Privilege
Awesome place!! They have a huge selection of beers and arcade games that you get for free for buying a drink. Had SUCH a good time cannot even stress it enough!!
MoreCool spot, love the Old Fashions. Games controls need maintenance but I still had a great time. Parking nearby was expensive because I thought I extended my stay but it never went through and now I spent an extra $63 to play retro games.
MoreLove Glitch! Great games and great drinks. Now, good food, too. Plus, they rotate all of it every few months. So the games and cocktails change up every few months.The environment is great and the service is always top. Plus, you can take kids before 8pm to play games with a paid wristband. Mine love it!
MoreGreat place to have a craft cocktail and place some of the best old school video games! Fun fun fun!
MoreHad plenty fun here. Felt like a kid again with the throwback games. A fun place for a date and good vibes. Drinks were ok.
MoreThis place is great. The complimentary arcade has something for everyone. Bring quarters for the pinball machines though. Great place for a date night. Really fun vibe. Drink a beer while you play some vintage arcade games.
MoreWhat an amazing experience. What wrong with great drinks and free video games. Its a must try for anyone who loves drinking and gaming
MoreThis bar/arcade was so fun! The drinks were good and they were playing the BEST music! 🎶🤘
Morebar is great, drinks are great VIBE And music are great BUT IF YOU PARK AROUND THERE AND SEE A SIGN FOR Professional Parking Management PARK SOMEHWERE ELSE
MoreMy second time in last night. Gave bartender my card to hold while we play game and have our drinks .. I go and ask for the card back to cash out and instead of asking me what form of payment he just assumed and charged my card. I gave it to them as a place holder.. I thought I was suppose to get the option of how I want to pay.. I usually pay everything with cash so I was upset at the situation and his reaction was a smile and oh Im sorry.. like hello how long have you been a bartender. What if I wanted to use a different card or other payment Just inconsider with his reaction.And the only.good thing about that place is the pinball but its in a back room and you have to pay to play each game. ( free games with admission of a drink purchase but pinball is not free.
MoreSuper cool place. Great music and tons of free video games.
Love this place! Great option if you want something more casual!
My favorite retro gaming bar in Ft lauderdale! It’s right by downtown and in a kinda trendy area with a kava bar next door. They started a “cover” since COVID but I get it and it’s reasonable (1 drinkso I don’t mind. Love that all their arcade games are unlocked and the super smash/Mario kart station in the back is always packed! Lastly, parking is free (might be changing soonand they have a food truck out almost every time I’ve gone.
MoreJohn Wick cocktail is delicious, this bar is gorgeous and fun. Love the retro decor and all the arcade machines. Games are set to free play which means you can beat the games from your childhood you werent able to back then.
MoreIf you like Retro Vibes this is a really cool spot. They have every beer you can think of, free arcade games, and songs that get the crowd singing in unison. I loved being able to drink an IPA I never heard of and then go head to head in street fighter with some random woman and then walk to the back and watch the most intense match of super smash brothers that I have ever seen.
MoreOooommmgggg MY INNER CHILD LIT UP!! I didnt know what to expect going into this Retro, LED lit up Dive Bar with the COOLEST old school video games we all know and loved!! My favorite was this Beehive Game where you have a team of 4 on each side and you have to ride the tractor to the other end. Once you start, YOU DONT STOP! My other fav was the big Pac-Man game. Honestly everything was cool! It was a VIBE! Even the music brought me back to my high school years with some Panic of the Disco, The Killers, Green Day lol and so much more!
MoreOne of my favorite places to hangout with friends of you like to play arcade games. Weekends is always pack with people and so far everytime I go there the crowd is singing and dancing to the dj on the weekends. There is different music every night, but if you want less of a crowd I recommend to go during the weekdays to get your gaming on. Lots of old school arcades games that really brings you back to the 80s especially for those like me who grew up in the 80s. They also have food at the bar area and an outdoor seating area. What is also awesome about this place is the location! Youll see why when you get there if youre never been before. 😉
MoreI loved the atmosphere ...fair prices and a good time.. the concept of retro games os cool but i wish someone would do something like cutting edge with the games ...alot of them are the games i never ever played even when i was a kid ...no roadblasters or gauntlet, no xmen or Golden Axe ? Wheres all the arcade legends ? Lets get some top gaming systems in here !!!! Still i had fun
MoreReally cool bar with all sorts of games but mainly retro arcade games. Great bar and food selection and awesome bartenders. Its kinda small and does get packed, but the music was great and the vibe was good. My best friend enjoyed her birthday and I will definitely be back next time Im in town visiting.
MoreI had a great time when I came for happy hour. The games were fun and the crowd was even better.I had a strange interaction w/ one of the bartender staff. Ordered my last drink for HH with a minute to spare. Serves my drink and before I can pick it up , proceeds to explain HH just ended, takes the same drink back and serves me again to up charge me 🤦🏽♂️
MoreLoved this bar. Super cute and tons of fun!! Loved how we could play games while we drink, and the murals outside were pretty cool. They had tables outside which I also loved, and they sell food as well. The drinks were amazing too!!! Really liked this cute spot!
MoreAbsolutely awesome place for all ages. Great set up- Dj booth covered in tapes, beer taps cover ceiling along with amazing collectibles. But the employees were just not nice- no personality. And just oddly rude for the innovative hip place it was. We were literally the only ones there it’s not like they were too busy to be human.
MoreCool spot to grab a drink and play games w friends.. Nice selection of retro and new arcade games I have new seen before. They offer craft beers, cocktails, and even food. Honestly I only made made this review because of the turkey sandwich I had 1 or 2 weeks ago lol.. whoever is back there in the kitchen just know that I appreciate you. ❤️
More10/10 recommend - parent approved - lol awesome place for a date night away from the kids! Amazing quesadillas and pizza and drinks. Not bad in price, video games and music on point! It’s a whole vibe. I read the bad reviews and not accurate. No bartenders were rude, they are doing their job! The entire staff was amazing, checking the place all the time.If you don’t know where to go or what to do, just head over here! Won’t regret it 🤙🏽
MoreGlitch is a great place to hangout, their drinks are good and the overall atmosphere is really nice! It gets super busy on Friday and the weekends as expected and can get too crowded to enjoy myself (ofc this isnt Glitchs fault Im happy they are getting good recognition!Otherwise it a really cool place, if there is anything Id change it would be the bathrooms, they can get pretty nasty.
MoreSuper cool place to get an escape after work or on weekends.
I had to remove a few stars.The atmosphere is generally great but on my last visit an employee barked at a few people I was playing with because their drinks were not in the cup holders. It was embarrassing because I raved about how cool this place is to a friend who was visiting from out of town.Based on his behaviour, I’ll assume he was a manager or owner.I’ve never experienced anything like that and it was pretty disgusting. His attitude needs to be addressed and he needs to be trained on interacting better with customers. Taking out your frustration on others is not okay.Just prior to the encounter I had an empty can in the same spot and a female employee asked me nicely if I was done and simply removed it.
MoreSuper great staff, strong drinks, and fun games. The killer queen scene is hella friendly and competitive too if you want to get gud.
MoreA great experience with a novel concept: purchase a single drink or wristband in order to gain access to a slew of free arcade games. The staff and the patrons were extremely friendly and they also had Star Wars Episode 1 playing. Ive never seen that movie but it aided in the atmosphere I think. Ill definitely return if Im ever in the area
MoreI was charged 25ish for a lemon drop in a plastic party cup... no sugar no garnish.. the national avg price for a lemon drop martini is $7ish as a bartender my self we charge $13.53 after taxes at my bar.. when I asked her about it she gave me attitude and told me to pay. The place is awesome ! Except that part honestly...
MoreFun night out! My husband and I went here to grab some drinks and play the arcade games. It was a fun time. In the back of the building they have Mario cart set up. And that’s where we spent the majority of the night considering we both love Mario lol. The drinks were great and the environment was so positive and fun! There are many different games to choose from so you won’t be disappointed.
MoreFun idea and pretty good drinks overall. The game selection was kinda lame, with like 25% being all Japanese games where you can’t read anything, and another 25% being games that aren’t really household names. I think it’s a niche vibe and the people that love it REALLY love it. Which is cool. Just not my scene.
MoreEasily one of my fave bars of all time. Come in, buy a drink, get a wristband, and play unlimited old school arcade games to your hearts desire for free. Fast/good bar service too. Not sure which part I like most - the games, the concept, or the music (house/EDM). I can’t wait to go back!
MoreI am a huge fine of dive bars. And this spot kinda gave me those vibes! Wow what an experience coming here!! I highly recommend coming out to this spot.They have sitting along the wall of the building with picnic tables to sit and vibe outside and you can take your beer out. Once inside they have three different menus on a TV with a ton of beer options!! I highly recommend the guava cider and the apple pie cider, omg there both delicious. I had three beers and spent 25. The bartender was so amazing!!!! Like amazing service for sure! And my other girl friend tried different beers that he recommended and he nailed them all! So good. Once you buy one drink you get given a wrist band to play the arcade games. They also serve food but I didnt have any. There are a ton of different options and new stuff and old school arcades. They also have Mario Cart and super smash. The music was great not sure if they play rock and roll all the time but when I was there thats what they were playing and I wasnt mad about that lol.Really great to kill some time, try new beers and play some arcade games. Definitely coming back for sure!!!
MoreWent for the first time lastnight with my husband, and had a great time! The bartender was very nice and accommodating. I ordered the Bomb Pop and The Cherry Lime drink. Arcade was pretty cool and the atmosphere was electric. Fun place, would definitely visit again!!
MoreReally cool bar. Buy a drink at the bar to get a wristband and have unlimited access to old and new arcade games and video games. Anything from PacMan to Skee Ball, from Tekken to Super Mario Kart. Awesome bar with reasonable drink prices (5 beers for $20)
MoreEpic place Seriously brought back some memories from my childhood and the price point was perfect. I would definitely be checking this place out again when I traveled back to Fort Lauderdale with my family.
MoreHow good can a review be? I love the place, its both trendy and low key, busy while up close personal, has a heaving dance floor with a basement vibe. What comes out of the kitchen was the biggest surprise, best sandwich? What? Had to come back three days later try it again sober just to be sure. Rambo is officially the best meat ball sandwich ever served in town. Also, snail victory is the best victory. Thanks guys
MoreFun late night hangout! Simple concept, amazing execution. Walk in, buy a drink, get a wristband that allows you to play unlimited games. The back area is littered with arcade classics and some new additions, while the bar area has an amazing drink selection and a pretty solid old-fashioned for a bar-cade. Did not try the food this go around, but will definitely be returning to experience more of this nostalgic and late night vibe.
MoreOne of the best arcade bars in the state. They have a very unique game selection and a great variety of craft beers.
MoreWhat a great place! Love the games, love the vibe, love the drinks and the food is awesome! It’s a little loud but it is an arcade and a bar so it is to be expected. The Classic games are a blast from the past and I am amazed at the selection. Great place to take the whole family before 8 and an awesome place for adults after…
MoreGet your game on, retro style. Pacman and all live here. Order a drink and get a wrist band for free game play. The food is good as well but this is an awesome venue for a super fun date night. Plan accordingly, weekends are very full and you may have to wait your turn to play.
MoreAbsolutely amazing. My sister and cousin took me for my birthday. Buy a drink and you get to play a tasteful assortment of free play classic arcade games, as well as fun multiplayer console games, like Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. I discovered a Darius arcade machine next to the console stations in the back, and engrossed myself in nostalgia for an hour. The decor is captivating. Perfect arcade dark atmosphere, with lots of glowy neon signs and UV reactive bits. Will definitely visit again when Im down in the area.
MoreProbably one of the best bars Ive been to. So much fun in one place for a geek like me 🤓
MoreThis place was super fun, I went with a group of friends and we got the slushie flights (you can try 4 mini samples of all their slushies!!and played a few rounds of Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart on their old school Nintendo 64! It has a very chill laid back vibe and bring your loose change and coins cause there are TONS of arcade games and other things to do! Also, some nights they do drag shows and special events so keep an eye on there Instagram!
MoreThis bar is such an awesome place! From the drinks, to the food, to the games and vibes here are immaculate! Will definitely be returning when in the area! The staff is so nice and down to earth! GO HERE if in the area.
MoreDelicious cocktails with a great variety to choose from and plenty of local and domestic beers. Arcade games are FREE with drink purchase. Bartenders very attentive and quick to fill your orders!
MoreHIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Great hang out spot with friends and those close family members that are actually fun (and not super awkwardto hang out with! Great vibes and staff here that provide excellent customer service and really makes you feel comfortable. They also have a pretty good selection of arcade games. P.S. I was slightly maybe...kinda...tipsy while writing this. The cocktails are OBVIOUSLY doing their job!! 🤣👍🏾
MoreLoved this place! So fun. They have all the arcades of the 90s, pinball, ski ball, and video games. The drink selection is great too. The graffiti art outside makes a statement as well. We were looking for something to do after dinner late on a weekday and Glitch didnt disappoint. The arcades were free too minus pinball! Such a great place.
MoreId say this is a really cute place to go on a date or to kick it with friends. They have an extensive beer collection, lots of space, and a DJ booth.. they were playing music and videos from the 80s when I was there, which was really cool and went along with the retro theme. My favorite part was their attention to detail when it came to the decor. There was one team member in particular, I forgot her name but she has a short, asymmetrical bob and her face was beat - she made sure we were doing alright all night, but not in a pushy or annoying way, and we even had a casual conversation outside that felt pretty genuine (thanks for being real, girl!Good luck yall.
