Best Game Room Bars & Cafes in Manhattan
Meko Rooks
In New York, if you want to make it in the restaurant or bar biz, you have to be unique. So a lot of places will do things to try to make themselves different from the average bar or restaurant. Enter, the Game Room Bar. These bars & restaurants offer different types of games you can enjoy during your visit - from giant jenga, to arcade games, to the classic board game, you can expect to have some fun competition with whomever you're enjoying your time out with.
These bars & restaurants are great to go to with groups of friends, or on a date. You'll be able to enjoy good food, drinks, & lots of fun while you're there!
Most of these spots have a bar-like atmosphere, but I've included one that's more of a cafe, in case you're not always looking for a night out!

This is literally a bar just full of arcade games. So you can play Pacman or other games while you're drinking. It's pretty fun!

This bar turns into a nightclub at night, but they have giant games you can play at any time. Sometimes they'll have live music. And they have a giant slide you can slide down. It's super Instagrammable.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Motherhood With No Limits🤱🏽 🛫
Hi! I'm a lifestyle blogger and social influencer. Being a native New Yorker has given me the ability to transition from the fast-paced city life to balancing a family while continuing to travel & explore. I have a passion for trying new foods, discovering underwater life, learning new cultures, and exploring different countries.
I'm born and raised in New York & have lived there for over 20 years now! I love traveling abroad with my kids (and without them), but when I'm home, I love exploring my City. My favorite things to do in NY are to look for new pop up activities. Depending on what season or holiday is happening, there's always a fun event going on. I also love rooftop bars & enjoying the city views.
I'm a foodie at heart so that's the number one thing I get asked for recommendations. Food & nightlife in the City. I also love to find a lot of fun unique activities for the kids because I love getting my kids out of the house to explore parks & indoor activities.
I've been featured in publications such as HuffPost, SkyScanner, Travel Noire, The Points Guy, & Seeker for my NYC & other travel expertise.
