Owner was super friendly and made the atmosphere comfortable and welcoming. The drinks were reasonable, and the pinball cards were affordable. You can play a good amount of games for not an insane price. The more you load onto the card, the more bonus credits you can get! They also had pool and skeeball, etc.
My entire family had an incredible time here! They have trivia on Thursday evenings which was why we attended. We have a lot of kids ranging in age from 5-12 and the arcade kept them busy while us adults got to enjoy the trivia game (and drinks ??) without our kids begging to leave, because they were having just as much fun as we were! Absolutely loved the trivia host, he was funny and made the game interactive with the audience which is a rare quality. If you know you know. The staff was so nice and welcom
Great local craft beer selection. Amazing pinball games and pool tables. Beautiful outside patio with axe throwing and tons of shade!
Fun arcade, pool tables, axe throwing in the summer. Great beer and alcohol selection on tap. Super friendly. Pool league.
Awesome spot! Loved taking my kid here to have fun and play some arcade games for a few hours. Plenty to do and the beer wall is an awesome plus
This place is such a hidden gem in Berthoud! It's got everything you need to entertain all members of the family and we bring guests here all the time. The drink and arcade games are reasonably priced and the garden is so nice in the evening. There's free activities like corn hole as well so you can really spend a long time and even get food if there's a food truck on. Definitely worth visiting regularly ??
What a treasure!! I'm so excited this opened in Berthoud. I came in with my five year old nephew on Saturday afternoon and was blown away. It is so fun. We did the arcade and games, but I can't wait to come back with a bigger group to take advantage of the cool outdoor space with yard games. There is a tap wall with lots of great drink options. The ax throwing wasn't open but looks great.
We absolutely love this place! They have so many different games and video games you can enjoy with friends or the family. A great selection of pour your own drinks! We will definitely will be regular customers!
B-Rad's is an awesome local, family-friendly go-to for us. We have two young children and we especially enjoy going there on warm Summer evenings when we can let our girls run around the backyard playing yard games while my wife and I enjoy a beverage. We're super glad to have such a fun place in our town!
B-Rads is such a fun place to have in Berthoud. I've hosted a private event here and it was a huge hit! My kids love dropping by for arcade games or a fun family night out. They host rotating food trucks and their patio is amazing!
Son and I had fun and the $25 I put on the card lasted awhile! Played lots of games multiple times. Very nice cozy outside area with axe throwing, jenga, corn hole. Beer taps was down when I went hope next time I'll get to try some ?? Good fun value with a good amount of space not crowded like Quarters arcade in Longmont.
We had our sons birthday party there it was amazing. The employees and ower were very nice and accommodating. Great beer selection. Pool tables pin ball air hockey racing games axe throwing and much more. The kids and adults all had a great time. 10/10 recommend.
This is a cool little arcade with games and drinks
We had a small birthday party here. The staff was very accommodating for our reservation. They let us move tables together, bring in food and be a little loud. There is a decent selection of beverages, and staff was helpful with the beer/wine wall. Arcade games run on a pre-paid card, so only the pool table needed quarters. Outside, they have large lawn games and axe throwing, including a plastic set for the kiddos. Fun place, would recommend.
A fun place to bring the kids, or be a kid yourself! The owner is super friendly and helpful. There is a great outdoor space with fun games!
This was my Dad's auto body shop (Mr. B's) for years. Kenny 'B' passed on after a very short retirement. He would have loved that families have a place to come and have fun together and the elders can enjoy a beer while watching the kids play. Thanks for keeping the 'B' in the name! You have fixed this place up unbelievably!
Fun place with a variety of fun for a group or family. Have a beer while your little one plays giant Connect Four. Have a wine while you play pinball. Beat your brother at air hockey or axe throwing. It's well priced family fun. There's a vending machine for snacks too.
Very cool old pinball style arcade in a vintage garage setting. Owner was so incredibly nice and welcoming- wall of beer taps, you buy a card for games or beer and can add as much money as you want for games
Ok guys just come check it out! This place was great, fun for all ages especially if you just let yourself have fun! I wish this page the best of luck, we've needed this and he answered!
We love this place!! Good selection of beer that you can try as much of or as little of as you can. Fun games and a delightful owner. All around great place for the whole family, date night, or even just to hang out alone. Dog friendly and kid friendly with food trucks and nearby local places to grab food to bring. Go check it out if you haven't already
Awesome local spot! We really appreciate that adults and kids can all have a good time. It's fun to be able to try a variety of drinks and everyone there (staff and other patrons) has always been extremely friendly.
What a great experience it was for my dad's 70th birthday and our first visit. We played pinball, threw axes and giggled and played arcade games with our toddler who also really enjoyed the indoor and outdoor activities. The staff is amazing, super helpful and accommodating and very responsive. We had so much fun! The food trucks are also amazing! This is a very fun experience for all ages and there are a lot of self-service options like being able to pour your own beer, or get a water... and good local r
Fantastic!! We met up with some friends and enjoyed our time!! We were here for 5.5 hours and it went by so quickly. Friendly service!! We will be back!!
I enjoyed everything about this place. One of my favorite features is the self taps offering mixed drinks and beer. There's plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Amazing atmosphere and environment, Well executed! I can't wait to go back!
An awesome Northern Colorado hidden gem! We had a great time throwing axes and playing arcade games. Looking forward to going back again soon!
Awesome Berthoud downtown spot for the family. Fun games and they have gaming cards instead of coins, which I prefer. Some outdoor space, drinks and well cared for arcade games.
This place is awesome! Reasonably priced beers and a decent selection of local beers. The arcade is fun for the kids, too. If you need a fun place to enjoy a child's birthday party and some frosty adult beverages, look no further.
This place is great. Went on Sunday with my little girls for a deal on unlimited game play and all day happy hour drinks. The staff are super awesome and helpful. They don't try to oversell you. Great selection of adult drinks and the beer garden out back is a super great place to chill. Bring the bigger kids and let them play while you enjoy relaxing out back.
Super fun, laid back arcade with frequent food trucks too! Great family environment and some of the latest and vintage pinball machines. They even have a nice pool table and DONKEY KONG! Highly recommend.
Fun little arcade in Berthoud Co. Unfortunately when we went both the basketball games were down and not working. Pool table was monopolized by 2 people so we never got to play. I liked the self-serve beverage bar. If I were the owners, I would consider adding 2 more pool tables and not letting people monopolize them for hours. Could be alot more fun In the summer when the back patio open!
Pinballs were in amazingly maintained! Great self serve drink options! Staff was friendly and helpful. I was initially leery that a "family" fun center would have pinballs in good working order (as a collector and former arcade owner, I know how hard this can be). I didn't encounter any issues and the games I played all were flawless, which is rare for even pinball bars to achieve! I appreciate they have a number of Stern Insider connected games.
We hosted our sons' birthday party here and it was phenomenal from start to finish. Loved by all ages (our boys are 7 and 11) from the kids to their parents and even grandparents. Staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Amazing, fun venue!
Pretty cool little place. Some old school arcade games, pinball games and skee ball and more. Has a nice outdoor area as well with chess and checker 3d life size games, axe throwing and gas fire pits. Self serve beer on tap. Decent selection and nice and cold.
What a fun spot! We came with 4 adults and 2 4-year-olds, and a great time was had by all. They have a fancy self-serve bar with a good selection of beers, plus wine and a couple of cocktails. We sampled a couple beers, the Twisted Tea, a margarita, and sangria. All were great. They have a vending machine with some snacks, and outside food is allowed. We brought takeout from Benny's Tacos down the street and enjoyed them on the large patio. It was a Monday night, and there were a few other parties there but
Cute place and nice people! Not all the machines worked and the skiball kept breaking and taking our money, but they did credit us back and we're nice about it. Very laid back environment.
Fun little arcade right here in Berthoud. Pinball and skeeball are our favorites. Nice outdoor place. Axe throwing too but we haven't done that yet. They also have pool tables. Son wishes the claw machines had better prizes. Pour your own beer is awesome. Often have food trucks. Could use more tables.
Soooo much fun for the whole family!! Will gladly spend time here any day! Indoor & outdoor fun. Beautiful patio. Retro inside. Delicious and fairly priced drinks. Paid inside ($20 went very far! Like four hours far..) arcade AND/OR fun free yard games outside. It was awesome. Even I loved the two sets of free plastic axe throwing! I want to shout out Emily who was working the front desk. I was by myself with 6 kiddos (My personal 3 & a friends 3.) It was my first time there. I wanted so badly to make the
This place has a lot of potential but it is chaos. Outside this place is trying to be way more than it has space for. 3 places to play cornhole but only the two courts that are jammed together are regulation distance. There is not enough room for cornhole in the area they have. They have little axe throwing stations, a big area for axe throwing, chess, jenga, and cornhole but only enough room for about half of that. There is a lot of seating outside but I think that takes away from the activities. The
Great new addition to Berthoud! Not a huge arcade but they have everything you'd want/ expect! The games are well priced, the beer tap system is such a cool feature, and the outdoor games are fun too! It is totally without it, but the addition of some beat games (ddr, rockband, piano tiles or a Japanese game) and perhaps some fun lights would make it perfect! It's a stop that you won't regret!
We had fun visiting this place although some of the service options are cumbersome. The back yard area has some options for smaller kids, but the open front door is very close to the roadway, so keep an eye out! We'll be back, simply for the fun atmosphere.
Good beer, good service. I like that they have a variety of food trucks come buy, it's a family friendly environment and is directed to far more than just the beer enthusiasts. Highly recommend checking this place out!
Our first time here and this place is awesome! Brings back childhood for sure and the beer wall was perfect! Great selection, we will be back!
Very friendly staff and owner. My son was struggling with emotions as we were getting ready to leave, and the owner went out of his way to make sure my son didn't leave the arcade feeling sad. I really appreciated his gesture.

Great selection of beers and games. Brought our two 10 and under kids in a few days after opening and had a blast. Will be back for sure - thank you for bringing this to Berthoud!
Should be 5 star. But the lady at reception was SO drunk. Kids had a blast, just don't like explaining a drunk women to a 9 year old. We arrived at 4:30 left at 8:30.
Great place! Lots of different games. It was to cold to do anything outside when we were there. We will be back when it warms up a bit.
Love hanging out at this place. Was never too big of a pinball fan until going here. And Margaritas on tap is a dream come true
We love having B-Rad's in town! Great place for families with all the classics and even some food trucks. Come challenge my high score at Ms. Pacman! Thanks Jonah!
Clean and family friendly. Can't wait to try out the ax throwing in the patio area.
Cool little place! I love their outdoor space. Beer wall is a cool feature. Fun place for a little town
Awesome place and a great deal on Sundays! All day happy hour and $15 unlimited play!
it the best arcade place and so fun to play ????????
Fun arcade with good draft beer
This place is amazing! So thankful for another small business coming to the community. Myself and my children have really enjoyed it.
Fun, affordable place to take the family and spend quality time. We will be back! Perfect place for a birthday party!!!
Really great little gem of a spot
Very cool spot. Neat self-serve drinks and cool arcade. We will be back.

Really fun!!! This was a great way to spend an hour!!!
Great place to hang out, even with the family!
Something for everyone!
Opening day. Lots of excitement.
I posted it was to hot inside, so owner bans me for it, refusing to reimburse $40 of points I had purchased that remains on my card. Shady looking employees. Drunks stumbling around billiards tables. No surprise this place is always empty.
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Yes, pinball tables in arcades remain a blast. Their hands-on, skill-driven gameplay delivers a thrill digital games can’t match, blending nostalgia with modern flair. Newer tables from Stern and Jersey Jack feature LCD screens and themes like Avengers or Stranger Things, keeping things exciting. Arcades are seeing a pinball resurgence with vibrant scenes and tournaments like IFPA events drawing crowds. Though less common than video games, pinball’s tactile charm and community vibe make it a standout arcade experience in 2025.
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
Yes, pool tables in arcades remain a fantastic draw in 2025! Games like 8-ball or 9-ball offer tactile, skill-based fun that blends strategy and precision. Modern tables feature smooth felt, responsive cues, and vibrant designs, enhancing the classic experience. Arcades foster a social vibe with casual matches or competitive tournaments, appealing to all skill levels. Unlike digital games, pool’s physicality—lining up shots, feeling the cue’s weight—keeps it timeless.
Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
