Dorky’s Arcade In Washington With 114 Vintage Games Will Bring Out Your Inner Child

Have you ever wished to go back to a time when life was a little simpler? While actual time travel is still impossible, you can always go back and relive your youth at Dorky’s Arcade in Tacoma. For nearly a decade, this quirky spot has been a local gamer’s paradise — and they also happen to serve tasty pizza and beer.

Dorky's Arcade opened in 2010 on Pacific Avenue in Tacoma, where it remains today.

Inside you'll find all kinds of classic arcade games, including pinball and air hockey.

If you ever went to arcades in the 80s, you'll probably recognize quite a few of the games here.

So, why open a vintage arcade instead of a more modern selection? One word: Nostalgia.

And when you get hungry or thirsty, there's no need to leave.

The team here loves beer, and it shows -- you'll have a great selection of both beer and cider to choose from if you decide to imbibe.

Dorky's Arcade is open Tuesday - Sunday, although hours vary.
