A new spot for fun, food and games has arrived in Quezon City. Dave & Buster’s has officially opened its doors on the 3rd floor of Opus, Bridgetowne, marking the first Southeast Asian branch of the famous US “eatertainment” brand. Whether it’s a date, an after-school hangout, or a family game night, this is the place to be.

DAILY TRIBUNE got the first look and tried out some of the games in the arcade area, and the energy was contagious. Guests moved from racing simulators to VR adventures and classic arcade favorites, while even Bistro executives joined in on the conga line — proof that the fun easily spreads to everyone around.

The restaurant brings the best of both worlds, offering American classics and Filipino favorites. From Buster’s Bacon Burger and the Fuego Chicken Sandwich to Crispy Pata, Adobong Bagnet and Beef Salpicao, there’s something for everyone. Shareable plates and a fully stocked bar make it easy to grab a bite or unwind between games.

Antonio Bautista, Chief International Development Officer at Dave & Buster’s, said, “Part of the allure of going to a Dave & Buster’s is the one-in-one offering. It is a multi-dimensional experience with cutting-edge games and technology, high-quality food and drinks, and exceptional sports viewing. It excites all the senses. Our approach ensures Dave & Buster’s is the destination of choice for people of all ages, be it a family night or a day out with friends. We are delighted to announce our expansion into the Philippines, marking a significant milestone in our global growth strategy to reach a broader audience. The Bistro Group’s reputation as one of the strongest restaurant operators and a trendsetter in the F&B industry in Southeast Asia and beyond makes them our ideal partner.”

Meanwhile, Jean Paul Manuud, president of The Bistro Group, added, “Entering the ‘eatertainment’ sector with a renowned brand is an exciting development for us. This collaboration enhances our portfolio by enabling us to offer unparalleled dining and entertainment experiences in the Philippines. Dave & Buster’s is a well-positioned and distinctive brand with broad market appeal. It’s for everybody. Parents can eat while their kids play games, young adults can dine, drink, and enjoy interactive games, while others can simply watch sports at the bar. It’s about creating memories through a mix of fun, food, cutting-edge games and a vibrant atmosphere.”

At the arcade, winners can head to the Win Area, where hard-earned tickets translate into cool rewards, collectibles, and even gadgets. There is also a Billiard Hall for chill sessions, complete with lounge seats and pro-level tables for your next friendly showdown.

Hosting a party or company event? Dave & Buster’s has private rooms and VIP areas ready for epic celebrations, complete with custom menus and game credits.

Dave & Buster’s is not just another restaurant or arcade — it’s where nostalgia meets next-level play, where great food meets great company, and where every visit becomes a memory worth repeating.
