We were looking to grab lunch and Kill a little time and this was the most amazing place to stumble upon! We walked in and Johnny greeted us enthusiastically. We got their Chick-fil-A pizza special and the hot honey pepperoni bacon flatbread and both were absolutely phenomenal! Love the pinball the games in the whole vibe of the place but one of my favorite parts other than the amazing service was the fact that my son kicked my butt I Mortal Kombat and I kicked my daughter‘s rear in guitar hero on the retro game set ups they have for free in the front room. We had a blast and can’t wait to come back!

this place is such a great place to come stop for a bite and play some good games. The owner was so nice, as soon as we walked in he greeted us and made us feel welcome. We ordered 2 things from their menu, the chic-fil-a pizza and the hot honey pepperoni pizza but as a flatbread. The food was quick to come out, and after getting our food johnny was kind enough to check on us made sure everything was good, which it was. IT WAS PHENOMENAL!! If you’re looking for a great place to stop by and hang out, this would be the one that I would suggest here in Saint Pete. We will be coming back here!!

I have been wanting to check out this place for a while but I live in NPR so I was very glad that I have business in St. Pete so I jumped on my chance to stop by. This place was such a vibe and gave me so much joy! All of the old-school games brought back so much nostalgia and had such a good time that I lost track of time lol. So much fun and I look forward to returning with friends.

My favorite spot to wander in while downtown, whether for a beer or just to enjoy some games! All the bartenders are nice as ever, and Johnny always makes a point to make us all feel welcome. Special mention to the back area with all the pinball machines and arcade cabinets, straight out of my childhood nostalgia. You guys rock!

This was the first stop for the beginning of a date night on the town. This bar is literally, “if nostalgia was a place”. I thoroughly enjoyed beating my boyfriend in mario kart and playing several other games that were completely free. I really enjoyed myself and will back coming back soon!

Last Wednesday night I stormed into Right Around the Corner in downtown St. Pete like a caffeinated kid on summer break with a pocket full of quarters and unfinished business. You know that heart-thumping pulse when the attract screen blinks, coins clink, and your fingers twitch before the first level even loads?
That’s this place in full force.
From the moment I stepped inside, I swear I heard that legendary Mario jump echo bouncing off the walls. Neon lights, pixel glow, and the rhythmic click-clack of buttons all around; it felt like I had just respawned inside a living, breathing game cartridge that Tiffani Amber Thiessen was blowing on right before sliding it into the Nintendo.
My crew and I made a beeline for the bar. They rotate their local craft brews like a secret level menu, and I swear each tap feels like a new unlockable power-up. The bartender Mandy handed me this electric-blue pint that looked straight out of a Zelda potion shop; instant +50 health. Fueled up, I drifted toward the back where the real chaos lives: the arcade.
Darts. Pinball. Air hockey.
A couple of consoles for head-to-head combat. The air was buzzing like an overworked pinball machine. We jumped into Super Mario Bros. 3, slamming buttons like it was 1992 and my older brother Jesse just told me I’d “never beat the fortress.”
Spoiler alert: I did. And I can ever get further than Bald Bull in the first go, so go suck it Jesse.
Halfway through my brew, I saw it. Glorious. Unexpected. The on-screen announcement that changes everything: PIZZA. Not the frozen “microwave and pray” kind. Real, bubbling, hot-out-of-the-oven, “press start and stay awhile” pizza flatbreads. My brain hit full Mario power-up mode instantly. No more mid-game food runs; this was the ultimate side quest unlocked. I could stay. I could drink. I could eat.
I could stay a kid again for as long as I wanted. (Or at least until closing time.)
First up, the Hot Honey Bacon Pepperoni. This thing didn’t just arrive; it attacked. One bite and it was like Bowser exhaled a fireball straight into my taste buds. (Kinky!) That honey lullabies you in like a friendly Goomba at the start of World 1-1, and then BAM; heat level spikes and you’re dodging fireballs in the castle. The bacon? Crispy, smoky, chaotic good. Like my D’n’d character.
Every bite felt like snagging a hidden 1-Up. It’s sweet, spicy, and absolutely unhinged in the best possible way.
Then came the Buff Chick (and no, I don’t mean Samus Aran; though she’d definitely eat this while flexing in her armor). This beauty tastes like it was engineered by Mega Man himself, which is fitting because I’ve just nicknamed the owner Johnny Mega Man from now on.
Sharp, balanced, heroic. Juicy chicken, creamy sauce, and just the right kick to make you feel like you’ve charged your blaster and cleared the level. If the Hot Honey is the boss battle, Buff Chick is the precision victory lap you take while shredding a round of Mario Kart on the big screen.
After that, the night just went full tilt. Pinball lights flashing. Buttons clacking. Laughter bouncing off every wall. We all locked in the same rhythm; half nostalgia, half celebration, half rediscovery of that pure joy we all forgot we had back when Saturday mornings meant cereal and Game Genie codes.
The beers kept flowing, the pizza kept calling, and my grin didn’t fade once.
By closing time, I stumbled out into the night with that glowing “Game Over” screen humming in my head; but it didn’t feel like an ending. More like a respawn timer counting down to my next visit.
My cursor awaits over the “Continue” button. (You know, because they have a different pizza each month.)
In summary:
Hot Honey Bacon Pepperoni: Bowser-tier beast.
Buff Chick: Mega Man precision strike.
Right Around the Corner: Pure 8-bit magic with a craft beer buzz.
If you grew up with a controller in your hands and dreams of finding a place that still feels like Level 1 of your favorite game, this is it.
Player 1, ready. Press Start. Go.

I was in town for the weekend and I love an arcade bar and this spot exceeded all expectations. The staff was amazing and so accommodating. And I love pinball and darts and N64 games so it was all a vibe. Can’t wait to come back!

Live in Tampa Palms and had to venture out of my world to the beach for life escape and fun ofc. This is my first night stop in St. Pete solo at happy, all accepting vibes. BUT. Omgggggg ~ the food, youthful fun vibe; impeccable, kind and sincere service will leave you wanting to hang here more. Longer. I’ll be back down FFS. As a Sicilian pizza (not snob but finicky), authentic and imported ingredient loving girl, it’s work to impress and lure me back. Done done all boxes checked they won’t disappoint. Plus retro games and fire music (mostly), come support! I refuse chain attendance. Locals will always have my support but the amaze balls ones pullllll me back broke or not. Come!!
