Wonderbar Athens

Drinks were fine. I guess reasonably priced. But to go to an arcade bar for them to only have arcade one up machines is a bit of a let down honestly. The space is small, not many games. Overall just a weird vibe compared to other arcade bars I've been to

So much fun. I'm very electric and entertaining environment. Amazing customer service and friendly staff. Highly recommend! The snack food is amazing you can get boiled peanuts!

Love the selection of games. Watched a lady beat the breaks off some guys in MarioKart. Got kicked around in MK11. Overall great and humbling experience.

Cool vibe, weak drinks: Really chill place to hang out, lots of games to choose from, even if you brought your own I dont think its a big deal, staff is always friendly and its clean. And its fun to game with strangers who pop in. Big downside is their drinks are very weak! I am an infamous light weight to those who know me, I had 3 cocktails in about 1.5hrs and felt basically nothing. Normally I shouldn't be able to walk straight after that many drinks. And no it didn't hit me later on. Ive tried to get

A men?s room with no closing door is pathetic

Great place for a gal who games (???) Surely no ones purely toting rod, impossible task

Alright Athens peeps, listen up! You know I love a good dive bar, but sometimes you want something a little different, a place with a pulse. That's where Wonderbar comes in. This spot isn't your standard Athens watering hole. Sure, it's got the classic college bar vibes ? exposed brick, chill atmosphere ? but Wonderbar throws in a unique twist: games! We're talking a whole room full of arcade classics, mario kart, and even some board games for those retro feels. It's the perfect place to unwind after a lo

You can tell why this is the highest rated bar in Athens. Fun games and incredible staff. Friendly and wholesome vibes

The games are the first thing you notice, but the plethora of cocktails, snacks, and shots are what draws your eye next. As you ponder what to partake, a bartender warmly greets you. Treating your taste buds to a combination of delights is easy to do in this establishment. The space is inviting and the artwork clearly demonstrates the personal touches that come from a small business. If you're lucky enough to interact with the locals who frequent, you get the sense that the bar is not only a spot to rest an

Without a doubt, the best bar I've ever been to in my life. Great service. Great people. Great drinks. Heck, even great food. Games are free. Smash tournaments, Rock Paper Scissors tournaments, even a connect 4 championship. Whether you're visiting, a native, or a college student, if you've never been to Wonderbar, you're missing out on the Athens experience.

My favorite bar in downtown! Not only do they have a ton of games (including Mario Kart- my favorite), they have creative shots and cocktails. The pink starburst shot is the best shot! If you're looking for something fun, get the Capri Sun with rum in it!

A decadent treat in the midst of chaos. An innocent blast; EVERY TIME I've been! And the times when I have went in there and haven't even ordered a drink and there's no pressure they're cool with you just playing video games hanging out drinking soda pop.

Nice place to have fun with friends. They have a variety of board and card games, classic arcades and the only place in town where you can play Nintendo 64 with your friends. Music is always good. They lack specials. Their drinks are not expensive, but there are not many options if you're trying to drink cheap. Good shots though.

This is hands down my favorite bar! The staff are all super friendly. They have 2 video game consoles, 2 comfy leather sofas, and plenty of other arcade and board games. And they have so many great drinks!

Great drinks and lots of game options. Arcade, video, card, and board games. There's something for everyone! The bartenders were friendly and the atmosphere was fun.

Very sweet bartender. I believe her name was Sherry (my bad if I messed her name up). Would definitely come back

This place was great. The shots are exactly as described. You get a flavored shot, and it tastes exactly like the name. Neat to watch the projected games of Mario kart and super smash. Also they and a small outdoor area and some small snacks. Boiled peanuts

This place is always a favorite of mine. I don't know if it has to do with the amazing staff, or great drink specials, but I am here several nights of the week, without hesitation! Their throwback games and relevant music is an added bonus! Garrett is always an amazing bartender, bringing personality and professionalism to the plate. Peyton is an amazing business man who only thinks about his guests? needs and comfortablity. Overall, if you're looking for a place to bring out of town guests, or you're

Talk about a blast from the past! If you want to feel like a kid again, GO HERE. It's simple but complex in the best way possible. Simple meaning good drink choices but not an overwhelming amount. It's low key and not bombarded by college kids. Complex meaning I was constantly pleasantly surprised. Their food menu was awesome - lunchables, noodle bowls, cheese nachos, candy. Their drink concoctions were hilariously awesome - a Capri sun bomb and sour patch shots. I've never been to a bar offering those opti

This bar is awesome! The staff and bartenders were extremely friendly and inviting, not to mention they made some of the best drinks I've ever had. Plus the all around environment of the bar keeps me coming back, and who doesn't love to play games while drinking? I recommend this bar to everyone!

Very neat place. Quaint, visually stimulating. Friendly, informative, patient and professional staff. A super original establishment you don't want to miss as you're strolling downtown Athens. Thank you.

Super amazing bar. The bartenders are amazing. Would not give me a shot after a while until I started to drink water. Which is so freakin sweet and wise. All games are FREE to play and I am so glad my sister and I have a nostalgic place we can get a few drinks and play games as if we are still at our neighbors house playing smash/pacman. I have loved here a few months but I do not drink alcohol so it was difficult to get me here but I had so much fun. Thanks wonderbar for an amazing night with my sister!

We were kid free this week and decided to head out to Athens. This was by far the most fun bar we have been too in a while. It was a nice change of pace to drink some drinks and actually do something (play jenga, connect four, video games). We were impressed with the pricing as well. We will definitely visit again on out next trip to town!

Nerd. friggin. heaven. There's classic video games, booze and very cute bartenders. What more can you ask for? Go play Mario Kart on the projectors. Talk to the people and meet new friends because the people who go here are friendly. Recommended for your barhopping adventures.

Simply stated, whether you enjoy video games or not, this video game bar serves the best drinks in town, hands down. The staff are incredibly warm and talented.

Best bar in Athens, great game great people, amazing vibe. Best bar tenders Karly: award for best conversations James: always upbeat about everything Cortney: always smiling, nice to everyone Andrew: looks like Ian Ian: looks like Andrew, I think they are related or something. Payton: always act like he owns the place.

Wonderbar is my go to bar. I work downtown, and i stop by here every night on the way home from work. The staff is absolutely wonderful, the drinks are great, they have specials several times a week and the people tend to be more friendly than other bars, common grounds for conversation and whatnot being apparent. Stay nerdy!

This is my favorite bar in Athens. You get a mix of the best locals, college, and out of town people. Cool drinks, great staff, and free video games are where it's at. The dj on saturday night kills it too ! ??

I first got a chance to check this place out on Halloween with some friends. The staff there seemed to handle to massive influx of customers pretty well. They had a few arcade machines I could play for 25 cents a pop to include pac man, mortal combat and galaga. They had an N64 and a gamecube rigged up to projectors so we could play mario cart and goledneye multiplayer and the like. It's one of the few places I've gone in Athens where the music doesn't get on my tits. The only drawback is that the place is

I am very thankful to the waiter and to the owner of this place for returning me the wallet I lost. The owner of the bar even shipped it to me to the different city. So grateful to everyone from this place! Plus the atmosphere and drinks here are excellent, so excellent that easy to forget the wallet :-) many thanks for great time and help!

Just awesome! The games take me back to being a kid. The prices are incredible, even on scotch. And kaycie was the best bartender you could ask for. Give her a BONUS!

Such a fun little joint to hang out, friendly bartenders they serve great little snack foods and you can play video games for free! Saturday night the DJ Is always spinning good tracks

One of my favorite bars. Nice staff, cool atmosphere, bathrooms are generally clean, funky snack choices and big screen video games.

A few broken arcade machines. The themed drinks were meh... atmosphere was similar to that of your typical bar crowd and didn't really push the gamer scene other than the games laying around.

The staff here is amazing and super kind! I would recommend this bar to anyone who loves good drinks and fun games. 10/10

Great atmosphere but very tight location. The space between the bar and walkway is nonexistent so you are always being jostled while trying to drink. Great staff and fairy priced drinks.

Super cool place with a nerdy theme. Lots of video games and board games to play, instant favorites when it comes to the video game-themed drink menu. Friendly staff and an all around fun place.

Nice bar for video gamers! Has a pretty nice selection of modern and classic video games for people to play. The bar is pretty decent as well. Drinking and Gaming FTW!

Just moved into town a week ago and iv found myself at this spot almost every night. Great staff,decent selection of drinks ,the games are amazing cant beat drunk nitendo games with friends deffinitly check it out if your in town or just havnt given it a chance yet??wont regret it

Ginger bearded bartender is the worst. Took my order then took 5 other peoples orders (his friends?) started talk shots with them and hen I got my beer 10 minutes later. Screw that loser. Doesn't know the first thing about service.

Wonderbar always has the best drinks and enough games to make your head spin. The staff is incredibly friendly and I always find myself singing along to the music.

I absolutely love this bar. They have a great selection of mixed drinks and the staff and atmosphere are fantastic. There is nothing else like it in Athens

This place is a bar for nerds. Not in a "how are you doing fellow kids" kid of way though. It's super chill and the games are great.

Awesome atmosphere, fun games, and a well-trained staff. Athens has a ton of bars, but there's nothing else like wonderbar.

One of my favorite places in Athens. I have lived here for 8 years and this place creates a comfortable environment for every one. Just be ready to get your game on

Great staff and fun games. A bar that feels more comfortable than most, with friendly crowds more often than not.

Pretty cool place. Tons of video games. Great drinks. Surprisingly good food. Favorite bar in Athens.

Love the atmosphere and the drinks! The people who work there are also really chill. I go here every time I go out!

Too crowded, always get shoulder-checked by drunk kids. Also the bartender gave my friend a mat shot and said it was from a friend instead of telling him the truth. The barback told us later and really pissed us off.

Maggie is the best and the idea of a video game bar is awesome. Love the place, great crowd too.

the one and only bar I love in Athens because they have video games and they have very good drinks and the drinks are normally cutely named so I Love this bar

Mrs. Pac-Man, Connect 4, MarioKart 64. This place has games and drinks for all. Loved the "CapriFUN Bomb"!

It was the go to bar to go and place games but after I watched the staff fix a drink with a dirty glass from another customer the venue just left me sick. Please schedule a covid test if you visit here.

I had a real good time when I visited this place the bartender and bar staff were very friendly there were games and music that were quite interesting for a bar atmosphere I will return in the future

The drinks are poured right and the games are fun. My favorite bar in town for sure.

My personal "hangout" spot. I'm getting a bit older, so I don't really stay too late, but the owner and his crew are always friendly and fast. Cheers.

This place is awesome they had free arcade games and a Foosball table. We had a blast.

Amazing drinks and amazing atmosphere! Had a lot of choices for games!

Neat game themed drinks, a few arcade games, and two n64s set up for people to play Mario cart

This place offers no promise except for one one, if youre willing to roll the dice, they are are willing to make it worth your while! Otherwise stay safe!!

Decent bar given the options in the area. Wasn't blown away but better then bars I had a chance to check out .

Very nice bartenders! Lots of fun getting drunk and playing video games!

Cool hang out spot with games, decent drinks, and never super packed. The Video games seem to get repetitive.

Good people, good place. Fun barcade experience. 5/7 recommend to all my friends.

The Halloween decoration was on point. Love the ambience. Drinks were solid

Great bar in Athens if you are looking for a lively place to chill, chat, and play video games.

probably my favorite bar in Athens! always fun, great people, good drinks, good music.

Great atmosphere! The only downside is it needs more space for more games.

Best bar! Has retro games and an amazing staff

Great beer selection, fun bartenders, and great games to play.

Love the gaming atmosphere, fun drinks, and tasty snacks!

So much fun! Great drinks and fun games! free fun games!

Really tightly packed, definitely over covid limits and noone was wearing masks behind the bar

I love this bar! So chill and tons of different games

We had such a good time in this place. Totally differenf from all other bars in the area.

Love it, all the games, drinks, bar tenders, environment....laid back!

It is an all around awesome place, if you haven't been you need to go.

It's a great environment with the best bar staff in Athens!

This place is awesome! Played fifa 17 and foosball all night.

Fun bar to play video games or board games while drinking a beer.

Got some weird townies here who acted completely inappropriately to other patrons. Maybe that's just my experience, but hey.

Video games on the big screen, good drink prices in a cozy space.
