Barcade

I loved it there. It was always chilled and fun. It is super easy to get into contact with new people, especially when playing Pac-Man. They have all the old arcade machines and even flippers (also with newer themes like stranger things). There are racing and shooting games but also the classic jump and run and fighting games like Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter. They have a wide offer of beers and there was like a group party with finger food. We always asked the guys behind the bar to change us a few dollar bills, so we could get tokens at the machine. I think the prices for the games are fair and it is a lot of fun.

This place is absolutely incredible! 🤩 Barcade is a fantastic bar and arcade that includes an endless selection of draft beers 🍻 and an impressive collection of old and new arcade games 🕹️: 4P Pac-Man, X-Men, pinball, co-op shooters, and so much more! Really enjoyed spending time here and trying out all the game stations! 🎮 Bar 🍺 staff is friendly and the service is quick! ⏲️ I wish I came here more often!

Fun place, but it's the pretty damn stellar beer selection - WOW! Didn't expect that. Good rock/alternative music too. Went for a work team outing. Plenty of fun games, retro and new, a few pinball machines, and a 4 player Pac-Man game. Great for team bonding, you can get packages that incl. food, drinks, and game tokens. The food was fine, the beer selection STELLAR. Looking forward to coming back!

Prefer this location over downtown. Bigger, more open space, and better-maintained in my opinion. We went earlier in the day shortly after they opened, so everything was very clean and in order (including the bathroom). Most arcades token operated...taking 1-2 tokens for most games. Tokens can be purchased from machines throughout the space at 0.25 cents each.. (4/$1, 20/$5...). Service both at the bar and at the arcade area were great. Nice to see staff testing out the machines throughout the space. All machines we tried were working as expected. Beer prices were fair (for NYC) at about $8. Pints for the more common weaker stuff (under 6% or so) and 10oz. pours for the stronger stuff. Very easy to get to in the midtown area...lots of major stations and transportation hubs closeby. Given the average prices for beer and food, you'd definitely want to go there for the games...think of it is an arcade that serves beer and food...not a bar/restaurant with an arcade.

This is one of my favorite places to go to. A nice sized bar and a wide selection of beers to choose from. The games range from your classics to more modern titles. There's enough variety to entertain most people. It can get crowded during peak hours so I like to go in the afternoon before 6 pm on the weekends. That way you can have space to comfortably play and enjoy your beverage. I've been multiple times since it opened at this location and NEVER had any issues or saw any issues while there. Everyone seems to be respectful and into having a fun time.
