I love this place. I had a blast playing the old school video games, and they weren't expensive. The drinks were great and inexpensive. I would say they should have Wipes available to wipe the machines from germs

Fun experience. Vintage pinball, and arcade games. Cool atmosphere and fun people.

The pin ball selection here is exquisite. There were some of my childhood favorites. The South Park themed pinball machine was at the laundromat my family went to growing up. There were so many good times playing that machine and I was delighted to find it here. I enjoyed a lot of the vintage arcade games. I would 10/10 go back, I just wish we had one closer to home in eastern Kansas.

So fun!!!! We had an extra hour to kill in between date night reservations and this place was amazing. We had so much fun playing with some old favorite games. It was nice to laugh. Don't worry about bringing cash, grab $20 bags at the bar with your drink or use one of the machines. Be prepared to wait for favorite classics.

Love the old school retro feel. Games are $.50 pinball machines are $1.00 they got change machines and ATMs if you got time to kill definatly a good visit. Good jukebox was digging the environment everyone friendly.

We had a great time here! Awesome games and good drinks.

My friend and I had a terrific time at 1UP Arcade Bar!! They have great drink options and so many games to choose from! The bartenders were amazing and so helpful to my friend and i. Also the bathrooms are super clean and they are also gender neutral. I had so much fun here!

This place is awesome, I’m from Maryland and I have a Maryland ID and I have no problem with the bouncers, the reviews about people getting their ID taken are so stupid and almost scared us from going but I’m glad we didn’t listen to them The security was friendly to us and we had no issues so management must have listened to the complaints. The lineup of pinball machines here is insane, they make you use tokens instead of coins to I would suggest going $20 at a time because the tokens are non refundable. Coors lite on tap was $4, what else can you want great spot!

I love this bar. I e only been twice but have had so much fun here. The video games are fun, the bartenders are awesome, and the crowd is so friendly! Walked in with a buddy played games with strangers, took photos in the photo booth, and the second time I went back, the bartenders remembered my drink! Great bar, good people, adding it to my regular list of stops!

Must have American ID to enter. PBR tall boys are cheap, everything else expensive. Lots of fun people and regulars playing games. Pinball is more expensive now in 2022 post covid. 2 dollars for 3 plays is the way to go. If you come early you can usually find machines loaded with credits and you can play some arcade cabinets for free. Lots of good games, the 4 player Mario kart is hard to steer you have to drift., Most everything works though. Cross the street for some pizza (buff chicken or stuffed slice) and/or stop at argonauts liquor for cheap shooters. The bar next door Sancho's is also pretty chill and has pool tables and a greatful dead juke box.

I had a few hours to kill before a train ride so I jumped on a scooter and found this hangout. All of the favorites of my childhood were there in addition to new attractions such as pinball machines modeled from modern intellectual property. The cost was a little expensive. I bought a non-alcoholic drink and it set me back five dollars. The pinball machines can be up to a dollar per play. That being said, the ten dollars that I spent while I was there made it a nice way to spend the afternoon.

I LOVED this arcade/bar. It was so much fun. Lots of modern and old school games. The staff could work on their attentiveness and friendliness but because it was so much fun, I was willing to let the bad interaction at the bar go.

Walked in with a family member on a Sunday afternoon (8/27/23) so it wasn’t too crowded. We sat at the bar and ordered draft beers to sit and catch up. After about 3 beers and half an hour of talking we hit the machines! So many nostalgic games to choose from that immediately brought me back to growing up with these games! The one negative drawback was at the pinball machines, two guys added there money to The Mandalorian pinball machine and I was walked up to take a few pics for my review they immediately asked I do not play as they were waiting for a friend to play three players mode. I was respectful and walked away however after 15 minutes their “friend” had not shown up!! 😡 I almost mouthed off to them however I took the high road and moved on! Should be a rule that this is not allowed, in my opinion. This is a fun place to hang out in and I highly recommend. Here’s some more highlights; The Good: Great location Bathrooms were clean Great beer selection and served ice cold Each employee we interacted with were nice, helpful and polite You can add the tokens to your bill and that was convenient A wide selection of arcade games A wide selection of pinball games A wide selection of other games we didn’t have a chance to play Several Skeeball’s with cool colors to liven the mood Brings you back to the good ol’ days(I’m old lol) The Bad: Not much negative to say other than allowing people to add money to a machine without all players being ready to go! Thanks for a good time, we shall return!! 👾🕹️👾🕹️👾🕹️👾🕹️👾🕹️

Super fun place to hit for either a weekend night out, or when you’re just bored on a Tuesday afternoon. The place is huge and there’s something for everyone. Also, the $20 bag of coins you get actually goes far, unlike a lot of places with arcade games where $20 lasts you about 5 minutes. We love you 1up!

1UP Arcade Bar has a well-curated collection of some of the GOAT arcade cabinets in the mainstream collective memory. The Simpsons, NFL Blitz '99, NBA Jam Tournament Edition, Alien vs. Predator, House of the Dead, and it has some newer cabinets that aren't as common but are nonetheless welcome options - DARIUSBURST: Another Chronicle comes to mind. I was only to visit for a little bit, but there was also an impressive array of pinball tables, skee ball booths, and basketball booths to round out that classic arcade experience. Staff was responsive when NBA Jam ate a couple of our quarters and were happy to top us off when asked. Oh yeah, you can drink and there are no children. What else could you want as an 80s/90s kid?

Most fun I’ve ever had in a bar! There are old games and more modern ones. We tried our had at the White Claw claw, but my friends and I mostly stuck with skee ball! I also thought the stickers on the pizza warmer were hilarious hahaha. I wish they’d build a bar like this in my city, 10/10 would visit again.

Spent 20$ on tokens between my fiancé and myself and it was more than enough for a few hours of fun! I enjoyed the older retro games far more than some of the newer stuff. We didn’t experience any lost tokens or broken buttons. 10/10 a good time.

Would definitely recommend this place! So fun! Great bartender and music and atmosphere as a whole. Games are on the cheaper end for hours of fun!

Always have so much fun here! I prefer it to the LoDo location, but both are good. This one, however, is bigger and has a better game selection. A great place to hit for a night out in Denver!

Excellent pinball and arcade selection with a fully stocked bar & friendly staff. Pinball Machines are in perfect condition - I played all of them and didn’t have any issues. They also have a happy hour with $2 draft beer… best pinball day ever!!

Awesome bar service and lots of games! Be aware that they give tokens and not quarters from their machines any more. I recommend go early to avoid large crowds. Also check out their weekly specials, always a great deal.

This is my favorite bar. They used to have a really refreshing vodka drink but they upgraded to pickle shots which are even better. The giant jenga is great as always, but they need to be smoothed down because I got several splinters. I love the pinball machines too but they're really expensive sadly. Otherwise, great bar and a great place to spend time with friends or go out on your own!

This place was so fun, happy hour all day on Sundays with cheap drinks. They have an entire bar area filled with pinball machines and another side of the bar filled with classic arcade games as well as some more modern ones. My only complaint was that the pinball games were 1$ to play which I felt was a little much, other than that, it was awesome!

This place is awesome for pinball… 10/10

1up is about the best place to go in a weekend night if you love playing games like I do. Me and my brother go regularly and love it. This place is amazing and a ton of fun. It is exactly what you think an adult gaming bar would be and the games are all affordable. Pinball is 1.00$ for a game or 2 dollars for 3 and most arcade games are 25 cents some 50 but all worth it.

Lots of old school games to play and brings back a little nostalgia, will definitely be returning

I love this place I just wish competition was encouraged. I feel that someone should teach people how to play video games to first timers and make people really compete. Also a Dance Dance Revolution would be cool 😁

This brought back such nostalgia. I had an absolute blast. Plus slush puppies! Nothing like pure sugar in a cup

This places atmosphere is so cool, the huge selection of pinball machines was worth it on its own! The drinks I got were the Donkey Punch which was a fantastic Red Bull drink, and The Princess peach drink which was alright. The prices for the drinks were a bit high but we took the time at the bar to also get their $20 coin bags for the arcade machines. The Time Crisis 5 machine was an absolute blast to go through with a buddy! Overall this was a fantastic bar!

Be careful if you get tokens from the bar. They don’t exchange them back. Not accommodating or understanding to their patrons. We’re from out of town, I’m sure if you’re local it’s no problem.
