They offer a nice variety of beers and non-alcoholic options, and they're starting to include guest taps, which is great. I prefer their sours. They also offer a nice private room that can be used for events or markets. I've attended more than a few events at BCB over the years since they took over the space and they've all been well put together. Prices are affordable and the vibes are good. I wouldn't hesitate to return.

This place is mostly amazing, with a couple of minor blips. The majority of the people working are…read moregreat. There is a mother-daughter duo that are so friendly and helpful. Most of the games are well-maintained and fun to play, which is a heck of an accomplishment when most of the games are as old as I am. I did get somewhat annoyed that my kiddo and I had sat at the bar when nobody was there so we could eat and drink and then we left our drinks on the bar since we were still drinking and they were very cold. We came back a few minutes later and sat back in the seats with our drinks and the new bartender told us that my kiddo couldn't sit there since it was 21 and older only. Okay, that's annoying, but we grabbed our sodas and moved to the table beside the bar, BUT THEN a dad and his kid come up and sit at the bar... and she serves them without chasing them off... So... apparently it's only SOME 12 year olds can't sit at the bar with their parents? Or maybe only the ones whose parents are drinking cocktails and not ones who are drinking diet sodas and eating fries? Also, the bar is HUGE and it is not at all crowded on a random weekend afternoon. And even though there are tables and cup holders near every gaming station, my kiddo has ASD and he is a wanderer, so we left our food and drinks at our table, and they change bartenders about every two hours, so our table got bussed by the new bartender and we had our almost entirely full basket of funnel cake fries and drinks thrown away. The sodas got remade, which was nice, but also... that's like $8 out of $11 worth of funnel cake fries that got tossed. Not like we can walk around with those at the small gaming tables. So I wish there was a little "I'm still gaming, please don't throw away my food." Coaster or something you could put on the table so they know not to waste your food. Or avoid ordering greasy bar food unless you can eat it all in one sitting, which... isn't always easy. I would absolutely come back and play the heck out of the games. I would just probably eat first next time.

My friend recommended we hang out here before another event we were going to so we stopped by. Street parking only so you're dependent on the luck of the draw there. The cashier had a rough time getting the computer to work to register our cards for the draft beer wall, though it did finally relent and she was nice. I was trying to figure out their hours since they aren't on their website or Instagram, and Google and Apple Maps say different things. Who knows? I liked their beer options, bunch of domestics along with some unique drafts and (important to me) dark beers. I had a port city porter and a Deschute Black Butte that was pretty good. Prices are what you expect from Scott's Addition, though if you want to keep it cheap they have affordable domestics for you. For anyone who went to Slingshot and liked it, you're in luck: this place is basically the exact same. Same duckpin bowling, same handful of basic arcade games, same seating. It's a good place for a date or hangout, though given the design it can get loud quickly, which it most definitely would during the live music they frequently host here. All things considered, with Circuit gone, if you absolutely need a distraction at your bar, Scotty's will provide. It has a decent beer wall and some outside seating, though I wonder how it will differentiate itself among its many peers in this area when Slingshot couldn't hack it. Overall: 3.0 stars --- Pros: - Nice staff. - Decent beer selection, with affordable domestics. Cons: - Craft beers at what you might expect to pay these days, I.e. pricy. - Games are present but basic. - Gets loud quickly due to layout.
