Now that winter has come to Minnesota, it’s time to find indoor activities to get us through the frigid season. Museums and movies are a good bet, but what about when you’re looking for something a little more unique? Look no further than Up-Down Arcade Bar in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This adults-only arcade is perfect for a unique night out.
Up-Down is a popular spot for retro game lovers throughout the Twin Cities. You'll find the bar on 3012 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN 55408.
This busy area of Minneapolis has plenty going on. Many people grab a bite to eat before visiting Up-Down. Others pop into ZRS Fossils for a look at some unique curiosities.
But if you're raring to go, you can always eat at Up-Down. Their pizza is surprisingly good - especially if you wash it down with one of the dozens of beers on tap.
There are also plenty of games on the roof, like giant Jenga, Connect Four, and shuffleboard. It's a great spot to cool down with great views of the city.
All in all, Up-Down Arcade Bar is a great spot for a fun date, a unique night out, or to deep-dive into nostalgia. For more information, check out the Up-Down website and Facebook page.
