Prepare to geek out at this temple to beer and vintage arcade games: first at the 35 classic quarter machines (Donkey Kong, Galaga, Contra), then at the ever-evolving beer selection. Opened in 2004, this is the original location of the Barcade franchise that has since expanded to include bars in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. The tap list changes regularly, but on a recent visit, included craft beers like Abita Honey Grapefruit Lager, Two Roads Worker’s Comp Saison and Kelso Carollgaarden Wit. Drop by happy hour (Monday through Thursday from 4–7pm and Friday from 2–7pm) for $1 off all beer, wine and well drinks.
