Headquarters Beercade Nashville

This place wins for two reason:1 - free game play before 9 PM on week nights. Come on. Who doesn't love a good arcade throwback sesh?2 - the absolutely COMMITMENT to their Stranger Things pop up. I know you can't experience that year round, but you can still visit, buy drinks, and spend your money on the games to keep them primed and ready to go all out for future Halloweens!This place has a cool vibe and is great to hang out in even without the Halloween theme. They feature local beers and have a decent bar menu. If you're downtown, it's a fun way to spend a few hours (trust me, you'll wish you had more time to hang out no matter how much time you planned to spend). It's a great spot in between all the other walking around and museums in downtown - even if your whole group does want to play games, there is a lounge area with couches both up and downstairs, so even if your dogs are howling and you just want to post up with a beer for a few minutes, this is the spot.

Our family of 5 (my husband, and I and our 3 daughters) had a great time here playing arcade games, taking photos and having drinks in December on our trip to Nashville. The place was decorated so nicely for Christmas. We loved the entire vibe! We loved playing Ms. Pac Man, Tetris, Galaga and pinball! We went around 4 pm and the place was pretty empty - only 2 other people, so it was perfect for getting to play the games we wanted to play without any wait. Such a great idea for a bar! We will definitely be back next time we visit Nashville!

Nashville's best little hangout for arcade nerds of the 70's, 80's & 90's! Full service bar with a variety of craft brews on tap, play games for free while drinking. Ms. Pac-Man, Centipede, Frogger, Asteroids, Tapper, Tetris, Donkey Kong, Double Dragon, Mortal Kombat, and many more arcade games; Skee-ball, hoops and several pinball machines. Cool bartenders. Must visit! Just off the strip, a couple minutes' walk from Hard Rock Café.

The best bar in Nashville, hands down! Right off the main strip so less busy than most bars. The games are free to play and the atmosphere and decor are AWESOME. It is Stranger Things themed, which everyone loves! Drinks are reasonably priced too. They need to open one up here in Clearwater FL, please!!

This place is awesome if you love playing old pinball and video games! We went on a Wednesday and it was all to ourselves. My wife and I had a blast!

Despite having some attractive yet uncommon menu items, the food that I have eaten each time is totally acceptable. I have never eaten anything there that strayed too far from expectations. That being said, we go there for the arcade games which are all free providing you eat or drink. The only games that aren't free are the basketball and skee ball. $1 a piece I believe. It is a good time. I just wouldn't plan for it to be a main meal.

Great bartenders, excellent food and interesting drinks! I went here with a friend, and we had a lot of fun playing the arcade games which are mostly free to play. I love the atmosphere and the murals on the wall.

Beer and Ambiance are great, food is ok (but a bit slow) . The arcade and pinballs make it amazing ( they are free to play!). Love it!

This place was awesome! It’s tucked away off Broadway but it wasn’t crowded at all so there was never a wait to play whatever game we wanted! The drinks were a little bit expensive, but almost all the games were free to play so it’s worth it in my opinion!

So this is off Broadway it was not crowded at all. They had awesome arcades, some were classics and a wall of cd's that looked so cool. We got a lemon drop shot and probably one of the best I have ever had. Bartender was great. Music was rap and not my style more of a rock and roll girl. But still had fun. They had a trivia night I missed but would have loved it. Would visit again just didn't love music that night.

I was excited to check this place out. It seems to be a good place to hang out and play vintage games. But please DO NOT expect to get any service AT ALL. Went in there and spent over 15 minutes trying to get a drink when there were only about 10 people in this place. It was mid-day. The bartender Jason is an absolute a-hole. He would acknowledge you were there, but wouldn't even come over, as he was too busy just hanging out with the 6 people that were there. After asking for a drink, he just looked over and smile. After 15 minutes (too long I know) I left. Absolutely the worst experience ever. There are SO many good places on lower Broadway to spend your hard earned money. This aint one of them.

Cool place to feel like a kid again, between the old school video games and the nostalgic music it was a great time! Great photo opps. at their cassette wall and floppy disk mural. Such stable childhood items repurposed as decor !! Also had a great mix of cocktails, beer and wine.Only complaints I had - some of the games weren't working or plugged in - and skee ball had no balls !

Cool air conditioning, cold local beer on tap, great music, and a ton of pinball machines. Perfect for a local date night.

We stopped here as part of our peddle bus tour. It was such a vibe! I absolutely loved the aesthetic of the place. The arcade games, books hanging from the ceiling, the plants... And the oreo shots were the bomb!

This place has great games to play while you are there and plenty of seating. You can choose to sit on the upper or lower level of the restaurant. Our party had quite a few of the small amount of food that was offered there and the burger seemed to be the best. Lastly our bartender was great and made the night even better.
