Frequently asked questions

You're welcome to bring your own food and drinks. However, we request that you avoid bringing food with strong odours into private rooms. If you intend to bring alcohol, there is a compulsory S$3.8/pax charge for free-flow drinks, applicable to everyone in your group, regardless of whether they drink or not.

If your group consists of 4 people or fewer, you can make separate bookings for different activities at different times. For groups larger than 4 people, please send us a message via WhatsApp, and we will assist with your booking.

All of our console games and mahjong are hosted in private rooms. For board games, we have two private rooms available. One room requires a minimum of 6 people, while the other requires a minimum of 10 people to book.

Smoking is strictly prohibited in all areas. If caught, a S$500 deposit will be levied and you'll be warned not to smoke. Repeat offenders will forfeit the deposit and be asked to leave.

Although our café is open 24/7, visits after 11 pm require self-service entry with QR code payment. As we are unstaffed during these hours, please follow the on-site instructions for late-night access. Entry after 11 pm is strictly limited to guests who complete the QR code payment.
