We had eagerly planned a trip to Barcade while in New York. Beer and vintage arcade machines, what’s not to like! After walking 30 mins from our hotel especially to visit we were greeted by the doorman/security hunched over a chair in the doorway looking...at his phone. “ID” he said without looking up from his phone. At this point we realised one of our group had no ID and began to apologise. “Need ID” - doorman still hasn’t looked up from typing on his phone. We turned and left, he still didn’t look up from his phone. Had he, at any point, have bothered to look at us he would have realised he probably didn’t need ID, everyone in our party was late forties! I appreciate the need to check for under age drinking but this was stupid. Dejected, we walked up 7th Ave and spent a fantastic evening drinking in Yard House. The warm, enthusiastic greeting we received there could not have been more different to Barcade.More
