a delay.. I'msure that if you are there during a busy time, the burgers would be fresh and not previously cooked and reheated. The place haspotential, its slightly elevated food-court fast food, served on nice plates/cutlery and in a nice atmosphere. Service was good. Read more
