where gaming culture meets comfort food
seattle has a thriving gaming community, but nowhere to gather. gamers deserve a space that combines competitive esports, casual play, quality food, and an atmosphere worth posting about.
terabites is that space. we're building seattle's first large-scale gaming cafe where you can dominate in tournaments, hang with friends over shell noodle bowls, and experience cyberpunk aesthetics IRL.
24-32 stations powered by centralized server racks. consistent performance, tournament-ready, latest hardware. not just a few PCs in a corner - this is serious infrastructure.
our signature pink spicy bowl is Instagram gold. shell noodles + velveeta + flaming hot cheetos + carolina reaper cheese. you've never seen (or tasted) anything like it.
LED screens everywhere. metal and glass construction. neon-lit futuristic bar. cyberpunk aesthetic that makes every corner photo-worthy. this isn't just a cafe - it's an experience.
futuristic mocktail bar means everyone can join. no 21+ restriction. families, teens, adults - all welcome. gaming is for everyone.
weekly tournaments. partnerships with local streamers and gaming clubs. spectator-friendly setup. we're building a hub, not just a business.
competitive player? we've got tournaments. casual gamer? chill and play. just hungry? grab food. watching friends? spectate in comfort. everyone has a reason to be here.
"my first gaming memory is sneaking out of my room in the middle of the night to watch my parents play Super Mario Bros. i got my first Game Gear at 5, experienced the Sega Channel, grew up in the golden era of gaming.
as a military kid, i moved constantly. new schools, new cities, new faces. but games? games were always there. they were the constant when everything else kept changing.
now i'm building terabites in Seattle - a place that understands the gaming community they bring. i want to create the space i always wished existed: where you can game, eat something worth posting about, and actually belong.
a futuristic present. where gaming culture, innovative food, and community converge.
this isn't just a business. it's home for gamers who've been searching for one."

terabites is not just a gaming cafe. it is the economic engine for something bigger.
we are building an intentional community โ a housing cooperative where members contribute 10-15 hours per week doing work they choose. terabites is the launchpad, but the real engine is our members. each household contributes one person offering their technical skills โ development, design, IT, consulting โ to clients outside the community. the money does not touch individual hands. it flows directly into community funding for housing, food, and growth. no landlords extracting rent. no corporations skimming value. community wealth that stays in the community.
"use capitalism to escape capitalism."
profitable business + measurable social good. this is impact investing.
