The lowdown great vibe, unique drinks and games that drag you right back to your childhood.. Pixels in Rolesville is part arcade, part bar, and all nostalgia. The play-until-you-win duck claw machine is super fun and will help all those keep owners get their ducks in a row! Total blast. I tried the Kirby drink, yes, the one with the cotton candy, and it comes in this quirky little glass with eyeballs. Weird in the best way. They've got empanadas too. And I'm keeping an eye out for their music bingo and trivia nights and potentially an increase in their menu items. Feels like Rolesville finally has a place with some real personality. read more

Pixels was such a fun experience. Coming in and seeing all of the retro style games and decor definitely gave me a nostalgic feeling. I ordered the Pika Pika Boba and it felt as if i was drinking a tropical island in a cup. read more

There is a good amount of parking. The decor is absolutely amazing. There are so many things to look at that I don't even think I covered all of them. The bathroom layout was a top favorite thing on my list. The pinball machines are stunning. I loved the Marvel Venom one. There is a good amount of games and some very cool and new ones. Like the driver with motion. Fantastic screen. The food, great. My favorite was the pepperoni and cheese empanada. The crust is 1000% excellent and I am an empanada expert. There are other flavors too. Mac and cheese with chicken, also good option. The service and attention were top notch! Bartenders on point, friendly and courteous. Making some really cool drinks. An overall great experience and will wait patiently for my prize for highest score on DK. read more

I was really disappointed to visit Pixels, as I was excited to know about a local bar + arcade close to home. We bought some tokens and began browsing the arcade options; we tried a claw machine and attempted a 2nd try, but it would not take our coins. I attempted to get the attention of a young lady working, but she had an AirPod in so it took a minute. When I finally got her attention, she told us in a condescending manner that the machine was "turned off" and couldn't be used. That alone, removed our desire to purchase drinks from this place. Additionally, there is only one person in the kitchen and one person working the bar, which showed slow service. The arcade options are nice though, nothing crazy that would make me choose this bar + arcade over others. When I did go to purchase more tokens, the machine was apparently out of service, but still took our money. We told the same young lady and received another response in distasteful manner, telling us that the machine was obviously out of service but that she would get us our coins. It's a quaint small place in the area, but for the service I received, I'd rather make the drive to Raleigh and other areas to other bar + arcade locations I actually enjoy. read more

Pixels Bar & Arcade - Bars Near Me - Rolesville, North Carolina

Pixels is a newer barcade that is located in Downtown Rolesville. A group of us stopped in to check it out to play a few games and grab a beer. The glassware for the cocktails look cute and they also have food so will need to try that next time. I thought that they had a good mix of games like claw machines, basketball, big buck hunt, air hockey, classic arcade games and more. It was a fun way to pass time. On a side note, go after 8PM if you want to go when children are not allowed. read more

I was excited to check out Pixels. There was a parking lot located in front of the business. The decor inside was retro and colorful. We came on a Saturday afternoon & it was busy. There were a variety of people inside including children. The business does have hours for adults only. There were a variety of arcade games and other games such as ice skeet ball inside. We sat at the bar and ordered our food. Our bartender was attentive. I got the Buffalo wings & the kirbylicious drink. The wings were good. They were served hot and were tender. My drink was cute as it was pink and was topped with cotton candy. It tasted ok and was basically a milk based drink but I didn't get a buzz or taste any alcohol in the drink. I would not get it again. read more

Seems like a decent arcade that was giving a smaller boxcar vibe. The staff here were pleasant. The menu has an overwhelming amount of food and drink offerings. The Seoul empanada was very different but good. It's an acquired taste at first. Very juicy and extremely meaty. I enjoyed it in the end after I got used to the taste. Korean bbq flavored beef and slaw was inside. I also enjoy the cauliflower bites with a side of buffalo and blue cheese for dipping. I would've preferred the cauliflower tossed in the buffalo sauce. Everything was pretty good. The strawberry slushy was also pretty good. The space was super crowded on a Saturday afternoon. The parking was effortless. I would return only if I'm in the area and looking for things to do. read more

This is a great place to go to with the family or out with friends. Great mix of classic and modern games, good food, and drinks. The space is clean, the staff is friendly, great vibes.

Highly recommend! read more

A cool new place in downtown Rolesville! Menu is many different apps and unique empanada flavors - everything we had was good. We would recommend the wine...and we aren't wine snobs they had some interesting cocktails on the menu, but they all sounded sweet and overwhelming. You can either order from the bar or use QR codes at the table to order online and they bring it to you. The games in the restaurant are all pretty standard, classic games. read more

We went in last night after spending some time in downtown Raleigh. It's still fairly new. I think small tables to set your drinks on while playing would set this place off. Some of the arcade games are our coins which really sucked. We enjoyed playing basketball, skeeball and guitar hero together. I think to attract more adults interactive games we can play together would be a lot of fun. This place is similar to boxcar in downtown but much more low key. It's family friendly until 8. We didn't have any table top space because families were still in the facility past 8. Children were running around Playing arcade games. There's two air hockey tables in the back but they were taken while we were there. We had fun but definitely felt that more interactive games to play together would have kept us there longer. Mario kart, the big connect 4, the big jenga even. Little things like that would go a long way in keeping people entertained while drinking. We would definitely go back in the future! Loved the vibe and the decorations her. The bathroom is super cute. read more

My 11 yr old and I went today and we had so much fun!!! We were there for just under 3 hours. Daughter wished the money machine (that gives you the tokens for the games) took coins (she had a lot hahah)...she loved her drink, my drink was also good and we enjoyed the pretzels. They weren't like normal pretzels (idk, we both agreed it was hard to describe).. they were a soft crispy? But really good! We had a few questions with some of the games and the staff were super helpful! I also asked another customer eBay they were drinking and they were also super helpful and told me.. We brought our dirty cups and dish back up to the bar and the worker thanked us, telling us that it wasn't necessary. We had a great time, and will definitely go back! I even told my 11yr old, that I might go back during adult only hours read more

Excellent service, good choice of draft beers plus a full bar. Food options are definitely better than a typical bar. Loaded tots and empanadas are our favorites! Wide variety of arcade games keep kids and adults alike entertained. Definitely a family friendly place! read more

GREAT spot for games. Beer selection is pretty varied with lots of local options. But having empanadas as the feature food option was unexpectedly awesome. read more

The place is such a gem it's unbelievable! It has a chill and vibrant atmosphere at the same time, if you want to watch sports or play video games. The team is very nice and has really contributed to turning the place into a very welcoming one. The mac and cheese is made of fresh ingredients, very creamy and super cheesy. We also felt very lucky to find non-alcoholic drinks, as we had some guests who do not drink, and any cocktail could be served as a mocktail. read more

Absolutely love this place and the atmosphere. They are always so nice and sweet , very helpful with the menu and I was obsessed with the pork I believe, loaded tater tots. I love all the creativity with the drinks as well so fun! 10/10 read more
