Gaming cafes in Canada

17 gaming cafes, PC lounges and esports centers in 4 cities, 437 gaming PCs counted.

Seventeen venues in Canada, 437 gaming PCs counted across the ten that publish a number, in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and Windsor.

The largest counted floor is 17 Gaming in Richmond at 130 machines, but that number comes from a review rather than from the venue, and the room is currently marked as temporarily closed. The largest floor a venue states itself is Saints Esports Nexus Arena, inside St. Clair College in Windsor: 110 PCs on RTX 5080 cards with 360Hz monitors at C$3 an hour - the lowest published rate in the country on this list. The arena is open to the public and free for college students.

Toronto has grown to seven rooms, and three of them publish nothing about their floors. Invictus Game Station on Yonge Street is the most-reviewed venue in the metro at 434 Google reviews and runs PCs, consoles, mahjong and a bar in one space; a second Invictus in North York follows at 309. Giga bites on Bloor Street West tiers its machines up to an RTX 3080 Ti; 超级玩家 Super E-sports Cafe has closed permanently. Of the older rooms, Playerbase in Markham is the only venue in Canada open around the clock, A-Zone Gaming runs 16 PCs on RTX 5070 cards, and Challenger Gaming Internet Cafe charges C$3.50 an hour.

Vancouver, added the same month, holds five rooms across the city, Richmond and North Vancouver. Only one of them publishes a price - 5FiftyGame downtown, at C$8.50 an hour on RTX 4070 Ti machines - and four of those five stay open past midnight.

In Montreal two of the four rooms publish what is inside: ESPORTS SKY in Lachine at 30 PCs with monitors up to 360Hz, and Noodle Empire in Kirkland at five PCs, five PlayStations and six Switch consoles for C$15 a day. Cafe Net 24h and Nemesis publish nothing beyond hours and an address.

Thirteen of the seventeen Canadian venues stay open past midnight.
