Reboot Arcade Bar
About This Spot
Walking into Reboot Arcade Bar, you immediately step into a space where nostalgia and community intertwine effortlessly. The hum of vintage pinball machines and classic arcade games fills the air, inviting both playful competition and simple, unhurried enjoyment. There’s a warm, approachable energy here—an atmosphere that strikes a perfect balance between lively and laid-back, where friends gather to laugh over shared memories or make new ones in the glow of neon lights.
At its core, Reboot feels like a local treasure tucked into Winston-Salem’s creative heartbeat. It’s more than just a spot for a casual drink; it’s a place where art and human connection seem to naturally bloom. The bar’s commitment to supporting local artists adds a personal touch to the surroundings, with rotating displays that spark conversation and deepen the sense of neighborhood pride.
On any given night, whether you’re sinking into a well-crafted beer or daring your friends for a round of Tekken Tag Tournament, the focus is on enjoyment paced by genuine moments rather than rush. The soundtrack blends seamlessly with the buzz of excitement from the games and the low hum of easy conversations. Special nights like karaoke bring out even more of the welcoming spirit here, turning strangers into companions over shared songs and stories.
Reboot Arcade Bar captures a particular kind of charm — the kind that invites you to linger, reconnect, and savor the simple joy of good drinks, nostalgic games, and the kind of company that makes any visit feel like coming home.

Update: Ian and the whole crew here have been so kind. They let me display my art and it has been such a wonderful experience. Come have a Smurf or Tequila Sunrise, play your favorite games, and enjoy some art. It's a fun place to go have drinks with friends and play some old school video and pinball games. They're also very supportive of the local art community in Winston-Salem.

If pinball is your jam & beers are what you slam. Drive on down to Reboot Arcade to enjoy what the hipsters made.

Absolutely love this arcade bar! I still can’t believe they have Tekken Tag Tournament. Great drinks and music. Perfect place for a date/meet up with friends. Bring quarters and dollar bills to play games.

I love coming here to see my fav bartender Lexi and definitely always come to their karaoke nights every Sunday! Fun chill atmosphere with great drinks and great people and music. Games are fun too :) I always make it a point to stop by when I come back to Winston, definitely stop by if you can!
