The 1UP Arcade Bar - Colfax

Security personnel are outdated and heavy attitude. They ask for ID and do not accept green cards or social security cards with pictures. The manager is a very mentally limited guy. Some bartenders is the only salvageable..

The mixed gender bathrooms are a haven for creeps. Hearing some cringy stories from female friends.

Cool place but the creepy 40+ year old "security" man stalking around the bathrooms made very uncomfortable as a woman. Wont be returning because of this.

Vegetarian options: Cheese Pizza

WOW! THIS PLACE IS A BLAST!!! 1000 OUTA 10

Went for a friends birthday. One of the racing games didn’t connect with the other games, the skew ball area had stick floors as well as the balls. There was one bar tender for a Saturday night, and she didn’t seem excited to be there. Would have stayed a little longer if I could have gotten a drink of some kind.

This place is the ultimate playground for adults. I got overwhelmed by so many games I could play, but definitely tried to play them all. The amount per game is reasonable and varies. They have old to new games. The bar area is nice. I wish I would have got her name but the bartender was great. They had a sign with promoted drinks, and I tried the White Tea shot! It was soooooo good and went down so smooth I had several! I didn’t get to try any food, but I did enjoy my time here.

They have pizza, didn't have any. Lots of drinks and arcade games. Nostalgia from it all. They took care of me on my stay in Denver. Wish I could spend more time here. Tipped well.

I was looking to organize an event for a large group, and Nina reached out and helped get me in contact with management to make it happen. We had more than 50 people show up and the staff handled it with ease and smiles. Everyone had a great time and I'd definitely recommend it for a fun night out!

The reviews about some of the staff being rude are definitely accurate. I've been coming here for 10 years. That being said, I still come for the games. But the owners are losing money because of some of the staff. They should really do something and get rid of the portion of the staff who don't belong in the service industry. I just mostly ignore them, quickly order a drink and then go play games and it's fine. But don't expect a smile from most of them and the bouncers are definitely rude and unreasonable fairly often. It's not my bar so whatever but I don't see why the owners let some of the staff lose money for them. Still worth going though, for the games.

Honestly would have given this place 5 stars if it wasn’t for the dude up front. He gave us a very condescending rude attitude from the start. The music is honestly trash too but there’s an option to pay for music to be played. They also closed a hour before google said they would. Not that big of a deal but the same dude from up front had an attitude about it. Nonetheless we had a good time. The bartender was really nice! She was helpful and sweet. Although the drinks are overpriced unless you come during happy hour. The games are fun. It’s pretty cheap too. Nothing too fancy but still a fun date night and a retro arcade.

Pinball... All the pinball.

Wow, it’s kind of insane the absolute rudeness I get from the employees here. I can’t say that about every employee because I get a total sweetheart here and there, but overall most of the employees here are so miserable and rude. I’m a long term bartender and all I can say is find a different profession if you hate this so much jfc
