    This place is awesome! Great staff, great ambience and nostalgic as hell! If you grew up in the 80's and 90's you will LOVE this place. There's something for everyone here. Food is pretty good dive bar type food. The wings were great! Our waitress was attentive and super friendly. The host at the front door is a gem; keep him around!

    Place was super fun and vibey af. Drinks tasted like blackout juice with a hint of hangover. A was my bartender the whole time and he was a chiller ("A" was his name). When we went there were a whole bunch of diva queens flaunting around but that just added to the cool vibey ambiance. I would go back here to spend all my money on the arcade. My only problem with Play Arcade is that I suck at dance dance revolution.

    Violets Mac attack (Vegan Friendly)

    Play arcade is super cool. They had a variety of video games and other arcade games which made a super fun atmosphere. While we were there, we stopped by the bar to order some food. The staff was super friendly! I am lactose intolerant so i was very excited to see a lot of vegan options. We ordered: - Little Mario w/ Vegan Cheese Pizza: Red Sauce and Cheese blend dusted with fresh basil -Players Choice Pizza: Red Sauce, Mushrooms, Pepperoni with vegan cheese -Violet's Mac Attack: Vegan Friendly mac and cheese OMG the pizzas were amazing! The vegan cheese on the pizza was the best I've ever had. The cheese was melted nicely and didnt have the usual vegan cheese after taste. This cheese made me actually believe that it was normal cheese haha. I liked that they had the players choice option and i could build my own pizza since i do like eating meat, i just cant handle normal cheese. The thin crust was perfectly crispy and held the toppings well without flopping. The Violet's Mac Attack was good. Since we ordered the vegan version, I think the sauce was more like a sweet potato or butternut squash blend for the creamy parts and topped with vegan cheese. It was good but I think i prefer a cheesier flavored mac and cheese (unfortunately these hurt my tummy). Overall i was still happy with the dish. If you're in the area, definitely stop by and check out the games. if you are lactose intolerant or vegan, you'll have a lot of great options to choose from off the food menu!

    best barcade EVER, seriously! the vibes here are absolutely immaculate + the games are so fun, there is a good mix of retro and modern games. the drinks here are great and fun too, my fav is the ghost energy mixed with vodka/tequila (whatever you're feeling!). i've never seen them anywhere else but they are so so good! i recently tried the food and i really enjoyed it too, the loaded tetris tots are to die for! i also love that they're allergy friendly with actually yummy options - the gluten free pizza was GREAT! no cardboard crust and really good flavor. 1000% recommend this place - whether you come for a night out, to play some games, or for wednesday night trivia (our fav!) you're guaranteed to have a great time :)

    Chicken bacon ranch pizza

    Alright let's start with the food! The pizza is well worth the price. At about $14 it feeds 3 of us. It's super tasty, thinner crust but not burnt, and they are very generous with toppings. They had a steak and asparagus special that was to die for! I've also tried their chicken bacon ranch, with extra veggies (free), it was also AMAZING! The loaded Tetris tots were also very yummy, and well portioned. Sliders were a little too well done. So far most things we've ordered have fed at least 2 people, the price was pretty fair for the potions. The only sweet food item is the rice krispy basket, these were also good! The chocolate ones were a little on the stale side but taste wise - absolutely worth it! Drinks: I'll personally only be sticking to beer. I've tried multiple drinks and was now impressed by the quality. But they have a decent tap variety for brews. Atmosphere: The rooftop area is perfect for a nice night or sunny day. They have 4 swings that face street side, these were a super cool touch. The arcade hosts live music events are up there every few days. Arcade: You get a fair amount of coins for $10. The cool thing is if you don't cash, you can add coins to your tab. The games are fun, but there isn't too much of a variety. Guitar hero, DDR and the terminator are some fun classics. Air hockey and basketball are also pretty cool. I don't much care for the pinball machines or the super old stuff. They also have board and card games for free, we usually play uno while we wait for our food.

    The Nook is a really special place. In my opinion, places like Mirasol are extremely overrated…read morecompared to what The Nook offers. The drinks here are outstanding. The Painkiller is fantastic, especially if you add caramel. The Epic Vanilla Skooma is dangerously addictive - the flavor profile is incredible, and honestly nobody else in the area comes close. The Buzz is another excellent choice. The food is just as impressive. Their linguica and cheese rolls are leagues above the competition, and I'd put them alongside the very best around. I highly recommend ordering a regular cheese roll leveled up with egg, bacon, and their house-made hot sauce. If you enjoy a Portuguese style hot sauce, this combination is absolutely worth trying - you will not be disappointed. The peanut butter cookie is unreal; I genuinely wish I had the recipe. The baked goods are consistently excellent, and whenever they have a special, just order it. I've rarely been disappointed by anything they've made. I used to live nearby and honestly miss having this place around. Their pizzas deserve recognition too. They're some of my favorite bar style pizzas in the area. If you prefer an ultra thin pizza, you might lean toward Dipper Cafe, but it's hard to beat The Meatball Thing, the Thanksgiving pizza during the holidays, and many of their other specialty pies. The atmosphere adds even more to the experience. They have arcade style games you can play while you wait, and the music is always great. If you're into King Diamond or heavier music, you'll probably hear something you love. If you live nearby or are just passing through the area, don't skip The Nook. For me - and for everyone I've recommended it to - The Nook easily earns the title of best coffee shop in the area.

    -ONE PARAGRAPH REVIEW-…read more The Nook has great coffee. The Nook has great food- not entrés but café stuff: sandwich rolls, focaccias, muffins, etc. The Nook has old school, retro vibes. It has rock music vibes. It has creative, inspirational vibes. It has quiet, read-a-book-in-the-nook vibes but also loud Donkey Kong-guitar riff-crunchin' vibes; depending on the time and the day. It's perhaps a tad too small inside, but that's what makes it a nook. Lots of hot and iced coffee options, food is quality over quantity: get their signature cheese or linguica roll as-is or "leveled up" to make it an egg sandwich because it's the best around. And their focaccias are made like a pizza and imo are better than their actual pizza! Ok that's a paragraph!

And when Ella told me the reason I was a bit disappointed on the reason. That is the biggest reason why I chose them yesterday. I love the place, great service, great food, and extremely clean.

    Exceptional Scratch-Made Comfort…read more Joe's Original in Dartmouth continues to be an absolute staple for a fantastic, high-quality meal. What used to be *Not Your Average Joe's* has evolved into a localized, scratch-kitchen experience that leans heavily into creative comfort food and wood-fired mastery. The menu effortlessly balances crowd-pleasing classics with inventive twists. The **Mustard Crusted Chicken** is a masterclass in execution--perfectly juicy with a tangy, crisp exterior, paired beautifully with rich mashed potatoes. If you're sharing, the **Ahi Tuna Wontons** or their uniquely sweet and spicy **Buffalo Caribbean Chicken Tenders** offer a perfect kickoff. Their artisan wood-fired pizzas, like the **Hot Honey Pepperoni**, feature a flawless, airy crust that keeps locals coming back. With consistently accommodating service, top-tier seasonal cocktails, and an energetic yet welcoming atmosphere, Joe's Original delivers a polished dining experience without any pretension. It is reliably delicious, every single time.
