Ever just get the urge to come home after a long day, throw your stuff on the couch, fill your pocket with quarters, and head to the arcade just like the good old days? We all need to just let go and unleash our inner child every now and then. Can you think of a better way to do that than spending an evening playing classic arcade games and eating pizza? That’s just what you can do at this arcade bar in Pittsburgh.
Relive those glory days between childhood and adulthood when we’d spend our free hours at the local arcade when you visit Games ‘N At on the South Side, a throwback to yesteryear.
An old-school arcade that’s BYOB (Bring Your Own Beer), the classic gaming joint allows children during the day. However, after 9 p.m., only guests 14 and older are permitted inside.
During those after school hours at the arcade, did you play arcade games, or did you spend hours polishing your pinball skills? Games ‘N At also has several pinball games that are sure to trigger feelings of nostalgia.
How about a game of the Simpson’s Pinball Party? South Park, Lord of the Rings, and Star Trek – ’91 Data East are just some of the other pinball machines at the throwback arcade.
We can’t forget, of course, all those hours of playing foosball, skeeball, and air hockey. All those memories are sure to come rushing back with your first game.
If you’ve brought the kiddos along and they prefer video games, you’re in luck. The classic arcade boasts a large selection of popular video games, including Call of Duty and Minecraft.
Leave your quarters at home. Games ‘N At offers pricing by the hour. One hour costs $6 while four costs $18. Stop by on Thursday, and it’s $10 per guest.
Enjoy a blast from the past at Games ‘N At, open Thursday from 4 p.m. to 12 a.m., Friday from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m., Saturday from 12 p.m. to 1 a.m., and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.
