Free Play Bar Arcade: what do users think?
Angelina Rodriguez: The bartenders were very nice but everyone else that worked there was an a**hole. In a state where Marijuana is legalized, they denied re entry for patrons that left their property to respectfully self medicate and simply said “you can’t come in and out as you please. We know what you did and we don’t need or want your money.” My family and I spent a few hundred dollars that night and we will NEVER be returning, since they don’t need or want the money. Also the place is huge but only so they can jam pack it with as many people as possible but you’ll have to wait FOREVER to play any games.
Corey Lehman: No guitar hero arcade cabinet! When I see that here I'll revisit my review.
Chloe Cook: Great games, good drinks!
Scott Jordan: Good not great. My first time here was to do a family event - that is $40 up front to walk through the door, which if we could actually get time on games might be worth the cost. Sadly the bar was overcrowed and overrun with families, who are best I can tell using this for impromptu birthday parties on the cheap. I say impromptu, because there are no dedicated spaces to actually set up and conduct a birthday party, so all of the tables were taken, all of the sit down video games were used as tables to house cupcakes and cakes that people brought in. Most of the smaller kids appeared to be completely unsupervised, and trying to get to a game was a challenge as people would just park themselves at a game and continue the free play well past their turn. Pinball machines were full w/ no openings. The three (small) skeeball games were also occupied the entire time by the same people. Airhockey had the same 4 kids parked on it for the entire hour and a half we remained in the space, and most of the time they were so violently smashing the puck it went flying into people nearby. Bar was ok - good selection of beer and drinks. Pizza (only option for food) was terrible - thin flatbread slapped together. Edible, but by far not good. I think the concept is good for a an adult-only bar, but opening up to families without any regard of the amount of people they let through the door, there is little point to allow people in if there is no capacity for those people to actually be able to sit or partake in the games. Short of not doing free play on the games, which would require families and children to actually pay for the time they spend on the games (like a prepaid card that can be tapped to run the games), I don't know how you regulate things to allow for the patrons coming through the door to actually make use of the space. I think there definitely needs to be something to limit capacity, both for the enjoyment of those inside, but also for the sheer safety of those inside - I honestly would be fearful if there was an emergency, how that crowd would actually safely leave the space. And while there was a stair lift for someone in a wheelchair, if needed, if someone in a wheelchair actually managed to get to the floor, there is no way at all they would be able to move around with the amount of people in the space. Certainly is not enough clearance between the rows of games. I will say that staff was not rude, they were nice at the door, nice at the bar, most of the games did seem to be functioning (I saw one pinball down, one game next to air hockey was down, three video games down). The idea seems fun, the execution, at least as far as family events was far from idea, and allowing people to walk in and use this as personal party spaces is just a poor decision. Glad I went once, but I honestly don't think I would go again given the experience.
James Sovchuk: Fun place. They have a great selection of games.
Lupes: $7 at the door ($10 on weekends) all the games are free. Full bar, good vibes, outdoor lounge with stage, haven't seen a band yet but I hear they are in the market.
Tori Arvisais: Recommended by a friend while I was in the area as I'm a pretty big arcade head, not disappointed. Great selection of classic arcades, all working order and crisp and snappy. Atmosphere was fantastic, felt like 90s vibes for adults. Decent selection of pinball cabinets. If you have $7 to burn I highly suggest stopping in. The bartender was very chill, too.~~Extra~~Games I remember if looking for something specificRhythm games:Pump it up pro - no card scan, no access to full menu (speed mod etc) at the time I played, pads in great condition otherwiseDDR Extreme - screen a bit dim, no other issues, pad in great condition, marvelous window is onSDVX - Right knob a little sus, great otherwiseChunitha - No issuesJubeat - Looked ok, didn't playPinball:Guns and Roses - OOC/non-operationalScared Stiff - Ball sticks quite a bit in upper track, have to shake pretty hard to release it a few timesLord of the Rings - Flippers don't match, not really an issue thoughTerminatorRocky and BullwinkleOutrunWho DunnitFunhouseGhostbustersAttack from MarsPirates of the CaribbeanAddams FamilyClassics:BurgertimeSinistarGalagaGalaxianToobin'Dig-dugJoustRobotronSuper Mario Bros 3Snes vision with super tennis, super Mario world, F-zeroCastlevaniaDragon quest - very quiet, screen dim, fun though!Gauntlet Dark LegacyX-Men (4 players not 6)4-p Pac-ManPac-Man cocktail tableArkanoid cocktail tableNBA Jam (Yessss!!)Skee-ballFighting:Tekken 3Tekken 5Mortal KombatMortal Kombat IIStreet Fighter II: World ChampionshipKiller InstinctRacing:2 Arctic Thunder (right cab steering kinda bad)2 fast n furious super cars (I think)2 Hydro Thunder4 Cruisin USACrazy TaxiShooters:Jurassic ParkPhysical Sports games:Foosball - I didn't care for the placement of the table, made it a little hard to play how I likeHockeyThis list probably has errors and it's definitely not exhaustive, there's way more than what I've listed.I had such a good time 😊
Steven Cheek: We went here for the first time tonight. I wasn't expecting much for $7. I was wrong! This place is really cool. The staff were very friendly, the bathrooms were clean and we were able to play as much as we wanted. They have a lot of games! If you want to feel like a kid again, stop by this place. You will not be disappointed! We will definitely be coming back soon.
Matt Greil: It's a $10 cover to get into the bar, and you can play over 50 old school arcade games for free, yes free! No tokens at all!! Reasonable priced drinks, plus the pepperoni and cheese pizza are thin crust and are pretty good!
Dominick Peluso: I was pretty excited to find this place at first. It has a nice atmosphere and a lot of cool games. You pay a $10 cover to come in (on the weekend) and you can play all of the games for "free" once inside. They have a bar and a small outdoor area as well. If you're looking for a fun spot for a date or to hang with friends and play some air hockey or something, I think you'll like this place.But if you are interested in actually playing one of the many rhythm games this place offers (Pump It Up, Dance Dance Revolution, SDVX, Chunithum, Jubeat, etc...) you might be a little annoyed. The volume of the games is super low compared to the music they play in room (especially for the dance games). More annoyingly, the bartenders will randomly crank up the house volume whenever there is a song playing they like. You'll be right in the middle of a song on DDR or PIU and then suddenly you can't hear anything but O-AH-OH-A-OH-A-OH CA-LI-FORNIA GIRLS WE'RE UNFORGETTABLE. For any of the "normal" arcade games, it doesn't really matter much that you can't hear but for a music game it's kind of fundamental to the gameplay. There is a gentlemen who maintains the machines who will turn up the volume of a game to compensate, but what often happens is he'll turn up DDR because people are playing it and then it overpowers the PIU that's right next to it. There is a problem with the balance of sound between the rhythm games competing with the venue's music because the venue's music volume *keeps changing*. So, it's not a great spot for rhythm games IMO. Finally, the Pump It Up they have has an intermittent I/O problem where all button input will randomly freeze for 10-15 seconds from time to time. If you experience this, there's nothing you can do. Come back to the machine in like 20 minutes and try again. It seems to go through some cycles of it for a while. The DDR machine will also sometimes crash at the beginning of a song, usually on the extra stage, causing you to fail.Also, they won't let you leave once you have paid the cover and they are very strict about it. I found myself there for the first time with no cash (you can pay to enter with a card) but I couldn't leave my coat in the coat check because it's cash-only. They wouldn't let me leave for even a minute to put my coat in my car.
Radio OfHorror: Awesome location in Worcester much bigger space and more parking than Providence
Alex Nevers: excellent value, all machines were working and in great condition. great decor and vibe inside!
P Ekberg: Great collection of classic arcade games ranging from Moon Patrol to Street Fighter III: 3rd strike, a nice pinball selection, and skee ball for a reasonable cover charge. There's no quiet corner to be found, so not the place for catching up with friends but definitely the place to remind them you remember all the fatalities in Mortal Kombat 3.
Jason Fortin: Greeters at the door were very pleasant and welcoming. It is a great place to go to kill an hour. The only issue I had was limited seating to take a break to eat some pizza.
Sharon Guidaboni: Great nostalgic games and atmosphere. Friendly staff. Rainbow Road 🌈 cocktail was delicious!
Spencer Thomas: This I Nirvana!!
Isaac: This place was awesome! I’m worried about rating it highly since it wasn’t completely overrun with people when we went—but I can’t not, it was just so great! We went for the DDR but stayed for the everything! The best air hockey table I’ve ever played on—it’s huge and the metal bumpers make the most satisfying “ding” every time you hit them. It’s one of 3 air hockey tables they have available, the other two being different varieties and both accommodating 4 players. My friend and I were able to play the X-men arcade game through completion without spending 10+ bucks to keep bringing us back every time we died. They have a lean-racing bike game, which was super nostalgic. They have some ski ball (or ice ball? Don’t remember the specific brand) which were a bit worse for wear, but still very playable and fun. An awesome pinball collection you can endlessly appreciate, as it like all the other games, was free to play. Tons of other arcade games we ran out of time to play—not that they were bogged behind long queues. Drinks were about the same rate you’d find at another establishment, obviously more expensive than if you’d had them at home, but not to an excessive degree. Highly recommend. Loads of fun. 21+ only as it’s a bar/cade.
Molly Collimore: Bar and arcade itself were very fun, but strange experience at the door. Bouncer asked to check my bag which was fine in itself but had an issue with me bringing in my needed medication. It was in the original pill bottle which I have always thought was the way to do it, but bouncer recommended next time I put one in a zip lock bag and sneak it in my pocket. Stated he wasn’t a doctor so I could have put anything in the pill bottle apparently? He then grabbed the bottle and said for this time it could stay at the host stand and I could “come get some if I needed it” which I objected to. I’m not comfortable leaving my medication with a random host, especially as I have a limited supply…. Finally he said that just for this time I could bring it in with me, but to use the zip lock bag method next time. He was really nice about it, but that is such a dumb (and possibly illegal?) policy. How are you going to not let people bring in medication, especially in original bottles? I feel like staff might need some training or clarification on their policies. Or management needs to change that policy. Word of warning for anyone who needs to bring medication with them!Also, to clarify, this was Meclizine that I need for sudden onset vertigo episodes. It’s not like it was an opioid or pain med or something.
Ismael Nowick: Fun place
Luca Webb: They got rid of some of their best pinball machines and the ones they do still have are all in poor condition. Many other games were in various states of malfunction including the air hockey tables. Music was so incredibly loud that I couldn’t hear the games I was playing much less talk to anyone around me. Feels more like an overpacked chucky cheese with a police detail than a place for adults to socialize and enjoy themselves. We were there for 30 mins and it felt like a total waste of 20 bucks.
Madi Harris: Hosted our sons birthday here. What an amazing day! Owner, Anthony, was so friendly and kind to our friends and family that attended. Place is packed with games all in great condition. Very spacious and clean! Will definitely be back again :)
