Reviews for The Rec Room in Barrie, ON
This place is great. Lots of fun games for adults and kids. Although my group didn't go for food or drinks, the menu looks... awesome. Most games were in working order and everyone was civil to each other when waiting their turn. Not that it's thislocation's fault, but I put $30 on two cards in the downtown Toronto location and when I tried to use them here, they were"invalid". Now I have to dig up receipts and contact the Toronto location and see what's up... Read more
Each person needs their own gaming card. We got 2 gaming cards and loaded 35 $ worth of credits to each and after all the fees... it was about 86$ for 2 of us to play games. Every game is tap and uses wifi so alot of the games kept loosing connection andsome just wernt working at all. After playing games thete was a 20 minute wait for our table to get food. The food came fairlyquick and we were happy with taste and portion. We really enjoyed the calamari ! The food pricing was average to any otherrestauraunt. Our dinner bill for 1 app and 2 entrees ( no drinks ) came to around 55$ so for gaming and eating for the 2 of usit was around $140. Not a cheap night out but fun for a special occasion Read more
Celebrated my brother's 10th birthday there. There was tons of entertainment, the server was extremely nice and helpful, and the... food was pretty good. It's a really nice place and I definitely recommend not just for birthday parties but also just to havefun! Update: Went again just for fun, and again, it was amazing. Super fun, and rewarding.

OMG what a blast. NOT a place for anyone with sensory issues, just fyi. That needs to be a warning, due to constant noise and... flashing lights. Also, WEEKEND DINNER RESERVATIONS ARE MADE 1-2 WEEKS IN ADVANCE. Don't just walk in for dinner. This place is aHOT SPOT and very in demand for Friday/Saturday nights. Dinner was great. Games were so fun. Place is kept very clean. Workersare walking around and fairly easily found if there's an issue. Definitely a great night out or a fun afternoon for the fam. Read more
My wife and I went here for a date night. The vegan and vegetarian options at the restaurant was really impressive. We got... seated at the bar because all the tables were reserved but the huge TV’s on the wall, live music and the bar staff made ourfirst visit super fun. After our drinks, meal and desert we played some video games, ping pong ???? and even tried our luck atthe giant claw machine. This was a fun night and I think we will go back again some night after 11pm when it’s just for theadults. Read more
This place is SO FUN! My partner and I went here last week for our anniversary, and we really didn’t want the average... expensive dinner date. This place combines class and recreation effortlessly; with the staff being super fun and engaging, andfood being superb. Only bummer was half the arcade games kept losing internet connection, so once we’d played all theconnected ones, it felt useless waiting around for staff to fix the rest. I’m not even sure if they were doing thateither. Also, you must have closed in shoes for bowling, yet they have pairs for hire behind the counter, but won’t let youuse them. We thought that was so stupid, covid is gone with the wind now, and there’s no social distancing, cleaning of thegames for hygiene per use, and no masks, yet we can’t use the shoes? So that meant no bowling for us (because I was wearingsandals). Otherwise, it was a great evening. We stuck to the pin pong tables majority of the night. Read more
The premises was clean, and the arcade was nice. Food was good. Some staff were decent, some were great, and some were ignorant.... Large party of people on a Saturday night. Manager was great. Bowling alley is a bit dangerous. The couch seating on the rightmost bowling lane abut's a bar height table top that is a head hazard for patrons sitting. One of our group was struck the backof her head on the bar height table top while sitting down. Ended the night unceremoniously. Should probably be corrected toprevent future injury. Read more
