This bar has an amazing vibe and appeals to all ages. The selection of games was very well thoughtout, they had all the names that would come to mind even if you weren't born in the 80s. It's quite big as well, there are several rooms on both floors full of machines. The staff are friendly, the deal is that you buy a beer along with some coins. Each game is $1. They even have a Mega drive with Sonic the Hedgehog at one of the tables. My only suggestion would be about having some more convenient places to put your beer while playing the games. That said many people just hang out at the tables around the bright lights and sound of the machines . Had a really amazing time. It's a great place to...
Fun bar with a nice twist (retro video games). Good selection of games, both video and board. The staff can seem a little 'try hard ' at times, not really offering much in the way of service, acting more like you 're hanging out at their home. The games are definitely the selling point. They also host a video game markets each year, which is great. Although it 's always so crowded during the event you don 't have much of a chance to browse the games on offer. Overall a fun bar to hang out at, have a beer and play a couple of throwback games. Good to follow on SM too, as they have events fairly often
With the selling point of arcade machines and games, this little bar did not disappoint. They also offer some craft beer on tap, but mostly in bottles/cans.<br/ <br/ We ordered the beef burger and chicken and bacon burger. Fries are perfectly cooked, and the burgers are simple but satisfying. My chicken burgee can use a bit more sauce as the chicken is slightly dry, but i liked it anyway. <br/ <br/ Beer is interesting and cocktails are simple and straight to the point. There are<br/ Many nostalgic boardgames and arcade machines. A bit of a walk from the station, but worth it. <br/ <br/
Have always loved 1989 for casual nights out with friends, but most recently hosted a work function where we hired the whole venue and it was a roaring success. Cannot speak highly enough of how straight forward and easy it was to arrange the event, including upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Ben at 1989 was also so accommodating when it came to specific needs for our group, covid postponements and all the rest and on the night the staff were fantastic. If you're looking for a party venue, 1989 is a great option!

Randomly walked in here when the trains at Newtown were cancelled to kill some time. Wow. What an amazing experience. Arcade games from back in the day and some really awesome pin ball machines. The pin ball machines even have drink holders on them so you can rest your beer while racking up the points. What a great time. Highly recommended for some beers and fun.
Amazing place, and fantastic game themed cocktails. Bring along your dollar coins for the arcade machines or chill with friends with the plethora of board games provided. Fun retro atmosphere feels more like a friends house party in their garage, googly recommended experience. Bookings are essential for groups.
enjoyed the cocktails, large selection of craft beers, atmosphere, and the food! had a salad for dinner that was surprisingly amazing and is now one of my favourite meals on king stwould definitely go back
Loved the vibe and the super cool retro arcade games that bring up great memories. The staff were real cool and chilled. It was a lot of fun playing these old games and brought back memories.
