We had so much fun here. This was the first arcade/pinball bar I have tried since moving back to Arizona and it was a great time. A good selection of beers on draft. Absolutely love pinball and had fun on the pinball machines. Spent a lot of time on shooting games and fighting games, since there were 2 of us. We used it as a date night and it was well worth it. read more

This place is awesome. I can't speak to the food but it's very clean and well kept inside, even the bathrooms. The games are 1-4 tokens so a small cup of tokens lasts a long time. $3 domestic drafts, amazing price in todays economy. Great place to hang out and super nice staff. read more

In the valley, I've tried two of these locations and always find the atmosphere fun and a unique way to have a drink with a friend or even on a date. I love the nostalgia of playing a pinball machine, and love that I can also enjoy a beverage while playing. The staff is always incredibly friendly, and be aware it's bar service so don't be shy to go order up there! I'll definitely be back when in the area. read more

We love dropping in here w/ these guys! We have ordered their pizza, their nacho taco salad thing lol, and recommend both. The nacho tacos are great depending on who makes them. The delicious cheese can make the chips soggy super quick if not prepared properly. The pizza and cheese were a pleasant surprise for this type of establishment. Not five star food, but it's a gaming site and there is a large selection of items!! We love the friendly people here and watching the gamers while we sip margs and eat! Thanks for all the kindness and great service!! PS!! BIG DEAL and why they get FIVE stars is the cleanliness!! These guys don't skip a beat wiping tables immediately and the bathroom is so clean!! So important! Thanks again! read more

Level 1 Arcade Bar - Arcades Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

See all

Cool idea but just dropped money in 3 separate games and everyone one of them was broken/not functioning correctly.

Love this place! Staff can be friendly but the vibes are cool and they play great music! Lots to do!

I'm happy to see another new arcade bar open up in Mesa. There is an upstairs and downstairs. We mostly spent our time upstairs. It is quite loud. If you're looking to have some deep conversations with whoever you go with, this is not the place for you. But if your looking to play some vintage games and have a few drinks then you'll enjoy this place. They do offer food but I did not try any during my visit. I will definitely be back. read more

Great service, and alot of fun! We went there after a show and had some drinks, and played some old Retro games! read more

Level 1 Arcade Bar - The beer flight was amazing. Not only do you get some really good beer options but they also give you tokens to play. - Arcades Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Sara was awesome, very friendly, good conversation and amazing food and drink service. Thank you Sara very much we will come back because of you. read more

A lot more games than the Gilbert location. But Order your beers in a 16 oz glass on the first level. The upper level gives them in a 12 oz solocup at the same price. read more

With it being my birthday I wanted to go to my favorite spot with my family have a beer and play games. It was before 7 when minors can be in with guardians. My younger cousins lives with me. She wasn't even sitting at the bar they said they couldn't serve us anything or be there because of a minor. They followed by saying I need to provide guardianship in order for us to be in the building. She's 20 years old and just wanted to play the arcade games. Very bummed to not get to spend my birthday the way I had planned. read more

Everything was on point, except for the fact that I kept feeding the games more than I ever have , even when I was winning and had multiple lives left. It's a bit nefarious to have their games set up like that. I will continue to go there, but I will play less video games and since that's their main attraction and I don't drink, I'll move along to the next form of entertainment. read more

I'm a fan. This location is way bigger than the Gilbert location. Two bars and tons of games that are all reasonably priced. My only suggestion would be to move the games that are blocking the upstairs windows. There's such a cool view up there and not many places in DT Mesa have a second story. read more

Service and bar tender were awesome! Cool place to hang out and have some drinks with retro games.

Games are great, food is excellent and team members are wonderful. Started out at Alchemy 48 which was quite, peaceful and since I was the driver they made me Mocktails that tasted just like they had real booze in them. Then headed upstairs and finished out the evening with family and friends and had a great time. read more

Obsessed with this awesome bar and bartenders!! Potter is so friendly, fun and makes the most delicious drinks! I love their fried PB&J! They have so many games to play and multiple floors for different vibes. Can't wait to go back and check out the new speakeasy downstairs!! read more

Location, food, and service are fantastic. They have great games and the speakeasy down below is a completely different experience.

I was unable to stay and accompany my family at Level One as I use a walker and an elevator is not provided. I will be reviewing ADA regulations. Out door seating is provided but the temperature is already 104 in Mesa,Az. We were treating my six year old great grandson here as a last treat before the start of school. He was already excited at all the games and I did not want everyone to leave on my account. Very disappointing and inconsiderate to the handicapped. I cannot access the high tops or tall bar stools. If even a couple of tables inside on the main floor. Level One is a three floor game and restaurant. Luckily I drove myself and didn't inconvenience the rest of my group. read more

Leeann all the way! Great Bartender and Great Service! Always a great time! Highly recommend her specialty drinks and shots!

This place is amazing. We love level 1 in Gilbert and I went here to try out the new location. I left my purse unattended and the manager Terry went above and beyond watching camera and he found my bag that I adored. I am so thankful to have an amazing arcade bar that we already love from Gilbert with the amazing customer service of the Mesa manager Yerry read more

JAKE AND JUSTIN ARE OUR FAVORITES!!! we come every week for these gems, love this new location

Cool place. Has some nice retro games and a nice vibe to it. Pretty good music and food too. I wouldn't recommend the pizza, but the sliders were alright. Cant go wrong with nachos and tots also. The drinks have cool names but the ones we tries were too sweet for my liking. Stick with the simple drinks and save yourself a little money. Staff has all been pretty friendly in my experience as well. With the multiple bars its always pretty fast getting a drink. I do wish that had regular wings and not only boneless ones. Pool tables would have been very nice as well, but im not sure where they would squeeze it in. Would recommend for a chill date night or to get out with some friends. read more

Super fun with lots of classic games. Very unique drinks which were super tasty. The food is decent for bar food but there are other things in the area that are better. But this is probably the most fun I've had at a bar. read more

Come here for games and beers. Bar staff is at the bar if you need something, they are not bugging you while you play games. Food is nothing special but they have options. Pinball selection is solid. Love how Downtown Mesa has so many choices to play pinball now! read more

I am thoroughly impressed with this place. Not only were they still serving food at 10pm on a Tuesday which was everything by the way but it had a really cool bartender who fits well with place and makes great drinks. This might be my new hangout! Love it read more

The arcade itself is great, The service is beyond horrible!!! Untitled people who really don't want to be bothered by actually working. We have been locals here since they opened and have been here 4 times hoping maybe it was because they are new however every time the staff seems bothered if you order food and ask for anything. I know the owners and they are amazing people I don't understand how they can have such hotline staff. We will not be back it's such a pity as it's a great location. read more

I love level 1! Our bartender Jake made the experience above and beyond. He is tentative and friendly and gives great drink/beer suggestions. Will be returning to level one for Jake and as much pinball as my heart can handle! read more

My fiancé and I have been coming to this bar since it opened and the vibes are impeccable, food, games, and fun drinks served by fun awesome bartenders (especially Jake, amazing bartender & person, definitely grab a smokey & the bandit shot from him!!) read more

I love this place! Great atmosphere, yummy food and drinks, and great staff. Jake was my bartender last time I was there and he recommend the Watermelon Rancher which was delicious. I've tried the Odder Pop and some of the food and haven't been disappointed yet! 10/10 recommend :) read more

Jake Potter was my bartender and from his drink and food recommendations to his favorite games to play, I will 100% be back! He had amazing service and was so friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to bring my friends and family to come in and would recommend anyone to come see Jake P! read more
