On the outside, Glitch Bar looks like an art warehouse located by some train tracks. On the inside, it’s game on all night long.
Glitch Bar is what the cool kids call a “barcade.” Dozens of free, throwback arcade games sit throughout the three-roomed bar and are yours to play. Skeeball and Donkey Kong are just the start to this gaming adventure. You can go around trying out games, while the neon lights set the mood for the vintage dancefloor. You can have a go at the menu’s creative drinks -- there’s even one with a popsicle in it. A great date night or bro-mantic spot, Glitch is a must for the competitor in all of us.
