I think its funny how people think they can leave poor reviews without even trying the place out. Java is gone and it is unfortunate as I was a frequent customer and LOVED Jeff. Whatever happened with the landlord and Jeff is between them and no one truly knows what happened. With that said, I decided to give this place a try. The workers are all super friendly and is welcoming as soon as you walk in. I love the blue lighting and how it reminds me of pc bangs from Korea. The computers are also great! I haven't had a problem gaming here so far and if there is any problem the owner is super friendly and helps you right away. You can tell that they really care about the gamers and making sure that we get the best experience. I like this place so far and will continue to game here :) read more

Computers were great and I liked the environment. However I spent more than an hour of my time downloading updates for games that should have already been installed instead actually playing read more

Good computer setups, decent drink choices and good items. My complaints are that when it starts to get crowded it's too warm in there. I'm sweating while playing. Also if you're at a comp near the bathroom be prepared for a special smell. Some of the headphones are very worn out, some keyboards are missing keys. It's hit miss depending on what computer you get. Prices are very fair read more

Great location if you just wanna sign in and play Valorant or something. My crew tried to work with the staff to host a fighting game tournament for our friend group. We were willing to go about it in any way that the staff was comfortable. Unfortunately, the staff did not do anything that was agreed upon. We requested space be made on the drives so we could download Mortal Kombat 1 and Street Fighter 6 (both games take up about 100GB each). The staff told us they would make space overnight and they would be ready to go on Saturday. Come Saturday, no space was made on the reserved computers, the employee on duty that day was not made aware of our conversations with the owner, and space was NEVER made on the computers to accommodate our agreement. All in all, I don't want people to think poorly of this company. They deliver on their intended service very well and the entire facility is top notch. I just want to point out that the staff might have some difficulty if you come to them with a unique request. read more

(This Review is from a visit in August of 2023) We've been to Rank1 twice, and the staff has always been very kind. The concept is great- with good food options, games, and that Asian-style PC Bang approach. The center looks and feels great, with solid drink/snack options. That and it's always hilarious to hear some guy flaming other people in game super loudly. The vibes are immaculate LOL That said- I think there are some issues that could be addressed. The times we've visited, the computers have always had some weird interactions with certain games. Overwatch or Val would fail to start and take like 20 minutes off of our time. To be fair, the awesome dude working there would always refresh our time and he was very generous about it. I think an overall PC health check, reinstall of popular games, or hard drive defrag would probably help a lot of these issues. Another issue was that just that we ended up having to move several times because of peripherals not working. Keyboards sometimes had broken caps, and mice would fail to work. Other times, the peripherals would work but would be kinda greasy/dirty. Luckily, there are plenty of sanitizing stations and the staff is very kind, willing to wipe down anything for us. Again, I want to reiterate it's not the staff's fault. It just seemed like there was one dude working there, so he had a lot on his plate. Maybe the customers just don't treat the devices very well. Either way, we'll definitely be back. I just hope we can avoid some of these issues next time! read more

The landlord closed down java gaming cafe to open up this place because of the greed lord he is, java gaming cafe was a business that brought friends together, created a whole new place to call a second home, and was a place to make so many memories in such a spacious environment. The place is somehow made smaller to walk around on the inside even though they expanded the left side when you walk upstairs which is questionable of how that is even possible, natural sunlight does not exist when windows surround the computer area, and lastly this place will just not have the same vibe java had Looks- 4/10 The LED lights are such a basic thing and the lack of light doesnt give a natural light (have fun damaging your eyes) PC quality- ?/10 I have yet to play there because me and others refuse to spend money you can thank the landlord Vibe- 2/10 Some old Java guys used to go there but the place is filled with valorant players and no classic CS:GO, League of Legends, or Overwatch players. From what I see the people who go to play Valorant aren't true gaming nerds but only want to follow a trend and its shameless Pricing- 1/10 You have to pay to have access to the back rooms and a membership is $4 an hour? Back when java was opened it was $3 an hour FREE ACCESS to the back rooms and WAY BETTER discounts when you buy 6 hrs, 15 hrs, and 15hrs Will never be here and only went here to check it out read more

Rank 1 Gaming - LAN Centers Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Clean center with a decent amount of stations. Wish they had more and different variety of consoles. They have a nice area for people to wait if they are not gaming. There's multiple tv screens and seating for tourneys. read more

Finally something to do around the area besides eat! Got into pc gaming a long time ago and now have a set up at home but honestly it hits different gaming with friends together in person. They have food there too which is a plus, so far I've tried their strawberry smoothie, mozzarella sticks, and Cupbab, which was all super delicious. Oh and ramen but it's just cup ramen. Staff is beyond friendly, even came by to grab my trash for me LOL. Price per hour is alright in my opinion since other places I've been it's all the same price range. Another thing is I hope they get console gaming soon. Right now I play Val, OW, Maple, and Friday night funkin, but it would be super cool to play Smash Bros or overcooked with my friends. Will def be coming here as much as I can. read more

Rank 1 Gaming - Ramen + gaming :) - LAN Centers Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

If you have been wanting to get into PC gaming but haven't because of how expensive it is these days, this is for you. They have some sick PC's for a pretty good hourly rate. Plus every staff member I've spoken to so far is extremely nice, welcoming and accommodating to any requests for games etc. They also have snacks and smoothies. What more can you ask for honestly. read more

See all

I have 11 & 13 year old gamer boys that are serious about FPS, lag, strong wifi, etc. We just got back from taking them to the ESports gaming center in Las Vegas at The Luxor so anything else would have to be pretty legit to compete with that. This is the place to be. If they do it right they can expand and do more business. read more

The best spot to game! Fun and vibey environment, modern set up, and top notch equipment! I've been playing a lot of old games I've missed because of this place - highly recommend! read more

BEST PC BANG EVER! I travelled from California to Texas just for this place. Best experience I've ever had! The workers are soooo polite and just a friendly environment overall. 10/10 would go again! Y'all missing out for real read more

It's a great place to chill at. Sometimes it gets loud if there is a team in there yelling at each other. Other than that I kinda wish when you log out, it automatically logs you out of everything (steam, battle.net, YouTube) when I hopped on the pc, steam had another person account logged in. So if you ever go here, make sure you have enough time to log out of everything. read more

Love love love this place. The PC set up is so much better than my one at home. Not only that but, the community they built makes the atmosphere inviting. The food and smoothie are perfect food when gaming and they're made so fresh. Owner and workers are the sweetest people. Will be back soon~ read more

This place is hands down the best place to hang out in town!! Very chill place and it's very fun going here with your friends to chill and play games. Their prices are GREAT especially if you have the membership. The staff are really cool, chill and kind. Their food is also GREAT, I personally recommend the Bulgogi Cupbap + Fried Egg, this combo is BOMB read more
