Barcade

This place is dope, nice elegant bathrooms are clean. The whole overall experience was great so far. This is the best one yet.

Looking for a fun time with a bar AND arcade games? Well, Barcade has several locations in NY and we tried the one on Cortlandt St (Financial District), with two floors woirth of games. They have a full-service bar with a great cocktail menu. We had the Eye of the Liger (tequila, simple syrup & lime juice) and Waingro (bourbon, Faccia Brutto Amaro Gorini, simple syrup, lime juice) both excellent. (They have a pretty decent bar menu too, although we weren't hungry this time around.) Their selection of vintage and newer pinball machines, and video classics like Ms. Pacman and Centipede, and more made it a really fun place to have fun while enjoying a quality cocktail. Tokens are 25 cents each and most games are 2 tokens per play. Highly recommended!

Great drinks, great food, fun games! A few friends and I came by and had a great time, met some new people and the bartender Aliyah was funny, attentive and makes amazing drinks. Its a little out of the way for me but I’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Nate! What a wonderful bartender. He was very kind and not to mention the security checking your ID! Everyone was so hospitable and kind and it was my first time there but ill definitely be back! I love the location and the people 10/10 for a first time experience.

I went in yesterday 8/13, and had a cider which was lovely. Picture attached. Went back after work today, 8/14 got ID’d at the door. All good, love Barcade from JC, familiar with their ID policy. Door guy then asked to go through my work backpack, which was odd. After aggressively running his hands through my bag, I was OK man that’s enough, and I just left. I’m not trying to have a Body Cavity Search just so I can order a craft beer. Thanks. Best of luck at the new location!

A+!!! I've been going to adult arcades for a long time, and this is as good as it gets (at least in NYC where you can't buy or lease endless acreage for cheap). It's already the best Barcade location. Pinball and arcade selections are extensive and are a perfect mix of different eras. All the pins were in fantastic playing shape, as were the video games I played. Very spacious, with a ton of table seating, lovely layout, and the theming of the lower level gaming area as a basement is pitch perfect. Staff were courteous and helpful. And clean bathrooms!

Visited this establishment on 8/14 as they have recently opened. I work in the area and was excited to check the place out, I politely asked if the place was open for business and immediately asked me for my ID, (I was hesitant to show my identification as most bars ask for it when ordering a drink) (this was also broad daylight at 4:00pm), I politely informed them I wanted to look around and they immediately kicked me out of the establishment. This was a very rude treatment for a potential customer who works in the area and frequents establishments in the neighborhood. It is safe to say I will not go back after this treatment.

The best place in NYC without a doubt. Crew amazing and the arcades are great, tons of them and old school ones too!! Kate and German are the best bartenders!!
