This bar runs a scam with the lot next door. Patrons think they're parking in the Revelry lot, but actually it's the adjacent lot. The parking signs say "customers only", so anyone would assume it's Revelry's lot.Then they boot you for $75 and the Revelry owners take kickbacks. They should be in jail.(I noticed that the owner responded to my review below. There were absolutely no "signs that say cars will be booted if they park there", when I, and many many others got booted.There was no way for any of us to know that the lot wasn't associated with Revery, and I believe that was 100% intentional. I recommend that everyone stay away from this establishment)
I recently went to VR to experience the hype. I honestly had a good time until I asked a guy named Billy to make me a drink. He rudely told me that the drink was out with a attitude. I asked him to make me another drink since the other drink was out. He made it but off of one drink which was a tequila sunrise had me uncontrollably messed up to the point where it felt like he mixed my drink with brown and white or laced me. I should not have felt this way off one drink. However, the security was very respectful and made sure I made it to my car. I feel like if it was not for them I would be in a car wreck, deadly harm to myself or others and in jail right now. Besides that I would go back to see because the security made me feel safe and the music selection was decent.
Friday and Saturday are the best! The crowd is so diverse. Underground feel where everyone actually dances and mingles. No cover!
What is the purpose of patting people down before entering the establishment, if you let people who are carrying in. The purpose of the pat down is to make sure you don’t have any weapons……. I had to leave early because someone in my party saw multiple people with guns. On top of that, there was one time the workers forgot about us because they didn’t get our number so we wasted about an hour of time with no extra play time or compensation. Get to the booth and only a few of the games were working. So in a nutshell it’s an alright place. Not very big to be having a live dj and what not but it’s cool. The security is a joke so keep your head on a swivel and eyes open since you are in midtown as well. Drinks are about $10 and no entrance fee.
Never got a chance to experience this establishment. Here’s the reason:On 04/28/2022 at approximately 11:50pm. After reviewing the website I found that I can call and make reservations. I was excited to call and make reservations for my girlfriend and I for the following Saturday. When I called, a girl answered and I instantly gave her my name and told her what I wanted to do. She simply said “they do not have reservations only walk ins” and then abruptly hung up, I wanted to obtain more information from her, but she didn't give me a chance, and I found that very rude and disrespectful from a place of business. My first impression and interaction made me change my date night ideas. Really wanted to check this spot out but I’ll find another VR bar in Atlanta.
Strange vibe. Bad DJ. He kept jumping eras and none of the crossfades blended. It’s like he was too young to distinguish between early 90s and early 2000s music, and he also kept playing what he wanted to hear. Lots of technical issues with the equipment, which tripled my wait time. The VR rooms are open so you can see when people are having issues and waiting for staff support.Pluses: good air circulation, good amount of seating if you want it (though we didn’t sit). Very inventive cocktail menu that’s on tap and reasonably priced for ATL.Might try it again right when they open.
Not as cool and as hip as we thought it would be. We arrived and were told there was an hour wait. We actually totally understood this and went to the bar to grab drinks and hang out. We were so early the dj wasn't there yet but they were playing cool chill lounge music. One of the bartenders was rude and one was really nice. The rude one didn't want to explain any of their specialty drinks to us when I asked what was in one of them. The nice one totally gave us a great recommendation from their menu. They have special cocktails that I'm assuming might change up every now and then? And those are featured on a board hanging behind the bar, but it was hard to read which is why we wanted to ask for a bit more info. Drinks were HELLA pricey, like $11 each.As for the gaming -- we didn't get to play (we left early and went to a different bar instead) but we did walk around and watch others for a bit. The game rooms are completely open, so you can see right into any groups session. Take that as you will. The games are pretty basic: we saw a boxing style one, what looked like a zombie game, and fruit ninja. They're all AA games so probably a couple of actions to do but nothing intensive and basic graphics. I was kind of hoping the game selection would include a few Triple A titles too in the mix with the way the prices are set up for these rooms lol.Basically, imagine if you took the VR gaming demo spot from a Best Buy and moved it to a small club with led lights inside. That would be Revery!
Fun games and awesome drinks. My husband and I spent an hour here for a date night and would highly recommend. We were taken to our cubicle on time and did not have any issues with the VR system. The staff came to check on us periodically to make sure we were ok and also gave us tips on how to play the games if they saw us struggling.
Really like the idea of this place. My husband and I have come a few times and it seems to be getting better but we always experience technical issues with the equipment which results in wasting the time that we’ve paid to play. I’m optimistic that the controls become more advanced and that the process becomes more seamless with time.
If you are into virtual reality games then this is a pretty cool place. You have your sections blocked off where you are able to play serveral different VR games. The drinks are pretty good bit they could do better with serving a full menu. I guess since it's a gaming place they only sell like appetizers. After a certain time it does become more of a club scene but they do let you know that on the website.
