1Up Arcade Bar- Farmington

Cool venue to celebrate a birthday! We had my husband and daughter’s 2nd birthday party here and wow! What a fantastic venue to have a party. We have been here for date nights and decided to rent it out for our party. They were super accommodating, friendly and communicative throughout the whole process. The bartender, Zachariah was very attentive and helpful before and during our event. They allowed us to set up our own decorations and food as well. The games were fun, the drinks were yummy and kids and adults alike had a great time. Very entertaining atmosphere with something to do for everyone. Thanks for a great event!

Really awesome barcade in Farmington. The staff are really friendly and helpful with the drinks and games. The bar makes cocktails and has a great selection of rotating beers in tap and in cans. The bartender let us try a lot of the beers on tap before we ordered. There is a good mix and selection of arcade games. There is pinball, air hockey, shooters, party games, and some classics. They do tabletop games and card games and have weekly tournaments. Highly recommend 1UP, will absolutely be coming back.

Fantastic place to go to play some pinball and have drinks. Bartenders are fast and friendly and the place has a great vibe. Kinda like pinball Pete's in Ann arbor but not as big. Really cool decor Donkey Kong barrel tables, Pac Man wall and great mixed drinks named after video games. Parking can be tricky because it's downtown Farmington. If you go around the back there is an alley. Go a little ways past the arcade and on the left is a empty parking lot. Everyone's chicken to park there because there are tow signs everywhere. If you're go at night they won't tow you. Have fun

Fun little place to stop in. I love the classic games and the bar area. Most games are between 2-4 quarters. Classic games like Galaga, Ms. Pac Man, basketball game (which the 2 player feature didn’t work), mortal combat, shooting games etc. The drink menu for the bar is online ONLY. So if you can’t connect to the WiFi or don’t have a phone. You won’t be ordering a drink. Because the bartenders are no help. I would suggest to keep a few little paper menus behind the bar for these type of situations. We wasn’t feeling any of the drinks. But we had a few of the $4 shots. Which were really good. We seen a lot of people ordering the frozen drinks. Which someone said they were pretty good. We will try those next time. You also get 1 free coin per drink that you order. They also have these delicious peanuts at the bar that you can ask for (free). This arcade is not big but they have great music and little table and chairs you can sit at to talk and drink. Cool atmosphere.

We went after dinner strictly for the games and felt like a teenager in the arcade. I love the table games they have set out from playing cards, to board games to rock em sock em boxing! They even had a live musician that kept the vibe real inviting and chill. Not a huge spot but great for small social groups to couples night out. Definitely will revisit.

Great place to hang out with friends. The Pac Man bar wall is pretty cool to see in person. They have pin ball machines, mini hoops, air hockey, hunting games, car games and even a photo booth! Staff was awesome and very accommodating. Only thing I thought they could have better was their one hole restroom for everyone.

Fun place to hang out for a bit. Try the Diddy Kong drink. Peanut butter whiskey, banana pudding liqueur, Frangelico, and cream then topped with candied peanuts. You get tokens with your purchase and can buy more. Use those to play the various arcade games. Pinball and Space Invaders were a lot of fun. But they have air hockey and basketball games. Just a bit of everything. Great spot in downtown Farmington.

Open concept with creative and tasty mixed drinks or draft craft beers, local favorites with nostalgic games that pull you in. Jenga!, Karaoke, Live music on the weekends, Zach and Perry will 1 up your lifestyle. Fast and friendly service. A smile goes a long way, and so does the staff.
