The Baxter Arcade

Excellent options for arcade games and pinball, ample amounts of space and a decent beer selection. I left out stars in the food department merely due to fact that there isn't food available but every other facet is on point. Never tough to get timely service.

Being Gen X, I loved being able to play all my old favorite arcade games here. Loved the pinball machines too. The new mandolorian pinball game was awesome. Great atmosphere. We went on the weekend for family day. My kid is grown, but I loved seeing the younger kids being able to play the vintage games. The bar has other events like trivia, so I will definitely go back!

Awesome arcade bar. Interesting selection of beers, including some cool local breweries (I got a great milk stout), and a small set of beers on tap. Plenty of places to sit inside and a few tables outside. The vibe of the place, including the staff, is genuinely cool. There are a few machines (20 or so) that mainly consist of pinball with videogames. Games usually cost $0.5 in quarters, although it could be more (pinball $1). It's okay, but it does let you get carried away as in other arcades that charge to get in or only charge for the drinks. Pretty lively for a mid-June Tuesday night. If I lived in Chapel Hill I'd visit them often.

Came here after dinner for my partner’s mother’s birthday and 5 minutes after we arrived they started a holiday-themed trivia night. Had so much fun and ended up staying longer than we had anticipated. Cannot wait to go back next time we’re in town!

I went here with my sister and her boyfriend while visiting them. It is a very unique and fun place. We went to watch the UNC game and enjoy some drinks. It was nice that it wasn't too crowded, so we could grab a table and play some games. They have a nice selection of drinks and everyone was very friendly. Definitely worth checking out.
