Waterland Arcade Bar Is A Charming Neighborhood Arcade By The Beach In Washington

Des Moines is a small city in King County that sits north of Federal Way. While it is a peaceful, quiet, and beautiful place on the east shores of Puget Sound, it's not exactly known for its nightlife. Luckily, there's an arcade bar in town that is not only extremely entertaining but also fun for the whole family. Allow us to introduce Waterland Arcade, a true neighborhood gem.

Waterland Arcade is located in the beautiful Marina District in Des Moines, on Marine View Drive.

It's only a few blocks from several different beach parks and the marina.
