DAMN! Look at the legs on Ms. Pacman! That's the sexiest...yellow ball...thing I've seen in a long time.
TheUnknownX
Does it have Metal Slug?
acannicc
It's in Quebec city and is called Le MacFly. Arcades are free also! The barman has the weirdest face tattoos but not much tattoo elsewhere
Iamtherhymenocerous

There is also a place called Barcadia in Dallas just like this. Plus - giant Jenga. Worth checking out fellow DFW peeps.

Half price food on Mondays, fyi.

That's cool, google ground zero in Portland Oregon.

Ishwish
Yes I do! lol .-. long day was long.

lraskie
This one is down by the Hessen Haus and The Science Center.
OneWickedJig
Didn't know there was one there! You might see me there saturday night (;
f16crewchief
There's a cool one in Las Vegas called Insert Coins. The TV's at the bar are hooked to consoles.
tootiredtocare
Sweet! I can get drunk and play a bunch of old arcade games that are fun for like 5 minutes. Oh what a day!
NovaKobra
We have a couple of these in Grand Rapids, MI. The Pyramid Scheme has more machines than Stella's, but Stella's has more variety.
MrStark1995
The first place I thought of when I saw these photos. I go to Kendall College and I am doing an ad campaign for The Pyramid Scheme right now
NovaKobra
Wah, no way! That's super badass. When will it be up? I want to check it out when it's done. :]
MrsBananaGrabber
nothing beats Ground Kontrol in Portland, OR.
loopdeedoo
YES! Two stories of games. <3

Theres a Beercade in Omaha, NE. Awesome place! Quarter plays on everything
Justwarlockthings

Omaha is the 42nd largest city in the nation. But it has that small town feel to it.

Oh yeah the Macfly is awesome. Definitely worth going if you are in QC.

C'est situé a quel endroit à Québec? Est-ce nouveau?

I swear the Stop Podcasting Yourself guys talked about this place a while back

There's one in Sioux Falls, SoDak! Haven't been yet...
WizardLizard123
Well then, looks like I'm going to Quebec

Ooo... good eye! Wonder if it is in Quebec.
Iamnotacreativeman
Columbus, Ohio apparently
Tver937
That's 16-bit you're talking about. And it's way cooler than this.
AcadianBacon
I figured it was somewhere here in Canada after seeing the 'Ouvert' sign. c:
PoutineFoodOfTheGods
Yeaaah, Macfly ! They have a great house gin tonic and serve grilled cheese too :)
PoutineFoodOfTheGods
Plus all the arcades are free ✌️
wessyfbaby
Quebec City indeed.
TheColonelCustard
Omg i live in quebec city! whats this place called!?
thegr3Ek
I frequent Emporium Arcade in Chicago, there's nothing like slamming back some IPAs while kicking your friend's ass in Mortal Kombat
QueefMcGee
And slamming your friends backdoor after!? Amirite?
BeckyWithTheToeHair
I too frequent Emporium. ( ¬_¬ ) Someone has been on MK every time I stop in. And they were drinking IPA... http://imgur.com/m7rhVze
Tver937
What about HQ? The games are free.
AtomicPengWIN
I dont get how people enjoy IPA's. It sure as hell isn't for the taste that's for sure.
thegr3Ek
It is though. Acquired taste, just like anything- wine, black coffee, etc.
AtomicPengWIN
Blech. It's waaaaaay too hoppy for my liking.
analjarvisandhisbandofbutlers
IPA's are the best tasting beers by far. Don't know what IPA's yo've had, but when you get a taste, most lagers and light ales don't cut it.
Osgar
We've got a place like it in Columbus, OH. http://16-bitbar.com/ - awesome, and the games are set to free-play.
LawfulWaffle
A solid selection of games, too. One of my favorite hang-outs in Cbus.
mighteee
16-bit and Dirty Franks are a great way to spend ALL OF YOUR PRECIOUS FREE TIME AND DOLLARS
trevstomp
Haven't had a change to get to this one yet, but great to see other ohio Imgurians!
CheeseburgerDreams
Just had a date there last week! Soo freaking sweet and right next door to Dirty Franks!
somespazzoid
Yeah, fucking great place. I'm going to have to go back soon.

I love 16-bit and Dirty Franks!

That's a date night in my house.

Don't get me started, their Sriracha slaw! I'd get a tattoo of it if I were prone to bad decisions and no sense of regret!
SPAC3QUEEN
I work at the one in Lakewood.
ktaras1
I went opening day. It was packed. Are you a bartender then? I don't remember seeing dudes on the floor. (1/2)
ktaras1
How's the money? I can imagine people just wanting to play the free games and not be bothered to order a drink. (2/2)
frickfrickfrick
I went there opening weekend, such a diff atmosphere than other bars, great beer selection. Definitely going again when its not as bonkers.
ktaras1
We were there the same night then.
dishonored2342
nice i was there like a month ago. probably gonna go back either this weekend of next weekend
SPAC3QUEEN
This Saturday is going to be my last shift. I have a day job and this was just to see if I'd enjoy a part time gig. Ill be around though!
hakdragon
I've yet to go to the one in Columbus, but I've been to the one in Lakewood a few times. It's nice, but get's packed pretty quickly.
mighteee
Come to Columbus, get the Moscow Mule called the 'Dolph Lundgren'. It's awesome.
Osgar
From a business perspective, best problem a bar can have. From a customer perspective - damnit, when's it my turn to play turtles in time?!
SPAC3QUEEN
I probably carded you!
TheJiggy
The Lakewood one does get packed quickly, especially Fridays and Saturdays. Still a fun place to chill and drink and play! haha
SPAC3QUEEN
I probably carded you!
TheJiggy
haha you probably did! On a couple occasions too!
SPAC3QUEEN
Well I mean, I card everyone. But yea - im the short chick with blue/blond/pink/purple/brown hair at the door.

You had one chance to say 'barcade' OP and you fucking missed it. For shame.
LupusYonderboy
There are two places like this in towns that I've lived in (NYC & NOLA), one called Barcade and the other named Barcadia.

JordanBFrye
They opened one here in Cookeville earlier this year. Coliseum Gaming Pub. I'll have to check out Knoxville's next time I'm in town.

'Barcade' is a real term though. It describes any arcade/bar combination.

Saying Headquarters is awesome doesn't even do it justice. Get drunk, play Mortal Kombat, stumble to Cheesies. That's a helluva night.
IfmynameisDICKdoesthatmakemeNSFW
Oh yeah. Or Blaze Pizza. But Cheesies is open late.
WalterWhiteWalker
Is Blaze really good? I got off at the Redline there everyday, but I've never stopped in. Hit up CBA tooo much though.
IfmynameisDICKdoesthatmakemeNSFW
CBA is dope but dude. Trust me. Get to Blaze as soon as humanly possible. 11" for $7.99 as many goddamn toppings as you want. Super dope.

As someone who moved from Chicago (Lakeview) because he couldn't find a job, this made me sad. And hungry for Cheesies.
