    We stopped in on a weeknight with our daughter. It was her 21st birthday. The bartender was nice, and gave us a run down on how everything worked. We ordered a round of shots, and drinks for our party. The drinks were very weak, but they tasted ok. We went off to play some games, and had fun with that. After a bit, we came back and ordered another round of drinks. We quickly realized they were mostly mixer. They were too expensive to keep ordering basically flavored sprite at $9 a piece. We played the console games at the tables, while we finished our drinks and decided to leave. Overall, it was fun, but the drinks were really disappointing.

    This is such a fun place. Bring you friends, get some drinks and play games all night long. Great atmosphere and plenty of games for everyone's taste. Highly recommended.

    This place is awesome! If you have two drinks, games are free or $5 cover if you don't want to drink. Had the karate kid shot, it was so good! Also got a beer, and my tan was about $15. Daniella treated us so well and was very informed about the menu. It is also beautiful in here! The vibe is very retro and they have a great selection of games, Definitely recommend this place for a night out with some friends!

    Weekend At Bernie's

    Vintage video game arcade/bar in downtown OKC. Unlike other arcades I've been to, games are unlimited and FREE with the purchase of two beverages. The space is massive, and packed with every arcade game you could hope to find. Decor is colorful and distinctly 1980's. My husband and I came here at 5pm on a weekday, and had the place to ourselves. We ordered alcoholic slush puppies, which were delicious. They offer a fun menu of inexpensive speciality cocktails and shots. I loved the neon blue "Weekend At Bernie's", which contains tequila, pineapple and orange juices, and a little coconut. The lady working was genuinely friendly. We had so much fun playing games and sipping tasty drinks. I wish we had something like this at home in LA.

    We met a group of friends here. I had heard of it and had wanted to go check it out for awhile. It was a lot of fun. I played centipede and millipede a million times. Pac-Man and several others a bunch too. So nice to be able to play free. There is a 2 drink minimum but we were there for a couple of hours so it was easy to want 2 drinks. I'm not sure if we got happy hour prices or if their drinks are very fairly priced. My husband had several beers and I had a mixed drink and our bill was $25!! I do wish they had food though. The onion burger shop next door smelled really good when we were leaving. I recommend this pub for a fun evening but eat before you go.

    I have been to a lot of arcade bars in my life, but this one has to be one of my favorites. For just $5 on a Saturday, you can play as many games as you want - this includes classic arcades and console games! One of my favorite things about this place are how creative their drinks are. They have many different drinks themed after popular video games/candies, same with shots. They also have a slush puppies machine, which you can get with the liquor of your choice! There's so many games to play here, and it looks like they also have a DJ at certain times. I also found a 'free Blockbuster' setup, where you can borrow games/VHS tapes for free and bring them back whenever you're done. So cool! If you want to feel nostalgic, this bar is an awesome one to check out in downtown OKC.

    I was visiting OKC and heard about this place from one of my Uber drivers! We went on Thursday around 5:00pm (which happened to be when they open) and had the whole place to ourselves! The bartender was super nice. My friend got a local beer. I got a blueberry lemonade with Titos per the bartender's recommendation - it was delicious! We had a lot of fun playing all the games. The bartender said they have live music on Friday & Saturday's. Definitely would love to come back to check it out.

    Ok. This is our new favorite spot. Period. Free play all day on these games. A mock tails menu for those who need alcohol free items 21+ only which is so nice to just have a kid free date. All the games were working and the assortment was IMPRESSIVE to say the very least. As an 80s baby it was everything we loved from our good ole days. We spent a whole $11.50 after a tip for an awesome blast from the past amazing time!

    This place was a blast from the past! $5 cover or 2 drink minimum to play the free arcade games. We'll worth it! They have close to 100 Games! Fun 80's theme throughout and great tasting drinks with fun names! Happy hour is 4:00 pm- 7:00 pm M-F.

    The bar tenders are so friendly and make good strong drinks! The games are very fun and reminds me of UP Down in the plaza

    This place has a good atmosphere. The drinks were extremely weak, and half of the games worked. Still had a good time despite both.

    What is the crowd like? Is it mostly college kids or is it people that actually remember the 80's?

    A little bit of both. It mainly depends on the night. Just give it a try... it is worth the $5 cover (Y)

    If you go in expecting just meh food with a glass of beer, your expectations will be met. Nothing…read morewas necessarily bad, but it also wasn't great. Well maybe except the kids corn dogs. They seemed to love them, but it's not hard to mess up a plate of batter fried food. The chicken lollipops maybe could've been really good, but I'm not a honey BBQ fan. Even just a plain buffalo option or something more unique like a sweet gochujang. Really wish there were just any other flavor options than BBQ. But I did like the pairing with the pickled onions and pickle slices. The ribeye sandwich was the biggest let down though. The meat was thin and dry. I was expecting a grilled ribeye, just sliced for a sandwich. But it was more like Philly cheesesteak type of meat. The mayo was heavy handed. It needed something to brighten up the flavors a little, like maybe more horseradish and a drizzle of balsamic reduction? It was good in concept, lacking in execution. Service was fine. Bradford was attentive and took good care of us. And my husband was a big fan of the multiple sports ball options on all of the TVs.

    We love republic! Great place to grab drinks or watch a game. TVs are every where and their service…read morejs always on point. I feel like I can barely drink half a glass of something before someone is coming to refill it. We love their pub shrimp appetizers! My fav menu items are the steak Cobb and republic burger. They do different specials as well so there's always new things to try. Always a great spot to grab dinner or happy hour. They have a patio as well with TVs.
