When Blake Street Tavern moved a block down Blake Street three years ago, it took over a big space with a great view of the Ballpark neighborhood -- and a really big basement. After several attempts to brand that underground area, it looks like Blake Street has finally come up with a winner: Underground Social, an interactive game area that hosts a public grand opening tomorrow from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m.

The downstairs is now devoted to a giant selection of interactive games, including cornhole, darts, shuffleboard, ping pong, skeeball, Pop A Shot, Big Buck Hunter HD, giant Connect 4, giant Jenga, air hockey and more; if you prefer to watch, rather than play, games, there are eighteen high-def TVs in the space. And Underground Social has its own bar, with 24 drafts on tap as well as weekly drink specials.
Find more information on the grand opening on the Blake Street website; in the meantime, here's a look at the renovated space:
