Those cheese curds are amazing! Food really good also. Some seems a lil bit over crowded but definitely worth it. Only giving 3 stars because some days games are free but some days they charge. Both times I went seem like my waitress was new. But the short bartender didn't catch her name is amazing. Think she knew or service was not the best and she came and helped out read more

Great concept and food! The service needs work, the waiter was not attentive, she spent most of her time chatting it up at the bar with the other servers. Once we paid our tab we went to the bar and a short women with a baseball hat was so rude and acted like we was bothering her just for asking for a drink. read more

Love this place! Food is delicious Cocktails are to die for!! Staff and management so nice. Definitely coming back I think this is going to be our meeting up place. ~Cari B read more

We looked forward to visiting Khaos and trying this building's third brewery label. The layout of the brewery has garage doors that offer an open air atmosphere that spills seating onto the front sidewalk. The interior includes a main square bar with seating around, then tables around that periphery for diners and drinkers alike. Video games lined most of the walls. That's where the small talk ends.. My entree, which should have taken a lot longer to prepare than my wife's, came out 20 minutes before hers did. Being a gentleman and waiting for hers to arrive rendered mine to go cold. Cold fish isn't a good meal. She was also served a flat soda, asked for a replacement (and different type of soda) and was given yet another flat soda. The problem was our far less than attentive server. A small group of servers including her stood and talked no farther than 20 feet away, and she could clearly see that I was sitting back in my chair with full plate of food in front of me, while my wife sat and waited for 20 minutes. It was easy to surmise that our waitress forgot to put her entree order in. And two flat soda's...c'mon. After she told her about the second one she didn't offer to do anything about it, except tell the manager. Then we watched her walk quickly back to her circle of other servers standing by the bar and yuck it up. Completely unprofessional. When our tab came there were no apologies as in not charging us for flat, undrinkable soda's. There they were on the bill. Again, another unprofessional move. All in all we had two flat soda's and one meal that went cold waiting for 20 minutes. We won't be back. And I can promise you we'll be warning others to steer clear. Horrible service...a complete joke. read more

We have been at Khaos several times.....food has gone downhill. Appetizers were good. My burger was dry and tasteless. When the waitress took the order I asked for a medium burger and she stated they are all cooked the same, which apparently meant very well done. My GF's Chicken Caesar salad was ok, but not as fresh as previous trips. The food was much better when they first opened. The staff was friendly, professional and efficient. Which hasn't changed. The bar couldn't make two of the drinks we tried to order because they were missing ingredients....which is not good planning on their end. The Deal breaker is this- $10 per person for a wristband to play unlimited games and that sounds like a great deal........until you realize over half of the games are inoperable or damaged enough that you can't play them as intended. That in itself stinks.....what makes it worse is that they know they are broken (have been since opening) and they continue to take peoples money knowing the machines are broke. To me that is just shady. In the end, we had high hopes for them since chop'd is phenomenal. But it's not worth the money for bad food and broken games. Definitely our last visit. read more

We had two types of calzones but they call them pockets? Both delicious. Also ordered cheese curds, burgers, wings, kids Mac and Cheese, plus we tried both the graham cracker ice cream sandwich and the chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich. We were celebrating my daughters graduation and needed somewhere that was savory, sweet, fun and where my 2 yr old grandson could also join us. This was definitely it! We got seated promptly and had a party of 8. They don't take reservations and it was a Friday night at prime time so I was happily surprised but they have plenty of seating. Food came out hot and delicious also for $12 you can get a wrist band to enjoy the arcade and use the bracelet for the next 3 days! The chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich was the better of the two options but they change their ice cream sandwich selection monthly I believe. Service was great I wish I remembered our servers name, she was awesome. Will definitely come come back again! read more

See all

Open atmosphere with a bar in the middle and arcade games surrounding. I had the Bacon Burger which is very greasy and had two decent size patties on it. Unfortunately it had no flavor, it was missing any sort of spice, even salt. The service for me was slow and waitress was non existent at 4 on a Friday when it wasn't busy yet. Other waitresses however were much better from what I saw. The plates on the table for appetizers were dirty, very dirty, as well as some of the silverware. The floor was dirty, yet the staff was all gathered at the bar talking before the evening rush rather than cleaning it. This is a fun place for kids, but otherwise it was not very good. I had a much better experience at the attached restaurant next door. read more

The staff was great and the food/beer was good. Leaving 1 star in hopes that management sees this. We just left, arrived for lunch around 12:45 on Saturday 7/13. There was a 6 year olds birthday party happening and the kids were completely out of control yelling at full volume and running between tables, even running behind the bar several times while we were there. They were almost tripping staff and the servers/bartender were so gracious with them. I'm hoping that management gives their staff some flexibility in addressing situations like this. That one party ruined the experience for everyone else. Both tables by us felt the same. Paid $75 to leave annoyed and stressed by obnoxious kids screaming and running free between tables, not even just in the arcade. Again, the staff was great and apologetic, but they should feel empowered to address situations that are ruining the experience for 90% of the patrons in the building. read more

Fun! Trendy! Cute/Cool! Tons of retro games! Some current games too! A wide variety of gaming genres! Keep in mind, if you just want to eat their delicious on trend bar food go Sat. or Sun. because the game bracelet is good Monday through Sunday, but if you buy the bracelet on Sunday it is only good for that Sun. Game on!!!! read more

Food is good Beer is just okay for a brewery Arcade was lame. For $10 especially. Two skee balls machines broke. Three pinball but only one worked. Both Mario cart not working. Both motorcycles race game not working. Some of the shooting games only one player worked. About 5 other games also broken & not workin Marz in Chicago has better beer and free video games If you're going to charge me for video games they should all work. Only 2 stars because I found centipede on the ms pac man game. Otherwise would be one star. Work force in area had much better beer. I'm not planning on going back but if you visit I'd recommend just going to Chopped for food. read more

Few things to say but I will keep it short. the food was decent I would say good at best bought two of these expensive pretzels. they have a great arcade setup in fact I spent 500 dollars trying to win my kid a stuffed animal in the claw machine then my kid placed his hand inside and he got stuck causing the fire department to come. Thank goodness for the timelines of these great employees. one tried to use canola oil to get him out but he is just a stubborn kid. After all of these antics the staff treated me and my kid to an ice cream sandwich while the firemen where helping us. So I would definitely come back but unfortunately my therapist advised against it. read more

Went on a Saturday was super busy food was good but it was really chaotic and the service was horrible

Wow! I really like this place. I honestly do not understand the negative reviews. I mean seriously people this place is dealing with short staff just like every restaurant. If you can't deal with that do us all a favor and stay home! The burgers were outstanding and the sides were also great. The beer list is small, but everyone I tasted was very good. Our server was super friendly and made our evening even more enjoyable. We didn't play any of the games, but I will next time. I am really looking forward to visiting again very soon. This is what North Plainfield needed! Thank you for opening!!!!! read more

This place is an awesome concept! Kid and adult friendly, something for everyone honestly from the games to the menu. My son loved his chicken nugget meal, they were like chicken chucks! I had the Buffalo cauliflower dip appetizer, spicy but good! Others at the table had tacos and the ahi tuna wrap. Everyone enjoyed their lunch. The staff was friendly and attentive even though they were short staffed. I think it was 2 employees and the manager just hustling it! Rave reviews on the fun factor, staff, and food! We will be back! read more

I visit craft breweries as a hobby. This may be 198 in the # I have visited. Khaos is a brew pub adjacent to another restaurant. When I arrived I noted that it was crowded and loud. The noise was month the people and the multitude of video games. I sat at the bar and it took 5-10 minutes to be noticed as there wasn't someone attentive at the bar. There appeared to be three employees and they were not solely at the bar attending to customers. One gentleman provided me a menu and another checked on me another 10 minutes later. The younger gentleman who served me took my order for a drink (I ordered a flight as I usually do), but never asked me about food. No one ever did. When I have to wait a while or not asked, my investment in wanting to spend $ at your establishment drops. He took my flight order and served me. My favorite of the four was the Cervasa lager which was very bright and crisp in flavor. The price of the flight was reasonable ($10) and the Wi-Fi was stable and worked well. I can't say I am enticed to return based on the noise and service, but the beer selections were good. read more

Food was great. Restaurant was clean. Employees were friendly. Our waitress, Brianna, was fantastic. Knowledgeable, friendly, attentive, and made us feel at home. read more

Pretty good. Awesome to see the barcade make a statement out here. Great selection of games for both kids and adults, and I appreciated having the darts while the kids played to their hearts content. It would be cool if you could bring drinks from chopd over as they have a better selection. The beers at khaos taste like a low temp yeast is being fermented at a high temp, so I don't know if I can sign off based on beer alone (too sour). But a few simple tweaks and this place is an easy five stars for the whole family read more

Fun place to eat and play a huge number of video games for a flat $10. Gorgeously painted walls incorporating video game characters. Great, reasonably priced food. Adjacent to Chop'd, their more upscale restaurant. read more

Came with a party of 4 on a Sunday night. Drinks were okay. Buffalo dip and pizza flight tasted great. Service was horrendous. After we closed out our (pricey!) tab, we intended to play some games and throw darts. Tried to get more drinks from the bar and was ignored by bartended, though they weren't busy. Darts were in horrible condition. read more

A great looking Brewery with a playroom video arcades and pinball this place has some good bear choices and plenty of Television screens and is a great Brewery new and the local area this place was packed with young adults who seem to be enjoying their time and in the summertime they have additional outdoor seating although the strip mall location is hardly the best and is pretty generic. Overall a great place read more

This place is truly a fun atmosphere. If you're into sports, there's games on the tvs. If you're into games, they have those old school arcades that are sure to bring on that good feeling. Great food and beer selections. Staff is great! Very responsive to customers. I will visit again and again! Kids stay occupied and parents enjoy their time. A win win! read more

Food was excellent, the Beer was even better! Will be coming back. Good experience all around. Great atmosphere. Friendly Service.

Love the food & the service is good! Kids enjoy playing the games while we have drink & adult conversations! Great place!

Have been to khaos a few times and always enjoy the original food on the menu (adult pb and j and the frito fries are a fav)! Love that my kids can run around and play the games while we can enjoy the beer and or fun cocktails. They have something for everyone! read more

What a fun place to go for adults and children!! Food. And drinks are amazing and the kids can play video games and be entertained while you get to relax!! Highly recommend!! read more

I love this place! My husband can't get enough of the games and great food too! Environment makes for a fun night out!

Hubby and I came here for our first date "day" in what seems to be forever. Decided to stop here out of the whim and it was a great one! Had the pleasure of trying this one of a kind drink called "1 Star Yelp Review" and it does NOT live up to its name.Will definitely come back with and without the kiddos read more

Khaos Brewcade & Kitchen - "1 Star Yelp Review" - Breweries Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

Started with the Haze in the Hole IPA ($7) and a Pineapple Shipwreck ($11). Good drinks!! The Pineapple Shipwreck was a bit on the sweet side, so be ready to start with a dessert if you order it. For appetizers, we started with half parmesan garlic half bitchin' buffalo wings, they were great! Next time, we'd get a full plate of buffalo since they were that good! Get a side of ranch! Next we got the Prima Donna and the Strawberry Moo Milkshake IPA to drink with the the cheese curds. I loved the Prima Donna, best drink I've ordered to date. Great atmosphere. Only reason we didn't rate a 5/5 was due to an eyelash hair in my drink read more

What a fun place to hang out! Great food and drinks. The service was fantastic. We will be back!

A great place for amazing drinks, good service, and family friendly!!! Definity would recommend.

People are so critical, they're easy with the 1 stars for any infraction but so guarded to give out 5.... We went here with a group. The server worked hard, it was busy, things took a little longer. She was nice. Everyone like their food....I loved mine. I can't stop thinking g about the 3 little pigs burger. The kids liked the games, but the skeeball game was down and the kids were vocal about that, but overall. I like this place and I will be back. I wasn't crazy about the beer selections, all brewers should mimic recipes from Hopbutcher, Phase Three or Pollyanna. read more

Horrendous service. Insane wait times. The waitress spilt half of my drink. Will not be returning.

The BEST cheeseburger I have ever had! Flavorful and juicy! Arcade games are super fun, and we had fantastic service!! Thank you Tylor and Kymee for the laughs and for taking wonderful care of us!! We will be back!! read more

First time trying and it didn't disappoint. Nina served our group and she was attentive and amazing! We tried the pockets, the khaos burger, Mac & cheese and their humongous cheese pretzel. All the food tasted great! The best part was the classic arcade games they had available throughout the place. My kids loved it and I had a bit of nostalgia seeing the games I played when I was their age. Great place and I will come back again. read more

Went here tonight with a group of my girlfriends for dinner and drinks. Since we are all mostly young and most of us freshly 21 they asked to see our IDs. We all work at a different bar so we understand how it works. They took our IDs and went into the back to check with their manager to see if they were real. Our waitress comes back out and says that her manager said that all of our IDs were fake and couldn't serve us drinks. All of our IDs were in fact real 3 of us being 21 and one of us being 22. They gave us no explanation as to why they thought they were fake and was kind of rude about it. we ended up leaving. If you are freshly 21 you might not want to come here for drinks they will turn you away. They need to do a better job at learning fake IDs from real ones. Very disappointing. read more

Unique concept of arcade and brewery. Unique and tasty food and beer selection. Great deal on wrist bands for the arcade. My sons and grandsons had a blast! read more

Everything was incredibly over salted. Fries, burger, fish tacos. Un edible. After complaining, we had to ask for new food without "seasonings ". And then it was bland. The Burnt End and pineapple nachos we ordered, lacked meat. We were left with 80% empty chips. Very disappointed. Over priced. 3 beers, 2 drinks, nachos and 50% off the "re ordered " food was still almost $90. We won't go back on that side but maybe try the " Chop'd" side read more

The food was delicious, even though Im not a fan of thin burger patties that fall apart, it was still good. The arcades were awesome! So many old school games I forgot about as a kid. Atmosphere was great. And our server, which was the bartender, was amazing. On top of her game! However, very little beer selection and their own beer they brew was not the best. Their IPA, wheat beer, and Porter almost all taste the same. Given this place is brand new, can't be perfect. But overall it was a great time! read more

Service was good and fun atmosphere. Food is meh. Dry chicken on salad and overcooked burger.

Was excited to try this place as I am a fan of their other restaurants in town. Wanted to try a specific menu item that looked great (shrimp and grits) they don't have it anymore as they are changing their menu but don't have it crossed off. Daughter wanted cheese curds (not bad, not great) for dinner so we ask for them to come out at the same time.....not even close. She ate alone early and by the time mine came she was already done. Ended up trying the chicago beef pocket (good flavor, dough slightly underdone and hard to chew). Mentioned it to the waitress and she could have cared less. Such a a shame as I really wanted to like this place but will stick with the other spots they have. read more
