EightyOne Arcade Bar is a popular entertainment destination that caters to adults over 21. The arcade features a wide range of games, including vintage and new titles. While the vintage games still accept quarters, the newer games require a reloadable game card, which can be confusing for some customers. Despite occasional inconsistencies in staff communication, the arcade is a gem in the Sioux Empire, offering a great mix of games, friendly staff, and an attached pizzeria serving delicious food. It's a great spot to spend an evening or even make a day-trip getaway.
The arcade offers a unique experience, with a youngish crowd and a nice bar. Customers can enjoy a variety of classic arcade games, pinball machines, and action games like Rambo, Mario Kart, and Dance Dance Revolution. For $5, visitors receive a card that can be used to play the games, with most costing around 25 points (a quarter) per play, just like the old days.
The venue is located in the historic Carpenter building, which adds to the overall aesthetic appeal. Customers have praised the friendly staff and the reasonably-priced barcade experience, making it a popular destination for those with a nerdy side.
