Cheat Code Lounge

I’ve been to this bar several times now and absolutely love the atmosphere. I feel like that area needed a relaxing atmosphere bar that you could actually have a conversation without loud music playing. I enjoyed good hefty drink craft cocktail while playing board games. This will be my go to on those nights I’m not sure what to and just want to be out and socialize. I don’t agree with another reviewer saying the staff is unfriendly. The bar is new and the staff is trying their best to learn craft cocktails. I love the fact they’re open to trying and learning from the customers. It’s not fair to tear them down after only a few weeks open. I dislike how our community is quick to criticize over supporting and growing our community. I encourage everyone to try it out, I went because so many of my friends said it was fun to play Mario Kart and sip on a craft cocktail. I especially loved the fact I got to play Monopoly on one of the digital board game tables, haven’t done that in ages. I fully recommend you trying this bar out. Chat with the staff, you’ll find they’re friendly and they’re doing their best to learn. That’s all I can ask for.

I love this place! The Oaklawn "Strip" needed a nice lounge like this place. Very nice vibe! Great cocktails! Also, the video game effect is amazing! You can easily spend a couple of hours drinking and playing Mario Kart!

This is such a cute and amazing place to hangout. I've came in here since it opened and it's so refreshing to go into a bar just to hangout with your friends and play video games for hours. All the customers and even all the staff are having fun the entire time that they're here and I've never seen anyone in here who was having a bad time. When I'm having a bad day and don't want to just go straight home after work and have a nice play to chill, this place is perfect. If you love video games and wanna enjoy a great cocktail, you should definitely stop by this place sometime. It is absolutely amazing.

A great concept for a craft cocktail bar. There’s nothing else themed like it and as often as I’ve been since opening, the crowd is always great. It’s definitely an experience and great showmanship of the care they take for the craft they’re offering. Give it a shot and definitely check it out. The entire staff is awesome and kudos to them for indulging us in such fun and crafty bevvys. Props to Lucas, Jaime, Efrain, Moises, & Rocky.

This bar is a really cool and unique breath of fresh air into the Dallas strip. Totally new concept that doesn't exist anywhere else on the strip. They did a really great job of building out the space into an intimate and hip vibe. The cocktails are on point and one of a kind, the service is friendly and nice to look at, and the arcade games are a fun way to spend a night out for drinks. Highly recommend you give it a try.

We had an absolute blast here! We visited this bar strip in Dallas and I heard about this place online and wanted to check it out. We expected to only be here for about 20-30 minutes before moving on to the next bar, but we ended up spending the whole evening here! Super cool decor and we loved playing the various games on the touchscreen tables all night. Highly, higly recommend if you're in the area!

Such a fun little spot in Oak Lawn! It can get busy, but is a much more low key spot than some other places in the area. Love the free game tables! We were loving Sorry, Trivial Persuit, and a surprise favorite - Chicken Attack (or something like that). Great array of cocktails - some fun signature drinks, huge array of martinis, and must try a smoked old fashioned - you can mix and match the whiskey/rye/bourbon and type of wood.

Absolutely lovely little spot & it's hidden so it's a little adventure to finally find it

Great time, bartender made an excellent water melon drink.

This bar has been an awesome addition to the strip. Craft cocktails and video games was such a clever idea. The atmosphere is exciting the moment you start at the door with the riddle, then make your way inside to a world of games, neon lights, big screen TV’s and DIGITAL TOUCH SCREEN TABLE TOPS with tons of multiplayer games!! How cool! This place has been a big hit since the opening and everyone I’ve spoken to has had nothing but great things about it. Not to mention the awesome bartenders behind the bars making some sweet signature drinks and craft cocktails! Make your way to Cheat Code Lounge ASAP!

I love the "hidden entrance" & all the fun games. The bartender, Antonio, was AWESOME and made sure we had a great night! He's there Thursdays & Sundays!

Ok, first ever speakeasy and it was interesting! If you like games, a hangout spot, and nice sip of alcohol, I would recommend this place. We were welcome by two nice bar attenders who served some unique drinks (PeanutButter cocktail) hint, hint. Games are free, drink prices are little up there, but I think worth it. We visited twice.

Much more loungey than nightclub/bar which is exactly what the strip was missing. Chill vibe and atmosphere is awesome! Bartenders are very nice. The only downside is the prices of some of the cocktails, $24 for a drink is asinine.

I had a great time at the bar. I got an aviation from Jaime Ortiz, and it was incredible. The service was great (it certainly helps when the staff isn’t terrible to look at), and the entire feel of the bar is very inviting. Some of the game tables occasionally run a little slow, but that is an easy fix. I definitely recommend trying it out.

This place is something the Crossroads really needed. It's a lounge, not a full on club and not a pure bar. It's a good place to chill with a group or solo. The drinks are great and the staff is super attentive and friendly. Honestly the only reasons it gets a star off are that the game tables are finicky due to all the drinks so they don't always work, and it's cramped on the inside area (admittedly hard to avoid, it is just the bar behind the DJ booth of S4 that was split off) Only the game tables seem to have issues, i.e. the sit down tables. All the wall arcade games and Nintendos seemed to be working great. They have a couple of screens for Switches to play things like Mario Kart.

I ordered 5 lemon drops and it was $80 which is absolutely INSANE! The drinks are extremely overpriced for no reason. The bartender was great, he doesn’t control the pricing so I don’t want to put it on him. If you go to this place ask for the prices before you order anything. It’s not even that great of a place to begin with to be charging those prices. I’ll probably never go there again.
