Only one thing. I can’t believe you do not have Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 arcade cabinet.
Fun space but 4/4 of the games we tried to play were broken. Would update if they fixed all the broken joysticks
Really cool space, like 3 spots in one, great outside music venue, awesome sports bar/brewery and an arcade bar. What more could you ask for
Great atmosphere! Came here on a Tuesday and to my surprise there was free pinball. Great selection of drinks! My only gripe would be that for my $6 beer tab, the suggest tip included a 45% option… eeek. Not sure if this is a Kentucky thing, but in Michigan 10-20% is the normal.
Cool little spot in Lexington. Great pinball set up inside the arcade, a venue next door (cover charge), & a brewery all in 3 buildings in a tucked away spot. We were from out of town & just popped through. Looks like a wide range of people go there. Recommended for singles lol
