You can park next door and Gionino's Pizza, do not park on the side with the laundry mat though. They also have a deal with Gionino's so if you want to eat you can bring a pizza from there into the bar.

They have Ms. Pac-Man speed version but not original pacman in a stand-up. There could be original pacman at the bar games. Only place I can't confirm if it's there.

Any Tekken arcade games?

Wes Dees | Oct 27, 2019
Cedrick Maximus | Oct 27, 2019

Yes I'm 100% certain they have Tekken. I just can't recall which one. And all the games are free play now if you didn't already know that.

do you have wwf wrestlefest?

Joshua Alcala | Oct 27, 2019
Tom Bentley | Oct 27, 2019

I believe I did see that there last night.

I'm aware that this is a bar, but can kids come here to play the arcade games? If so, what hours can they? I know that later hours at night in bars are when lots of people come to drink, so that's why I'd like to know.

We allow those who are under 21 into the bar until 8 pm. However, any one under 21 must be accompanied by a parent at all times.

How much does it cost to play the games? Do you pay individualy for each game or is it a one-time fee for all of them?

Edgar Perez | Oct 27, 2019
DK Effect | Oct 27, 2019

Hello! The games run on tokens. You get 10 tokens per pint of beer or cocktail and 5 per soda. You can also pay for tokens, 5 for $1. Our pinball machines are 75 cents a play or less depending on the machine. As a point of clarification regarding the other answer, we don’t serve food. We won’t until spring.

Does dk effect serve food, or should we eat before going?

Lalena Stamper | Oct 27, 2018
Bryan Lakatos | Oct 27, 2018

On weekends they sometimes have pizza, but they bring it in. If you like Mexican, I recommend Tacqueria Mixteca right across the street.

How much it cost

Alexis Hunt | Oct 27, 2018

Domestic beers are usually around $4-4.50...craft & import a little higher. Also have non-alcoholic, and I recommend the Warped Wing Draught Root Beer for your non-alcoholic needs...DELISH. You receive 10 game tokens with every alcoholic drink, 5 game tokens with non-alcoholic. You can also just purchase tokens, but its a better deal with drinks. DK Effect also has game & movie themed cocktails too..my fave is "The Slimer" named after the iconic green ghost in "Ghostbusters"...there is something there for everyone!
