Did a search and didn't find anything recent. Everything I have heard from friends and co-workers has been limited. Been open a few months, how's it doing?

Went after the LSU game and it wasn't terrible. That's a different crowd than what's normal, I would imagine

Went once around 6:30 on a Friday. Not exactly the kind of crowd I want to be around. They even had four cops in duty.
Have heard stories of fights and night on more than one occasion.

I probably will just go to Barcadia if someone I'm with wants to go play games

Get a PS4 and a case of Bud Lite so you can stay home and avoid the trash

When's the metal detector going in...?

Soon as I heard they were putting one in, I knew that's the crowd it would attract...

Spent several hours there on Saturday before the game. Had a good time. There was a big crowd in there, but we at seats at the bar. Our bartender took good care of us. Food took a while, but it was completely understood given the amount of people in there. They couldn't keep up with cooling the beer though. I'm not sure I'd ever need to go besides the fact that it was gameday and hot outside.

It's sad that everyone is just okay with this. We have several D and B locations as well as main event and pin stack which are similar. Not a problem with the riff raff anywhere. Y'all just let them take over places I guess.

I was blown away how damn expensive it is when I went.

It's more expensive compared to other locations in Texas. Obviously that hasn't deterred the rift raft.

It's not bad. Pretty small compared to other D&B's so the games/activities are limited.

Bring all of your kids and sit at the bar all night. Free baby sitting let others worry about your kids. Don't give any of your kids food/drink or money for games. Encourage your kids to sit in front of games and not move until someone swipes their card so they can play.

But for real I went once and that was enough for me. It's kind of sad it could have been a great place.

Side note the chunky cheese in Algiers is now parties only. Kids can only get in if they are on a list and get wrist bands. They had to this because the ratio of unaccompanied kids with no money to kids with an adult and spending money was about 5 to 1.
