I really like it, it has a pool table 🎱, there are several arcade games 🕹️, music plays in the background, there are TVs showing games. If you have money for drinks it's better! because if you have a card they charge an extra $1 for everything! lol but it's a cool place! I love the margarita drink there!
This is the best arcade bar in Lincoln, because it's the only arcade bar in Lincoln. Tonight's experience was a little disappointing, as it seems the count of machines malfunctioning or out of order seems to multiply each time I visit. At least half of the games we played tonight had something wrong with them, or just flat out stole our money. As someone who is an avid lover of arcade and pinball bars, this bar has some work to do to meet the standard. Most arcade bars now have dedicated staff who fix and/or swap out malfunctioning machines on the spot. For how long this bar has been established, some progress should have been made in this direction. It would make the experience so so so much better. The space has so much potential.
I mean, where else can you spend $5 and get 2 hrs of entertainment old school arcade style?? $0.25 a game still for some games?? 50cents for others??? It reminds me of taking $2 to nickel beer nights.. only you get quality games and fun arcade atmosphere, not a crummy stale beer hangover lol
I recently visited the Arcade Bar in Lincoln and had a blast! The atmosphere was amazing, and the games are super fun--my personal favorite being Frogger and Ski Ball. But what made the experience even better was the incredible service provided by Steven, the bartender. He was extremely welcoming and friendly, and really went above and beyond to ensure that my friends and I had a great time. His knowledge of the bar's wide selection of drinks was also impressive. Overall, I highly recommend the Arcade Bar for anyone in the Lincoln area looking for a fun night out. And if you stop by, be sure to say hi to Steven--he's an incredible bartender who truly knows how to make guests feel right at home. Thanks, Steven, for making our night out one to remember!
Popped in on a whim while we were in the area and was pleasantly surprised to find such a gem of a spot tucked away. So many of the classics under one roof! Everything is quarter operated, well maintained and machines are well spaced so nothing feels crowded. Drinks and service were great. Had a blast and can't wait to come back.
Absolutely a must stop if you are in The Haymarket area! This place has all of the great old video games, a pool table, and a foose ball table. The bar tender is great at making drinks even when someone in our group didn't know what they wanted the bartender mixed up a great one. The bathrooms have tons of old magazines laid on the wall which were blasts from the past! Some games were out of order and Tetris is out of line, so you have been warned ! There is also a skee ball that almost always declares you a winner! This place is just a great blast from the past! Don't be surprised when you realize that you no longer remember your key moves or combinations in these classic games! It is located in the basement level which is the only reason this has a 4 instead of 5 stars. I'm happy to change it if there is a way for someone who has mobility issues to get down there.
I gave service a one because I left something in the bar before they closed and instead of putting it in a lost and found they got rid of it. I’m mad because I knew where my items were on a table in the bar and they didn’t let me grab my items at the end of the night. Besides that experience. I love the bar. Don’t leave stuff in places unless you’re willing to lose it. Won’t be going back. I’ve heard worse things about the owners but my items will be missed by me.
Had never been there before and it was very good the staff was great and the drinks were very good. Were there for a while with family to play games and have fun and fun we had will be going back again.
Love the vibe in this place. It got packed with some super fun and friendly people. My friend wanted to find an espresso martini and after two bars we were batting zero. Came into Occidental and the bartender, Hannah, said that "we don't have martini
Great place for date night. We came in to grab one of their delicious cocktails, ended up having a few. They offer non-alcoholic variants! Quick, friendly, knowledgeable service (no food, but I didnât want to give them anything other that 5 stars)
Everything about this place is excellent! One of the only places in Lincoln to get Lobster Rolls. Service was fast as well and there are board games, pool, darts, etc to play. There is outdoor seating for the warmer months. The drinks were super yumm
Great live music! Especially the live jazz on Mondays. Quiet unless the live music is loud. Good service at the bar. Art on the walls. Friendly and laid-back atmosphere. The Storm Cellar makes Lincoln a better place to live.
This bar is such a blast. Good stuff here! 1. Staff is dope 2. Drinks are cold AND they have fishbowls 3. Live music 4. Eclectic groups of people go here...never a dull moment!
This place is really growing on me. Started frequenting occasionally as the live music line up evolves. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, nice location.
I absolutely love this climbing gym. The boulders are always great quality and updated every week. Great place to come alone and focus on bettering yourself as well as a fantastic place to hang out with friends (or even make new ones due to the amazi
I came in at 6:07pm Saturday and there were already people waiting for their orders. My order came out relatively quickly even though there was a small hiccup. They had forgotten to charge me for the churro cheesecake which was no biggie to me as it
The best bakery in all the land. My mom and I especially love the savory pastries and soups, but almost every other item we've tried has been delicious, too. Five stars for top-notch baked goods, and another five stars for the loveliest baker and own
This is my second year dropping in as I visit Lincoln to see family for the holidays. They were very friendly to Visitors. Last year (2022) Coach Conan and Coach Jared were amazing to me and my blue belt wife. The gym was amazing clean, clear schedu
We recently enjoyed our time at Tomahawks. Fun atmosphere, friendly staff and just a ton of fun! Highly recommend this place if you are looking for something fun to do with family/friends!!
This was our first time eating here and it was great. Such a great atmosphere and theyâre very welcoming here. Food was incredible. My daughter and dad loved it. Iâm glad she reccomended it for our lunch!
Tiru was absolutely delicious. Our server was polite and informative. The only thing the restaurant was missing was Ethiopian music but I hardly noticed since we went with a group and talked anyway! It was clean, including the bathroom! I will return
This is a really nice spot to enjoy amazing drinks and have a relaxing, fun time with friends! The ambiance here is amazing. The bartender explained everything thoroughly. I was not disappointed! A very inviting atmosphere that also has fun interacti
This was my first time at White Or Wheat Sandwich Shoppe. The sandwich was amazingly fresh. I have never had pepper jack cheese with flavor that popped. The Dijon mustard was perfect, not to hot, not too sweet. Bread was just right firm yet moist
