Retro arcade games, pinball machines, and craft cocktails
"Built on novelty, EightyTwo is a happy marriage between video game geeks, pinball nerds, and alcohol. Armed with cash, be sure to get at least $10 in quarters at the quarter machines; you'll want to play each and every game in this place at least three times. Each machine has a convenient cup holder for whatever your beverage may be. The patio in the middle is a nice break between digital and analog, and a great place to have your beer." - verynice
"If you need a place to drink that’s fun but also serves more than just overpriced well drinks, you want EightyTwo. It’s an arcade bar in the Arts District that serves craft cocktails, draft beer, and wine inside and on their outdoor patio. There’s an area dedicated to old-school arcade games and another area entirely for pinball. They often host pinball tournaments, DJ sets, and other activities involving 30-year-olds getting too emotionally invested in vintage games. They don't allow food inside, but when you get hungry, walk across the street to grab pizza at De La Nonna." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
"Similar to screaming babies and iPads, arcade games keep adults entertained for hours. EightyTwo in the Arts District has vintage pinball machines ranging from PacMan to lesser known classics like Ice Cold Beer (this one really gets drunk people going). The bar serves beer, wine, and cocktails, which you can drink on the spacious outdoor patio to avoid the sound of pinball reverberating through your skull." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"EightyTwo is a bar, but the drinks are more like a bonus here. The real draw: one room full of quarter-operated classic video games and another dedicated to the great game of pinball. Rotating food trucks make regular stops in the back courtyard, so you can take a break in the middle of a Pac-Man tournament. "
