I’ve been coming to this bar for years, as an Overland Park native. Even after my partner moved away from St. Joe, this bar is a staple. Enough cannot be said about Bridget and Curtis. These two are living saints. I’ve lived in the KC metro my entire life and never once have I encountered a bar quite like this. The vibe is reminiscent of going to your best friend’s house in the early 2000s to play games in the basement; mom has snacks. Really, it’s something special. There is a place here for everyone. Even if you don’t drink, or will never drink, you have a home here. This bar is THE best part of St. Joseph.

New to this bar and I absolutely love it. The atmosphere, the cool cocktail menu and the bartender was very nice. Definitely a whole new vibe from the arcade bar where I'm from.

This place is amazing! Since my first visit, CG has been my go to hangout spot. Bridget and Curtis are super awesome people, very friendly, they come up with their own original cocktails and merchandise, there's vintage gaming systems for that sweet taste of nostalgia, and the atmosphere is so welcoming and inclusive. Hands down, best bar in Saint Joe, in my opinion. Plus, they have a large and varied beer selection. Yikes!

Great atmosphere, fun games, and a great selection of drinks and beer! The owners/bartenders are very kind and overall its a good place to hang out. Plenty of different retro consoles to choose from with a large list of games, plus a Switch for newer games.

This is a really fun place with friends. A HUGE selection of interesting beers, a fun selection of cocktails, and a great selection of retro games and board games.I only knock off a star because a place that promotes itself as a videogame bar should do a little housekeeping on the retro consoles. My party was mainly excited for the N64 party games but the controllers, particularly the joysticks, were in pretty bad shape. The N64s also looked absolutely terrible on the HD TVs. I think an upscaler would help the old systems look better.A few in the party also received beers that expired two years ago. Yikes, but the bartender cleared it from our tab. This could be a fault of the supplier or anyone not involved with the bar so I won't dock it. Just a heads up.
Always such a fun place to hang. Although alot of the games are already taken before I get there because it's a popular place, lol, I still love to go for the atmosphere and the reasonably priced delicious cocktails!

I've been coming to the Club Geek at least once a month, and sometimes even more Kurtis and Bridgette have only treated me with respect when I come out here and even treated me like anyone else with my $20 of SSI money spending money that month, and I could only buy a cola or two. I won't type this and say that they we are: "Omg besties!" The reality is this: I was their patron, and they served me efficiently, and kept me coming back when I had the money to do so the next month with professional but still efficient charisma.Now, I make my own income and I come here and spend my money. They took me in, let me drink my cola, and didn't let me wallow in the desert of madness that caused me to only buy 2 drinks in the first place.They do good, honest, efficient work, and make you feel welcome. You may be in the desert like I was, but you can come here, and they will try to offer you some respite. And just realize, if you can, you are loved more then you know, and if I could take the cross so you could live the life you wanted, I would.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free alcohol is available.

We had a great time going for my sons birthday..it’s so laid back and we enjoyed playing old video games we hadn’t seen in years and all the board games were great too!! 10/10 recommend..we will definitely be back soon!!

Owners are fantastic, drinks are great and you can play video games or board games too. Quaint on the outside and party on the inside. The Ectoplasim is my favorite!
