About Barcade

Barcade is a unique bar and arcade that offers a nostalgic gaming experience in a welcoming atmosphere. The establishment boasts a wide variety of classic gaming machines, including Crazy Taxi, Mortal Kombat, Ms. Pacman, and Galaga, as well as pinball machines. While there is a decent amount of games, some customers feel the quality isn't the best, noting that the newest games are from the late 80s, and the fighting games can be expensive. For pinball fans, it's a must-stop at 3 tokens (75c) per machine, with a fine selection of staple games, including Alice Cooper's Nightmare Castle. The bar is well-stocked, serving a range of drinks at reasonable prices, often with specials, and many find the drinks fantastic. The menu features classic bar food such as burgers, fries, wings, and mozzarella sticks, with the steak egg rolls being a notable favorite. Although the vegan burger received mixed reviews, the fries and sauces were praised. The bartenders and servers are generally friendly, providing attentive service, though there are occasional reports of less friendly staff. Despite this, Barcade remains a popular destination for its diverse game selection, enjoyable food, and affordable tokens, with many customers eager to return.
