Aftershock Classic Arcade

Aftershock Classic Arcade is a games-first arcade bar in Madison focused on the greatest coin-op titles from the golden age of video games. The game room is built for both serious fans and casual players, and the bar side serves beer, original cocktails, pizza and fresh pretzels. The arcade traces its roots to 2000 and has run classic machines at bars, restaurants and shops across southern Wisconsin.

Visitors can come in for a few games or stay for a meal. The space is run as family friendly, safe and inclusive, and parking is available. It stays open late most nights, and the weekend schedule runs well past dinner. Events and fundraisers are a regular part of the business.
