A great Barcade, clean, cool artwork all over, good drinks, and friendly staff. Worth a stop on the way through to party in DTR! 🏆💪😎🇺🇸

The staff were super nice and friendly. The DJ was a vibe! Nice heaters for the cold weather outside.

I love coming to this barcade and think it is one of the BEST arcade bars around. It has wonderful staff and interesting drinks. They are always getting new pinball machines and games here which makes each experience unique.
Parking: I would totally show well before 6pm as you might have to drive around a lot for parking otherwise. If you get there before 6pm you can usually get prime parking.

The pinball machines are really fun, the drinks are good. Drink specials are always a pretty good deal.

Some great pinball tables, about a dozen other arcade games, ranging from early 80s to recent years, as well as 2 skeeball lanes, a couple of the arcade basketball hoops, air hockey, and more! VERY rad place. I didn't get food, nor do I know if they serve it, but I know they serve drinks, both alcoholic and non.

Went there to kill time and it turned out to be a great decision. Drinks were amazing. Games were great. Bring cash for tokens to play. Great variety of pinball machines. Some older games were a great throw back to childhood.

Wouldn’t let in our DD who’s a month away from being 21 in, so just don’t even waste your time coming here. Far better bars in the area that accommodate
We love boxcar Bar. Our kids can play while my husband and I have 1 drink

Absolute TRASH establishment. Even the employees (props to them for calling it out) acknowledge the problems with the games, but allegedly the owner doesn't care, as a patron I can see that being true. The only reason I could see this place still being open is cause it's the only one of its kind in Raleigh. 75% of the games won't tell you how much they are.
Skeeball- save yourself the trouble, the lane has pits all throughout it. You can play longer at Chuckie Cheese than here
Air Hockey- Has large pits and some of the air holes are clogged, zero care with the table
Mario Kart- Game has a loose wheel which causes you to just spin around
Save yourself the time, money and embarrassment, drive an hour to Fayetteville and check out Stop Button. $10 flat charge, all games are free and the drinks are way cheaper. Yes Ma'am (a strong ale) here? $7, at Stop Button, $5.
As someone who loves arcade games, it's sad to see a place that doesn't care about their games, only money.

Great vibes here everytime. Although I did feel like I got spiked on mimosa Sunday one day, once i confronted the bartender about it, didn’t see him after that.

The game options are really lacking I was disappointed. The Greensboro location is definitely better.
