Best pinball arcade in Houston! The games are well maintained and high end. I love the new facility upgrades and the nonsmoking atmosphere. I also appreciate the friendly bar staff. Great place for a date night!

(Previous review) Good dive with decent food and lots of arcade games. (Updated review after 3 years) been living in the Katy area and this is me and my bfs favorite place to get a drink. This is even after they remodeled the bar to non-smoking. I’ll smoke on occasion but he does regularly. There’s a decent outdoor smoking area now. I feel like the food is better, my favorite is the chicken sandwich and so many apps, all great prices. They have super cool pin ball machines and arcade games, pool, darts, different karaoke nights and games. Plus the bar tenders are very cool. Mike is an awesome bartender really the only bartender we know in Katy because we only go out one night pr week and that’s his shift. wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Strong drinks, cool and nice people + tasty food

My Girl had an amazing time dancing to the dj with the other girl, and the food was yummy and the beers cold. Only thing against this place is smelling like smoke when we left, but I don't care so much about that

Love this place, mostly. It’s got some trashy people here and there but that’s nothing they can control. Staff is always welcoming and friendly. Draft beers have been huge misses the last couple times I’ve gotten them so looks like I’m sticking to bottles.

I love the vibe of this place. If you can't tell by the picture, we had a great time. DJ, bar food, darkness, and fun games.

Not as nice as the other location. Its definitely a dive. However, the drinks are competitively priced and they have a great selection of pinball machines. Servers are nice. I'll have to try some food next time.

Bars and pubs are not too difficult to find, but sometimes, you might want something extra: a bar that offers more than just a stopping place for food, drinks, and sports viewing. If you like the idea of a bar that offers a little more elbow room and more than the usual features, then you might consider Einstein’s Pub, a mainstay of the Katy nightlife scene. Einstein’s Pub is larger than the average pub, with space inside to hold more than 100 people. You don’t realize how large it truly is until you walk inside. This pub has a full bar, a good number of beers on tap, and good, basic bar food munchies like burgers, chicken strip, tacos, cheese sticks, and other options. The food and drink are all reasonably priced with even better drink deals during happy hour, making this a good choice when funds are limited. You can watch sports at Einstein’s Pub, but the real attraction at this pub is its games. You can shoot pool, play darts, partake in numerous electronic games, and play pinball. Pinball is probably the standout, with about fifteen or so different machines. This might be the largest pinball selection in the entire Katy area. Einstein’s Pub has special deals and is known for its steak night, pint night, and very good happy hour deals. Because it is located in a strip mall, there is no issue with parking, as there is abundant space. One restriction that you need to keep in mind is that Einstein’s Pub is limited only to those age 21 and up. This is an establishment for adults only, and unless I’m mistaken, I believe this rule holds true during all hours of operation. One of Einstein’s Pub’s other claims to fame is that it is one of the very few establishments that once allowed indoor smoking. As far as I know, they have eliminated or plan to eliminate indoor smoking, but I noticed that the smell of smoke still lingers in the air. If you want to smoke, you should step outside. They have outdoor seating, so it should be fine. Pubs are known for their drinks, televised sports, and usually food. But Einstein’s Pub offers more. It’s one of the best places in Katy for games, and a great choice if you love playing several rounds of pinball on different machines. It’s a nice part of the Katy nightlife scene, and a place I recommend.

I stopped by to see how it is compared to the other location. As someone mentioned, it is a smokers paradise but It was too much for me. There's plenty of pinball machines and a few slot machines.

Good fun bar. Quite large and can be crowded or totally empty. Its like a giant dive bar in "trying to be a cool bar" suit with a waitstaff that can be hit or miss. If you take offense to rude or inattentive servers may not be for you.

The ambiance is always a vibe! I love the fact that they have multiple arcade games, darts and a pool table. There is a DJ at around 9PM that plays good music. You can smoke inside so if you’re not a smoker, this might not be the place for you. Food was 3/5, kinda underwhelming. Appetizers are good though so I will stick to those. For the area, this is my favorite bar, so I would recommend giving it a shot if you’ve never been before 🙂

I was so disappointed in the bartenders. Its all a power trip for them. who they serve and how they treat them. We definitely live in a time where its what you look like and if the bartenders like you. At the end of the day we as customers PAY for a service and don't ask for anything other than customer service and RESPECT. There is plenty of other places to spend our hard earned money when all we want to do is have a drink and watch a game. I'll take my money and dignity elsewhere!!! I didn't get the 2 male bartenders name but remember this, when you become desensitized to each other as human beings its time to push the reset button and remember we are replaceable!!!

Patrick serves free drinks to people he likes. He told my friend who has never caused issues here that she acts a fool and isn’t allowed to be here, yet all we do is play pool and mind our business. Said it has been “passed down from management”. If it had then why did the door guy and other bartenders have no problems? He needs to be let go immediately. I’m so mad from my experience. We did nothing wrong and got disrespected by Patrick.

So look, I was just chilling at the bar waitin. I’ve been here plenty of times and the bartender has served me before. But today she walked up and told me I was loitering because I didn’t buy anything yet.
