Cocktails and consoles

If classic consoles, craft beer and cocktails are your thing, then retro arcade bar NQ64 is for you. The ultimate nostalgia blast, NQ64 is packed with retro-gaming goodies. Whether you are into the SNES, MegaDrive, Gamecube or PlayStation, or want to show off your Pac-Man, Mario Kart, Guitar Hero or Time Crisis skills this bar is for you.

You can button bash to your heart’s content on the bar’s gaming consoles for free or load up on tokens and have a go on NQ64’s retro arcades and pinball machines.

Since the first venue opened in Manchester in 2019, NQ64 has expanded massively and has launched in sites in Birmingham, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Newcastle, and Liverpool. And now it’s come to London’s historic Soho.

The bar offers a nostalgic blend of retro gaming, hip-hop beats, and bespoke cocktails - and the party goes on well into the night, too, with NQ64 opening until 3am Monday to Saturday, and 12am on Sundays.

The bar itself is a neon-filled delight, complete with spray paint artwork that covers the walls and glows under UV lights. NQ64 really is an unmistakable, unique attraction for partygoers in the capital, bringing video game nostalgia into the heart of Soho.
