This Detroit Restaurant Donated Its Food to Local Charity on Mothers Day - Eater Detroit

"Ready Player One, the Greektown basement arcade bar closed quietly sometime over the last few months, but a new tenant is set to take its place. Pizza Cat, a Toledo-based chain that promises to “keep pizza weird,” could open as soon as next month as Pizza Cat Max, the Detroit News reports. While the old-school arcade games Ready Player One was known for will be gone, co-owner Andre Robinson Pizza Cat will have video game options on flat screen televisions, as well as customizable pizzas, specialties like “Trapper’s Alley” — made up like a coney dog, and a full bar." - Serena Maria Daniels

My adventure to Ready Player One was amazing. Although kinda small, it was still a wonderful experience. The old school games were a treat and the atmosphere reminded me just like the arcades back in the 90s. I didn't get to try the food but the aromas made me seriously hungry though I just ate. I will update my review when I get the try the food but so far, I loved the place. That last star is reserved for the food.

Excellent service! The waitress was very nice of polite. It has a man cave feeling. It's a great place to have a date or hang with the guys. I recommend it as a must try!

Not a bad place to go to find some of those hard to find games. I'm a huge MK3 fan and you can't find machines anywhere. Glad theirs is operational. Was pretty difficult standing g at the bar to get a beer, but when I did get someone's attention they were pretty kind. Two tokens per drink seems like the norm, but it wasn't clear how to get more tokens. If there were machines to get them I completely missed them. Can't wait to come back

This place is completely awesome. So many of childhood arcades all in one place. Games I haven't seen in years is here and ready to be played. Great environment as well.

What a cool little gem in the underground of Detroit. This place is a little small, but really cozy and super cool. I'm not a big gamer, but had a blast here with my husband. They have an excellent beer selection and also serve food. Totally recommend if you're looking for some quick entertainment!

Food is amazing and the atmosphere is energetic. Lots of options for nostalgic arcade games for your inner 80s self. Staff is friendly and the location is great! It’s rare to see milk and cookies on the menu, but they knocked it out of the park!

Nice place, good vibes .. many gaming stations done work, food is good. People and staff are nice as well but again many of the gaming stations don't work, defeats the purpose.... Good luck enjoy!

I liked it. The place is not for comfort. It has about ten vintage arcade games. It serves food and liquor. Its a small place. I saw all ages a mixed crowd.
