Review Summary

Reviewers note that The Rec Room at Royalmount combines a vast arcade with a family friendly restaurant and bar, offering a wide range of games including VR and a bracelet based endless play option that many see as solid value for hours of entertainment. It is frequently described as a great birthday venue for both kids and adults, with well designed party packages, game bracelets with points, generous portions from the kids menu, and adult menu items that land as tasty and satisfying; some visits even pair a movie at the Cineplex upstairs. The vibe is described as bright, energetic, and social, with a Las Vegas style energy and lots of positive mentions of friendly staff in many encounters, notably Gloire and Lex for attentive service. Yet several reviews flag inconsistent service and maintenance: some arcade titles are broken or lack functional multiplayer controls, some days one of the in house restaurants is closed or crowded, and bar service can be slow and disorganized. Food quality is also mixed across visits, with some meals praised and others criticized as overcooked or under seasoned and prices can feel high. Despite these caveats, the consensus is that The Rec Room offers a large, lively, family friendly entertainment hub with ample choice for games and meals, though improvements in staffing, maintenance, and communications would elevate the experience.

Nôtres 4iem visites (Février 2026) & arrêt au restaurant !
Restaurant : Bon !
Portion correct.
Service rapide.
Belle vaisselle.
Ambiance sportive.
Choix intéressent de menus & alcools.
Dispendieuxe comme tout au RoyalMount 16-29$ le plats.

RecRoom !

Nouvelle arcade Nouvelle disposition😀
Le choix & le coût d'échange des ticket gagné par contre est ordinaire & limité meme avec 2400 tickets gagné !

Mise à part nous avons eu du plaisir avant & après nôtres film😊
Nôtres troisième visite depuis son ouverture.

Les petits détails techniques lors de l'ouverture ont été corrigé !

Bon choix de jeux & une bonne quantité de jeux. Quelques une défectueuse ou des balles manquante.

Le magasin récompense (pour les ticket gagné) est intéressant & le choix variés.

Malgré le fait que le prix des crédits est dispendieux il reste une des meilleures place de divertissement que je connaisse dans la région de Montréal.

Love going here! It's a cool arcade for the kids. Just be careful with the machines, they sometimes charge you & the game doesn't load, so you have to go to the tickets kiosk & tell them, they will reload your bracelet :)) they have some VR games too which is cool. Nice place for kids, adults too if that's your thing 😍

Avoid live events. They hire disappointing hosts.

For trivia, the guy:
- handed prizes out to whoever he wanted without asking questions,
- selectively gave specific tables the chance to answer questions (preventing others from participating)
- tossed small trinkets (that we couldn't choose) to the other tables without saying a word to acknowledge them,
- set prizes aside for his friends
- kept some prizes for himself; some were never even on display
- he got lazy, drew out full boxes of prizes.
- Too invested in the game that he was barely present as a host. He also left the premises for part of the time (taking his coat off & sitting by the bar).
-> At that point, why bother hiring someone for trivia? Just ask the staff to do a raffle; it would have been more fair & less distracting/unfair.
-They should find a new host for their events altogether. I wouldn't go to any more events if they kept this host.

DJs: you have to wonder if they hire from the same family. Their DJs can't read a room if multiple tables just get up, & nobody who stayed dances, there's room for insight.

Food is pretty good. I wish they would bring back daily deals.

Really great place but as an establishment with so many kids there why isn't there a snack bar? Slush, popcorn, chocolate bars , candy or at least a vending machine? I mean the one bar/restaurant is ok but ya definitely need a snack ba

J'ai rarement eu un service aussi médiocre. Nous étions un groupe de huit. Malgré le fait qu'il n'avait pas beaucoup de clients qui mangeaient sur place, notre serveuse n'était jamais sur le plancher. Nous avons dû demander les menus, la chercher pour commander, la chercher pour commander d'autres boissons. Elle n'est jamais venue nous demander si c'était à notre goût. Rien. Tous les employés avaient l'air perdus. Nous avons dû aller commander au bar & même le barman avait l'air complètement perdu. J'ai reçu un gin tonic (gin +eau) pas de pétillant du tout. Je suis normalement compréhensive, mais je comprends les mauvaises reviews…

I had to wait 20 mins just to order, even tho there was no one else in line, the bartenders were making drinks for 20 mins straight without even bothering to serve their guests. I normally am not one to make complains as I also work in customer services, but honestly the rec room has the worst customer service I've ever seen. The employees are not welcoming , didn't bother serving me. I had to wait 30 mins for my food, which ended up being cold. That was on a visit on a dead day. Honestly this place deserves to be shut down. The games are not even good.

I've been at this location twice. First time was good service, quick & great waitress at the bar. Second time I went, service was terrible, the host'sit anywhere you want' but never notified our waitress. We had to ask someone else for our waitress just for the menu. The hostess look like she didn't care. The restaurant was barely busy. Finally got our waitress. Food took a while but it was good. The fact we had to ask around who is our waitress after 10+ minutes of waiting was ridiculous. For a spot that is less than 3 years old, you would expect better hosts. Food was good, atmosphere was good.

It's advertised as a huge arcade, but les trois monkeys downtown is much larger. The food was also quite disappointing & overpriced

Went with a group for a friend's birthday. Service staff was very nice, even when there's a lot of ppl. Great selection of games for a good price, could have a better selection of'trinkets' to win. Overall had a lot of fun & will come back.

Waitress say place is fully booked, but there was plenty of seats even after 2 hours, wish there was an option for 0 stars for lying

An inappropriate lady employee for the reception said that all the places are reserved despite seeing a number of empty tables for more than two hours, in addition to the filth of the restaurant is zero star 🤮

The food in the restaurant was very good! We went with low expectations for the comments, but the truth is that the Rec Room hamburgers were very delicious. VR's games were the best, also the dart game was good activity to do in friends, we were 3 adults & spent more than 3 hours in the games, it was great. I recommend!

Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir en famille. Petit conseil, demander pour le forfait de 3 heures illimité au lieu d'acheter des crédits! Car les points accumulés servent qu'à acheter des bebelles ordinaire & inutile!

It's the best arcade in Montreal because it's big & they have so many options of games & the offer of 40$ fro 3 hours unlimited is very affordable so I recommend you to go

Perfect Birthday Venue for Kids & Adults!

We recently hosted our son's birthday party at The Rec Room, & it was a massive success. The kids' party package is incredibly well-designed. Each child received a game bracelet with plenty of points, which kept them entertained for hours.
I was especially impressed with the food; even though it was from the kids' menu, the portions were generous-all the kids were full, & we even had leftovers! The popcorn & drinks were a great touch as well. We ordered from the regular menu for the adults, & everything was delicious. We ended the day by heading to the Cineplex upstairs for a movie. It was the perfect, stress-free birthday celebration. Highly recommend!
