One of the best places to have fun in Tampa. Good drinks and a fun assortment of games. The staff is one of the best and most attentive bar staff I have ever met. The owner Rob is always there and such an amazing bar owner! I wish I could give them more than five stars. This place rocks and I suggest it to everyone I know.
Emma is the most attentive bartender! She always makes the best recommendations when I tell her what I am looking for in a beer. Everyone is so amazing, the atmosphere is great, the food is great, and the drinks are great. My new go to!
This is an awesome place. Theres a great selection of classic and new pinball machines and arcades, and a wide variety of tasty craft beer. Be sure to stop in!
We wanted to go somewhere to drink and play games. Well this was by far the best arcade bar in the area for as drink selection and old school games. The games are reasonably priced which is hard to find. And the beer selection gives you a little bit of everything for everyone. The staff was very nice and helpful when choosing my beer and games.
Very good place. Despite the pandemic being around, it still stays safe. Plently of games, good food and a huge choice selection of beer. Cant wait to come again
Very rude, unpleasant server. Think her name was Emily or Emma. The place itself was pretty nice but would never return due to their customer service. Hire competent, friendly staff.
Best barcade in town. Everyone there is super nice, arcade and pinball machines are kept in pristine working order. I dont drink but they have a huge selection of beer as well.
Friendly atmosphere and staff.. only serves beer.. lots of retro games.. cute theme..
We had a lot of fun! I felt like they had a good setup for social distancing and everything was clean. They had sanitizer to use after you were done with a game and everything was spaced out. The games were good and they had a good drink selection. Staff was very friendly and helpful too!
Always come back here such a chill place and great craft beer choices, very affordable and relaxed environment . 10 out of 10.
Was here on Saturday night. Emmy was great
Nice drinks and nice retro games, even tho they have a few is still a nice place to be with friends or family
Arcade theme. Pretty barmaid. Not much going on.
Incredible selection of craft beer and wine. Fun and nostalgic arcades and pinball machines. But the best part is the friendly, knowledgeable staff who make it a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone.
Love this place arcade an a bar gotta love it
Fun place to grab a drink and play old school games with your friends. Makes you feel like a kid again— well plus the alcohol lol.
Really cool unique place. If you like good craft beer and old arcade video games this is the place for you.They have a wide selection of unique craft beers and then you can get tokens to play the various arcade games. We went on the 2-year anniversary so a lot of the games were free. They have some cool pinball machines.The games range from everything from Street Fighter to NBA Jam to Skeeball, etc. Pretty cheap for all of them. They have a lot of cool specials during different days of the week.I definitely recommend checking it out!
I didnt know this place existed a couple months ago but its a really cool place! If you have a nostalgia for old games youll especially love this place. They provide spaces for you to bring your own system to play games as well.
Games, beers, good ppl and now food+++what more do you need!!!
Bring out the inner child in you! I have no clue why I have not been to the Lowry Parkade before but Im glad I visited. They have all the popular arcade games and plenty of really cool pinball machines. The topper is their craft beer selection which is well thought of and includes local favorites.The staff are very friendly, professional and courteous.There is really is just no place like it in Tampa, great beer, video games and awesome ambiance.
My experience at Lowry Parcade was great! They offer a unique selection of local craft beer. At this bar you can find ping ball machines, retro gaming consoles, and several arcade machines. The atmosphere is relax and it feels like your entering into a different era. The staff gave great customer service. Come visit!
Cozy place with tons of pinball machines and retro arcade cabinets. They offer many local brewed beers and ciders. Lots of seating including an outdoor seating area. Overall atmosphere is fun, friendly and cozy.
It was an awesome place. Great people. Awesome setting. I was there on a Saturday so they had live music. Which was cool.
1st visit and wont be the last. We came on a night with nerd burlesque. It was amazing. The games were great. It is a little tight in the building, but customers are super nice as well. They dont serve food, but a food vendor was outside and yoj are allowed to bring it in. No smoking allowed inside. They serve beer, ciders, and wine. Prices for games and drinks were good.
My son and I went there. This is my second time. We had a good time. They have craft beer, video games a pool table and board games you can sit down and play. The video games take tokens.
This place is amazing! Great craft beers, atmosphere, and fun retro games. You can tell the owner Robert loves his business!
Quaint little joint packed with arcade and pinball games. They serve craft beers and ciders and often host a variety of gaming events. Well worth popping in to check it out
Perfect for date night or hanging with the crew. I have so many memories of some of the games they have. The game selection is always changing and there are tons of beers and even some non-alcoholic options for those of us who arent drinking.
Beer is a little pricey, but worth it. A dollar in tokens goes a long way. Catch their specials, play some games and make new friends. Great place to enjoy yourself for a couple hours.
This joint is just FUN. There are so many awesome games to play and the staff is kind. The beer is delicious and range in price. You can have something cheap or fancy! Yum yum gimmee some Nintendo fun!
Its got a cool feel, but I want better board games on the shelf. If some quality board game themed events pop up Id love to make this a new regular spot!
I didnt know that this place existed but it is awesome. It was cool to be in a spot where you are around other gamers. Pretty cool atmosphere
Great spot to chill and relive some childhood memories playing old school arcade games. Great selection of pinball machines, and a surprisingly large selection of beers on tap.
Pinball and an awesome beer selection.
Great game and beverage selection. Every game was in excellent working condition. Cool employees and crowd.
I like this place.. variety of old arcade games and pinball.....it gets packed. Good variety of beers. Bar staff could be a little more friendly
Great spot to go head to head with friends, or relax and people watch. Grab a beer from an amazing collection, including a root beer from Abita on tap!!! SkeeBall is a must, and I was truly amazed by the number of pinball machines.
So much fun. Great staff. Good game selection. Smash Brothers by the bar is where youll find me
First time visiting, and I was impressed. Superb little hang out. Will definitely be stopping by again soon
What a great little spot!
Great bar. Ive enjoyed it every time Ive gone. Drinks arent expensive, arcade games are fun. Some of the games are classics, others are forgettable, but all in all its a great experience. Classic consoles compliment the arcade games, and even if youre not playing theres a great atmosphere where you can enjoy watching other people who are. Have been here many times and will keep coming back.
My friends loved it. Delicious beer, relaxed, theyll let you bring your own food and they even have a day to bring your dog! Great games! Excellent!
Great beer and great atmosphere. A good amount of games to play by yourself or friends. Definitely be coming back and telling friends about it.
Great place chill vibe. I recommend to many of my friend for a chill night of gaming.
Had a ball playing Ms Pacman, Galaxy, Elvira Pinball, Tetris. Really enjoyed hanging with my Hubby, youngest Son & future Daughter-in-law.
This place rocks!!! Craft beers. Old school arcade games, old fashion pinball and new ones. We go every chance we get
My young nephew and I had a fun time playing skee ball and bubble hockey. Great selection of local beers.
Loved this place. Not many games though. I didnt like the gender neutral bathrooms because the security peed on the seat. Lift the seat next time.
Good drinks, nice staff, fun games.
The best place ever for 80s babys. A little small for all the games they have. But great environment
Great games, great beer. Great vibes and great employees. The employees are very helpful and eager to help you choose the right drink. Games average a quarter a piece. Awesome and inexpensive date night. They host events and theme nights as well.
Fun place. Great beer selection. Fun games to play. I would recommend.
Lowry Parcade always has an amazing beer selection and a great variety of games! A great hidden gem in the Tampa Bay area
An amazing cornucopia of classic games and pinball. Bartenders are super helpful. Im not even a big drinker and they found me a cider that I love! Go there. Its really good!
Love to get my game on here...all the oldies like Galaga, Pac Man...etc...great pub as well! The owner very generously allows a non profit one evening each month to receive funds that customers used to play games. Thanks to the owner & the community who showed up to help support the Autism Awareness Shop!
Great venue Rob and his staff have made this place feel welcoming and old school with all the retro arcade games. The beer selection is great and they now have food trucks as well so that is a plus. My only issue is parking, which has been resolved due to parking at the side businesses but it can be bad sometimes. Also the pool table is sort of in a not too good spot, located near bar and you have to literally avoid hitting people. Otherwise I would recommend this place, to anyone that is interested in retro arcade games.
Love this place. Great selection of games and awesome staff.
Really cool retro-gamer bar with a good variety of craft beers. Prices are reasonable and it seems like they bring in food and merchandise vendors from time to time. This is good but also limits the already scarce seating in the bar. The games are as fun as always and cost ~$.25 to play (and some beers come with tokens). This contrasts with some other arcade/bar locations that essentially allow you to play for free as you drink. Kind of a give and take. Worth checking out though!
An awesome place for those of us that grew up in the arcade machine era.
Games are in excellent condition and well maintained. Craft beer is priced very well. Great place to bring the kiddos and have a blast on a budget to have an awesome time. Kicking myself for not coming here sooner. Played Ninja Turtles with my 4 and 7 year old for 20 mins asking myself why I didnt bring them here sooner! Big ups to the owner for bridging the gap between my childhood and parenthood!
Classic games. Good beer list. Old building but 10/10 bathrooms. Really cool spot.
This place is AMAZING! It brought back great childhood memories of spending hours in the arcade. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. They asked if it was my first time there, then proceeded to give me a rundown of everything. They have tons of pinball machines, old school arcade games, and others. I had hours of fun for $10 in tokens. Additionally, they have a tremendous selection of craft beer. There was plenty of staff on hand, so the wait at the bar was minimal. There is no food, but a food truck was present on the Friday I visited. I will definitely be returning.
Rock out! Good beer, good games, good food from food truck, and fairly good music for an arcade
Awesome craft beer bar and arcade. patio out front is nice to smoke and bring dogs. great staff and awesome beer selection. killer pinball games new and vintage.
Such a unique experience, in-between bar and arcade museum, I had an amazing time!!
Excellent spot to relax and have a drink. Good atmosphere, nice drink selection overall I had a good time.
Cool atmosphere, bunch of games and sweet specials.. went there on a Monday where they do a free play event. Half the games didnt cost a thing. The other half I was more than happy to throw my tokens at. I will definitely be returning with friends. Beer was good but the games are better! Cant believe it took me this long to find this joint, love me some retros!
Awesome place,great staff.great beer.Wonderful old school games.
Amazing is all I can say. It was very welcoming and my daughter loved it. The drinks were amazing and it was overall great.
Underwhelming. Poor review is for one MAJOR flaw with this place. Lowry Parcade went out of their way to install extra short paddles on every pinball machine...so they can take more of your money as fast as possible by making the games too hard. Below is a pic of Terminator 2 by Williams inside Lowry Parcade. Google it and you’ll see the paddles are supposed to be 1/4”+ longer.
Nice selection of beers, pinball, arcade classics. Whats not to love?
Very cool retro bar/arcade (hence the name Im sure) with food!! Great date spot!!
Stopped in to play some classic arcade games with friends..a lot of games are 25¢ or 50¢..draft beer and draft root beer!! Food truck outside and over 21 after 9pm..all the classics..multiple streetfighters, NFL blitz, pool, 20+ pinballs, air hockey, Packman and others!
Great place to have some fun
Awesome concept. Havent been to one of thes before and it was really fun!
Love this place. I feel back in the 80s/90s... just having a good time, enjoying an awesome game of Street Fight an what not
My go to spot, ride there for a beer and games. Everyones really cool and the staff, engaging.
The place is retro and I love it! Definitely dig the arcade games and they have the best sales and craft beers Ive had yet!
This is a really cool bar. The atmosphere is really chill. Lots of fun retro games to play. Was there on a Thursday when they have free to play Nintendo games. They have several token machines, but I just wish they had an ATM so I could get some cash (lets be honest... some MORE cash) to buy some tokens.
The best place in Tampa. Full of wonderful games, creative drinks, and fun people. Events happen often in an easy to track manner. I’d highly recommend it.
Fun arcade with classic games and a great tap list of beers to choose from!
So much fun! Great place! Need to go back. Friends and I haf so much fun playing games. Good drinks!
So much fun. Vintage video games like Joust, Tetris, and Donkey Kong with a tons of pinball machines. I loved seeing multigenerational people in all sorts of attire from casual to date night dress. Although they have a bar with a variety of craft beer, I stuck to the arcade area. There was a food truck outside and tables set up for people to enjoy burritos and tacos. Fun, casual and inexpensive. A great place to spend a Friday night.
Beer is alittle pricey, but great place to have a good time
Never a dull moment here. Ive always had a good time with friends. Different specials going on every night as far as the games go, great craft beers, awesome root beer on tap for non drinkers, and a food truck on the Fridays that Ive gone. Staff was even helpful when some of the older, but fun, games eat your tokens. My friends and I visit often for a guys night
This is the real deal. A family friendly retro arcade with a slew of fresh brews. The bar tenders are very friendly and knowledgably helpful with making decisions on what flavor you might want to savor.
Great atmosphere, incredible drink selection and a great staff
This is one our favorite places to visit. The games are fun and the beer selection is wonderful. I like that the bartender always takes time to help find the right beer and has knowledge of beers. I’ve never felt like the bartender was too busy to help me at the Parcade. I also love that there’s food trucks!
Love the place. Great atmosphere, good people and fun games. Could have a better drink specials but other than that theres no other place like it!
