Props to Barcade for being one of few places in Brooklyn where I can perfectly marry the games of my youth with the drinking privileges of adulthood. With rows of vintage quarter games, sporting colorful joysticks and absurdly simple ‘kick’ and ‘punch’ buttons, Barcade is a time warp of sorts, allowing grown men and women to rediscover a love affair with Atari and Street Fighter. I am not so prideful that I wouldn’t admit to spending many nights trying to defeat the high scores on Tetris, with plenty of cheap well drinks fueling me through the more intense levels. A decent selection of beers are on tap (including one hard cider that tasted just like fizzy apple juice, just the way I like it) are made all the more attractive by the $1 off happy hour prices and simple bar snacks are available, though be forewarned – oily potato chip fingers present a slip risk when trying to furiously tap the button that pulls a character’s special hadouken move.
Recent trips have revealed some new developments, such as a token system (so no more using the change machines for your next day’s trip to the laundromat) and a number of new games, such as Star Wars and a multi-player touchscreen PacMan game. Some nights are busier than others, which might mean queueing up for your game of choice, but there are plenty of other things to occupy your wait time. Besides tons of other games, there are large, rustic picnic-style tables scattered throughout the bar where you can strategize with your playmate about how to finally defeat the enemies on Final Fight, and even a trip to the bathroom promises ample entertainment as you read the hundreds of handwritten messages left behind in the stall (or maybe that’s just the women’s room).
Even when it’s crowded, Barcade is a guaranteed good time for anyone who tires of the typical bar scene and it’s a great place for anyone – from singles to first dates to married couples (in fact, I’ve made trips out to Barcade during every stage of life, enjoying myself thoroughly every time).

Matty the magnificent was our bartender for our duration of 2 hours. Very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu and policies from her location. I had a ball enjoying the games and the small banter between us. Pleae give her at least a 1 dollar raise lol. The best bartender in the world 5 stars.

Barcade is such a fun spot! The atmosphere is amazing — great music, awesome energy, and a perfect mix of classic arcade games and good drinks. The staff really make the experience, especially Maddie — she was the absolute sweetest! Super friendly, helpful, and made sure everyone was having a great time. You can tell she genuinely enjoys her job and it shows. Whether you’re going for the games, the vibe, or just to relax with friends, this place never disappoints. Definitely one of my favorite hangouts in New York!

I absolutely love this bar! Every time I come to nyc it is a must. The games are so fun an inexpensive. The drinks are always great! The bartenders are THE BEST, especially the two Joes. I go to nyc maybe 3 times a year, but they always remeber me and my bf and they hook us up every time! We were just here this past Feb. for a concert and had Joe as our bartender and he is such a nice guy. I love all locations but the Brooklyn one holds a special place in my heart. Thanks for always being so great! Any time my friends go to nyc I tell them they nees to go to Barcade. <3

Barcade is always a great time. Great selection of games. They have Crazy Taxi there which I’m not gonna lie, almost made me cry because I grew up on that game. The pinball machines are great, I wish they didn’t cost 3 tokens though. They have ATMs there to pull out cash to exchange into tokens. The drinks are great and reasonably priced. Great place to hang out and play some games

The arcade games selected were great. Be aware that some might steal your tokens, but I’m sure the staff could help with that.
One bartender was more curt when asking for recommendations, but that’s New York

Good amount of vintage arcade games especially shooting and pinball. I easily spent 1.5hrs by myself with $10 in tokens. Games are at least 50c a play.
Definitely try Quick & Crash or BishiBashi with friends. Make sure to bring cash.

I haven’t tried the food, and the atmosphere would have been better for me if I was able to hear myself think or even speak, the music was just too loud for me. Other wise it’s a cool place to go if you don’t mind the loud music and don’t go on the weekend if you don’t want to be in a crowded bar.
