The Arcade Bar
Launceston goes retro
Do you often find yourself missing the 80s? Do you like pinball machines and old arcade games? When was the last time you saw a light up dance floor? Arcade Bar is the perfect place to indulge your nostalgia for all of these things, complete with disco ball and music to match.
Serving cocktails, beers and a limited bar snack menu, Arcade Bar is another unique Launceston offering on the bar scene. This space is lovingly decorated with all the 80s nostalgia you could ever want, from BMX bikes to boxy TVs and cassette tapes.
