Neon Retro Arcade is an Old Town/Old Pasadena must…read more
It's a kid friendly hub, but just as fun for adults if not more.
Open daily from Noon til 10pm, 7 days a week.
Everything is set to free play with a paid admission fee. You can do hourly pay or a set price for all day play.
There's probably about 60 different arcade style games ranging in many decades including 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s favorites.
Pinball, Mario Kart, Mortal Kombat, Marvel Vs Capcom (my jam), Super Smash Bros, Basketball Pro, Pac Man, NFL Blitz, Rampage (arcade game of my youth), Donkey Kong, Tron, The Simpsons and so many others.
Soft drinks, great lighting, a spacious layout.
Neon Retro offers cool holiday deals and specials, hosts fun events, IG giveaways and keeps the fun going all year long.
It's still only $15 for unlimited hourly play or $25 for a day pass.
No food is served here other than snacks (think chips and candy), but so many places closeby to eat before or after your Neon Retro Arcade fun!!
It's not a barcade like EightyTwo or Player One so it's alcohol free.
They're all welcoming and very personable.
I do know they have a capacity limit and weekend tend to be the busiest until around 4 or 5 pm.
Nights and weekends are definitely lower in foot traffic, but still great energy.
I don't make it over too often, but highly recommend experiencing once or thrice.
They just had a cool 50% off hourly prices for Bonus Level Loyalty Club members, and yes it's free to be a member :)
Local street (meter), paid lot and garage parking available.
Gender-neutral restrooms.
Great for groups or just you.
