Love love love Tilted. The location is great as it's right downtown and I love coming here to shoot pool, drink, and play an occasional pinball game. All the staff are lovely, friendly, and truly create a great atmosphere. They are always finding new ways to change their drink menu while keeping the usuals on hand too. Special thanks for keeping prices reasonable! They recently re-felted their pool tables which has made playing even better and you can always count on their coin-op games being in great con
Nice little barcade with a decent selection of classic arcade games and pinball machines. The big knock against it, is the games are not free to play. The money is in the booze and not the quarter to play games. They should visit either The last Level in Fenton or the 16-bit chain in Ohio and emulate what they are doing.
Great place to get drunk and play games. Needs more multiplayer games. Some shooters would be great too. Plenty of classics, and pinball machines. 2 pool tables to kill time without constantly feeding the machines. Bathrooms are downstairs which is a bit of a pain, but a nice area to take a break from the noise. Good local beers, full bar, simple but good menu. Overall, great place for a night out. Clean environment, awesome staff, quick machine repair. We had a great night and intend to go back soon!
I wish their were more places like this around! My husband and I had so much fun. The drinks are so cheap. We didn't try food though. I would highly recommend checking out thus Gem!
They closed early because of lack of business. I'm sorry your drinks aren't as good as next door. Half of the arcade machines were turned off an hour before close. Some joysticks didn't work either.
they only have baked pretzels and chips but it's a good drinking spot! drinks are a little pricey for what it is but alot of fun...
Fun comfortable spot. Good price on drinks with a great beer selection. Tons of cool pinball machines and most of my favorite classic arcade games. If you're visiting Jackson you must stop by.
We celebrated a birthday last Saturday night. It was a great time! The owners are really great and friendly! We played pinball, and there is a couple of pool tables! There are so many pinball machines some new and some old school!! It's a nice, fun place to go and have fun! You can tell the owners take pride in their business!!
Plenty of games available. There was always a game to play without a wait even when it got a little busy. How can you go wrong for unlimited play all day for $20
Stopped in for a few drinks and to shoot some pool. Good tables and equipment. Drinks were tasty as well!
They are closed. Nothing post about being closed on any website. Looks like a coney dog tonight. (7/7/21 Edit: They have reopened. We will try to visit again)
It is an awesome family place! We enjoyed it very much!! Great service too at the bar!!
Fun arcade with good drink prices
Tilted Arcade Bar is a new entertainment venue in downtown Jackson. it offers several old school and modern pinball machines (20 or so, maybe more - my favorite was easily the Deer Hunting one, and The Avengers), and some classic old school arcade games. They have a nice setup. Very clean, not cramped feeling. A large bar with a very large flat screen TV. They have two billiard tables and several areas to just mingle with friends with a drink between hitting the pinball tables. They have a limited menu i
Visited this location for the first time tonight. They have 2 pool tables and a wide variety of old school arcade games. If you like sweet mixed drinks, ask for their "kool-aid." You won't taste any alcohol, but man... It will get you to where you want to be.
Wonderful place. Pinball is wonderful and it's amazing that it's making a come back. Such a difficult game to actually be good at. I'm leaving one star off because some of the machines need work. There are quite a few classic pinball machines at this location that are on their last leg and really need some love. Response edit: The ones I can remember are Nascar(the worst i could remember) and Monopoly.
Was an awsome place to go. If you are a fan of pinball. This is the place for you. Can have fun, have a couple drinks, and hang with friends. Its aimed a bit more towards adults cause its considered a bar. But can bring kids to have fun as well. Will definitely go again when back in town.
Great place to drink and have some fun. It would be nice if they had more games, it's mostly pinball, but still A LOT of fun!!
This is an absolutely superb establishment from top to bottom. The video games and pinball machines are EXTREMELY well maintained and fairly priced, the bar staff is incredibly friendly/helpful, the atmosphere is superb, and the food is great. A fun place for the family during the day and the perfect getaway to relax and hang out in at night.
Nice little place to have fun and play a game or two. The owner and his wife are very nice!
Several selections for old school arcade games and a fun atmosphere. The games are cheap. The only reason I won't give 5 stars is because I felt like it was basically a pinball bar. Which is fine if that's what you're into. Was just hoping for more gaming options.
We've needed a place like this for a long time! Friendly staff, fun games and a good time! I Highly recommend checking Tilted Arcade Bar out! Prices are very reasonable and it's very clean! We can't wait to go back!
Wow! Great selection of games in a clean environment. Friendly staff and great management. They even have cup holders for your beer next to the pinball machines. I will go again when I'm in the area!!!!
Awesome bar, definitely my favorite in the neighborhood :) I love how the arcade games are so cheaply priced. It's like stepping back into the 80s. They also have a highly accommodating and friendly staff.
Lots of games and the environment was clean, calm and rather family friendly. I would have liked more variety on tap, but the concept is fantastic. I played double dragon and TMNT. Really took me back in time.
Friends & I frequent this bar at least once or twice a week and it's always been such a fun experience. Every bartender is friendly and quick & Jason specifically makes our visits there more enjoyable ?? so thankful to have such a cool place to hangout.
I have lived in Jackson for 8 months and finally made it downtown and this is a super cool place to hang out with awesome old school arcade games and pinball tournaments.
If you like pinball machines and old school stand up video games, definitely a place to check out. They also have two pool tables and a full bar.
This is a really good arcade bar for Jackson. There are a lot of pinball machines and retro games to play. there is a full bar for those of us who like to slim a few down while playing donkey Kong. Other bars in other cities that are similar to this have free game play for all video games except for pinballz as long as the person is ordering from the bar. All of these games require quarters to play. That is the only downside that I see to tilted. kids are allowed to join in the game play up until 9 p.m. w
Great selection of pinball machines, arcade games, and other niche games. Beers are reasonably priced too. Great atmosphere, very clean environment. This will be one of the main reasons I go downtown anymore ??
Laid back environment and the game choices really take me back to the good ol' days. Nice location near other good spots like Chase bar and Dirty Bird. Jackson down town is looking much better.
I love downtown Jackson and had high hopes when I learned an arcade bar was opening, but unfortunately it just hasn't lived up to my expectations. All other arcade bars I've visited provide gameplay tokens with the purchase of food/drink, while Tilted requires you to spend additional money using quarters. Further, they don't provide free tap water and instead require the purchase of bottled water. I feel this is greedy at best and irresponsible at worst, especially since they primarily serve alcohol. I wish
Finally got a chance to try this place out last night with a friend, and it did not dissapoint. Lively and fun atmosphere, good prices, and the arcade and pinball was so fun you can spend hours here (and a lot of quarters).
Absolutely amazing place! CHEAP DRINKS! Fun retro games! 50 cents for most games and a really sweet atmosphere! This will be a regular hang out for myself!
Fantastic atmosphere, friendly staff, and great drinks! Amazing place to unwind, combining all the best elements of an old school arcade and and a modern bar... 5 Stars!
Drinks are fairly priced, great service, pinball machines were well maintained!!! Defiently highly recommend! We will be back! Playboy was awesome!
So happy We have somewhere to go after dinner! Got some drinks, played some games it was super fun! Good variety of different games plus a pool table.
3 stars because the bartender was drunk and not very friendly. He gave me the wrong drink and I tried to correct him but he ignored me. Other than that the games were fun!
If I could give 0 stars, i would. Apparently, there's a law at this place that you can't put your head in your hands because you're tired or not feeling well. "Everyone must have their heads up and everything is okay" is what an employee said. Two thumbs down. Would never go there again.
Randomly stop in, from out of state was treated so well while I was there, by the staff and owners.
Cool bar that has a lot of old pinball and other arcade games in it. Prices to play the games aren't through the roof either.
Great spot for pinball. Nice staff. Worth the drive.
Who doesn't want to enjoy a beer while you get to play arcade games? Of course I'm giving 5 stars, we had a blast!
Brought my husband here as one of the surprise steps for his birthday adventure. Super cool atmosphere and a lot of options for games!!
Fun atmosphere. I would love to see some other classic arcade games. Gets really crowded on weekends so prepare yourself.
Great drinks, friendly staff and the games are so much fun! Check this place out!
Always have a fun time when I come here! Great staff who make good drinks (:
Pretty neat new place in Jackson. The arcade selection is limited, but there's a lot of pinball. Pretty awesome for Jackson, and good prices.
The place to be! Amazing if you want to enjoy a drink but also take your kids to have fun!
Never cared for Pin ball till I started coming to Tilted. I love the TMNT arcade game and the new TMNT pinball game as well as Ghostbusters pinball
Awesome place. A must for any true pinballers. Many old classics as well as the latest.
The pinball was cool, but the people playing pool kept bumping into me while I was in the middle of my arcade game. The pool tables should go.
I like the FROGGER drink!! Super fun spot to meet friends
1980's vibe and great beer selections. Honestly, who doesn't like pinball and beer in one building? I know I do!!
Fun place, can get really packed at times, would be cool to see it expand somehow in the future.
This place is cool! Brings me back to the old days of arcades but with alcohol!
Really wanted to love this arcade but the bartenders were so rude. Played a couple pinball machines to salvage the night but won't be returning
Blast from the past! Lots of great video games with drinks to match. Diversified crowd for everyone!
Tilted is a place where it is always fun to hang out at but only a hand full of people like to hang out at?
Awesome atmosphere! And the owners are wonderful people!
Very fun place, brings back alote of good memories. Very good atmosphere.
Great pinball selection! Good drink prices too!
