This Classic Arcade Bar In Colorado Will Take You Back To Your Childhood
Remember when you were a kid and couldn’t get enough pinball, Frogger, and Pac-Man? While these classic games are hard to come by in this day and age, one Colorado bar has made an entire business out of combining 80’s gaming nostalgia and delicious cocktails… and you are going to love it.
Located in Denver's trendy LoDo neighborhood is the epic 1up, which does a bang-up job at combining our two favorite things: the 1980s and alcohol!
Opened in 2011, 1up is quite possibly the most unique bar in Colorado (aside from its sister location on Colfax, of course), thanks to its 90 classic arcade games...
As if you really needed another reason to visit/love 1up, the bar also offers a giant menu of drinks and delicious bar food, which tastes even better after winning a round of Donkey Kong!
The 1up - LoDo is located at 1925 Blake St in Denver and is open Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 2 a.m., and Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m.
