"The big open floor surrounded by balconies makes Emporium feel less like an arcade bar and more like a gaming arena. This converted theater on Divisadero in NoPa has a bunch of massive tables to rent, so your group can have a central meeting place between rounds of Skee-ball and Galaga, or, at least, a spot to cut the cake if you’re here for a birthday party." - julia chen 1, will kamensky
