Exactly what I was looking for - an arcade with food and drinks. Multiple options to eat and I went with the spiced burgers and their Bhangra smash. Bar upstairs where you purchase tokens and pickup the occasional drink. Lots of pinball games, taking 2-4 tokens each, and...Read More

This nostalgic barcade is hidden inside McFadden Public Market in downtown Santa Ana. Two nights in a row this ended up being our starting off point for a night out and it didn't disappoint. They have an assortment of games to choose from and a fun...Read More

I've been going to MC since 2020. I really enjoy Friday or Saturday nights with Dj Ceaze. No cover charge. Mix drinks are prices between $12 - 15 bucks and they are good. The Arcade games and pin ball machines are fun. The Halloween parties...Read More

My first visit had me hooked. Great atmosphere, beer selection, and most importantly, 19 pinball machines (as well as other retro arcade games)! The staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful! Karaoke, Pinball League, Trivia, and occasional DJ's during the week. Pizza and tacos are...Read More

This place is cool. Great atmosphere, tasty drink menu and friendly staff. My girl and I were there Friday. DJ showed up around 9:00 and the crowd started building. Can get a little packed and it's not a huge spot but I'd def come back here.

Thursday trivia nights at 7 pm are extremely fun. Perfect place for date nights. They have a great variety of drinks, good music, and arcade games and pinball machines. It’s a must!

Cool place for after work drinks. I went there on karaoke night and it was pretty quiet, not sure if that’s the norm or not. A good happy hour before 7pm(?) and $10 gets you a bag of tokens that will get you 30-60 mins...Read More

A solid barcade! In terms of game variety, it’s no Dave and Busters - it’s kinda small, but there’s lots of retro games and a guitar hero machine. The drinks are good and creative as well. A nice lowkey place to go on a date...Read More

It got better, more bands performing now and it's been amazing so far I hope they keep it up. Arcade is cool they have pinball machines as well. And a balcony so it's fun and the music is great depending on the DJs .
