Paul Granger, Mark McHale and Kevin Berger acquired a 10-year lease on the 1077 Bank street location. The 4,000 sq. ft. basement venue formerly housed the Bayou Blues bar, The New Bayou and The Underground.

The concept behind the House of Targ name comes from the popular 1980 arcade game "Targ",[5] which was the first machine donated to the space.

A monthly House of Targ Zine is put out and distributed around Ottawa.

In 2014, the venue had around twelve classic arcade games and eighteen "vintage pinball games".[2]
