I came for the arcade but tried the food and bevs. Staff were friendly and excellent. The concept is you get in line and order at the bar. You take your drink back with a buzzer if you got food then come back when your pocket is tingly with pleasure (from the buzzer). Do they have servers at other times?
They need soda guns at the bar. The bartender has to walk back into the kitchen to fill a coke which wastes close to a minute. Why does one minute matter? because there are 4 of them and a line that went outside down the patio. I want to get back to my pinball game but im now standing in line for another drink. I decided to close my tab because i didnt want to get back in line to do that later.
The traditional server is badly missed here and is what we pay 30% tips for. Take my order, bring me drinks, bring my food, close my tab while i enjoy my time. The line sucks and I feel like im at a football game waiting in lines and not watching the game.
Nice place, fun games, good brew, nice staff.

8 Bit Brewing Company in Murrieta is doing something right.
They have a great location right off of Jefferson Ave and Date St in Murrieta, just a few blocks west of the 15 freeway.
The brewery has indoor and patio seating, and can accommodate many guests making it a perfect place for group outings and family gatherings. We stayed a few hours into the evening and got to sit near their fire pits, which were nice. It did get colder so I wish they had some of the heat lamps turned on near us.
They have the typical gastropub offerings and a large selection of drinks. We ordered a variety of items from their menu and enjoyed snacking on all the dishes. I especially was impressed with the Chicharrones because it came out sizzling and warm, and it had a kick to it. Spicy and crunchy.
Inside, they have an arcade including pinball machines for all ages. To play any of the games, you’ll need to purchase a game card and load points onto it. They have a machine that can guide you through the process. Similar to Dave & Busters or Round1 cards.
The service could have been handled better when we arrived. Long story short, we stayed in the hostess’s view near the pinball machines while we waited for our party’s patio seating. Somehow they “gave up our seats” to another party because we didn’t come fast enough after they sent out the notification text. Mind you, we came within 3 minutes after because we were in the arcade but most of our party were still seated near the hostess stand. Anyway, we eventually were seated in the patio after an additional 10 minutes. The only weird thing the hostess asked us was if we were going to be making food purchases, as if it were a requirement to be given patio seats. And the answer was: of course! (That’s what we came to do: eat, stay, play, and drink!) We ordered inside because the kids were hungry - that doesn’t mean we weren’t going to order again after we sat down.
Overall, despite the service we received with just trying to get seated, 8 Bit Brewing Company checks off all the goods: good for all ages, great for groups and families, good drinks, good food, and lovely atmosphere. A decent 3.8 but I’m rounding my rating to a 4 because we had a great time.
Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly and they have limited games for kids (eg, claw machine, skee ball, hit the clown, basketball, and other arcade games).
Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible - plenty of space for dining near the bar

I felt in love with this place, arcade + beer = ❤️
Great service, awesome food better beers.
Kid-friendliness: All in all, It is a brewery with arcade but they have cool vintage games and a lot of pinball machines some carnival games and a Photobooth. It is a place to adults to chill but if you don’t have a nanny the kids definitely will have something to do.
Recommended dishes: Truffle Fries, Short Rib Quesadilla, BBQ Pork

Super fun and modern vibes. They have an arcade with all sorts of new age and old school games. A good selection of beers and wine. There is a huge outdoor dog-friendly patio with misters. We got the chicken quesadilla which was not too overly cilantro flavored with their cream sauce, also the pulled pork sandwich. The pulled pork sandwich was not a smoky flavor, but was more on the tomatoey flavor, which I didn’t prefer, but the whole setup was really nice and pleasant. If you want to order a drink at the bar, you do have to wait in line, unless you get a table and order from your server.

This place is awesome! The food, ambiance, and service is 5 stars! My husband and I had a hard time purchasing a game card. However, the staff and manager were quick to resolve. We will be coming back soon!
This was my first time visiting this brewery and it was a plus today because it was during Oktoberfest, and despite the busyness, we received amazing service from our server Jordan. She was very attentive, friendly, and personable. She made sure my husband and I had everything we needed. The food was delicious and the portions were amazing, didn’t go back home with an empty stomach. To add the hefe 4 dead beer was really good. When we go back hopefully we get Jordan again!!!

This brewery is kid friendly. It has plenty of space and an arcade room with classics such as Street Fighter, Pacman, Donkey Kong, etc. They have a lot of pin ball machines. Kool art and tshirts for sale. The food is pretty yummy and they have a pretty interesting beer selection. Really enjoyed the Pillars of King brew.

Came here to grab lunch with my girlfriend and the food was great and the staff were very kind! I got the smash burger and the bacon jam on it was SO good, and the tots and fries were also great. My girlfriend usually hates beer, but she really enjoyed the drink she got, the dan opener.
Our favorite part of our visit was definitely the arcade, they've got an awesome selection of games with a lot of classic Sega, Capcom, and Namco cabinets to choose from, and the prices on credits are very fair! Way better value than Round1, and we'll definitely be coming here instead from now on. Also, their decorations are amazing, my personal favorite was definitely this Ghost of Brewshima painting they had hanging in a hallway by the restrooms.
This place is super legit and we could tell that there's been a lot of passion put into it, and we can't wait to go back!
