Roxy's Arcade

"So far the only bars your little sibling has been to have been the ones in their friends’ parents’ basement, so they’re probably not ready for a cocktail bar that serves 40 varieties of scotch, or a pub where regulars down light beer at 11am. But they’ll have a great time at A4Cade, a speakeasy bar filled with vintage arcade games that you enter through the freezer door at Roxy’s Grilled Cheese (which also offers the menu inside)." - dan secatore

"Booze and grilled cheese sandwiches from Roxy’s and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game? Uh, yes, please. A4cade is great for a date night — or a night on which you want to challenge all of your friends to a game of Hoop Fever." - Erika Adams, Karen Wilber, Terrence Doyle

"Actual speakeasies hid craps tables and illegal booze. Nowadays, speakeasies hide Tetris and skeeball. Walk through the cooler door at Roxy’s Grilled Cheese and you’ll find A4Cade, an arcade and bar filled with people playing Tron, drinking local beers, and nerding out over the Game of Thrones and Simpsons themed cocktails. The food menu is essentially Roxy’s selection of grilled cheese, burgers, and hot dogs, so get the green muenster melt and try not to think about the fact that you now worry a lot more about exchanging germs while playing Guitar Hero than you did when you were younger." - dan secatore

"Cambridge’s fun cocktail-bar-meets-arcade, A4cade, offers an extra-large version of several of its cocktails, including the “beach better have my mango” (a mango rum blend with vanilla, cinnamon, allspice, citrus, and bitters) and “land shark!” (Privateer Tiki Gin, apple brandy, aged rum, sherry, blue curacao, passionfruit, and lime), $28 each. Grab some friends, play some games, and share some booze." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
