fun!

I happen to walk past The Hangout(THO) on a night out with my girlfriends. This is a boardgame/ console game cafe. Was trying to take photos with the yoshi standing at the entrance without being noticed by the shop owners. Lol. She still saw me, and came out to me. I thought she was going to chase me away, but... she said "Hi! You like Yoshi? We're actually a new establishment, would you like to come in and take a look?" I went in and recee-ed, and promised i'll be back.


One week later i returned on Xmas eve with hubby and frenz. 50% promo during Dec. I had lots of fun with the game consoles (there's xbox & wii). Time passed so fast i didnt even have time to check out the board games. Haa.


All in all, it was a fun evening, with good setting and service. The areas i think can be improved would probably be food quality. Other than the really yummy popcorn, everything else from snacks, finger food to the drinks were not worth mentioning.


Also, it was quite hard to get service staff as the night progressed. Maybe its new and short-handed. Hopefully it'll get better!

 
I also recommend this place for
Occasion:Large Groups/Gathering, Boys Night Out, Girls Night Out, After Work, Chillout

Management Response: 30 Jan 2010 Helloo! so happy to see u review here! :D anyway, our cafe was opened on the 19th of december. during our first month, we were very short staff and many problems cropped up. I understand many of the problems are no excuse for our lack of service towards ur group and i apologise, SORRY!

But, i assure u that, we have improved in many areas. not only our popcorn is as yummy as ever, our snack choices are also better now. Try our chilli beef cheese fries! its totally awesome! really! we value feedbacks on our food so that we can improve on the quality. One of our aim is to provide quality food on top of quality fun! :D we refused to be the kind of cafe that focus on our console and boardgames and neglect our food quality.

So, give us a chance, and try us again. our main course, the chicken chop u tried, also improved over the course of this 1 month plus. and our other choices also have quite good reviews from people. Of course, i am not trying to boast only the up side as we do have negative feedbacks but we are using them to improve and try to satisfy everyone. (we know its impossible but we try!)

so, call us and book a table, or a room, and try again! take a picture with Yoshi again too! :) we have many new console games and boardgames up in shelves and we are sure you will like your next visit!

See you soon! Cheers!
