Great place on Main Street in Mesa. They have a great variety of beers (and they're not all IPAs for once). Tons of old pinball and arcade games. Kid and adult friendly but kids need to be out by 7 pm. 80s music like The Cure playing the whole time. What could be better?

5 for food because you have to provide your own pick it up have it walked on from across the street Gus's Famous Chicken or you walk down the street and pick it up. They only have the brewery delights for you and the games of course so come on in to the cool air have a beer and get your play on.

I gave a 5 out of 5 on food because I didn't eat and I don't know if they had food. I wanted to play Pinball and drink and they had a dope collection of pinball machines. I suggest you don't go here so I can have my alone time with the pinball machines.

Great place for a date night or just to hang out. They don't serve food, but encourage you to patronize the restaurants nearby and allow you to bring it in. The pinball machines are 1 and the other games cost a quarter. We come every week! Thanks for coming to Mesa!

Video game bar. That's all you need to know. Bartender was friendly and fun and we had a great time drinking different beers and playing pinball. There is a machine to get quarters for games. No food but plenty of choices nearby. A great DJ Sid Riddle was there today. If you are looking for arcade games and beer this is your spot.

The adult arcade you've been waiting for! They provide a decent selection of pinball and classic arcade games from the 70s and 80s while serving BRI craft beer and a selection of wines. They also have water and soda on hand for the kids and anyone not partaking. There is no kitchen, but you can bring in food from any of the local downtown restaurants or the occasional food truck.
