Neighborhood: Nove Mesto (New Town)
Nearly 700 hundred meters long, Wenceslas Square represents the most frequent and buzzing crossroads of the city. The National Museum in the upper part of the square watches over your spending spree in countless shops and retail stores lining the entire square, which ends at Na Příkopě, the most famous shopping street. When tired or broke, you can explore the city's underpasses, which can take you to the Old Town or to the courtyards of art nouveau houses with secret gems of greenery, white benches and rose bushes that provide unexpected peace in the midst of the city. Be sure to pay a visit to the traditional cafés, classic Czech pubs, cinemas and theaters. National Theater near the river has a lot to offer to foreigners. Go to the river bank and enjoy live music and drinks while watching a sunset behind Prague Castle.

The place was easy find using google maps and it's pretty centrally located it's only like a 5 minute walk from the high street.
The drinks and good and the prices are reasonable. The machines are 10Kc and 20Kc for the pinball ones which is cheap.
If you're into your arcade games I'd recommend popping down but there isn't much of a variation of machines, I've been to similar places in the UK and one in Krakow and they all had a lot more availability.
The staff are friendly too which is a bonus, I'm glad I went it's a good place to kill an hour.

I came with my two friends and we had a really good hour with playing air hockey and drinking delicious сzech beer. I really like their graffiti inside the bar. I would like to highlight separately graffiti in the WC room, I think lovers of street art really enjoy it. Specially I did.
So, if you like old arcade automats,video games, graffiti, good music and fresh drinks of course, you definitely should visit this place.
And one little minus – they take cash only. It may be uncomfortable for someone

90’s vibe right in the Prague’s city center. Arcades brings me back to my childhood and the bar is full of every type of alcohol you can imagine. The bartender Fanda can mix every single cocktail in very professional way and the place is usually full of young and beautiful girls. I guess just because of him.
10 of 10 for many great parties I’ve had there.

Spent around 90mins here playing all the pinball machines which were from the late 90s early 2000. Cost was about 35p a go. Beer was about 2 quid a pint. Cash only. It does look a bit seedy at night going down the alleyway, but I felt very safe (as I did all over prague). Yes, the toilets are not good, but not all places are perfect. Worth a visit

Beer and gaming, great way to spend the evening. Amazing selection of games to fill your time and bring back memories and great selection of beers on tap. This one is out the way in a random shopping mall but don’t let it fall you, this place is a hidden gem.

Good concept and something different. On our visit a number of machines 6 or 7 where not working which Limited choices. Am reflects the score given. All the pin ball machines worked. Worth a visit once everything is working.

What a hidden gem in Prague! We only knew about this bar due to Honest Guides on YouTube and we're so glad we went. There are a good range of drinks, we had beers and cocktails, for a good price. There are a good range of arcade games, most are 10czk and there is a machine to change notes into coins so you can play. There are coat hangers and lots of tables so you can relax in between games. We loved it here!

Superb night when came to this place. Loved the games on offer, had something for everyone and great drinks on offer. Location a little tucked away but when you find it, it’s worth it! Definitely a place to go to when in Prague for night out!

Place is hard to find and would require some updating. The bar area is ok but if you come here for the arcade, slightly dissapointed as they are not well maintain and 4 of 7 machine we tried were not working :( Good place to hang out but there are a lot much better place to unwind and drink or hang out in Prague so probably wont be coming back here in the near future.

Hi, yes we accept credit cards, but if you want to play games you will need some cash - games are for 10 CZK coins, you can get them on the bar but its not possible to pay by card for them.

Hello are children allowed in here? What is the nearest metro station please?
Written July 22, 2019
Hi, children are welcome! We are non-smoking bar, opening at 4PM, you can find some games for free there and we have a good selection of non-alcoholic lemonades ;-) Nearest metro station is Mustek, exit to Jindřišská street. Then find a yellow sign that reads "Jindřišská pasáž" and we are in the back of the pasage. Patrik
