Reviews of District Beta (Night Club)

Adam Armstrong

The VR aspect of this place is awesome! $34 for an hour isn't terrible. I ended up buying myself VR after I played it as I was amazed by the experience. Definitely worth the money (I bought oculus). The retro gaming part is definitely still in the works. Old school box TVs (not sure if that's for the retro feel) but the game selection is pretty limited. I was hoping for more of a selection. Hopefully over time it grows. $5 an hour or $10 unlimited isn't bad. (Is free when you rent a VR booth. I would go back.

First time with VR. Friendly, patient, and informative staff. Great experience!

Samantha Roughley

Such a great time here ! The VR experience was good but my favourite part was the whole oldschool set up of so many various old gaming consoles along with a bar. It is a great time for people looking to get out and have a blast from the past.

Matt Day

Good games needs more beer selection!

Kaiceps

Wonderful barcade and great owner!

Matthew Normand

Fun place with all kinds of games, from almost any console to some fun arcade cabinets. Definitely going to go back! The virtual reality is a trip

J1rad Master

My girlfriend and I just went here and had a blast! It was a ton of fun and everyone there was nice and friendly! There were a lot of games, it was a good ammount of time for the price! We can't wait to go back!

Daniel Chiantera

Perfect place to hangout with family or friends, beer, snacks and bowling!

Steve

A ton of fun with a group of friends. Though I think they should get a different mechanism for holding the oculus wires above your head. It gets tangled easily and doesn’t allow too much movement, especially when crouching. Also think it should be a bit lower cost, probably around $25-28 per hour like ones in London Ontario. Otherwise, the staff is awesome and love helping everyone out and set up. --- EDIT --- Updating my review. I think the place needs a makeover (this seems to be mostly the locations fault). The building it's housed in is just completely run down, the parking lot is full of massive pot holes, the inside is poorly constructed with visible minimal effort put into mostly everything.

Staff was great! Good atmosphere as well. Perfect experience and the UI in the VR was very intuitive, easy to pick up but HARD to put down ;) Can’t wait to come again!

Good

Really awesome and knowledgeable staff, fun environment, games are well maintained and in excellent condition. They help walk you through the VR process in an understandable way and it's a LOT of fun! TIP: DEFINITELY RSVP

Kyle Morden

This place has the friendliest staff. Excellent service and truly a hidden gem in Sarnia. Kids loved the VR and all the retro games.

Vic Laranja

Highest quality entertainment in Sarnia! Whether it's playing futuristic VR games to retro console games or just having a few drinks with your friends, District Beta is the place to do it. It's also located in the entertainment plaza, so other unique experiences are right next door if you're looking for even more when you're done. Great for the kids, the family or even a night out with the crew. 5/5

Joel Sheffield

They have excellent customer service, fair pricing, and a great selection of games.

Andrew

10/10 fantastic experience every time I've went. Staff is nice, beer is cold, games are fun.

Aaron “Von Qwoppo” Bell

Staff is overall very friendly. Quite the large selection of VR, Playstation, Xbox, etc games. Reminds me a lot of CTRL-V in Guelph! Wife and Myself each had a booth for a hour and ended up having technical issues with a few of the VR games we tried, but otherwise had a lot of fun! ????

Victor Laranja

Best variety of arcade, table and virtual reality games in the entire region. Fully licensed bar, great lights and music setting and awesome atmosphere. Kids and adult friendly environment.

The Yardifactdiggers

Its a fun place to play the retro arcade games!

Lynnette Arnold

We went for a video game tournament. It's a great space. Plus if you go early, you can use the arcade machines, retro game consoles, or one of the VR booths! Not to mention grabbing a drink!

Rewind Cat

Really good time! Super nice and helpful staff. Been there about 5 times now and we’ll definitely be going back! Of all the VR places this has to be my fav because of the old school games and consoles.

Christian Montalban

Amazing place to go and hangout. Staff is great. Owner is a really nice and caring guy. This place has an old arcade feel with a modern take on it. Great place for families, hanging out with friends and just something to do. Love it.

Very well setup environment, unbelievably fun!

Christie Harris

I have brought my kids (age 5 and 7) multiple times and they always have a blast! There are a good variety of games to accommodate all ages! The set up is is clean and simple. There are comfy couches for those who are waiting. Reasonably priced small snacks (ie: chips, cheesies) and drinks available for purchase. We look forward to many future visits, especially when the new expanded "barcade" opens later this month!

Astrid Raynor

Went to this place yesterday. I love how you can use loonies for everything so you are not stuck with tokens when you leave. Customer service was fabulous. Lots of old school games. We had a great time.

Hidden Gem in sarnia! Great for all ages!

Manda Johnson

Came there tonight with my son and his friend for a birthday present. They played the VR and loved every minute of it. Honestly, I am most impressed by the attentive service we received. He (sorry didn't catch a name) was always checking in making sure the boys knew what they were doing and even when we first walked in were acknowledged and greeted with such a friendly manner. Thank you for a fun night. My son is already offering to do numerous chores to come back next week for an hour!

Bailey O

Excellent ! Very comfortable, welcoming, affordable. All areas were cleanly. The staff was so down to earth truly are wonderfully invested in their business. Which says leaps and bounds for today's entrepreneurs. The atmosphere is decorated with fan art to appreciate , just as unique and notable as the awesome 'tube' TVs to play super Mario/guitar hero on - you name it. Not to mention multiple classic arcade games-buck hunter, basketball ect. They have food options -nachos were AMAZING. As if we werent already impressed enough, i walked out to the parking lot and there was incredible live band (Good fellas) playing in the parking lot (hosted by the bowling lanes). Check out this young hang out& small business. Will be back. Couldn't have asked for anything more .
