Had such a fun night here! Huge shoutout to the lovely staff at the bar—my friend accidentally ordered me a drink I really didn’t like (oops), and I felt so bad asking if I could switch it. But the bartender was super generous and understanding, and kindly gave me a sweet tea instead! I was so grateful,it honestly made my day. The staff’s kindness really stood out. Also loved seeing all the cool vintage comics around the place. My friends and I had a great time, and we’re definitely coming back to hang out again!

We love finding eclectic spots that offer food, drinks, and some fun games. Since we had a day planned to check out various spots around Atlanta, we decided to order a few things to sample and share. The pretzel was crispy on the outside and soft and perfect on the inside. The tots were plentiful but could have used a little extra seasoning. Our son picked the shrimp and grits with pimento cheese, and he devoured it! He liked it so much that we ended up making a similar dish for Sunday dinner.

The bar area had a great selection of local beers, which was a nice touch. While the games were a bit pricier than we’ve seen at other places, everything worked well, and we had fun playing a few rounds. Overall, it’s a great spot to hang out for a few hours. I’d definitely recommend checking it out!

This place is a haven for those who love good beer, good food, and good times! Their beer selection is impressive, with something for every palate. The food is surprisingly delicious for a bar, and the staff is friendly and attentive. But what really sets this place apart is the incredible collection of arcade games and pinball machines. It's like stepping back in time to the golden age of gaming, but with better beer. Oh, and did I mention the comics? They have walls lined with them! Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun night out with friends, this place is definitely worth checking out.

They have added more pinball machines, some games are free...more open room between tables and now you order at a counter (but your food is brought to you) and wait staff still checks on customers at the tables. Large selection of comic books...some collectibles and 2 for $1 with some freebies. The environment is good for families with kids..there are good kids meals. Fun place that is even better than the last time I brought a group there!

Went here for an easy dinner and beers while playing some games. Great pinball machines. Well maintained and great selection. They have a few other games like battle pac man and Tekken. Not a huge crowd so we were able to play a lot. Easy to pay as they take quarters and dollars and you can scan.

Great draft beer selection. Bar or patio seating. Friendly service. Simple but tasty food. I had a pimento grilled cheese with tomatoes and bacon with the seasonal veggies ..braised cabbage.

Everything was great and I would go back for a casual night out and dinner.

Such an awesome hangout spot with great beer and even better food! From the pinball machines to the comics & graphic novels to the random memorabilia all over the place, My Parents' Basement is such a rad place!

The ambiance of this bar is certainly unique!

This place is like the lovechild of a pinball arcade, comic book shop, and bar/eatery. The food and drinks were very satisfying and in my opinion, reasonably priced.

The staff AND patrons were all super pleasant and friendly!

I really enjoyed my visit here and would highly recommend coming in if my description piques your curiosity!

Basically a pub + arcade + comic book store all wrapped together in one place; easily my most-visited local joint, because they always have great beer on tap and plenty of great vegan dishes to choose from
