What a cool spot with a great beer selection. The staff here is super nice and attentive. Great place to watch the Chewbacca parade.

I planned a birthday party for my significant other and it came out really amazing. The service was amazing, Evan was my bartender who took care of us and she was amazing. When we came back the next day, she remembered our drinks like a pro. Mike was the manager who hosted us that night and he genuinely made is feel at home and truly welcomed. I highly recommend Emporium especially for anyone who would like to host a birthday party or an event with Arcade and drinks🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾 Thank you Emporium team.

IMMACCULATE vibes. Perfect spot for elder millennials like myself to enjoy strong drinks for a fair price while engaging with a large selection of nostalgic games and a 90s/2000s playlist that absolutely slaps. Token prices are totally reasonable ($5 for 20) and all the games are in remarkable shape for how old they are. My partner and I had such a genuinely fun time and the bartender is incredible at her job.

This place is awesome and has great retro vibes! The games are all maintained and fully functional. They have everything from Skee ball to tons of pinball options, Area 51, Pool Tables, Cruis'n USA and more...! Another atmosphere thing that MUST be pointed out is the music selection, on point and I wish I had that playlist! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
