    Affordable prices and solid drinks. Cute local place and fun games! Not too busy so easy to get seats and avaliable games but I bet if it was busy you wouldn't be able to play a whole lot.

    I love Coindexter's. I've lived and worked in the neighborhood since before it opened and have been many times. Very 90's vibes throughout. I actually have a jar of quarters I save specifically for whenever I'm gonna come here. Overall the place isn't too big so on the weekends it can get a bit crowded but on a weekday it's much more chill. They have a great selection of drinks and for it being a bar, I actually do enjoy their food! My only gripe is that most of the time I end up going, they are usually out of the Cap'n Crunchberry treats or just don't have them. But that's just me having a sweet tooth and getting excited when I see it on the menu. Haha

    Such a fun barcade stuck in the '90's! I came here for my friend's birthday party, as this is a place he frequents and loves, and after visiting, I can see why! There's a bouncer who checks IDs soon after you walk in, since Coindexter's only allows those 21+, indicating a play place just for adults. Yes! Plenty of seating is located off to the side, across the bar where you order drinks and food and for food, it's delivered to your table once it's ready. Oh, and although the menu is straightforward, with grilled cheese sandwiches, there are TOTS! But the real winner here are the games! There are classic games, like Pac-Man and Mario Kart and pinball machines in the back room. Most of the games I saw were a quarter to play a round, and they do have a coin machine, just in case! AND, since we're drinking while playing games, there are cupholders at the games, that so comfortably accommodates your pint of draft beer. Yeah, dawg, they thought of everything! For a break from all the games though, you can watch the old school shows they play in the background and during my visit it was MTV's Daria! Freakin' awesome! Staff is super friendly and people are chill here. It wasn't too packed on a Saturday night and we never had to wait to play certain games and such. When I went to the restroom I saw a sign, lending help for those on a bad Tinder date, with instructions to order a certain drink, which indicates to staff whether you need them to walk you to your car, call the police, etc... Seriously, this place thought of everything. Not only does Coindexter's cater to adults who never really grew up (me) with tots and classic games, they have your back in case you're on a sketchy date. Coindexter's is where it's at!

    A number of great Grilled Cheeses to choose.

    Wow this is a great place and the crowds have yet to find it. 12 drafts on tap and tasty grill cheese. The place has a lot of space for you and your friends. You have Rocco's Modern Life, Dinosaurs and more classic on TVs throughout the bar. Great arcade, skeeball, pool and pinball games to choose from. Not as full of games as The Jupiter in Belltown but more arcade games and Skeeball. Come and have a fun night out.

    Patrons are given a figure as a table marker, we got Mr. Clean.

    Nice establishment, with good atmosphere. Typical drinks on tap, video games and other bar games (skeeball, basketball, etc) available as well. The grilled cheese with bacon is good.

    19 different game machines.
    Jennifer C.

    They open Sept. 1st. Got a preview opening. Such a fun new stop in Greenwood. Tasty unique drinks and yum bar food from grilled cheese sandwiches to corn dogs on a plate made with corn pancakes, hotdogs and tasty sauce. Pinball machines fill the back room and old school pacman to skee ball out front The bar staff is friendly and helpful with drink suggestions. This is the cool and fun new place in town.

    Do you like skeeball? Do you like grilled cheese? Do you like beer? Do you like pinball? Do you like fun? Check out Coindexter's! 90's music pumping through the room while 90's movies and shows play on the tv. Very fun menu that comes in an old VHS case. So much fun I can't wait to come back!

    Nom!

    I've been behind a bar for more than 30 years…read more Long enough to know the difference between service and hospitality. Service is getting the drink right. Hospitality is making somebody feel seen. Dark Room made me feel seen. There was something about this place that hit me almost immediately. Maybe it was the room. Maybe it was the weirdness. Maybe it was the absolute lack of anything cookie-cutter. Maybe it was the way the staff cared without performing the fact that they cared. If you've spent any real time in Seattle bars, you know being the first-timer can sometimes feel a little rough. You walk in and have to earn your way into the rhythm of the place. Not here. Dark Room had that old-school hospitality I built a career around. The kind where somebody notices you. Reads the room. Knows when to talk, when to leave you alone, when to make a recommendation, when to surprise you. The drinks were strange and thoughtful and beautifully made. The food had personality. The room had soul. And then Ewan put a $12.87 "industry credit" on our bill. Twelve dollars and eighty-seven cents. It wasn't the amount. It was the gesture. A little nod across the bar world. A tiny act of recognition from one hospitality person to another. After 30 years in this business, I can tell you that those things matter. A lot. Because the best bars don't just serve drinks. They create a temporary world -- one with its own language, rituals, surprises, and small acts of grace. They remind you that hospitality is not about being impressed. It is about being welcomed. It is about leaving a place feeling a little more connected than when you walked in. That is what Dark Room gave me. It reminded me why I stayed in this business for so long: for the ritual, the intimacy, the creativity, the care, and the beautiful weirdness of making strangers feel at home for a few hours. The ultimate. The unique. The weird. That's the stuff. And Dark Room absolutely gets it.i
