Me and my girlfriend came here for a night out not too long ago, as you walk in you get hit with this amazing smell that they use which really gives the place it’s own unique identity, at the entrance we were given two free drink tokens each as well as 25 machine tokens which were more than enough for the time we were there, although after you’ve used the drinks tokens the drinks do get quite expensive. It has really cool designs all along the walls the stretch as far as the toilets which i thought was a nice touch. There was a wide selection of machines and consoles to play on like Just Dance, Basketball and MarioKart, although some of the machines were a bit faulty and the steering wheels didn’t seem to work as they should, they also had original Xbox’s and 360’s which we spent quite a bit of time on playing Halo and the old Forza games. There was a photo booth which we used to take some pictures together, we did have to pay extra for it but in my opinion was worth it. Before we left we ordered the “Spice City” sharer cocktail which definitely takes an acquired taste to enjoy if you haven’t had any drinks beforehand but i still enjoyed, and a pizza at one of the tables using a QR code which was quite expensive for what it was although still okay. Overall we had a great time and will definitely come back.

First time visiting and will definitely be back again, not expensive, and there are lots of free games. Really good amount of drinks at reasonable price. Staff are really helpful. Personally due to my preference in games this one is the better of the 2 in Manchester

Immaculate atmosphere, heavy retro-vibes, old-school machines / games, video game inspired cocktails with all the little extras that come with, and perfect music choice, hard to go wrong here. They don’t serve food but you can order from Crazy Pedros upstairs, just keep in mind whatever offer’s Pedros have on won’t be applied when ordering it to NQ64, so it’ll be full price.

What's not to like about this place? Great games, drinks and staff. Love the decor and the playlist. Had a few issues with one machine (understandable given the age of the kit) but the staff immediately replaced the tokens, no problem. Such a good place for nostalgia and the consoles being free of charge just round it off as being a great night out. Didn't get food but the Pedros Pizzas looked pretty decent 👌 😋

Great bar with plenty of different retro games to play, food is good. Service is average but the staff are nice. Plenty of room for seating in all party sizes. It’s a dark place when you go into the arcade and they have a good range of drinks. The outside area has plenty of seating, it is a very chilled out area with its own bar.
