It was an alright time, just super super crowded for the amount of actual arcade machines/pool tables so everything was always taken. Also the drinks were way overpriced and not super strong.

The posted hours say this place closes at 2 am, yet I arrived at 1:07 am and was refused entry. Nowhere does it mention that customers won’t be allowed in after 1:00 am. If that’s your policy, update your hours and be transparent about it. I wouldn’t have wasted my time coming here if I had known I was going to be turned away nearly an hour before closing. The guy at the door was being unnecessarily rude.

Went here Friday night with a couple friends and honestly had a blast. Got a few local beers, an Old Fashioned, and bounced between NBA Jam, Mortal Kombat, and skee-ball for like 3 hours straight. Spot has that cool warehouse vibe without trying too hard. Music was solid, crowd was chill, and nobody rushed us. Easy West Loop go-to now.

Best arcade in the city. Hidden gem and perfect location to eat after. The game pricing is excellent, the bartenders are are great friendly and fast. (Side note: be sure to leave an open tab for you and your party time flies and drinks will move like water.
I’m waiting on Emporium to have a digital ranking of the highest scores on their games that would be epic.
If you are in town visiting or a local who wants to have some time to wind down, check out Emporium and be sure to visit their locations in Fulton Market, Logan Square, and West Town.

Went to play pool! Had good drinks at the bar. Has a bunch of arcade games like basketball, air hockey, some of those traditional arcade Pac-Man games and a Photo Booth. Cute spot for dates if you’ve never go during the day before it gets packed at night

Great idea for a bar! Upkeep for the machines is needed. Some of the games didn't work or had buttons that didn't work.
Seems like they are in the process of fixing this issue. Thanks for a quick response!

Used to love this place! Recently a majority of the two player games have been broken and just take your coins. Drinks should be a little cheaper if the machines don’t work.
Cheap place to play pool, pinball and arcade games. Hard to find any reason not to hang out here!

Had a fun night overall. The staff was genuinely friendly, drinks were solid, and having basketball there definitely helped. That said, the game selection feels pretty limited compared to what this place could be.
If you really want to level this bar up, installing Killer Queen and Tapper would change the energy instantly. Killer Queen creates a crowd and keeps people engaged for long stretches — it’s competitive, social, and perfect for an arcade bar environment. Tapper is a classic that fits the bar theme perfectly and would get a ton of play.
You’ve already got the vibe and the team. A couple of stronger multiplayer staples would turn this from a good hang into a destination.

I opened a Tab and had to leave my ID and Debit Card behind the Counter to do so. Days later my card was ran for several transactions that were unauthorized totally over $250.
Besides that the games are cheap and old, the drinks were not made well and I noticed the bartenders never washing their hands after handling multiple items and then making customers drinks.
