Reviews of Akēdo Gaming Bar Lincoln
C. D.
Amazing place. I found it by accident stumbling around Lincoln. Spent 3 hours here on a first date. My date even gamed having no prior interest. They serve booze and great atmosphere and best of all it’s all free ( not the booze though that would be inappropriate)
J. C.
Really nice atmosphere!

Really nice gaming bar, friendly staff, reasonable prices
S. K.
A great little bar and then 2 rooms for gaming and live music downstairs.

Visited on a quiet afternoon to play on Mario Kart for the Switch. Fair range of beverages alcoholic and non. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere, definitely one for the gamers! Only reason for 4/5 rather than 5 was the price, whilst I understand the difficulty to keep the niche bar afloat, you simply couldn't afford to drop in and spend a long time here regularly.

Best bar EVER, gaming, amazing beers, heaven. Don't want to leave

First time coming here and it was an amazing experience! The owners were very friendly and helpful, followed social distancing protocols and answered questions I had. They had a range of games and good alcohol drinks selection. If you love playing games I definitely would recommend coming here with your friends :))
R. P.
Loads of consoles and loads of games, great chilled atmosphere and wide variety of drinks with Tiny Rebel specials rotating through. Perfect
M. S.
My favourite haunt in this city. There's no other spot in Lincoln where you can show up solo and make a ton of new friends. Fantastic vibes, a great selection of drinks and if you're into video games, you'll always feel welcome.
Five stars isn't enough.
C. D.
A great spot for a drink or a quick round of Mario kart. Plenty of screens and consoles and a fair selection of beers and spirits. Make time to have a chat with the friendly staff and if you've got the skills, challenge the boss to a round of your fighting game if choice. Always a pleasure.

Amazing atmosphere, probably one of my favourite bars in the country

First visit this evening. Loved it! Great set up, great atmosphere! The guy in charge was the perfect host for a gaming bar. Can't wait to go back again!

Great little bar with a mix of current and retro consoles and games. Sells a range of different beers and soft drinks. When I've visited the guy who runs it had been working and is always friendly and helpful. They have different offers on at different times and competitions, as well as live music. Definitely worth a visit.

Love the aesthetic, lovely owner with great prices too.
(Edit)
I went in today to play on the Oculus Quest and was instantly greeted with a very warm welcome, He was quick to serve me and get the headset up and running. He was pleasant throughout my entire time there and even when we had a few technical issues a equally enjoyable alternative was offered as we waited for the issue to be resolved. I had a brilliant time there. It is well worth the money and the time (not that it's even that expensive
in fact it hardly cost much at all ) I will be sure to go again. Regularly in fact.
S. C.
Lovely staff, wonderful experience. Bargain prices. Huge selection of games
L. L.
Great staff, and it definitely delivers on its name. If you want some drinks with friends followed by a competitive, or friendly gaming session I recommend this place. I've got to add going solo is great as well they have a wide variety of games to choose from
J. B.
Great place. Although a 'gaming bar' they also put on gigs, which is why I usually go, but it is a nice place to hang out and play some games too. The drinks selection is reasonable, just be aware that it's not a Wetherspoons.
J. B.
Best place in Lincoln for good games, good beers and good people!
j. h.
What a amazing place!, I don't know why it took me so long to enter a gaming bar! Honestly! Such a friendly and welcoming place! Fully recommend, such a great range of consoles, plenty of games to play! 100% coming back!

An excellent find for anyone looking for a fun night with friends. Great selection of games and consoles. Full of friendly people and always welcoming. The board games are also a lot of fun. Definitely a great place to hang out and have a few drinks
K. J.
Absolutely love this place. Toby is fantastic as a host and really knows his stuff. Willing to bend over backwards if there's something he can help you with. The selection on hand is really good and the VR setup is just great. Nice to see some classic arcade cabinets as well. For the price you pay, you really couldn't ask for more.
M. W.
Came here with a group one night and was pleasantly surprised. The owner gave us a tour of his lovingly gaming decorated bar and suprisingly large basement area. We rented a PS4 and played Worms (for me a first time in many years). Nice unique selection of beers and drinks with a great selection of different platforms to play on with friends. Definitely recommend to visit and relax with friends that like gaming.
R. A.
Great beers, friendly and inclusive atmosphere and a wide variety of games to play. Tournament nights are especially good for meeting new people, but even at quiet times you are guaranteed a good place to hang out, chat and try out the latest console and board games.
C. A.
Best bar in Lincoln, but due to personal taste, of course! Warning - if you're a gamer visiting or even living in Lincoln this may quickly turn into your favourite bar. VR and gaming sessions are cheap, and though they don't have a massive drink range pretty much everything they have fits into the theme. They don't have many consoles either, but it's a dedicated gaming bar and it shows. Just be warned - it can get busy here, and for good reason! Though it's small it's not unbearable. I love this place and would highly recommend.
A. T.
Love love loveeee. So much fun and there's plenty of room for several people. They even do kids parties. There were lots of devices there, so really couldn't fault the place!
The lady that served us was accommodating, helped us when we needed it and was very friendly.
G. M.
If I was to open a gaming bar this isn't the way I'd do it but I can see why it works and it is a great place to hang out especially in a university city. So far there isn't that much in there but it's new and I can see developments happening already. Personally I think the drinks are slightly overpriced (£3-3.50 for a 330ml budweiser if I recall correctly.)
Overall I love these types of places and I hope it thrives and becomes bigger and better.
C. W.
This place is amazing. Some fantastic drinks available with some very tasty ciders in there. Downstairs is full of retro and current video games. Possibly spent more time reliving childhood memory a than actually drinking. Very recommended.
J. W.
£10 to pay if you want to play games; a fair price considering you get free reign over classic systems such as N64s, classic titles like SSX, as well as modern titles such as FIFA 20, smash bros and mario kart. Was pleasantly surprised at the range of drinks on selection; my friend had a Messerschmitt and I a sour beer, as well as the usual affair of beers like Carling. Super friendly staff who gave us a small tour showing us all the systems before we played.
D. D.
Amazing place with all the games you can think of and super friendly bar staff
R. L.
You like games, drinks and music?
Akēdo has it all.
From retro games to the newest ones.
Wide variety of spirits and special ales.
S.
Amazing drinks. The staff are really casual and helpful, and the consoles all have great games and are in great condition. Just a casual place to go along and drink and play. Love it!!!
C. K.
Great service, friendly staff, a plethora of games and the best value for your money I’ve ever seen out of a gaming cafe. £5 = Unlimited time to play any video game they have. Awesome place!
I. S.
Fantastic bar. First time I've visited (not from lincoln). I was looking for a relaxed place that had a good selection of craft beers and stumbled across Akedo. Very friendly and chilled, as is the owner Toby. Highly rrecommended and great to see a different offering. Wishing you every success for the future.
I. M.
A great place for all levels of gamers especially younger as it's a safe fun environment. Downside not always open when it says it is, so call first. Great coffee and the owner is really helpful.
K. K.
Excellent service and lovely place. I heard about it before, but first time being there was impressive

One of the best places in Lincoln to kill a few hours. Beats wondering around the high street tagging along with the missus. Manager is such a good guy, very helpful and great selection of games and beer. Bring a mate. Spread the word
G. S.
Odd little place but I like it. Decent place for a chat and a gaming session over a drink. £5/person and you can pick from a large selection of games.
Will visit again.
D. B.

Great place... I visited whilst I was over in Lincoln it's a great lil bar super friendly staff... And a really wide choice of games to play loved it!
D. B.
Playing games online is alot of fun, but playing side by side with your closest friends or a random challenger in a community, is more rewarding, that face to face experience and bonds that are made through friendly rivalry are moments you never forget.
T. H.
Amazing concept gaming, dancing and socialising, so much fun every time
