Dak’s Pizza And Games

We drove up from greenvalley for a fire academy graduation, we had an hour and half before the ceremony and needed to fed ourrselves and toddle, we thought we were walking in to a peter piper type place but it was very different. These are xbox and wii gamig consoles right at your table. Very cool, since we could keep our toddler having fun while staying right at our table. We ordered half an hour of game time and a lg pizza, 2 beers and sprite. We arent too savvy on video games so pur waitress was extremely helpful, in showing our son how to play. The pizza came out with in that half hour and was delicious! The crust is just wonderful. (I’m a complete crust snob) can’t be aoggy, oily or mushy. We fnished our meal with plenty of time to head over to the graduation. Our controllers disconnected twice but the waitress and manager were quick to come help each time. We plan on havig our sons birthday party there. 7 $ a child each hets thier own pizza. And next time were in that area we’ll definitely be back!

Good pizza. Tasty crust and friendly staff. Great boneless wings as well. Try the different types of ranch sauce. Good grub.

Disorganized employees who can’t communicate where customers are seated. I ordered a small pizza for the kids and a salad with a phone call (20 mins before), not knowing if my family were going to dine-​in or carry out, because it was a busy Friday night (fundraising event). We decided to dine in because the kids wanted to play with the Xbox. I paid for the food and the drinks and the kids found an Xbox table. It took me and my 8-​yr old daughter 30 minutes to finally get a game going (to many updates and freezing up). She play 10 minutes before the system kicked her out back to the main menu (?). By that time, my 6-​yr said he was hungry and I realized that we didn’t have our food yet (Thats why I called it in!).
So, I stood in line for 15 minutes (busy fundraising night) to ask about our food. The hostess said it was just sent out to our table, so I went back. No food…, after 10 minutes, I went back to ask again and they tried to blame my 8 and 6-​year old for refusing the food after the waiter/​waitress ask if it was their order, while I was away. How could my kids know that I ordered a salad?
By that time, I had enough and just wanted a refund on the food and the gaming. I only asked to pay for the drinks. So far, its been 3 days and the credit card transaction is still pending for the refund.
At least McDonalds across the street was dependable (ugh!).

The food was decent enough. This place is probably ideal for teenagers, but not really for small kids. The manager was nice enough, but he felt the need to come over and talk to myself and the other adults at our table about video games for 20 minutes. We tried to make it clear that we weren’t really understanding all of his gaming references and jargon, but he just kept going on about upcoming gaming systems and their new features. It was kind of annoying because I was trying to spend time with family I don’t see very often. Peter Piper is much better.

Peter Piper for the middle school set. Hubby and I ate here on a Friday night. Don’t ask me why. I order a salad that was listed as having mozzarella, basil and tomatoes. Asked the young man at the register if it has lettuce with it, He said yes. So I ordered it. Young man was also nice enough to put ESPN on our TV. Pizza was okay but the salad came and it was the cheese cut in I guess you could call them chunks, about 6 cherry tomatoes cut in half and probably a half basil leave torn up… no lettuce. All that for $ 7. Manager type person came by and we asked about the salad. He said no lettuce. Weird, just weird. Pizza was okay. But honestly if I am going to eat just okay pizza and a weird salad in front of a TV, me and the Mr can do that at home with our tv trays.
Place probably does a killer lunch business with the MVHS crowd.

While this place has a cool idea behind it, it is nowhere near developed enough. Our cashier forgot to give us our controllers and there are no instructions on how to operate any of the gaming systems so if you have never used a Wii U you spend 10 minutes of your gaming time trying to figure it out. Also many of the games offered are only demos. If your selling point is offering a catalog of games right at your table then you need to actually do that.
On to the food, it took over an hour for us to receive two pizzas and an order of what they like to refer to as wings. I say that because they were very obviously frozen and from a bag like you would get at the grocery store. We ordered barbecue so all they did was drizzle barbecue sauce on top. When the order arrived it looked something covered in chocolate sauce, I didn’t know what it was, not to mention the barbecue sauce was BAD. The pizza is mediocre but it was only $ 10 so I guess that’s to be expected.
I don’t foresee this business making it much longer and I wouldn’t go back nor recommend it to anyone under any circumstances.

Took my son there today and first the kid didn’t give us our drinks. We sat at the game table we tried to play games and we tried 3 games and they didn’t work, he came over and we asked him if we were doing it right and he said yes. We tried another game about 25 min in and he came back over and said «your controller wasn’t registered the whole time, my bad you have a few more min left, but how was the pizza? So bad service 20.00 for a small pizza 2 drinks and game time that we couldn’t use! That place sucks and to boot the owner was there and took no action!

The pizza is surprisingly good, especially the crust. It’s a great place to take the family and let the kids play some video games while you eat. I do wish they served some beer, though, for the adults. I’m not a soda drinker, so it would be nice to have something besides water for myself.

We were a little taken back when we walked in. We were expecting something like Peter Piper Pizza with a variety of games and maybe a play area for toddlers. This place is set up with groups of tables in front of TVs as well as single seats around the outer walls. You can choose to play Wii, XBox or Playstation. You get 30 minutes of playtime with the purchase of pizza and a drink. You can purchase additional time. We had our 10 year old grandson and 3 year old granddaughter with us. He loved it but there was nothing for our granddaughter or us to do except watch him. They did have a large screen TV with Avatar showing when we visited but this didn’t interest our granddaughter or us either. It would have been fine if they had a play area like McDonalds or at least a few little rides for smaller kids. The pizza was the usual fare. They also had a salad menu but the pizza came in one size only, 8″ and only one choice of crust. Their target audience is very specific. I could see this place doing well downtown by the U of A but not in this area of town. I will be surprised if they make it a year.

Took kids here and they absolutely loved it! I seen an elder couple playing the Wii having fun. Teenagers having a blast. My 11 year old and his friend played Xbox. My son said it was some of the best pizza he ever had. Prices we very reasonable. Only knock would be to maybe tilt the tvs down so you don’t get a glare from the lights above.
