Logan Arcade is the best arcade bar in the city. They have a great selection of beer that changes frequently. Their pinball machines are always well maintained. The atmosphere is the best due to all the pinball backglasses on the wall and all the random collectibles behind the bar. Just an awesome feeling athletically.Everyone is always super friendly. Their happy hour is a really good deal if you’re a beer person. Check it out on a Wednesday with the happy hour for free pinball and some good beer to go with it.

Best barcade in Chicago! Great selection of games, and if you havent already, play Killer Queen! Such a fun game, best played with a group. Some days its even free to play. And the Walking Dead game is lots of fun. Highly recommend.

A great arcade bar! The games take quarters so a lot easier then getting tokens. There is this really amazing Jurassic Park game but it quickly bites your money. Overall, I had a great experience here!

If you’re a fan of an old school arcade then this is your place. They have a decent bar with a few taps and a cool bartender. The classic pinball machines are awesome. You can usually play for as little a fifty cents. There’s not much else going on here. So it’s a good diversion if your in the neighborhood.

Had an incredibly fun time here, some of the games are even free! The games are all fairly priced alongside the drinks. They had someone spinning vinyl the entire night I was there. They also had a ton of loose vinyls for sale. Some of them gems fairly priced. And some of them priced at just a dollar! A fun bar for anyone who likes a bit of pinball or Pacman!

Great bar-cade, 10 player Killer Queen , Vec-9, Pac-man 4 player vs, Attack from Mars, Revenge from Mars, new Stern Beatles, adams family, Medieval Madness, the new Black Knight, ... Xenon! All on quarters, but all well maintained. Excellent place to spend multiple hours. Quarters up!

Place is still closed, if they dont want us, I dont want them. They need to stay out of the political crusade theyre pushing and stick to video games, but they dont know how to do that, hence why theyre not open.

Being from just outside Ann Arbor, I fondly remember the pinball parlours of the 70s and 80s: Mickey Rats, Focus, and Pinball Petes. Having lived on the Northside since the 90s, I also remember the old Logan Hardware. So I greatly enjoyed two layers of nostalgia when I walked through the doors last month.

Good beer selection, quite a crowd, good place with a courteous staff but - why is the largest room dedicated to pinball machines, aside from the other rooms with pinball machines in them? Cmonnn. Better game variety wins five stars!

You have to really look for this wonderful neighborhood bar and pinball escape! But once you find it...Enjoy! The atmosphere is wonderful and the bartender is full of neighborhood knowledge and she told us of a great local Mexican restaurant that was out of this world!

Great vibe! Much more laid back vibe than say, Emporium. They also are the only ones in Chicago to have Killer Queen! Its a sober dun/new 10 player game. Great beer list as well.

Excellent place for arcade and beer lovers!Wide selection of beer and liqour. The place hits you with its charm before even entering. It is full with probably many of your famous arcade games! Our favorite was the Pacman game which is played on a table like unit with up to four people.Also try Jurassic Park which is very dynamic, full of action and has cool gun feedback.Loved this place!

This is the best arcade in Chicago in terms of game selection. Their selection of machines is top notch, with more rare pinball machines than anywhere else I’ve been to in the city. Their drink prices are also pretty reasonable. The only reason for 4 stars is that a lot of the games are pricey. Sometimes I don’t mind paying the premium to play ($0.75 or $1.00 a play) but if I’m going to spend a full night here, that can add up quickly. I’ll usually come here, play 5 games of specialty pinball that I can’t find anywhere else in Chicago, and then bar hop to another arcade with $0.25 or free games. If the games here were all $0.50 a play, I’d never go anywhere else.

Fun place, with a wide array of games (focus is on games). Not to big or a bar selection. Definitely had some nastalgic moments.If you are looking to play games from childhood and have an adult beverage... Than this is a good place.If you want an expansive bar menu with games and a bit more of a hyped vibe.... I would check out the Beer arcade.

I come here to play one pinball machine and I refuse to disclose it in case it becomes someone elses favorite. I tend to spend $15-20 when I come here, but its a super chill environment, cool people, good games. My go-to spot with my partner.

Great selection of beer, great music, great selection of games. The only downside to this place is that you can expect to pay full price for their pinball machines. But I think youll get over it.

I love this bar.Draft list is solid, could use some more IPAs, but they have a huge selection of drafts and cans. Never had a cocktail, but its a thing people do, so yeah go for it I guess.But the drinks are not the reason to come here. Its pinball. They have all the latest tables, and usually the exclusive fancy versions of them too. They also have tons (possibly literally) of classic machines too.Pinball is not free here. Dont cry, get your change out. Most games are 75c to 100c depending, but theyre is a reason. They have the best, most, and in best condition machines. Im not hating on the token place or the free pinball bars, but those are bars first pinball second. This place caters to true pinheads.They also have a bunch of other coo games like the Japanese table flip game, giant Jurassic Park on rails shooting game, and some sit down fighter cabinets.Also, KILLER QUEEN! If you dont know, then Google it on your way over and bring your friends for some of the best 5v5 platforming battle games ever.They have pinball and killer queen leagues, open to all skills.

This was a great place with a great atmosphere. You kinda feel like you belong. Its casual and comfortable. I go with a pocket full of change so i can play arcade games. One can have a fun time and not break the bank. Its a bar, so what more can i say. THEY SERVE ALCOHOL. AND you can bring in your OWN food. You can customize your experience there. Its a must try, if you ask me. So... try it. Youll love it. I know youll go again and again.

Review №46

The variety of arcade games was on point. They had a good pinball selection as well as some old games I had never seen before.Im going to assume the funky smell permeating the entire back room was someone who may have had too much to drink. Overall, definitely worth the visit.

If you are a pinball freak, this is the place for you. plenty of vintage games plus many newer games. had a wonderful time there. Spent four hours there, drinking with my wife and our bar tab was less than 60 dollars. They dont serve food there, but encourage ordering from local places. Every time we have been there, there has been a guy that comes in with a couple of coolers full of tamales which are absolutely wonderful. The staff knows a great deal about pinball machines and two of the times we were there, Stern pinball had employees in Logan Arcade just hanging out. They were friendly and more than willing to talk about trends in pinball and robotics. This is a place for serious pinball players and for new players (who are always treated well and both the employees and patrons are willing to talk about pinball)

This place is exactly where you want to be. Amazing collection of vintage, indie, and sorry rare one off video games. Also their pinball collection is top notch, one of the few places to play limited edition of all the best machines.Staff are really nice, embrace the geek culture of the place, and know their beers/drinks.The crowd is definitely hip, but not in a bad way. There are definitely people there who take their pinball very seriously, but they are tempered by a lot of people who just want to have a few drinks and play some games.

So I have a new favorite are arcade game, killer queen. You WILL spend all your money on this machine so be prepared. A fast paced highly competitive team based game, you will get hours of excitement and fun from this game. Otherwise the environment of the bar is very welcoming the staff is kind. They also decorate for the seasons so thats nice as well.

Went on a Saturday and it was packed which is understandable. But the place reeked.. the bar is pretty small too. There were groups of people standing around. So I think this place would benefit from a couple tables. The arcade games were fun but that wasn’t the main reason I went.

This is my second favorite bar of all time, and thats coming from someone with a lot of lived experience. When I quit drinking, this spot was my go-to. Id see a movie then post-up at Logan Arcade afterward for some video games. They have a bunch of good NA options and if youre looking to drink, one of the most affordable and diverse beer selections in the neighborhood.

Came by with some friends on a monday night. It was perfect because only a few people was there. No wait on games. Most games cost 1 quarter but some cost 2 for newer ones. Pinball cost 3. The craft beer i got was good. This place had a bunch of different games, with some i never saw before. The only line was for a game called queen bee. Most games were working as well as the buttons and all. Parking was kind of a trouble but we found something close. We had alot of fun before we went out to eat. Would come back if i wasnt close to headquarters.

The Logan Arcade has reasonably priced drinks and a wide array of arcade games. From Twilight Zone to Game of Thrones the pinball machines run the gamut of contemporary and classic properties. A word of warning, the machines have prices on them but the machines dont always follow them. Theres also a selection of classic arcade games from PacMan to Street Fighter to modern offerings like the Walking Dead. Tons of fun. Just remember to bring a stack of quarters or dollar bills. The change machines can accept bills up to $20.
