Every time I come to Quarter Up, I know I'm in for a few hours of fun. The games are all classics, with a ton of pinball machines as well as old school arcade favorites, and everything is kept in peak working order. The beer list is solid, with a number of both draft options and tall boy cans, and the cocktails seem expertly prepared as well. The food is better than expected - mostly standard bar bites - and I was surprised to learn how much of it they make in-house. The hot dogs are a steal - great price for a big dog loaded with toppings. And if you're not a fan of games, plop down at the bar, watch some sports, and people watch. I can't wait to go back!
Great date night spot. The food was delicious! Small/ snacky portions, but prices were very reasonable. Awesome atmosphere! The bartender forgot to fire our order, but it gave us more time to game. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. Will definitely be back!
Great priced drinks. Food is pretty good, and the service and games are wonderful. Check it out!
I just want to make you aware of a situation that happened to me at this establishment. I stopped after work with my father. I personally had 3 pints of head hunter at $5 each and he had 2 troegs ipas at $6.25 each. Our check was $29.86 approximately. My dad paid with a $50 bill, because that was all he had. He received $9 and change back. When I inquired about the misstep, we both ended up getting cussed out and told that we clearly need $10 more than he does as he’s throwing it at me after zero logical conversation. He then proceeeds to tell me I’m too druk to understand, starts slamming things around being dramatic. It was a simple question that could be investigated and fixed by reprinting the check and counting a drawer. No one was accusing anyone of anything evil, it was a clerical question. I count my money just like you do. I hope to GOD he doesn’t treat any of your other guests this way or you won’t be in business.
this happened near close on 5/15/25
Amazing bartenders amazing environment, cheap and great, 10 out of 10
Would give it zero stars if I could. Standing at a half empty bar with 2 bartenders and can’t get any drinks. Not the first time this has happened which is the only reason for the review. Want to like this place for the great beer selection, but it’s near impossible to get one to drink.
Staff was friendly and drinks were decent. Don’t always love having to pay for games but should have expected it. Wish there was a bit more games but for the space and area it was not bad. Had fun, just wouldn’t be visiting again
Trevor is the nicest, friendliest bartender you will ever meet!
Great beer selection and pretty good bar food the sweet potato chips are awesome they have about a dozen of pinball machines which is a lot of fun.

Cool place with a great vibe. Fun playing pinball and arcade games. Reasonable prices.
Quarter Up has a selection of games, a nice diverse menu that goes beyond bar food. We have always had great service and food. However, they have a male bartender, who gets extremely intoxicated at the bar when he isn't working. . He accosted my brother ( a regular, and I would hope valued customer), both verbally and physically a few weeks back and yet continues to work there and over indulge and become beligerent after his shift. Not a comfortable vibe.
During the physical confrontation, *smacked my brother's hat off of his head, unprovoked), off the clock bartender was restrained by another patron and employee but managed to shake them off and chase my brothers car out of the parking lot, fists pounding on the exterior. I have spoke to a few customers that were both shocked and scared.
I am guessing they will not be back either. My brother decided not to get the police involved, as he was trying to leave in order to de-escalate the situation.
The female owner watched this take place from the outside patio and to my knowledge, did NOTHING. She has not reached out to see if everyone was ok. She appeared HIGHLY intoxicated as well, which is pretty normal on any given night I have been there.
This is an establishment that I have frequented (as many of my friends do/did), and proudly supported as a local business in the past. No more. I do not feel safe going back, as the person who accosted my brother knows I am his sister. HUGE liability for the owners. Terrible business practices. I feel badly for the other employees as I can see the business really looks empty.

The atmosphere is great. One of the best gin and tonics. But there were 5 people here total, and it took an hour to get my sushi rolls, on a Tuesday. If it was a weekend, or busy, would totally understand. But the bar is empty ?
