What a great concept...you can rent the entire place for an hour and free play and drink to your hearts desire?!We tried this today with our entire family and had an absolute blast!! Luke and Emily are awesome hosts and the games, beer selection, and safe and secure environment made it such a wonderful time!!We will absolutely be back the next time the family is in town!!

My husband and I went to Quarters on our date night and had a great time! Its beautifully decorated with paintings covering the walls which suit the place perfectly. They give you wrist bands to use to pay for the games and the drinks and I absolutely love that concept. There is a wall lined with spouts to pour your own drinks including beers, ciders, wine, and water. There was a very nice man standing there to explain how it all works. Im not a big beer drinker and you get charged per ounce so it was nice to be able to sample the different beers on tap until I found one I loved! The games are so inexpensive to play that we were able to just play and play without worrying about how much we were spending, and there was a good variety of games to play! We will definitely return!

This place is amazing!!!! We rented for a private party. The beer was amazing and service even better. The two owners are very passionate about this place. Let’s support or local business to keep places like this alive.

Hands down the best place to hang out, have fun, and enjoy good beers in Longmont. I’ve been a part of 4 of their Skeeball leagues and can’t recommend it more to anyone looking for a great thing to do on a random weekday night and meet neighbors. Do yourself a favor and visit.

Just a fun and funky place to hang out. Play some pinball or cool video games. Love the self service beer/wine/cider taps they have. A true Longmont gem

Pretty cool place and definitely worth a visit if you like arcade bars. At first I was put off a little by the size and the self-serve beers. However, this was just my lack of experience with it. The self-serve is pretty cutting edge and now like it more than I thought I would. All I have to say is can we get a little air hockey please?

My kids and I had a blast there. I loved the games took quarters it brought back the old school feel. I loved the beer wrist band technology. Kids loved the skeeball and games. Its a smaller more home feel place than bigger places. I love the concept and the older games and pinball. Owners were super chill and nice. Will bring my boys back.

So Quarters is a great, fun place. Fun for adults & kids. The games they have are ok. They have some room/space issues, so they can fit only so many games in. My only qualm is u wish they had more pinball.But the beers they have on tap are actually quite impressive. I was surprised with their selection.Im NOT, NOT a fan of pouring your own beer but in an arcade, I can see how this works better than your typical brewery environment.Ill definitely go back.Great place! Very kid friendly mind you.

Went here last night for the first time with friends. It wasn’t all that busy which made it nice because we had a chance to try out all of the games. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about their selection of beverages. Prices were reasonable, and I loved the concept of the wristbands. Can’t wait to go back!

This place has an amazing concept and a wonderful selection. Unfortunately, its been completely dead the last few times I went in. The last time, It was just us and the staff and the staff almost seemed annoyed that we wouldnt leave. They didnt say anything, but we got a weird vibe. It was nowhere near closing time and it just felt like they wanted to go home. We will try again and hope for a better time. I will gladly edit this review if things are better. :)

What a find! Rare to find places the old fashioned way by just randomly walking by. Came at 10 and owners stayed open an hour so we could have some great beer and game it up. Highly recommend. The self serve beer wall is awesome. Great selection of beer and classic games.

Review №14

My husband and I came for our anniversary and Im glad we did. There was a good variety of games, plus a machine with lots of classic games in one. You can either choose to wear armbands or simply play with quarters. The armband tech is really convenient. You just hold it up to the machine or the drink you want and it adds it to your tab. You can also control how much alcohol you sample, which is nice for picky drinkers like myself. Trinity was very helpful, friendly, and even offered to give me a refunded credit when I picked a game I didnt mean to. They even advertise other local businesses. I will definitely be back and Ill be spreading the word to co-workers and friends.

Fun for everyone! I loved the opportunity to try a little (or a lot!) of several beers and ciders. The games were fun. Skeeball, pinball, and PacMan were our favorites! We were warmly greeted and felt right at home!

Review №16

This place was a lot more fun than a typical arcade. When you walk in, go straight to the small counter to the right and get your wrist band. This gives you access to the games and all the drinks on tap! They have at least 15 beers, plus wine, hard celtzer and ciders that you pay by the ounce. And they have a decent selection on arcade games from ski ball to pinball and Area51!!! Then when youre done, they add up all the games youve played plus how many ounces youve had to drink. For two people and an hours worth of games it was about $25. I would definitely recommend it for both adults and kids. Theres no food, but you can bring outside food there to eat. They have water to drink, but no ice. We had an absolute blast!

Great beer and cider selection! I love the self serve and being able to get as little as I want at a time. Games are mostly a quarter a piece, so you can get a lot of entertainment without hurting your wallet. It is a relatively small space, dont expect Dave and Busters, but so far it hasnt been crowded. Staff and owners are awesome, fun, flexible with closing time and quick to point out when theres an extra play someone left in a game :-).

Amazing place to hang out. I dragged my wife here for a date night, and eventually joined a skee ball league. It was our date night for the week, and we always had a blast. The owners are amazing and always welcoming.

I love this place!! The owners are personable, and remember my first name upon returning, so that feels great! They have an awesome selection of classic arcade games, plus 3 great new pinball tables (AC/DC, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Walking Dead). Their pinball tables are priced lower than other arcades in the Boulder area, which is nice. Also, the self pour drink area is super convenient. I appreciate this place for being around, and hope it around for a long, long time! Thank you, Quarters!

This place is SO fun. The wristbands they use to keep track of your tab makes the experience so easy (although definitely dangerous as far as overspending goes ;) ) they have all the best arcade games and an impressive self serving bar with lots of options. Cant wait to go back!

Fun place, cool concept. The employees were great and super helpful. Serve your own beer is cool, games are fun. I think the prices are a little steep, but Ill probably be back because its a rad little spot.

Review №27

It was a great time, me and the two kiddos on a Sunday afternoon. Not too busy and a good way to kill a couple hours. Very inexpensive compared to any other arcade joint around. (Especially the wild game!) Great beer selection, with a few ciders and wine choices. Really cool self serve taps. And the staff is very attentive. Its a little small, but if youre only gonna hang out a few hours its perfect. We will be back!

Such a fun place! None other like it that Ive ever been to. I love the bracelet idea, especially since I never have enough change, and the self-service alcohol beverage idea. You can even tap the screen and it gives details on the drinks. Very kid friendly, too!

Some friends and I checked out this place last night, and well definitely be returning! The place is small but well lit and set up nicely so it doesnt feel claustrophobic. We were all impressed with the selection of games and drinks, and the wristband system they have in place is really clever and hassle free. The owners and staff were really friendly and attentive. Cant wait to see this business grow in the following months!

This place is super cute! We throughly have enjoyed our visits here. I have attended happy hours events here that have been public and private. Great space for parties.

Fun little place! Slick bracelet system that unlocks games as well as beer. Tracks and itemizes everything. Not a ton of games, but some good ones. All three pinball machines are fun (Guardians of the Galaxy is a blast) and everything was in good working order. Friendly, helpful staff. Also, note that the Pac-Man Pixel machine has at least 20 classic games on it, so there are more playable games than it would appear at a glance.

We have a great time every time we have gone in whether it’s a girls night or a family outing. The tap wall is super fun and unique! I had never seen one until I went in there. :)Great game selection. My family enjoys the Pac-Man table top game so we can all play, skee-ball and pinball. My husband and I also enjoyed the vintage ninja turtle game!! Go In! It will not disappoint! :)

Really love this place and the people running it. Luke and Emily (and their absolutely incredible staff) are passionate about their business and quick to remember a name to make you feel at home. They have great community events bringing people together for ski ball league, fight night, wall to wall arcade games and a self-service bar with a great beer selection. Come by and help in keeping this place full of good people, great laughs and loud exclamations of victory!

Review №51

Great cozy little barcade. The beer is self-serve - open a tab, get a wristband, and scan the wristband to pour your beer. Wristbands work for the arcade machines too, so you dont have to worry about change. Very reasonably priced too, I was shocked how little an hour and a half and a couple beers cost.

Review №53

A good concept tucked away in Longmont. The bracelets that enable games make it easy to play, and if you are going with friends, makes it easy for fractional pours off of their self pour beer system.On to the beer. A beer list featuring a healthy support of Colorado breweries with options that are likely to please any taste.

Fun arcade with pinball, skeeball and some video games. You get a lot of beer to choices and pour your own. You have a arm scanner to play games and get beer.

Review №55

Self serve and wrist bands are a great idea, but I miss having a bartender to talk to. Unfortunately they only have three pinball machines as well. I think if they had a bigger area, Quarters could really thrive. I hope in the future they will be able to move to a bigger location and add more pinball machines like Tilt, Flipside or Pinball Jones.

GO HERE NOW! Super fun, nice selection of beer. Really well set up, nice selection of classic arcade games and newer versions of pinball machines with classic layouts. You pay for beer/cider/wine by the ounce and pour yourself so you get as much as you want and can try everything. Great BANGAIN for the amount of ENJOYMENT had.

Review №63

Ok, I really like this place. First off it is a small arcade. Second, it is a neat beer joint. Oh and filled with magical technology. You get a wristband upon entering. You band unlocks the games for play. Your band then unlicks the beer. Yup!Your wristband tracks each tap you try. You pay by the ounce. So if you thought the bark beer was going to be tastey you can try a short pour. Didnt like that, then try the sour, or IPA, or the wine.Only bummer is how small this place is. I look forward to this place being here for a long time!

Review №72

Edit: cant seem to reply to Owner but, the very first game I played was the Shoot-Em-Up 1942 and as I put a quarter in the machine the staff said use the Right Side! And it didnt take my quarter (using the left side quarter slot) and I replied Oh, does the left side just not work? To which they replied Most of the time... But we fix it...Also, compared to The One Up, or Press Play, or literally any other Barcade except for Dave & Busters, the games at Quarters are a bit overpriced. I didnt bother sticking around for a drink so I cant comment on their drink prices.*********** End Edit ***********Definitely has potential, but poorly maintained games, coupled with relatively high prices per play, very limited selection, and kinda Meh, whatever vibe from staff leads me personally to just go to Press Play in Boulder instead.

Review №78

Do not work here. If you do...Expect to be told they dont require to give you a break during a 15 hour shift and expect you to work more than they should as owners. Will complain if you take your breaks even though they are required to give two 15 minute breaks and a 1/2 hour one. You will also have to deal with Emily who is rude and gossips to employees about others personal issues. Oh and they will make it harder for you to get your paycheck on time. No understanding for family values at all.
