Looking for a gaming cafe in Dublin City centre

Dufflecoat Fanny

Tried ringing xgc but girl on the phone couldn't give me any information. I'd like to play some games from my steam account in the evenings.

Short answer, there aren't any - no market for it.

I haven't been inside but I thought there was one on Liffey Street on the corner near the Music Minds guitar shop.

Skerries

that's the only one I can think of as well

There's another internet café that may like to think it's a gaming café near Connolly / Amiens Street station. At the corner of Gardiner Street. But I would'nt rate any internet café in Dublin as taking gamers seriously. More suited to international students checking their webmail and messaging their friends on facebook etc.

XGC are scaling back their gaming operations tbh; half the floor is a mobile accessories shop now.

Ireland is very poor when it comes to gaming places like this. They are not cheap too.

I would even suggest getting yourself a loan and buying one of those new budget gaming laptops. In a way what you would spent in there would pay off your laptop. Good gaming laptop can be picked up for 1k or less. You could get one of those dell inspirion ones. They doing 7% off with a code and if you chat with them they will drop another 10%. One of the lads here did it.
If you looking for actual community in one of those places, I doubt you will find it. I was lucky enough to grow up where we had these gaming places and it was great crack back in the day when you played on lan with people you knew.
