Great chill spot, great pub food and pizza, and the drinks menu and beer taps are outstanding. Awesome selection of pinball machines, all in top condition. Anytime I am in the area, I will definitely swing by 1 Up...
Roll your dice for a d20.
This place was fantastic. Awesome vibes for any kind of gamer. Many retro consoles, including Nintendo 64, Gamecube, SNES and Switch, PS5, Sega Genesis, as well as a few arcade games and a bunch of pinball machines. On top of that, I the pizza blew my expectations away (they weren't very high). It was really really good, and I highly recommend it as well as this lounge. Note it costs $2 to change the games in the systems, which is a bit unfortunate, but there are many great options for games. They also had a bunch of fun themed drinks.
I love this place and I will be here constantly. For rhythm gamers it is a beautiful beautiful place. The two WACCA machines are so awesome, unfortunately one is wayyyy quieter than the other, if y’all could reconfigure them you would have my whole heart. And also maybe consider getting chuunithm? I saw lots of rhythm game people, and chuunithm would bring in a whole new group…
I from Hawaii and let me start by saying that I’m a huge gamer at heart and coming to this place was a full experience of nostalgia. They had everything from A-to-Z and I was quite impressed. Aside from that the service is more than immaculate. At first I got this blonde haired girl that was super sweet and unfortunately, I did not grab her name but after her, I got Micah who was absolutely phenomenal in every way possible. Micah even let us in on they’re own coffee, concoction with chocolate and let me tell you right now, That was better than anything else that I had there tonight. Well, actually the gummy bear drink was pretty good, but Micah‘s drink absolutely topped it. The staff makes the atmosphere what it is, and I’m absolutely grateful to even stumble upon this place. The way that our Bartender made us feel is beyond what exceptional service actually means and that is extremely appreciated. I’m far away from home, but they made me feel like I wasn’t. ❤️
It’s very cool place open pretty late and have all kinds of pinball machines and keep in mind if you get tired of playing pinball there’s a massage place that’s open across the hallway
Such a fun and unique arcade. It’s like Ruckus Room’s older, grittier sister. There’s old school games and consoles mixed in with some newer stuff. Their food menu is small but mighty and easy for snacking in between playing. Large selection of grown up drinks and non-alcoholic drinks as well. The lady bartender is so sweet and helpful!
Second time I went I took my teen daughter and her friend. I paid the $10 cover for each of them (which included one non-alcoholic beverage each). I wasn’t planning to play but then they wanted me to play Overcooked for one round, so I did and completely forgot until later that I didn’t pay the $10 cover for myself so I wasn’t supposed to be playing anything. I also played Super Mario 2 for a brief moment to show my daughter’s friend how😫. I’m grateful the super chill gal bartending didn’t say anything. I still feel guilty lol!
Always have a great time here especially on Saturdays for cosplay nights!
Great place!
This bar is so fun! The variety of games is amazing and the staff are all lovely and attentive. The drinks menu is pretty big and a lot of fun themeing, even if the drinks can be a little sugary. The console games are all free to play and the cabinets are a normal, non-inflated play price

It was a great time played game cube and n64 with friends.
We had pizza and corn dogs.
Bartender was incredible.
Seemed like she had no support from the anime character or homeless guy in the back.
I’d come back.
10/10 because the lady bartender was working her ass off.
Edit w/ Reply: the homeless looking guy had big hair and a lanyard. The anime guy was dressed like he was in an anime.
They each helped the lady bartender with the TV. They didn’t help make drinks or food or clean glasses.
Got a not so kid friendly vibe here. Felt unwelcome.
I blessed my presence here one time. It was great. Kate was great and kind hearted server. 10/10 vibes - great for introverts didn’t feel judged doing my thing. Favorite bar in Bellingham
Just a great place, anyone who's a gamer or into pinball will appreciate this place. Friendly staff, great drinks, had a blast with my wife.
Wowowowow Chloe and Kate were exceptional.they both made sure that their customer left satisfied 🙀
