Pixels Bar + Arcade

Pixels Bar + Arcade is a retro arcade bar on Bluestone Crossing Road in Rolesville, with more than thirty arcade and pinball machines on the floor. Signature cocktails come from the bar, and the kitchen puts its own spin on familiar bar food.

The owner built the place around his own childhood, when birthdays and weekends were spent in arcades, and set out to recreate that joy for kids and adults alike. The result is a room pitched at both at once, with the games out front and the food and drinks running alongside.
