The layout is a bit of a puzzle-if you're in the front half, the stage is essentially behind a wall. On the plus side, the service was solid and the KJ was incredibly friendly! However, between the general lack of cleanliness and the same four people cycling in and out the front door every five minutes, it's a bit of an odd vibe. On a Saturday night it was empty. I would suggest stopping by for a quick drink and some people-watching, but I'd definitely skip the kitchen. I was shocked when I saw they offered so many options of food on a screen at the bar. This is not a place I would eat. There are better spots nearby unless you're strictly looking for a "quick and dirty" drink.

I actually had to give up my second song to my husband because after 2.5 hours of multiple people singing multiple times he still wasn't up as a new singer. The KJ even ADMITTED to him that he was sorry for forgetting to put him in and then LIED to what I'm assuming was the manager about how he spoke to not only me, but my husband as well. As former KJ's ourselves, we will never give this established another penny of our money after the treatment we received by the KJ.

I had a negative experience with the karaoke staff at Underbar. I signed up to sing before three of…read moremy friends, but they and many others were allowed to sing ahead of me. When I asked about the order, the male KJ was dismissive, and the female KJ repeatedly stated that I was lying about signing up earlier. Two friends confirmed to her that I had not been lying, but she continued to insist otherwise. I spoke with the owner to explain the situation. Later, after leaving Underbar and going to Tip Top, the same KJ arrived there. I approached her to express that I did not appreciate being called a liar. She then represented the interaction as if I had been harassing her, which was not accurate, as I had arrived at Tip Top before she did. Overall, the situation was handled unprofessionally by the karaoke staff, and the interaction was unnecessarily confrontational.

Everyone had a great time. They have entertainment. Including karaoke which we did. I'm told they have music, comedians, drag shows, and much more! I will definitely be returning to this place for some more fun. Check it out.

We were the very last group of the night, and getting them to sing Mr Bright side with us was the cherry on top. Would love to come back next time I'm in town!

Food was decent. It was classic bar food. I really liked that they had water accessible inside the rooms. The rooms were also nice and chilly as you get hot in there pretty fast if you're up and about and singing. You can also control the lighting of the room and volume of the music all from your phone! It's pretty cool. I wish their song list was a bit more expansive. Also, a lot of the karaoke versions of the songs they have are shitty covers from youtube. I wanted to sing "Baby Got Back" and the cover they had was laughable.. But i still had a great time!

Food is much better than you'd expect from a place like this - order the pretzel and get extra cheese! The drinks are on point as well. All in all our group of 8 had a blast and we will definitely be back!

This place fell off hard…read more It used to be welcoming, fun, and packed with good energy. Since the new owner took over, the vibe has completely tanked. The atmosphere feels tense, people are getting kicked out for no clear reason, and it's uncomfortable just being there. The leadership shows. Rude, unwelcoming, and clearly out of touch with the crowd that built this bar in the first place. Yes, it's technically a country bar -- and that was fine. What made it work was the balance. They used to blend in other genres, which kept the dance floor full and the crowd diverse. Now it's country-only, all night, no variation. There's nothing wrong with country, but stripping away the mix that made it successful feels like a lazy, tone-deaf decision driving away a lot of customers. Security, bartenders, and DJs are still great -- they're not the problem. Ownership is. I won't be back. And judging by how empty it's getting, I won't be the only one.

I wasn't planning on finding a new favorite place that day. My son and I had one mission: swing by…read moreGameStop, grab a couple of games, and head home before I somehow got talked into buying another controller we definitely didn't need. We took a different exit through Vancouver Mall, and that's when I spotted a sign that read, "Ice Cream - $1 a scoop." Well... now we're negotiating. One scoop turned into wandering into Round1, and I swear I felt like I accidentally walked into an arcade the size of a small airport. If you're into claw machines, congratulations you've found your homeland. I think they had enough of them to keep a thousand stuffed animals unemployed. Everywhere I looked there were lights flashing, people laughing, prizes dangling just out of reach, and enough games to make my son forget I existed for a while. Then I saw it. The bowling alley. I lit up like a kid who just found out recess got extended. I love bowling, and usually a bowling night means my wallet leaves with a limp. By the time you pay for bowling, shoes, food, drinks, and whatever else mysteriously ends up on the bill, you're wondering if you accidentally financed the lanes. Round1 was different. It's affordable, it's convenient, and it's sitting right inside the mall. That's a dangerous combination... mostly for my free time. The whole place was spotless. The staff was friendly, everything looked modern, and the lighting and giant screens gave it that fun, energetic vibe without feeling over the top. It's not the biggest bowling alley you'll ever see, but honestly, who cares? It's close, it's clean, there's great food just steps away, and after you're done bowling you can lose to your kid in a racing game before watching him dominate a claw machine you swear is rigged. I lived in Vancouver for a while years ago, and now that I'm back, I'm constantly surprised by all the new places popping up. This was one of those surprises that made me smile. I'm not even a huge arcade guy by myself, but with my son? It turned an ordinary shopping trip into one of those afternoons you remember long after the games are over. Some people rate places by comparing them to the biggest and fanciest entertainment centers. I rate them by one simple question: Did I leave happier than when I walked in? The answer here is an easy yes. Round1 isn't just an arcade. It's one of those places where a quick stop somehow turns into, "Wait... we've been here three hours?" Five stars from me. Just don't blame me when you tell your kids you're "just stopping by for a minute" and suddenly you're carrying a giant stuffed banana, holding bowling shoes, and wondering where the afternoon went.

This was our first experience with a Round1 and there's definitely some great things, along with…read moresome not-so-great things. Let's start off with the claw machines, we had a blast (for the most part). The large and medium claws we found we could win before it was time for payout. The mini claws, were just as expensive as the other claw machines, and way harder to win from. As for the arcade section, it was very lackluster. The games were pricey, some didn't work, while others were missing balls or beanbags. It was hard to accumulate enough tickets to get anything substantial from the prize area. The staff we encountered had mixed attitudes. Some were very nice and helpful with resetting the claw machines, while others seemed putout, that they hated working there, and were quite surly. Overall we enjoyed ourselves in the claw area, and would come back just to experience that.
