Personally my favorite arcade because they have lots of games that are retro and a bunch of new games at the same time. It's not like your Dave& Buster's, but it's a good mix between an old arcade and a new arcade with beer. I've been there twice already and each time is a new experience. The first time was just me getting what I wanted and playing games and then the second time they were having some sort of event with local artists that design clothes and such. I'm sure they'd be open up to other events as well if the community wants. The bathrooms are clean and also really cool. For me personally I play fighting games so there was one arcade machine that had a lot of them on it. Oh and don't worry If you want to bring your kids here that's totally fine. They have soda for kids and a good selection of alcoholic beverages...

Update: I just read the comment below mine, I was also a single female walking into this bar alone. The guy I encountered was a male in his 30s with long blonde hair & glass. I would definitely suggest staying away from here as this seems to be reoccurring issues with the doorman.

Just walked away from trying to enter this bar, the guy at the front door scanned my ID at the door as I was told it’s a once time membership of a dollar (no biggie) so as i was filling out the paperwork the guy told me he had to go to the DMV because he’s seen a few IDs like mine but wasn’t up to date on something he was seeing with his black light. So you’re turning away customers because your lack of knowledge of changes to the NC IDs (mind you - mine was updated 6 months ago). Very...

I am absolutely baffled at what I experienced here. A long haired man with glasses (looked about in his 30s) tried pocketed my LEGAL government issued ID. He was working the front desk, on March 12th around 9:00 PM. Coming in with my friend who had an ID very similar to my own, in which he accepted, would not return my ID until we threatened to call the police. Upon checking again he finally gave it back, probably realizing it was legitimate, but told us not to come back. He stole my property and was probably scared for the police to come given that reeked of marijuana. Do not come here, especially if you are a young girl, and don't want to deal with this...

Awesome arcade bar. Interesting selection of beers, including some cool local breweries (I got a great milk stout), and a small set of beers on tap. Plenty of places to sit inside and a few tables outside. The vibe of the place, including the staff, is genuinely cool. There are a few machines (20 or so) that mainly consist of pinball with videogames. Games usually cost $0.5 in quarters, although it could be more (pinball $1). It's okay, but it does let you get carried away as in other arcades that charge to get in or only charge for the drinks. Pretty lively for a mid-June Tuesday night. If I lived in Chapel Hill I'd visit them often.
