With all the glitz and glamour that comes with smartphones and tablets, it seems as if vintage past times like Friday nights out at the arcade have been cast by the wayside. Still, 16-Bit Bar + Arcade is keeping the fun of pinball and Pac Man with multiple locations around the United States. They’ve recently made Nashville, Tennessee their new home, and their Gulch location is a prime spot for folks looking to enjoy an affordable and low-key night out on the town. Check it out below, and maybe visit for yourself.

It's a great spot for folks to indulge in a classic cocktail and a night filled with Donkey Kong and Joust. It's hard to find places like these nowadays, and although 16-Bit Bar + Arcade is a chain, it adds a bit of wit and retro whimsy to Nashville's date night offerings.

The best part? If you drink, you play for free! Which is all the more reason to order perhaps a Hulk Hogan — made with lemonade and blueberry vodka, and served with a bomb pop — or a low-key mocktail like the sprite and grenadine laced Lisa Simpson.
